Well, I tried once again but am back at SQURE ONE with all of this.
The NEW Garmin units use a VERY PROPRIETARY code called
.ADM
Therefore, you save your waypoints to GPX format then upload them to Garmin's Trip and waypoint Manager--which they claim is no longer available---I DO have my old copy--
Then evidently Trip and waypoint "Garminizes" eveything and you can then jump through the rest of the hoops and finally upload to your 520/ 530 etc.
If you can not gain access to trip and Waypoint you are finished.
GPS Babel does no support .ADM (at least my lastest download does not).
If you or anyone else out there has a work around I and everyone else in this position would appreciate a head's up.
I for one am sorry that I ever purchased not one but TWO plus their charts---which by the way are stunning---but far too restricive to be useful.
As soon as I reach New Zealand it all gets dumped and I will go elsewhere.
Any solutions would be appreciated.
Thanks
Ed
