Update for Basecamp

Former Member over 10 years ago

Hi I haven't updated Basecamp for ages the version I have now is 4.1.1 and I have loads of routes and tracks stored on this version but the last time I updated all my tracks just wasn't on the updated version and lost them all so that's why I am a bit worried about updating ~ I know I should do the backup but has anything changed in the new versions to be able to just load up your tracks on the update?
Thanks

I've never lost any data with an upgrade yet. To be extra careful, before the update I would do the backup, then export all your routes, tracks, and waypoints to a series of GPX files. Rather a PITA, but fail-safe.

Frankly, I wouldn't upgrade to 4.4.6 yet, it has introduced a bug when extending a track that is rather annoying. See if you can get hold of 4.4.4 or 4.4.3.....they are out there somewhere.
