Garmin Oregon 550T stopped displaying caches

[+Brooklyn51]

We use a Garmin Oregon 550T. We have several loaded caches but suddenly they no longer display in our "find a geocache" list and none show in the "found" list. We loaded in some caches for 11-11 and 11-12, and used the GPSr for caching both days. Today, no caches loaded prior to these dates appear, although we know we had several loaded. We reloaded one that we wanted to find today and got the "this cache is already loaded" message so we know it's in the memory, but it didn't show. All of our waypoints are gone as well. We can add in new caches but all is gone prior to 11-11-11. We changed batteries but other than that we've completed no upgrades. We tried changing batteries again, but the results were the same. Any ideas?

remove all the cache from GPS, restart, shut down, reload all caches, restart

If you have moved a long distance the caches won't show up unless you do a search by name instead of by distance.

These are all local caches - right near our home. We know they are listed by distance. We've used this GPSr for about two years but it's never done this.

We were hoping there was a solution that didn't require having to lose/reload them all. They are in the memory, just not dispalying. Are you thinking that we have to start all over again? Bummer.

The "remove/reload" step can be just moving the files off the device and then moving them back on afterwards.

Hmmmm, that didn't work. There must be something in the files themselves??? Thanks for the help.

Did you remove all the cache files from your GPS, then restarted it, shut it down, then put them back on the GPS, and then restart the GPS? You have to do all these steps to get them to reload.
