File converters..... I'm trying to convert a KML to a TRP in order to import into CoPilot. Using Macbook running OS X 10.6.8 (older snow leopard) and I'm having a hell of a time finding a converter that will work with this platform. It seems like everything uses Java, and Java from Oracle is no longer supported on this OS X. So I'm relying on native OS X Java and I'm getting nowhere. I've tried GPSBlabel (wouldn't run) and Route Converter, but Route Converter is designed for Java 7/8, which is not supported on Snow Leopard. Native Mac Java gives me nothing but a command prompt when trying to run Route Converter, and most of the converter options I've referenced on here don't support TRP. Am I really going to have to update my OS X in order to run a freaking file converter? I can do what I need to with Google Maps, but I downloaded CoPilot to be prepared in case I loose service in the middle of the NC mountains. The drag and drop feature for modifying routes on Copilot is just too cumbersome, and I already have all these routes created in Google. Hoping just to import. Any advice is greatly appreciated.
