Are waypoints (other than tracklogs) even stored on the card at all?

 

Perhaps the unit was writing to the card when it was yanked.

You may not have it fully inserted. Did you slide the lock?

You messages says all you data is gone, but the subject says all of your waypoints are gone. That's kindof two separate things.

 

I don't think waypoints are stored on the card, as that's internal. Make sure it's installed correctly, and you slid the slider up to lock it in place (at first, I didn't realize this slid up to lock it in place and the card would frequently "eject" itself.

I guess I'm not up on my terminology. Sorry. Anyhoo, I plugged my micro chip into my computer and verified that there is no data on it.

I don't think waypoints are stored on the card either.

What I lost is all my waypoints (geochaches, tracks & routes) I thought I might have accidently selected reset all when trying to reset the odometer but the odo was never reset so I guess it's still a mystery.
