Checked this morning and they are all still there! YES!

Been researching more tonight and found this topic... http://forums.Groundspeak.com/GC/index.php?showtopic=289296 I created a pocket query and there they were....I have over 500 on there! Not really sure how they work and I don't really want that many, I like the idea of picking the ones I want to do rather than every single one within a 10 miles radius, but the main thing is I have got the caches on the device. Will wait till morning though before I get too excited as last time I thought I had them they disappeared by morning! Thanks for all your help! Nina

There is no trash folder on the gps :/

I am still having problems. Getting really upset with it now. No one seems to know what the problem is.

They are not far from me. The weirdest thing is they were showing up the night before!? The whole list...and then by morning, gone. Weird.

Doesn't seem to work on Mac. I tried to load it and it just opens up a text page of DOS!? Any other ideas?

I will do some investigating....thank you!

Hello! I got a Magellan eXplorist GC for my birthday last July. Having a Mac I had to quickly learn to download the GPX files to install the geocaches on the device. This has been working fine for months. Yesterday, we decided to go on our first Cache of the year. So, last night I did my usual search, downloaded the gpx. files and copied them over to the device. I then ejected the device safely etc etc. I turned it on and there they were, perfect! So I turned it off, went to bed dreaming of today and my mini adventure. I woke up this morning, turned the GPS on and what? No caches!? What how can this be!? Was it all a dream!? I connected the device to my MAC and went to copy the files over again only to see, wait...they are all in the folder under geocaches on the device?! So why is not reading them!?!!?! I deleted them and did the process over and over until I decided to call Magellan. They were a waste of time. They have no idea what is wrong with it. I played around with the geocaching website, and thought, hey why not, I will give the download to gps button a go...wow it worked its on my device...Brilliant! I will do the next 19 and then we can go, only 2 hours behind schedule! I then safely ejected the device...turned it on.....clicked on geocaches and .......... only 2 out of the 20 were on there!? Please someone help! Why over night would it stop reading the caches and why are they in the folder on the device but not showing when I turn it on? So gutted, I love this little GPS. Nina

When I zoom in it just seems to show space!? nothing else. I will try it again and see what happens. Thanks for the advice! Nina

I got a Magellan eXplorist GC for my birthday this year. I love it and have been on a couple of caching days with it! My only complaint is I dont seem to have any decent maps on it. It is very basic. I think I got too used to my App and Topographic Map! Can you get Topo maps for the eXplorist GC? Many Thanks Nina
