Title: Waypoints will not save to card.
Post by: zdriver on January 25, 2014, 01:46:57 PM

  I am doing everything right ( I think), but exporting all data to my sd card is not working. It only loads maybe  2/3 of them.
  Any ideas?

Not sure if any of this will help.

How big is your card?

Have you checked your card to see how full it is?

Is your card now in the protected mode?

 The card is an 8gb. I removed everything from the card before I exported all waypoints.
 No, it isn't locked.  It seems, not sure, but it is only saving waypoints that are labeled by default. It is not loading waypoints that I have renamed. >:(

Do you have another SD card to try?

What version software are you running?  Are you using the waypoint management?

Try taking a snapshot (even if it's in full Simulator)..

This will tell you if the unit is writing to the card...

I was on version 5.7. I tried one sd card and it loaded 18 points. I tried another card and it loaded 2. One was from yesterday and the other was the simulation snapshot.  I formatted a card, exported all waypoints and saved tracks.  I deleted all waypoints on my 597, inserted my card, "SAVE ALL WAYPOINTS AND SAVED TRACKS?"---YES...It loads one saved track.

What is waypoint management?

Which unit are you trying this on?
What software version is it (or both units) running?
When you formatted the memory card, what File System did you format it to?
When you say: “I deleted all waypoints on my 597, inserted my card, "SAVE ALL WAYPOINTS AND SAVED TRACKS?"---YES...It loads one saved track.”, was this on the same unit?
