Problems uploading caches onto GPS (Oregon 450)

Hi everyone,

 

I've been preparing for a trip and have been trying to upload caches onto my GPS, which is an Oregon 450. Although I normally use PQs, for this trip I just wanted to upload specific caches, so have been trying to do it manually, cache by cache, using the "Send to my GPS" option on the cache page.

 

I'm using IE and it recognises my device without a problem, but when I press Write, instead of getting the usual "successfully written" message coming up, I'm getting this:

 

E:/Garmin/GPX/GC5VH4K.GPX

 

When I check the GPS afterwards the cache isn't on it. Any ideas? I have the latest plugins installed. Any help/suggestions would be much appreciated, thanks!

Hi

 

Your problem is with the plugins. What Browser are you using? I had the same problem with Edge, IE11 and Chrome. In the end only Firefox worked for me. Install Firefox (if not already installed) and go through the steps of sending to GPS. Answer all the questions you get asked with YES, and you should be up and running.
