+markoCR Posted August 16, 2015 Share Posted August 16, 2015 (edited) 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! Edited August 16, 2015 by markoCR Quote Link to comment
+Bear and Ragged Posted August 16, 2015 Share Posted August 16, 2015 (edited) Easiest way is to Bookmark them, then make a PQ from the Bookmark. How far away are they? Caches over a certain distance wont show, unless you scroll the map to look for them/ search city, then search for the caches. Edited August 16, 2015 by Bear and Ragged Quote Link to comment
+StefandD Posted August 17, 2015 Share Posted August 17, 2015 And how many? 200 GPX files is the limit your Oregon can handle. Quote Link to comment

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. Quote Link to comment
