Likely you have filled all of memory (inadvertently).

The trick is simple but not obvious.
(1) In the 60 setup, choose the appropriate geocache "symbol" you want
(default "chest" is fine)

(2) BEFORE downloading to the gps, highlight all of the geocaches, and
then change the symbol they are assigned so that it matches the one the
gps is expecting.

(3) When you finally hit the send to gps button, all waypoints that have
the geocache symbol associated with them will show up under geocache, and
all others will show up under waypoints.
