    A good reminder for everyone to export their waypoints to a memory card and store it somewhere safe.

    You may be able to retrieve them, I upgraded on HBPC and they weren't loaded in after the upgrade. I did find them in my documents. I had saved copies of my files to my documents as a backup.

    I always keep mine backed up about 3 different ways ......But you shouldn't have lost them upgrading the software.

    short grub,
    Sorry to hear that you lost all of your waypoints but the guys here are right: you should not have lost them updating the software on your Humminbird unit. They are also right in that you should always back them up (and multiple copies is a good idea).

    I am perplexed though in how you have screen snapshots though. Did you have a second memory card in your unit when you loaded the software update or did you use the same memory card that the screen snapshots are on?

    Greg, think he is talking about his PC not his unit.

    Good catch Greg.....I didn't notice he said snapshots....I was thinking waypoints......Snapshots are saved on an SD card as they are taken, and are not stored in the unit.......The associated waypoint would be in the unit, however.
