GPSMAP 64s and Memory Map

Recommended Posts

Just replaced my GPSMAP 60csx with a GPSMAP 64s and having found a couple of places and marked them for potential new geocaches I don't seem to be able to upload the marks to Memory Map. No problem when I click on Tracks as they upload easily but just nothing happens when I'm in Memory Map then click on GPS, then on Marks.

I bought this GPS thinking it would be good for geocaching but I do need to use it with Memory Map. I've upgraded to Memory Map 6 but this still doesn't seem to recognise marks when either uploading or downloading in either Mass Storage mode or not. Garmin say there is nothing wrong with the GPS as it will upload the marks to their Basecamp map, although that is no good to me. Has anyone had experience of this?

They are in the GPX folder on your GPSMAP 64S.

You just load them as an overlay->import. They are WAYPOINTS_[DATE].gpx

They don't show if you try to import them by GPS->import from GPS-> marks

Thank you so much Andy for pointing me in the right direction. I never thought of using Overlay Import/Export. Thank you again
