Geocaching List Syncing Details [Bug 9]
Has anyone found a way to push this to finish? I had synced like 4 or 5 lists and then the next one got stuck. It won't let me download live caches when it gets stuck.

I usually have to reboot and start over.
Which firmware version, how many lists, how many geocaches in each list? Bluetooth or Wi-Fi connection?

FW - 5.50
It happens when I hit about the 5th list.
Do you mean total caches across all lists or just for the one that hung?
The one that hung had 52, but by that point I probably had 2-300 total synced.
This happens on Bluetooth or Wifi.

Ah, so each list is less than 100 geocaches...
Does it hang up every time on the same list?

Not usually if I am rememberiing correctly. I wonder if a process on the GPS gets hung and then it can't recover from it.

So last night I factory reset and was going to just use live downloads (no Lists). It worked ok but this morning I went to download just a single list of 60 geocaches. It said it downloaded the basic details but then when seeing it in the list it's showing "Syncing details - 48%" and seems stuck. For a single list!

Good News ![Smile :)](./images/smilies/icon_e_smile.gif)
We were able to reproduce GC List Syncing issues with our GPSMAP 66sr also!
Bad News![Sad :(](./images/smilies/icon_e_sad.gif)
We were unable to complete any list downloads - even though the 66sr indicated the list was downloaded, it still showed as Not Synced afterward!
We have submitted a bug report to Garmin, and we suggest others do the same.
See GPSrChive > GPSMAP 66sr > Common Issues for details on how to do that!

Re: Geocaching List Syncing Details [Bug 9]
More odd behavior from this. When I sync lists, it doesn't grab the entire list most often so when I am going along it sometimes will not show a cache that I know is on the list. Has anyone else seen this? I can manually search for it and get the details but it won't show it on the map.
