  1. Here's another soon to be Mac program: CacheKeeper http://www.geocache.aviate.org/
  2. Little update of Mac software list: the link for GPSbabel of all flavors is: http://www.gpsbabel.org
  3. I been really trying to dig around and find all the Mac GPS software out there (paricularly OS X native) and here's what I've come up with: (NOTE: some of this I've used and some I haven't. For the one's I haven't used my synopsis of features might be a bit off but hopefully I'm not too far off). Feel free to add any I've missed! ________________ GPS Connect- (Free/donate) Upload/download waypoints and routes to many models of GPSr. (**I have used this in the past: It's okay but the waypoint doesn't load with the geocache "chest" symbol) http://www.chimoosoft.com/gpsconnect.html Link2GPS- ($12 by itself or $25 bundled with TopoDraw and gpsWrite) Upload and download of waypoints and routes. (**I'm currently using this as a program as a trial- It does use the geocache symbol on uploaded geocaching waypoints on GPSr :-) http://www.hiketech.com MacGPSbabel- (Free/donate) Can convert many file formats to many other file formats. Upload and download to many GPSr http://sourceforge.net/project/showfiles.php?group_id=58972 Magellan Waypoint Manager- (Free/donate) Magellan specific upload and download of waypoints http://www.studiosoich.com/MWM.html MacSimpleGPS- (Free/donate) for use with LOC files uploading and downloading to GPSr http://www.macsimplegps.com Terrabrowser- (Free/donate) Manually input a coord to see on terraserver aerial photo and/or topo maps. (**I've used this program may times: It's okay but it almost never loads all the panels of the photos/maps. It is very useful to find coords for points to calibrate park maps for use in other mapping programs like MacGPSpro or TopoDraw) http://www.chimoosoft.com/terrabrowser.html TopoDraw- ($12 by itself or $25 bundled with Link2GPS and gpsWrite) Shows waypoints and routes on top of maps (you have to calibrate a map or load one already calibrated by someone else because it doesn't come with any). Must use Link2GPS to download/upload GPSr waypoints and routes. (**I did successfully calibate a map with this program but could not figure out how to load a map calibrated by someone else for ExpertGPS) http://www.hiketech.com MacGPSpro- ($39) Upload and download waypoints and routes to/from GPSr and show on topo maps (you have to load maps from various sources because it doesn't come with any). (**I bought this program but didn't figure out how to load maps and gave up- needs better documentation but you can often get answers via email) http://www.macgpspro.com GPSy (must use Classic mode)- (GPSy is Free, but Pro is $50) Shows realtime data if connected to GPSr. Can load maps from various sources. Upload/download waypoints and routes. Text-to-speech of navigation data. Plus other features. Improved nautical stuff in Pro version. (**I haven't used this) http://www.gpsy.com Route66 USA for Mac- ($39) Can plot position realtime when connected to GPSr. Very detailed road maps. Upload and download waypoints and routes to GPSr. (**I haven't used this myself but I've heard it takes up A LOT of room on the hard drive- Gigabytes) http://www.66.com/route66 National Geographic State TOPOs- ($99 per state) Upload and download waypoints and routes to/from GPSr and show on their own detailed topo maps. http://www.ngmapstore.com/shopping/product...&iProductID=346 CacheMate- ($7) Have a Palm and want to go paperless? This'll do it. (**This is what I use and recommend) http://www.smittyware.com/palm/cachemate/ MacCMConvert- (Free/donate) Converts GPX files to Upload to PDA and use with CacheMate. (**This is what I use and recommend) http://www.jfatherton.co.uk/MacCMConvert
