Ok I had an 1197c and recently got a Helix 12. I transferred all way point over (or so I thought). Last weekend when fishing I realized that there where some that where not no there. I had my 1197 set on picture mode so when I saved a waypoint it would also take a pic. Now the waypoints I think I am missingnats the ones that had the pic and waypoint. Is there something I did wrong? I don't have the 1197 anymore but I do still have the ad card I saved the waypoints off of. Not sure if the pics are on it. Really needed these waypoints.

Waypoints are saved in the unit's memory. Snapshots are written directly to a memory card.

Not related in any way other than a snapshot is a picture file and along with it on the memory card is a location file that will display a thumbnail snapshot on the chart view when you are at the waypoint.

If you did not Export all your waypoints to the memory card, you don't have them. They are never written directly to a memory card when saved.

That's why I don't understand why they are not showing up on my a Helix, because right before I got rid of the 1197 I went in and exported all waypoints to my sd card. Then when I got the Helix I put the sd card in and uploaded but some of them are not there.

Load the data from the memory card to HumminbirdPC and see if all are there.
