Backup navigation on iPad?

[Bruce Moore]

I have loaded the Navimatics charts on my Ipad2 and am very pleased. However, when I try to use the the Active Captain
Info markers I get no response. Is this because the the IPad doesn't use flash? I cannot access THE CRUISING GUIDE when I am in the Active Captain site. Ideas?

Make sure you have made the ActiveCaptain layer visible.

Tap the i in the white circle in the lower right hand corner of the screen. Tap the ActiveCaptain bar just below Settings. If the Layer Visible switch is OFF, tap it to the ON position.

While you're there, I suggest you hit the Update Now bar. It's best to do this when you have wifi available. It's faster and you won't hit your cellular provider data meter. The update can take several minutes if you haven't done it for a while.

The ActiveCaptain data is stored locally on your iPad, so it can be accessed quickly without having to pull it down from the cloud on demand.

Cheers,

Bruce
