  1. Around the end of last year, I bought a Mac Mini for a new desktop, switching from Windows.  I knew there would be some roughness switching over when it came to uploading my PQs to my Garmin eTrex 10... but nothing like I've been dealing with.  I'm not sure if I did something wrong on the first try to upload to the device, but I've been having "low memory" issues since I first uploaded using the Mac.  I was able to use it for my first run of 2018, although the device would not record if I found the cache or not saying that there was low memory issues.  Since then, I have been unable to upload anything to the device no matter how much I try.  It finally got to the point where I went ahead and just did a factory reset to clear everything out... but after I did that, not even 30 seconds after I turned the device back on, I got a "low memory" message again!  I turned back on my Windows laptop and used my old software and such, but still had the same issues.  I've looked in the folder of the device and I don't see anything that could be causing this.  Does anybody know what is causing this and what I can do to resolve it so I can use my device for geocaching again?

  2. Anybody have any reviews on Cachly for a casual user? Was geocaching with a buddy of mine last weekend and he doesn't go out that often, but likes to go out with me whenever I visit... but he couldn't do anything because of the new app and he wasn't a premium member. Because of how he doesn't cache often, pointless for him to become a premium member at that point, but he does like doing the occasional one here and there and kind of left a dark cloud on our trip last weekend when he couldn't do anything. I'm trying to find something for him so he can keep caching!

  3. First time I've used the boards on here, but I got a bit of a question with my Garmin eTrex 10...

     

    I love the device since I've gotten it, but my EasyGPS program hasn't. It crashes everytime I upload a pocket query to the device. Recently, I uploaded my local PQ to it and noticed it only upload part of it to the device as I went out to do a couple quick caches before dinner. It's left me to worry on if it's even properly uploading the whole PQ to the device. Does anybody know why EasyGPS is not cooperating with my device? Should I try another program, if so... what does everybody suggest? I'd rather have a flawless upload and to know the whole PQ is on the device before I head out, especially if I head out on a long road trip away from my desktop.

     

    Thanks for the help!

  4. I'm having the same issues. I'm hoping this gets corrected soon because I'm about to head down to the Gulf Coast of Mississippi for a few days and I want to load a bunch of caches in the surrounding spot from where I'll be staying. If I don't, I'll have to rely on my iPhone alot more than I wanted to... rather stick with my Garmin GPS.
