+Ksiope Posted May 23, 2012 Share Posted May 23, 2012 Hello, This morning I wanted to load 2 caches in my GPS in order to go geocaching this afternoon. When I am on the cache page, I press the button "send to my GPS" as I usually do, it opens a window showing Delorme GPS (it does not recognize my devices Garmin) and it freezes my computer. I have to reboot it. I'm on mac and my GPS are Etrex legend HCX and Garmin Oregon 450. Is it a bug ? What can I do? Ty Quote Link to comment
+lowcash2012 Posted May 23, 2012 Share Posted May 23, 2012 Last night I tried loading about 20 onto my Garmin Etrex10 and only 6 showed up. I am brand new to this, so it was pretty frustrating. Quote Link to comment
+smooey Posted May 24, 2012 Share Posted May 24, 2012 Interesting. I think the Delorme loader is completely broken as well - I am at least getting further than you are with my Delorme PN-20 device. I see a "waypoint indexing error" I have filed an issue on Monday but no word from Groundspeak as to what the problem may be. \smooey\ Quote Link to comment
+Jadenegro01 Posted May 28, 2012 Share Posted May 28, 2012 I am using an oregon 450t and Macbook and I can't load any caches. has anyone figured out what the problem might be? It's a long weekend and we wanted to caching! I don't get any errors at all. It acts like they are loading but nothing loads. Don't have gsak - going directly from geocaching.com Quote Link to comment
+JesandTodd Posted May 28, 2012 Share Posted May 28, 2012 (edited) Try GSAK, it's free until you pay for it..(nag screen) Whoops. See you have a Mac. I'm sure there's a work around but I don't know it... Edited May 28, 2012 by JesandTodd Quote Link to comment
+cwgrizz Posted May 28, 2012 Share Posted May 28, 2012 Not sure if Mac works like a PC, but I have had the problem with Garmen and their Communicator software. I have had to load a new or reload the USB drivers. Then all is well again. I think Garmen does updates periodically and then it messes with the drivers. Your mileage may vary. Quote Link to comment

You'll need to use an older or beta version of the Garmin Communicator plugin. Quote Link to comment
+Jadenegro01 Posted May 28, 2012 Share Posted May 28, 2012 Thank you so much. It was a problem with the garmin communicator plug in. I downloaded the newer beta, that fixed it. whew Now we can go back to paperless caching. Our phones aren't very good for geocaching and our gps is too good to waste for a problem like this.
