+Pammypooh5 Posted June 16, 2006 Share Posted June 16, 2006 Hi, First of all, thank you for any advice you can offer. I have set up my Palm Zire M150. I have downloaded Cachemate and ran the HotSync. I ran my Pocket Query and downloaded the file to the computer. Everything seems to be going well, too well I guess because when I open the downloaded file it opens EasyGPS. How do I get the file from EasyGPS to the Palm Desktop so I can Hotsync and export it to the Palm? When I go to Install Tools and open up the EasyGPS file, there is nothing in those files. But I can go to EasyGPS and see loads of caches. What am I doing wrong? Link to comment
+Groovy Cachin' Dude! Posted June 16, 2006 Share Posted June 16, 2006 (edited) You need to use software that will save the file as a PDB (Palm DataBase) file. I use GSAK, but I'm sure there are others. Anyone? Here's a good article. Edited June 16, 2006 by Dude/Sweet Link to comment
+briansnat Posted June 16, 2006 Share Posted June 16, 2006 Cachemate comes with an app called CMConvert. Load your GPX file into that, hit convert, save and you're ready to go nextime you hotsync. Link to comment

After I opened it and downloaded it, everything worked PERFECTLY. I took my first paperless caching trip yesterday. It was great! I had a few DNF's but it was so much easier not having to search through a bunch of papers to find the waypoint I needed. Thank you again! Link to comment
