I just got a new Geo caching gps a magellan exploits. was trying to start cheap but I guess they don't work for mac's. My problem also is that I downloaded all the geo caches in my area and it comes up as a file called geocaching.loc and my computer does not recognize this. Anyone have any advice on how to make this work. As well as which GPS I should buy to make it as easy as possible. I just use it to do stuff with my kids.

Your computer doesn't need to recognize LOC files. All it needs to do is download them, connect to the GPS receiver via USB, and transfer the LOC files to the GPS receiver.

I tried messing with mac caching and some of those programs, but it was just making extra work. Not worth it. I just plug in my gps to the mac keyboard, use the original maps, and download directly on to my gps. As far as notes go, I just copy and paste those.
