...and How to Install the Latest Version of GCzII​

Version 20100719_1330_0235_47 of GCzII (available from the Nique website) no longer works following website changes at geocaching.com.

Tom has issued a temporary fix exe file (.49) which can be found in Post #3934.

How to get the latest version of GCzII:

1. You will find the GCz's version number displayed in the lower left corner of the main screen.

2. If you already have version .47 or newer installed on your device, just replace the existing GCzII.exe file (which can be found in your Program Files\GCzII folder), with the new .49 exe file. Go to THIS POST and extract the executable from the zip. Copy the new .exe over the existing one in the GCz installation directory (\Program Files\GCzII)

3. If you continue to encounter errors while running the program, you may need to empty the contents of the Cache_DB folder (It is located in \Program Files\GCzII, but you might have put it on your storage card.). Try running GCz without doing this first as it might work just fine.

4. If this is your first installation or if you are running a version older than .47, you will need to first install version .47 from Tom's website. You can install it either on your device memory or an SD card.

Make sure you download the correct installation file. The first cab file listed is for touchscreen phones. The . . . STD.zip file (marked as 'for standard') is for non-touchscreen phones.

After you install .47 using the .cab file, copy the .49 .exe file to the GCz program files directory, replacing the existing GCzII.exe file (\Program Files\GCzII).

You should now have version 0.2.35.49 on your device. You can check this by looking in the bottom left corner of the main screen.

" Cache not found " Errors

Several conditions may generate this error:

1. You are not running the latest version. Upgrade as noted above.

2. Your language setting on the geocaching.com website is not set to ENGLISH. Check your setting by going to your account page and clicking on the "Your Account Details" link. The language setting is at the bottom in the "Your Preferences" box.

3. Cached caches stored in the GCzII cache folder (\Cache_DB) may be causing issues. Try deleting the files in this folder.

How to Avoid Being Flamed or Told Off on this forum:

There are a number of people here willing to help you. But to be honest, we seem to answer the same questions over and over again. We'll be glad to help you, but you need to do your part first. Here's what we suggest:

1. Read the last 5 pages of posts and try the things that have been suggested. Most of the time, the solution has been posted recently. If you don't want to take the time to read the last few pages, why should we take the time to restate, again, what we just posted not too long ago?

2. Post the version of GCz that you are using. Believe it or not, there is a chance that you may not have the current version installed.

3. State whether or not you have deleted the contents of \Cache_DB.

4. Confirm that on Geocaching.com, your language is set to "English".

Finally, make sure you have read and followed the instructions contained in this post. Twice. :)

If you've worked your way through the above and are still having an issue, post here using the guidelines above, and we'll be glad to help. Or, go to the dedicated GCzII forum.
