    I have had the same problem today. I think it is a fault with geocaching.com

    Groundspeak forum full of similar posts.

    Seems to be a problem with the first bit of the web address HTTP... If it has a 'S' in there the plug in wont work.

    Try.
    Look at a different page, ie one without the 'S' (seems people are getting problems on the map page, but not from the cache page?)

    Download a Pocket Query.

    Another option... Download to your desktop, then load to the GPS via Drag n Drop. That should bypass the Garmin Communicator plug in.

    Red face Re; loading geocaches

    Thanks for your replies. I was trying to down load from geocache map which would not let me down load. I had to get gc No go to cache and do it that way, along way around but got there in the end. Thanks again.

    Can no longer download geocaches through Garmin Communicator plug in as Google Chrome no longer supports the software (or something like that) So what do i do now

    Are you a premium member, and do you have the GSAK program? That is what I use when I want to put more than one cache at a time into my old GPSr which I never got to work with the Communicator plugin.
