+BurgeoGull & MrsGull Posted May 24, 2014 Share Posted May 24, 2014 I recently bought a new computer with windows 8. A few bugs along the way but not too bad...however I have another one now! When I try to send a geocache to my 62s my gps from my computer via geocaching.com website, it is not recognized. I have installed the latest garmin plugin and even updated the gps with map updater. The gps is recognized everywhere else except geocaching.com. Hopefully someone can offer a suggestion as to what may be the problem. Thanks. Quote Link to comment

Go to "Tools" in the browser menu, click on "Compatibility Mode(?)...View(?)", something like that [We stopped using it years ago]. Add geocaching.com to the list. -or- Switch to Mozilla Firefox and not have to bother with that stuff. Edited May 24, 2014 by Gitchee-Gummee Quote Link to comment
+Tripple Shot Posted May 24, 2014 Share Posted May 24, 2014 I have tried on IE and Firefox. No luck. Windows 8.1. I've seen others have resolved this issue, but I have not. Help. Quote Link to comment
+Bear and Ragged Posted May 24, 2014 Share Posted May 24, 2014 Check the web address...If it's got HTTPS at the front, that seems to be the problem. (The map page seems to be a culprit...) Look for a cache page that is HTTP (without the S) Quote Link to comment
