Hi Jose,

I'm not quite sure why its doing this, I guess it might be a connection-related issue where the syncing is becoming interrupted halfway through and is somehow redownloading the waypoints list, but I'm a bit stumped. Does the website still contain the correct full list of waypoints, without duplicates?

To resolve it firstly ensure that the website does have all your waypoints stored correctly. There is a function on the Waypoints page that will search for and delete any duplicate waypoints, which might come in useful. Then clear ALL the waypoints on the phone (Menu/Clear/Clear All Waypoints) - the website holds the master list, which wont be affected by this. Then do a normal Waypoint Sync and the fresh, unduplicated list should appear again on the phone...

Hope it helps!

Cheers,
Stephen
