About a month ago I got a message that Locus (Pro) had to convert my database into another format. So far, so good.

However, to keep things organized, I use different databases for different countries. Now I have a problem restoring old databases with information from other countries. At this moment my copy of Locus uses data from country A. When I choose to restore a database with data from country B, I get the messages 'process successful' and 'You have to restart application', but after restarting Locus, I still see the waypoints and tracks from country A.
Somebody able to help me?

Just registered at this forum and this is my first post so let me introduce myself:

I travel a lot and have been using Garmin gps-devices since 2005, but about a year ago I switched to Locus Pro on my Samsung Galaxy S Plus with external gps-antenna QStarz BT-Q1000XT. Love the app very much and my Garmin device has been gathering dust since then. I really fail to see why anybody would still use a dedicated gps-device so sell your Garmin-shares now :-)

The only problem I have, is organizing my tracks. The question seems obvious to me, and I'm sorry if it has been asked before, but I searched the forum and couldn't find the answer, so here it is:

On my Garmin I could easily organize my data (and had to do so because of the lack of memory in the device) because waypoints and tracks were all stored in one single file. So when I travelled to e.g. Germany I would clear the memory of my device and import the file Germany.gdb. After travelling around there and recording some more waypoints and tracks, I would export all data, clear the device's memory and import e.g. the file France.gdb.

As far as I see there is no way to work like that in Locus Pro. I can create different categories, and in that way I can import and export e.g. German waypoints in a single file. Each track however is always exported in a single file so for one country I have to select dozens of files when importing and exporting. What makes things worse, is that I cannot categorize tracks. When importing a track, Locus Pro asks me to select a category, but in the Data Manager all tracks show up together under the Tracks button, so I have to scroll through hundreds of tracks from different countries to find the one I'm looking for.
Do I miss something?
