+Red90 Posted July 4, 2010 Posted July 4, 2010 How are you putting the caches on the GPSs? Have you changed how you do it? Can you copy and paste a sample of the field note text file here, please? Working fine for me. Quote

The gps are holding the field notes but when we go to field notes on Geocaching.com upload field notes for our units we sellect browse find the garmin file select field notes then upload and the screen blinks and record of our notes are found. Found everything the same as we did before. Quote

+Red90 Posted July 4, 2010 Posted July 4, 2010 Can you copy and paste a sample of the field note text file here, please? Please do this first. Also, on the field notes page, http://www.geocaching.com/my/uploadfieldnotes.aspx it "Ignore logs before". What date and time is shown there? Quote

Help Please.. joe.krukowski@yahoo.com It may be a Groundspeak problem. See http://feedback.geocaching.com/geocaching/...tes_not_working I think the site is having some issues with field notes uploads. Maybe that is causing your issue? Quote

My brand new oregan 550 will not upload field notes either and now this morning my colorado 300 won't either. Have never had a problem in the past. Edited July 4, 2010 by Team Pawz Quote
+Gitchee-Gummee Posted July 4, 2010 Posted July 4, 2010 Hmmmm... Our PN-40 uploaded the field notes just fine (7-3). Quote
+Kermie&MissPiggie Posted July 4, 2010 Posted July 4, 2010 Hmmmm... Our PN-40 uploaded the field notes just fine (7-3). This was the first time I uploaded my notes from my Dakota 20, (just bought it) and it seemed to work fine. Only thing I noticed is after I was done I deleted the notes but it said I still have pending notes? Quote
+Gushoneybun Posted July 4, 2010 Posted July 4, 2010 I had an issue last week when the site was updated but all is well now (Colorado.) Quote

Just a peculiarity of the system. Quote
joesdolphins Posted July 5, 2010 Author Posted July 5, 2010 It is now July 5th and nothing is working yet.. Im hoping its a ground speak issue.. we no ots not the gps becouse both our gps dont work for field notes, its not the computer becouse we have tryed on multi computers. Quote

+Red90 Posted July 5, 2010 Posted July 5, 2010 That looks fine and it works for me (I just tried your text). What about the "Ignore logs before" date? Quote
+Styk Posted July 7, 2010 Posted July 7, 2010 I had problems the other day with my 450, had to copy the file to my desktop and upload it from there for it to work. Quote
+Random Find Posted July 12, 2010 Posted July 12, 2010 We are having same problem here. Running Windows Vista. Might this be an update problem from the most recent update of Colorado 400t software on garmin.com? I can see the field notes file and open it but it just wont upload on geocaching.com Quote

+Roadster Posted July 16, 2010 Posted July 16, 2010 My 450T has been doing the same thing the past couple days, today I opened the file and there was a blank line at the top, so I moved the lines up one so there is no blank line and it worked, I think the problem might be, for me at least, is that I am deleting the text inside the file and not the whole file, I will delete the whole file this time and see.

+ecanderson Posted July 17, 2010 Posted July 17, 2010 FWIW: Long (58 cache) run yesterday and all uploaded normally from my Dakota 20, XP, Firefox (all current revs). Quote
