I just bought a 62stc but this specifically refers to an Oregon 450. If the answer to my upcoming question applies to both, please let me know, thanks.
Just bought a used Oregon 450 to play with and because price is right. My goal is off-road for hunting. Ok, so all software is current, including latest firmware and basecamp, etc.
So I transfer info from the device to basecamp. Then in the BC windowpane, I delete all the stuff from the previous user that I don't want. I also have a couple of important TRACKS from a couple of hikes I did the past couple of weeks. I realize deleting something from a list doesn't delete the original so I'm working with the originals in BC and deleting everything right down to where I have everything I want and its looking nice and neat.
Now...
How do I send that new cleaner, more organized, streamlined "collection" BACK to the Oregon 450 so that THAT is all the 450 has in it? After I sent "My Collection" to the device, it seemed the device STILL had on it the things I had deleted in BC. If I import from device, I get all the stuff I deleted back.
My PRIMITIVE solution was to just go into the GPS as a hard drive and delete those things I could recognize as being from the previous owner. But I don't think its thorough or efficient.
Can anyone please tell me if there's an easier way to do all that? And is it basically the same for my 62stc.
Thanks,
Sam
