MacDive Forums

Nick,

I have downloaded a bunch of dives, all of which took place in the Cayman Islands. On the left side of the MacDive screen under the countries heading, Cayman Islands is shown twice, with some dives allocated the first Cayman Islands "country" and some to the second Cayman Islands "country". How can I get them all into one "country" and delete the other?

One way to do it is to rename one of them slightly (I had USA and U.S.A.) and them select all the dives from the one you want to delete and change the site on them. After you do that, the incorrect country should have 0 dives then just delete it.

As above, that will resolve it. The most likely issue is there is a trailing whitespace at the end of one (MacDive doesn't deal with this currently).

Ah, the offending trailing white space has now been removed. I did it manually by going into the dive sites are moving the space and now all dives are now under one "Cayman Islands" country. How do I delete the other "Cayman Islands" country that now has no dives associated with it?

Jason

Go to sites and delete any sites that have it associated. As above, you'll see they have zero dives. The list view might be easier.

In the thumbnail view, you can click the X in the top right corner for any sites belonging to that country. In the list view, select them all and choose File -> Delete Items, or command + delete.

Perfect, thanks.
