Maximum number of gpx files exceeded - On my GPSMAP 62s | Garmin (Resolved)

Ive been very happy with my GPSMAP 62s | Garmin until now.  Ive got maybe 180 geocaches on the GPSMAP 62s | Garmin and now Im getting this message "maximum number of gpx files exceeded". It doesnt look like anymore caches are showing up on the GPSMAP 62s | Garmin when I press " send to gps", even though it says they were sent. Has anyone else experienced this and what can be done about it other then deleting the found caches?


GPSMAP 62 (series)
    2,000 GPX files
    2,000 waypoints
    5,000 geocaches
    200 routes, 250 points per route
    200 saved tracks
    2,000 archive tracks*
    10,000 points per track
    100 custom map tiles
    250 BirdsEye Imagery files
    Approximately 3,000 mapping segments

ANSWER::

Garmin/GPX Geocaching files


Caches are loaded to the unit by placing one or more gpx files into the Garmin/GPX folder of the unit. A gpx file may contain information one or more than one cache. The total number of gpx files is limited to 200, and the permitted total number of caches represented in the 'one or more' gpx files varies with the unit model. A unit might handle 2000 or 5000 caches. Filenames can be whatever you prefer so long as they retain the *.gpx suffix.
