I can't get my waypoints from the (basic) Garmin eTrex to my Topo 5 software on PC. I can't nail info in a search. Can anyone please help.

Thank you

From within the exchange dialog box, you should have either Garmin NEMA (w/WPT) and Garmin/Garmin and a few others, try the Garmin/Garmin setting.

I did try that setting first....It initiates then eventually fails to send the waypoints to the PC
