Putting 1000 logs on GSAK

[+Gralorn]

When I used to just have 500 caches from a PQ I simply opened the file, right clicked and added to GSAK and it asked if I wanted to update, said yes and that was it. How can I load a 1000 caches though as the format is different and I cannot seem to get it into GSAK. Updates are not a problem as they of course are less than 500 so come into my e-mails in the old format. Its just loading a 1000 ???? Any assistance most appreciated.

Click on the link and download to your PC in whatever folder you want.

 

In GSAK Open, select folder and point it where you saved the DL earlier.

 

If you have more than one PQ DL them all first before doing the GSAK bit.

 

I hope that GSAK will develop some working relationship with GC to agree a way of downloading these via GSAK but we'll have to wait a while for that.

Does not work like that: In my In box I have:

 

noreply@geocaching.com [GEO]Pocket query: List 1 So i open that and get:

 

Your pocket Query titled "List 1" has been generated.................view and download completed PQ's at http??www etc.

 

If I open that it simply takes me to my list of PQs. What am i supposed to do then?

you click on "pocket queries ready to download", look for the PQ in the list and download it there.

You should have an extra tab at the top which says downladable pqs or some thing like that... click it then on the file and it will download

Ive read that and looked at the site and im still none the wiser about what you ACTUALLY do/can do with it.

it will download your pq's and its a waypoint management tool and allows you to build a offline database of caches

 

you will see stats on a lot of peoples profile pages that are generated by a macro added to gask

 

it will allow you to select the caches you want to send to your gps

 

it will build a cachemate database via the use of another macro

 

export to numerous formats like for a ipod, html listings, tomtom

According to the GSAK forums, Clyde is in contact with Nate over this matter.

(Obviously Nate is a little busy with things at the moment!)

[+Gralorn]

Thank you, as usual you have been most helpful and my problem is no more. The wonder of this forum never ceases to amaze me. Cheers!

Simply exporting the filtered list of caches to a GPX will allow cachemate to import it. Does the filter do anything different?

 

Ta!

[+Stuey]

There is a macro which builds the actual cachemate database file in a moment. Drag and drop it to the cachemate/database folder and it's done. Saves waiting for the gpx to import (especially on a big database).

You mean the sort of thing that GS could of done in the past 10 years with your Membership fees.

 

What exactly HAVE the Romans done for us.

I'm not normally one to defend GC.com, but to be fair, I'm not sure they could replicate GSAK and all its functionality. A completely customisable export direct to any GPS type device you can think off is probably asking a bit much!
