+LePape Posted February 14, 2016 Share Posted February 14, 2016 Hello, Anyone experienced this: SINGLE WAYPOINT TRANSFER FAILURE FROM GEOCACHING.COM Go to Geocaching.com, select the map, pick up a single cache to download to Oregon600, then press Write. (oregon found by communicator) Result: when I press WRITE I can see the path it is supposed to use to write the cache to the gps but I don't see a successfull transfer message or any error message. And the cache is not loaded in the Oregon GPS. The Oregon is in Garmin mode All required drivers are up to date The Garmin Communicator plugin is up to date I don't know what to do anymore, this should work as it actually does with my Nuvi 3597 and my 60CSX. Am I missing anything here????? Help please Quote Link to comment
+StefandD Posted February 14, 2016 Share Posted February 14, 2016 Yes, a lot of people experienced this. Just search these forums for the Garmin Communicator plug-in, which is the cause of your problem. Quote Link to comment

+Timpat Posted February 14, 2016 Share Posted February 14, 2016 When in Mass Storage mode simply save the gpx file in internal or card memory in the Garmin/GPX folder. Quote Link to comment
+LePape Posted February 14, 2016 Author Share Posted February 14, 2016 When in Mass Storage mode simply save the gpx file in internal or card memory in the Garmin/GPX folder. That is what Geocaching.com is trying to do....but it doesn't work as the waypoint is not transferred and I do not get a successfull message. Quote Link to comment
+Timpat Posted February 14, 2016 Share Posted February 14, 2016 Click on 'GPX file' to save it on your device. (Not 'Send to My GPS') Quote Link to comment
+LePape Posted February 14, 2016 Author Share Posted February 14, 2016 (edited) Click on 'GPX file' to save it on your device. (Not 'Send to My GPS') Geocaching.com doesn't show a GPX file that you can click on, it show BOOKMARK, SEND TO GPX or LOG YOUR VISIT Remember.... I am trying to send a unique waypoint to my GPS from Geocaching.com. OH...... I may be looking at the wrong screen, let me try... So I went pass the first screen, after clicking on the cache icon (screen number 1) I clicked on the cache name. That brought me to the second screen where I can see LOC WAYPOINT, GPX FILE, SEND TO MY GPS and SEND TO MY PHONE Yes..... it worked but I have to send the GPX file to the Oregon/garmin/gpx folder. Great tip Thanks for your help, it is very appreciated. Hermann Edited February 14, 2016 by LePape Quote Link to comment
