2oldfarts (the rockhounders) Posted September 7, 2014 Share Posted September 7, 2014 (edited) I think you missed where to post a problem. This is Off Topic where we post wonderful and silly and sometimes even serious threads about everything or anything except caching. If you wait till tomorrow, this thread will be moved by a mod to the proper forum, or you could look for "Bug Reports" and post in the forum marked "Website". Either way, you should be able to get some answers to your problem..... Wow, 3000 cache notes loading.....ugh! Good luck.

You can fix it by deleting the file that has the field notes (or copy it to another drive and then delete the one on the GPSr), since it regenerates when you log again. Not knowing your particular situation, I'm not highly recommending deleting it, but that would get rid of the glitch with the checkmark. Quote Link to comment

Hey guys - haven't seen you around in a while, but you keep signing those logs right ahead of us! Anyway - what you are describing should not happen, but at the same time, the advice above is sound. Periodically, with your 450 connected to your PC, dig into the thing as though it was a thumb drive and look for the file in the Garmin folder called geocache_visits.txt. That's where all of those logs have been stored. Once uploaded, there's no need to retain them on your 450, so you can delete the file. That will certainly prevent them from being uploaded.

+2lablovers Posted September 12, 2014 Author Share Posted September 12, 2014 thanks everyone. Deleting the geocache_visits.txt file did the trick. 2lablovers Quote Link to comment
