I started using EasyGPS to send geocaches to my Garmin 265WT yesterday. It seemed to work fine at the time. I downloaded the waypoints as a .gpx file and followed the instructions in EasyGPS to send them to my GPS. The geocaches were there all day yesterday. However, this evening, when I wanted to add another .gpx file to my GPS, I cannot do it. When I highlight and try to send a selected portion of the geocache locations (or try to send all of them, or even just one of them), nothing happens. I get the window that asks me to confirm what I want to send (waypoints, geocaches, tracks, etc.), but I never get the window indicating that the file is being sent.

I tried simply copying and pasting the .gpx file into the appropriate folder in the Garmin drive under the "My Computer" location. This loaded the locations, but not the Geocache Code numbers or other information. Furthermore, the second time I tried this, the data became corrupted (it wasn't in English) and then my Garmin re-set itself somehow. And still, when I try to upload the .gpx file, nothing happens.

Any hints as to what I am doing wrong? I'd appreciate any help I could get.

Thanks!
