Hi all, I'm a new member and having trouble downloading a Trek to my Samsung tablet (
Nuytsland Nature Reserve). I click on the download button which takes me to 'Map Data Downloads' where I select OziExplorer and click on Download. An advise comes up telling me I will be prompted to save download. That screen then closes but when I go to
check the download it tells me it has been unsuccessful. Any help would be appreciated.

Hello Rob
I just tried on Galaxy S3 Tab using the supplied "Internet" Browser App (icon a blue earth) and the download failed for me also.
I then tried using Firefox browser and it worked so it would appear the issue is with the "Internet" Browser App.
So as a workaround would suggest downloading Firefox Browser app (free) (or Google Chrome (assume that works but haven't tried).
Not sure if it is something missing at ExplorOz end - will advise David and see what he says.
Cheers
Greg

Thanks Greg, Firefox did the trick but when I try & open the download I get 'cannot open file' - any ideas?
I use the tablet with OziExplorer for navigation.
Cheers
Rob

I am having difficulty with widows explorer on PC and Samsung Galaxy as
well as Samsung phones for a number of web sites. So I switched to google chrome with no issues.
