  1. I've got an Axim X50v which I've loved using for taking the cache pages along paperlessly. The idea of putting a GPS receiver and software in it is very attractive. Thanks for pointing me to the BC-337 and BeelineGPS - they look great. Do you also use your Axim for turn-by-turn driving? If so, what software do you use or recommend?
  2. Thanks - I just tried in Firefox and it works! Also verified IE still has the same problem.
  3. I've tried this both with a route I created in Google Earth, and, with public routes (including the route of the day). When I click on 'Create Pocket Query' IE displays a message box " Internet Explorer can not open the Internet site http://www.geocaching.com/pocket/urquery.a...70-2e94bca57d23. Operation aborted" on hitting "ok" the "Internet Explorer cannot display the webpage..." page. I'd like to be able to create such a query for a road trip I'm taking Friday. Help please.
  4. Is there a way to view my own gallery similar to how I can view other peoples' galleries?
  5. Never Mind - I figured it out. Isn't there a delete for messages like this?
  6. The ability to put check marks next to a number of caches found in a search and have them download as a single file is real nice. However, it seems this will only download .loc file format. I can go to each cache page and download a .gpx, but, this is more effort. Is it possible to set the download format preference to .gpx?
  7. Thanks for the suggestion. It had been awhile since I'd run my adware and Spybot programs. Both found a few more spyware programs had snuck in. Unfortunately this didn't do anything for fixing the photos not displaying problem. Yes, I am using IE.
  8. I've uploaded several photos and am able to view them sometimes but not other times. I have also had problems viewing other peoples' photos, but, not always. Any suggestions as to what might be wrong? For example, we went to the Stillwater Surprise cache yesterday and I posted several photos. When I go to it now, the thumbnails show, but, the larger image does not. Clicking 'next' or 'previous' changes the name of the photo that should be displayed, but, still no image and clicking 'edit' takes me to the edit page but displays no image. Here's the link to these photos: http://www.geocaching.com/seek/log.aspx?II...bfe&LID=6062981 On the other hand, photos with TB pages or that I've uploaded with TB's usually show up fine. Here are a couple links: http://img.Groundspeak.com/track/log/fac3e...023c006a276.jpg http://www.geocaching.com/track/details.as...ad-d15e317f5521 Help!
  9. Agreed. Get the cable and GSAK. It's very easy to up and download waypoint (cache) location information. Much better than entering it manually. Since your unit won't support downloaded maps, there is no reason to buy Mapsource. I have it so I can download detailed maps to my eTrex Legend, but, I use GSAK for downloading cache info from geocaching.com. When you go to any of the cache pages, you'll see links to download .loc data, or on the search results page, you'll see the check boxes to the right of each cache so you can check off a number of them you are interested in and download a .loc file. When geocaching.com downloads this to your computer, just select "open" and GSAK will launch and prompt you to load them to it's database. Then under it's GPS menu, select "Send Waypoints" and, voila, all the work is done! As for maps, at the bottom of each cache page are links to all sorts of maps. I mostly click on Rand McNally for road maps, Topozone for topographical maps, and Terraserver for aerial photographs, each comes up centered on the cache site and allows you to do some zooming. It's all available to you free.
