Thanks for your help - it might be worth deleting the Account and I can start from scratch since I have had no joy again eralier this evening.

Done so you can try again

Still struggling - repeatedly getting an error message "You have specified an incorrect username. Please check your username and try again. If you continue to have problems please contact the Board Administrator."
I have tried both e-mail address and geocaching name as the username and have tried a password reset without joy. Not sure what I am doing wrong.
The username is The Brat Pack with spaces I don't have access to passwords but you can use the forgotten password option if you have no luck I will delete the account and you can try registering again .

The opening of a South Wales Geocaching Forum was mentioned quite a few times in the South Wales Geocaching Facebook site but you obviously missed it. If you do a search you will see a number of posts at the beginning of February. Unfortunately it is not being used as the Face group is much more popular which I think is happening to a number of regional forums.

Edited as I had missed a word out
Thanks - found it. Facebook postings seem so ephemeral - if you don't go on for a few days you can miss what is happening. I have tried to use it over the past two days but am having an issue logging on to the new Forum. I have e-mailed the Administrator to see what the issue is. Could just be me being dumb!
I am sorry that there was 1 and a half hours gap between you registering and the activation of your account but there was a good reason for that. You emailed me at 2100 hrs last night asking if there was a problem I checked and replied at 2108 hrs that as far as I could see there were no problems. I have no access to password data so I am unable to even attempt to log on using your details but the 2 accounts I have (admin and personal) are both working fine. I have checked again this morning and I was able to log in again without problems. Can I suggest you check you are entering the password correctly and if that continues to be a problem that you request a password reset using the forgotten password link or try resending the confirmation email.

Thats a bit like a series of "puzzle" caches in the Swindon area that can only be logged if you have the requisite number of finds on certain cache types , I found all the caches as part of a team that had the necessary qualifications but I did not
.Also it looks like the powers to be are on the case according to a note from the cache owner

Can a mod please lock this so I can crawl back under my rock ?

p.s read my signature it is aimed at people like you .
You don't know me at all, so you can't possibly know what I'm like.
No need to take offence at gentle humour. Seems like you are the one taking things too seriously.
Why did you feel the need to post twice about one post ?
Do you see what I did there ?

And you don't seem to be aware of something called sarcasm, it is a relatively new phenomenon

Ohhhhh, I see.
Those danged commas. Troublemakers, they are.
I am sorry you were unaware that I was replying to Lucilla and not naming the cacher concerned , I promise to PM you and tell you the back story and my reason for posting next time.

There were archived by the user not a reviewer, Lucilla. It turns out it is a personal guideline that the setter has applied . If he has to replace the container more than twice he is archiving them, which is a shame as his hides are very innovative
edited for the grammar police, I was tempted to add a spelling mistake but was concerned that I may cause offence to error free posters
-
Anyone know what the new guidelines are ?
-
Yes. Its your typical swivel belt clip. You will notice a piece of plastic peaking out from the top of the clip? That is the release button to remove the clip from the holder.
Thank You I did think that but wanted confirmation
A removal belt clip is the one thing I miss from my old 60Csx so I will order one tomorrow .

This can be locked now both have gone to a good home

Both Unactivated open to trades for interesting coins or cash

I would just like to Thank Martin for his efforts and am happy to report he has found the cause of the problems I have been having getting the new OS style maps to work on my Garmin GPSmap 62st
I will leave Martin explain what was happening it was not a fault with the maps but with the way the GPSr handles the maps

Most odd, however I'm just compiling a non-routable British-Isles+Contours mapset with the OS 1:50K look and feel, maybe it is the routing that is causing your 62 to lock up? Fancy trying it out?
Regards,
Martin
Yes Please

That's why I asked if you had the latest firmware, as some of the earlier version of the Montana, GPSMap62 and Etrex 20/30 firmware had problems with some maps. I have not had any reports from Oregon or Colorado users about issues. My own Oregon 200 loads them fine.
I wonder what the cause is?
Regards,
Martin
I have even tried downloading the file with a different browser in case IE was doing something nasty and still no go ....works fine on my 60Csx backup though
-
Yes, just like the original maps, just unzip the IMG file, rename as required and then drop it in to the GARMIN folder on the GPSrs internal memory or SD/MicroSD card. It should then work.
Regards,
Martin
Phew thats OK then ....but sadly still not working it gets as far as the loading maps screen and freezes only way to do anything is to remove the batteries then plug in the usb lead with the down arrow button depressed for 30 seconds and force it into mass storage and delete the file
. -
Martin at the risk of not only looking stupid but also sounding stupid am I right in thinkng that I can just drop the .img file straight onto the SD card (or the 62st itself) like I did with the old maps
? -
Still cannot get it to work on my 62st
I hate to ask this, but do you have the latest firmware installed?
Regards,
Martin
yes that was the first thing I checked
-
Still cannot get it to work on my 62st

I can't get them to work with my GPSMAP 62st
It gets to the loading maps screen and freezes
All I did was install it in the same way as I have installed the previous versions .
