this is way to hard trying to load info gpx file using a mac and macaching I tryed to drag it to gpx file .
also when I goto the map it shows all of the caches then I tap on one and they all go away.
and when I goto the geocaching icon it will bring up the caches that are closest I hit one and goto the map and it only shows that one I would like to see them all or at least the closest ones any help is good but needs to be simple thanks12/26/2009 at 6:02 pm #1918797This is on a IMac?

01/03/2010 at 6:08 am #1918802Not sure on the nuvi 500 but on the nuvi 760 I use a nuvi macro and after that runs it automatically starts point of interest loader and that deletes the previous bunch of caches before loading the new ones.
01/03/2010 at 3:13 pm #1918803Raslas stated it pretty well…it pretty much runs itself once you’ve engaged the macro. Step by step directions will load for you to respond to 😀 Do you need any help loading GSAK…setting up the macro or POI loader?
Try this link to Garmin…it may help you too:

GSAK doesn’t work on OSXA friend has the same problem…she’s got the Snow Leopard operating system and is stuck using Maccaching which isn’t a very good program. And you’re right about GSAK…and they have no plans to set up a Mac program either. In another thread, I found that there is a program that will allow Mac to run pc based programs You might want to look for it.
