Been using a 350 for quite a few years and never really figured out the track records. I have been away travelling for 3 weeks and every couple of days I save my tracks to another device so that I can keep a record of where I have been in Basecamp. I have tried to be meticulous about this after previously losing records of a long trip on a Nuvi as I did not realise the tracks were dropped. Presumably this is due to memory limitations.
I have tracks for every day of my trip except the last 4 days of the journey which do not show in basecamp. However even though archive/.gpx files have dates for only those days I was away, basecamp shows tracks from a previous trip.
My guess is the .gpx files messed themselfs up and the solution would be simply to delete all of them - and swallow the frustration that once again Garmin have lost something as precious as photos to me
Any advice welcome
Where did my tracks go
Re: Where did my tracks go
Something strange just happened. I was about to wipe the device but decided to double check the manual, and came across the track back app. It seemed to show a small part of my journey so I saved it as a trip. Wonders were beheld on importing into BCamp. The exact part of my trip that had been missing (1,200 miles and 6 countries) re-appeared
I am now mr happy
But still need advice.
1. Would this have been less likely to happen if I were using an sd card?
2. What is the preferred method of reseting/stabilising the device?

Re: Where did my tracks go
1. No
2. To carry out a master reset turn off the Zumo and disconnect any power cable from the unit. Hold down your finger in the lower-right corner of the screen. Hold the "Power" button, releasing it only after the Zumo turns on. Release your finger from the lower-right corner of the screen after a "Do you really want to erase all user data?" message appears. Tap "Yes."
