[Transfer GPS-Files from iPad to Garmin Dakota 20]

I love the cartoon about spending to much effort/time to recover a small amount of time. Saved it and may post it on facebook. I can be guilty of that. I doubt the bluetooth will help his situation. The iOS system maintains strict control of what gets on devices no matter what the method of connection.

You never mentioned what phone you have androids can download PQs to the Garmin. I have an iPad and Galaxy phone and finally surrendered and bought a cheap $275 Acer netbook to handle my caching needs when traveling. If the iPad wasn't such a fine device I would dump it for a Galaxy tablet but just can't seem to go there.

 

I have a Galaxy S2. Can you tell me how I get the pocket queries down to my Garmin? I just opened the geocaching.com App and opend one of my pocket queries - but how do I get them to the Garmin?

Thanks for all your replies. I will use pocket queries and for the caches that come within reach during travelling I do not have in my query I will use my mobil phone - sometimes during travelling I just end up at places I haven't planned at home. I just thought there might be an easy way to conntect the two devices - well there isn't.

The methods are not complex, but the number of variables involved can seem that way.

 

First things first: In what form and in what app do you have this GPX file on your iPad? Is it just waypoint and geocaches, or other GPX data also? Are you wanting to do this transfer "in the field" -- or at home with other computing and network resources available?

 

I would like to take my iPad with me while travelling and want to transfer "in the field" as you say. I would like to go to geocaching.com click on one of the "gpx-send-file-buttons" and transfer the gpx somehow to my garmin.

 

Thanks for your help.
