  1. I also reset the explorist but that did not help at all...in fact it took away the waas download/upgrade i did some back, and since I cannot connect, I am stuck.
  2. I am having problems with connecting my explorist 210 with my pc. I have done so in the past and never had a problem. when I hook the usb cable up, the unit goes into usb mode, but my pc does not see it . I thought it was my cable as it was pulling apart in the middle, but i cut it in half and respliced it together and its still doing the same thing. ...I looked for my original install cd for the magellan software in case I needed a new driver or something, but cannot find it. Tried to look for any drivers for XP to perhaps reinstall to see if that was the prob..but no luck on finding a driver...Any suggestions
  3. a local middle school in the area did a class on geocaching. I created a number of geocaching pages but did not publish them. I then printed off the pages for the kids to use, this way I would be able to control the content of what they saw and could place some temporary caches anywhere I wanted. After they were done with my temp cache hides, I just took the pages down. Again, i created the pages, just never oficially published them
  4. I noticed on the mygpsoffer site the other day that they have upped it to the nuvi 270 now instead of the nuvi 200
  5. The nuvi 200 came today...its charging as we speak....too me a few minutes to figure out how to charge it thru my usb port...seems to be working fine....tomorrow i cut up my discover card!!! I love free stuff!!
  6. So I check my email today and was notified that the billing info was submitted for shipping via ups for the nuvi....I will advise when the nuvi arrives in the next few days!!!
  7. I signed up last week, got my card today and activated it. while on the phone with discover, their customer service person confirmed its a valid office.....looks like i will be buying something for 1.00 tomorrow!! customer service said when the first purchase is made, they notify the mygpsoffer people and that whole process of 6-8 weeks starts......I am looking forward to my nuvi!!!
  8. Thanks!!!! That did it for me and I was able to remove it!!! Have a great day Ambrosia!
  9. No its not part of a cache page layout, it was just uploaded into the gallery.
  10. Its actually one of my cache hides that I did this to. I wasn't paying attention to what tab I was on and clicked to upload the photo to the gallery, and it went to my wrong hide, so there is not a log with associated with it.

    image gallery

    How does one remove an image from a gallery? I uploaded an image for one of my caches....and did it to the wrong one! I trolled the geocaching site and could not find how to remove an image.
  12. Does anyone know if geocaching.com would have plans to allow downloading to magellan units the way you can to a garmin? I trolled the forum and did not see anything that answers this.
  13. read some of the threads about upgrading to the more current firmware for the 210. I did mine the other day and it added some great new screens and seems more responsive and accurate.

  15. mjporter is right, vantagepoint would likely be a better fit for newer laptop, download is here: vantagepoint I did install it sometime ago...I may have hit a snag as I recall in installing it and had to do some surfing on the forums to find a work around on the install. Works fine for me. I even found a free imi map of the us that i was able to install on it for the detailed streets.....wish i could figure out a way to edit that map so I could load it on my exploarist 210
  16. What type of software are you looking for? If you are looking for mapsend lite, its a free download you can find here: Mapsend Lite download
  17. I found an imi file of wisconsin, but its just slightly too big for my available memory on the 210. This link below will take you to the great site i found it on, geared toward snowmobiling. File size is 29.2 mb, and I only have 28mb of avail memory. wisconsin imi detail file There are also a few other formats and states at this site.
  18. any one know where to get a wisconsin detail map for an explorist 210? I don't need the whole country...just wisconsin so i can load it on my 210. In looking at different posts here and there, looks like they need to be an imi file format...any suggestions would be appreciated.
  19. I just did the upgrade and it worked like a charm. I had saved the us basemap and then just switched em. I did save the eu basemap...never know when i might need it. Actually did 3 weeks ago as I loaned my 210 to a friend who took it to greece and london....bummer i didn't have the base map for them there. Now to figure out how to get a detail map of wisconsin in an explorist format
