Downloading GPX to Magellan Explorist GC

I recently got my Explorist as a gift. I've been able to download individual cache files to my device, but I'm having trouble downloading multiple caches at once. I bought iCaching for my Macbook and have been able to import pocket queries no problem. However when I go to export to my handheld it keeps telling me I'm selecting the wrong folder on my device. I've been trying to select the geocaches folder, like I have done previously for the .gpx files. Any suggestions?

I don't know about Icaching but until that is resolved, you can always copy the pocket query files into your unit. Unzip the primary gpx file and copy it into the .geocaches folder - put the wpt.gpx file into the waypoints filter. It appears you have been able to do that with individual files, the process with pocket queries is no different except that they have to be extracted from the .zip file.

 

Icaching should also allow you to do live searches through the ground speak API and transfer those results to the explorist. But in either event, if you are having problems with it and cannot resolve it here, contact them for support.
