You have to delete the entire file the waypoints are in. Edited October 24, 2006 by Blucruz Quote Link to comment
AZ_KMx2 Posted October 24, 2006 Share Posted October 24, 2006 If it is the same as my 400 you should be able to go to the geocache file (without viewing) and press menu and it should bring up a window that has move, delete, and something else. I just created a new folder for all my found caches and move them into there, just incase I may want to revisit a cache. I have the SD card so space is not a problem though. Quote Link to comment

robertlipe Posted October 24, 2006 Share Posted October 24, 2006 It's not the same as the current x400 firmware. Annoy Magellan to provide the same upgrade for the 210 (and XL) that they did for the x400, x500, and x600 last December that gives you the ability to mark caches as found. Then you won't have to go to the disk and delete the file yourself. Quote Link to comment
+FamilyDNA Posted October 25, 2006 Share Posted October 25, 2006 ok delete the file, any ideas on how to do that ? One way to delete the whole file: with the GPSr linked to the computer (like for a download), use "explore" and find the file, then delete it, My computer refers to the GPSr as a "removable disk."

kimnbair Posted October 26, 2006 Share Posted October 26, 2006 on mine i just go to menu and then poi's and then geocache pts and highlight the file and hit menu and then it comes up with add, move, and delete and i just choose delete Quote Link to comment
+JohnnyVegas Posted October 26, 2006 Share Posted October 26, 2006 I just delete them before my next geocaching outing, I just run a new PQ for the area and when I load the new file it overides the old file the uses the same name, were I live there are so many new caches being place every week a cacher around here would not want to go out without a new file. haveing a new file also eliminates recenty archived of disabled caches. I have never understood the need some cachers have to deletes a cache waypoint in the feild. Quote Link to comment

The 210 won't recharge batteries; you would need to remove them and stick them in an external charger. Only the 4/5/600 have a Li-ion battery that recharges in the GPS. Quote Link to comment
