Sorry for the delayed post but if you havn't found a solution I think I can help.

1.What you need to do is select GPS on the top right of the toolbar and click send waypoints.

2.Select the number of the waypoints you wish to send, I find it eaiser to select all 1-300

3.Highlight Geocache Not Found

4.Wipe clean the smart-tag box

5.Set characters to at least 20

6.Finally hit the send button.

Did that help you out?

Do you put anything in the smart tab box,like%name.
By going from 8 to 20 words will it automatically put the name of the cache on the GPS.
I found that I wasn't putting caches not found in the GPS send waypoints page.

Thanks for your help

Copied from GSAK help file.

The special tag %des is provided for backwards compatibility only; use %name instead. Earlier versions of GSAK used the term "cache description" to mean "cache name". However, this caused confusion with the actual cache description. GSAK now uses the terms "cache name" and "cache description", consistent with their intended meanings. Therefore, the special tag for the cache name has been changed to the more mnemonic %name. Although %des still expands to the cache name at this time, there is no guarantee that this will always be the case. You are strongly recommended to use %name in all new applications.
