+Miragee Posted November 30, 2007 Share Posted November 30, 2007 I have a palm and I was wondering if it was possible to download the cache information page to it. ~.~Scare Force One I downloaded, installed, then paid for and Registered Cachemate more than two years ago. It is a great little program on my Palm M500. I Export the information in .pdb format from GSAK. The cache info is transferred at the next HotSync. Quote Link to comment
+TheAlabamaRambler Posted November 30, 2007 Share Posted November 30, 2007 Several ways. I download a PQ, Open it in GSAK, Export to a Palm pdb file, Hotsynch, Open all the cache pages from the PQ in CacheMate. Fast, powerful and easy. Found 6 caches today that way. Quote Link to comment
+StarBrand Posted November 30, 2007 Share Posted November 30, 2007 Pocket Queries are your friend: Here is a tutorial: http://www.markwell.us/pq.htm Then here is a tutorial for transfer to Palm: http://www.geocacher-u.com/resources/paperless.html Quote Link to comment
Loren :) Posted November 30, 2007 Share Posted November 30, 2007 It depends on your Palm's capabilities Scare Force One. Here's another option: (maybe) If your Palm runs a web browser like Blazer then one can browse the target page, select Save Page and you are done.

+SidAndBob Posted November 30, 2007 Share Posted November 30, 2007 If you specifically want to display HTML on your Palm you can convert it with Plucker. Quote Link to comment
+sbell111 Posted November 30, 2007 Share Posted November 30, 2007 (edited) If you specifically want to display HTML on your Palm you can convert it with Plucker. I like the Plucker option best. One non-standard thing that I do, however, is use Sunrise desktop instead of Plucker's desktop application. Sunrise runs faster and syncs any pics from GC.com's cache pages to the cache pages on my pda. Edited November 30, 2007 by sbell111 Quote Link to comment

Plucker is free and is simple to use, but doesn't have all the features GSAK offers. That is why I chose GSAK after trying Plucker. You can Export from GSAK in HTML format, as well as many other formats. Quote Link to comment

Well, actually, I use GSAK to export the html that Sunrise uses. I then sync that to the Plucker application on my pda. I realize that I just made it sound really complicated, but it isn't.

There is no fee for the use of Plucker or Sunrise's desktop application. It's also pretty easy to set up. If you check out CYBret's Geocacher-U page that I'm pretty sure that someone linked up above, it will walk you through the setup of Plucker's desktop application. Sunrise's app sets up pretty much exactly the same way. Edited November 30, 2007 by sbell111 Quote Link to comment
+Rockin Roddy Posted December 1, 2007 Share Posted December 1, 2007 Thanks guys.....I'll have to play some more!! This learning thing....well, no wonder I hated school! Too much work involved (or maybe I just make it too hard)! Quote Link to comment
+stickerooni Posted December 11, 2007 Share Posted December 11, 2007 Could somebody run through this again, please? I have three pocket queries that run regularly. They USED to include a file which I could read with MobiPocket Reader (a free install on my PDA). Then the files stopped coming in. What is GSAK? Quote Link to comment
