+ergomaniac Posted February 24, 2007 Share Posted February 24, 2007 Lots of past discussions about paperless caching on this forum... The quick answer is GSAK... the rest of the formula is a subscription (premium membership) to Geocaching.com so that you can create pocket queries. Import the pocket queries into GSAK and export to a format that you can upload to your PDA. Quote Link to comment
+T F T C Posted February 24, 2007 Share Posted February 24, 2007 You just have to re-download them from geocaching.com and then replace the old caches with the new updated ones. I don't think there's any way (currently) for your pda or computer to update your caches without logging on to geocaching.com. Quote Link to comment

Does this imply you have outdated logs on your Palm now? Yes. It did mean that until I tried to delete verything and reload. Now none of my caches on my Palm have any support info.

That never happens to me with CacheMate. I just upload new PQ's from time to time (OK, Three times per week because I'm addicted), and that keeps the last 5 logs on every cache. The reason it's only the last 5 logs has to do with the Geocaching PQ limits as CacheMate is willing to do up to 10. Good stuff and it works for Pocket PC's as well as Palm. Quote Link to comment

My palm has more than the last five logs. The pocket query only gives you five but if you let them build up in GSAK and tell GSAK to send them all to your palm you will have them all. It would be difficult to go back and get all logs from each cache but you can have all logs starting from your first pocket query. Quote Link to comment
