+GadgetNerdly Posted February 18, 2012 Share Posted February 18, 2012 (edited) Hello I decided that I wanted to start doing more geocaching so I went to load some GPX files on the SD card. So from my computer I went to the sd card /Garmin/GPX and I dropped some GPX files in there. Nothing will show up. So I did some searching and read about putting in the Current folder, I did that and still nothing shows up. I then put the GPX files in the internal memory and copy pasted the entire GPX folder from internal memory to the SD card. Still wont display any thing. So I did a hard rest and tried everything again and still the only way I can view Geocaches is if they are in internal memory. The SD card works because I am able to view gpsfiledepot maps that are loaded on to it. Help please Edited February 18, 2012 by The NoBodies Quote Link to comment
+GadgetNerdly Posted February 18, 2012 Author Share Posted February 18, 2012 (edited) It is an 8Gb formatted Fat32. I use it for maps with no problems. Also I am using the 3.9 beta firmware. I never really tried to put GPX files on the Sd card while on older firmware. Edited February 18, 2012 by The NoBodies Quote Link to comment
+Walts Hunting Posted February 19, 2012 Share Posted February 19, 2012 Are the caches close by. If the closest cache is over a certain distance it wont show up. Try searching by name to overcome that limitation and see what happens. What device do you have. It spins like you are dropping individual cachers in it.

+GadgetNerdly Posted February 19, 2012 Author Share Posted February 19, 2012 Nah I am using PQs on a 62s. They were not showing up in the master list of all caches or on the map and if I went into the geocache list it told me no geocaches found. But it is working now. Not sure what caused it. But I deleted all of the GPX files on the unit (SD card and internal memory) using my computer. Then I removed the SD card and rebooted it with no card in it. Then I turned it off, put the card back in and turned it on again. And then I put the gpx files back on the SD card and now when I turn it on they all show. Kinda strange, but I guess it works now. I did a lot of searching and I have seen other people have a problem similar to what I had. I hope its not something I run into again. Thanks for the help everyone. Quote Link to comment
