I was wondering...the smartphones have been great for use in geocaching, but what do folks do when they are caching in areas that don't get cell service. I have an old Palm Tungeston E2 that I have used with cachemate, but now I am having trouble getting the palm to bluetooth with my computer and obviously then I can not sync it. I have Windows 7, 64 bit. Any suggestions would be helpful. Thanks.

Just ran two quieries and am not receiving them via email. Has anyone had this problem? I've been running quieries for about two years and this is the first time this has happened. Any suggestions?

Friday, 04/11/08, submitted 5 queries today and am not receiving the email?? Anyone else have this problem? Haven't had this problem in the past. It's not even showing that they have been run, the day Friday has been checked and it shows 5 queries, but not running.

I have a friend who is desperately trying to become a member of geocaching.com. She has filled everything out correctly, including her email address and is not getting the validation code sent to her.
Any help on what she should do. We have emailed geocaching.com, but have not heard back. Thanks -
Let's not forget how much fun geocaching is. It is a game after all and breaking park rules could result in losing the ability to hide caches in parks. Please, please follow the rules, especially in parks.

I am from VA and will be visiting a little town called Washington, Missouri about 1 hour's drive, I believe sw of St. Louis. I would love to attend the WWFM Event Cache on November 10th and was wondering if anyone would send me the GC of one that will be close to us. Thanks MarPeg

I just ran one and got it in a minute or so....Are you talking about regular PQs, or PQs from the "Caches Along A Route?" I just ran two PQs that were already in my list with no problems.
I haven't tried a Brand New PQ, nor a "Caches Along A Route" PQ.
Try running a BRAND NEW PQ, and let me know if you are able to.
hmmmm, wonder what is going on!

Emailed Eric with Groundspeak and he told me they were updating and it wouldn't be until next week that I would be able to run new queries. Anyone else having this problem?

From what I found a couple forums, some people get it to work, others don't. It may be some wierd setting in Vista that is stopping many people.
The PalmVista Simple Installer is here.
Thanks for the info, I am downloading Palm Vista Simple Installer now and hope that fixes the problem.

Gramza--
When idd you las download the latest version of Palm Desktop? I saw a note on the palm webpage saying they were working on a fix, but think it is due out sometime this summer.
About three weeks ago.
By the way, I HATE VISTA
I know, why does a good thing always have to change. It seems like if you want a new computer that is the only choice you have unless you go with a mac. I'm just not computer literate enough to make that change. I will say geocaching has definitely made me more computer literate. Happy caching and I will download the latest version and see if that helps. Thanks.

Where do I get the download for "PalmVista Simple Installer"? Thanks, I'm not the most computer literate.
Once you have run your query in GSAK and are ready to export the PDB file to your SD card, just set that path as the filename to save the file to (On the SD Card). After creating the file on the SD card, it will attempt to run the install, and you can just cancel that.
I have been paperless caching for about a month now, and I have Vista, and that is the workaround I found. Haven't run into any problems with it.
Thanks, I have been paperless caching since about February so can't live without it and do not want to lug the bigt laptop around with me when traveling.

I'm using Vista, GSAK and my palm all with no problems. Are you using Cachemate or something else on your Palm?
All I did was go to the Palm web sight and download the latest version of Palm Desktop and it works fine.
Well, aren't I the jealous one. I am using cachemate and will try the download. Are you using cachemate?

According to this update, PalmVista Simple Installer may be the temporary answer.

According to Palm's website, quick install doesn't work with Vista. Until they release a new Palm Desktop for Vista, I believe the workaround is to load the files directly to your SD card.
I'm not sure how I would load into the SD card from Gsak

I just purchased a new laptop with Windows Vista as the operating system. Palm Quick Install will not work through Gsak. My whole purpose of getting a new, very small laptop was so that I could take it with me Any help would be appreciated. I need to be able to load the palm with cache descriptions. Heeeeeeeelp!

Hello,
I would like to trade and of course need the King and Ace. I have two 10's to trade, but it sounds like everyone else also has the tens and need what I need. Thanks
