After upgrading my iBook to a MacPro and OSX.6 last year I found that I cannot download the routes to my old and trusty Garmin GPS48.
The waypoints transfer fine, but the route doesn't show up. I have the settings set to GARMIN in GPSNavX 5.70 and the 48 set to GARMIN/GARMIN HOST mode. This is always the way I've done it for years now.
Today, after much fiddling, I set the GPS48 to G/G REC all UPS sub mode and got it to transfer the route, but only to spot 0. Any further attempts just overwrite that route. At least it's something, as I'm on a week's cruise.
They are connected via a Keyspan connector serial to USB. I suspect something is amiss there.
Thought I'd try a shout out. Rich has tried to help to no avail. - it's all pretty basic and usually it either transfers or not.
