Send download trips to a phone

Hi, I upgraded to Premium Member on geocaching.com so I could send caches to my phone (N95) with Geocache Navigator software installed. I then created an account with trimbleoutdoors.com so I could send the cache from geocaching.com to my trimbleoutdoors account.

I can send the trip to My Downloads: Pending Downloads? But from there I am stuck as is says when you hover over the question mark:

To download your pending trips, open the phone application listed for the downloaded and select “download trips” from the menu options.

I do not see “download trips” from the menu options.

Is it possible to send download trips to a Nokia N95 with Geocache Navigator ?

Re: Send download trips to a phone
J88k,

No, you cannot send trips/caches to the Geocache Navigator software.

A Premium membership to geocaching.com is not required to send caches to the Trimble Adventure Planner PC mapping software or to the Trimble Outdoors software phone application.

However, this information will not be transfered to the Geocache Navigator software.

I apologize for the confusion. We offer two separate software applications - Trimble Outdoors and Geocache Navigator. While Trimble Outdoors software will allow you to geocache it does require preplanning. Geocache Navigator removes the need to preplan and allows you to get caches "on the go"; however, you can manually enter lat/long of the caches along with find caches by the cache code.

If you have any further questions or concerns please feel free to contact me off line at: support@geocachenavigator.com.

Re: Send download trips to a phone

Thank's for replying and putting me straight on that Rebecca, at least I can now stop my mission on trying to get it to work.

I love using Geocache Navigator but the costs my mobile phone company have charged me over the last few days have stopped me using it for now. Over £20.00 in 3 days, one of the charges was £4.46 for 716.02 Kb data usage. I have now sorted out a plan that gives me 1gig a month for £5 so will be using Geocache Navigator soon again.

Thank you again
