j2garnett Posted June 26, 2008 Share Posted June 26, 2008 For some reason, I cannot get new caches to write to my GPS. I have tried it on my mac and PC and both say they recognize the GPS, and have "written" the cache to the GPS successfully, but then I can't find it on the GPS anywhere! It's not in geocaches or waypoints... (I feel like they answer is probably something easy I'm over looking but help would be appreciated) Thanks! Quote Link to comment

It may be out of range if it's quite a distance away. Quote Link to comment
+Nachtraaf Posted June 26, 2008 Share Posted June 26, 2008 (edited) Don't look in waypoints or geocaches. Have a look in the "Custom Points of interest" at the complete bottom of the list. Regards, weedboer Edited June 26, 2008 by weedboer Quote Link to comment
