+TheRedArmy Posted May 15, 2009 Posted May 15, 2009 i've noticed some caches showing up in my RECENT FINDS even though i never found and located the cache, i was in the vicinity, but i never FOUND it. they show up as CLOSED BOXES, not like when i hit FOUND on my unit, which then shows them as OPEN treasures. they are in the RECENT FIND section, but no longer in my GEOCACHE page on my gps. my question is: if i am in the vicinity but do not FIND the cache, does it move it to the RECENT FINDS section and remove it from the GEOCACHE section? this is what seems to be happening and would make sense i guess. because it's moving them into RECENT FINDS but not marking them as found. also, is there a way to UPLOAD all my finds at one time, or do i have to manually go into the site, locate them and log them? i am a basic member, not a premium member if that makes a difference.

No - those units don't support an upload to the site. Besides - we like you to share your thoughts about each unique cache visit in the logs. Quote

+BadSquirrel Posted May 15, 2009 Posted May 15, 2009 I believe "Recent Finds" is better described as "Places You Recently Looked For". So yes, if you "go to" a cache, don't find it, and go somewhere else, it'll still show up in the "Recent Finds" menu. Kinda like your phone...it remembers who you dialed last, whether or not you actually talked to anyone. Quote
