You know I’m not the only one who is frustrated. Garmin folks, you have to get it together… Please. Safely remove the SD-card once the file has finished copying. Zumo 595LM, use the folder name Map with capital M instead of the Garmin Create the folder on the SD-card if it does not already exist. MapManager copies maps and unlock codes into the right place to be accessible by MapInstall and Training Center. The map must be placed in the Garmin folder of the SD-card. MapInstall installs map onto your Garmin device. The 4.2.2 version was completely unstable on the new iMac, so after a web search I found out there had been several updates since 4.2.2. The map will not work if you put the file in the Garmin folder of the GPS device itself.

Ironically, I did not receive any notice on the earlier version of BC (4.2.2) that an update was available, even after selecting Check for Updates. Seems to have become a bit more stable now, however I have not tried to connect a Garmin device and upload routes. Within the first 15 minutes of use BC crashed four times. But, BaseCamp is still about as slow as it was on my ten year old iMac. (BTW, I spent 30 years as a product manager responsible for complex medical imaging devices, so I do feel I have a sense of what makes a decient UI.) I just updated from a ten year old iMac to a new iMac 4.2 GHz i7, 32 GB RAM, 3TB Fusion Drive - very fast machine. I keep hoping Garmin will do an overhaul of this aged, unintuitive, overly complicated and frustrating application, but I am disappointed with each new release/update. I have been using Garmin devices for many years - BaseCamp for the past 10 years. Then they said I should ask Apple about it.I'm now doing my own trials on another mac to try revert.

Support at one time came back to me with a "fix" to do a backup, uninstall & re-install (first problem report was I coud not do a backup!).

Also support admitted thay don't have a mac! The development staff does obviously and apparently tried to "duplicate my problem", but never really answered my questions like if they had started at 4.8.7 and then did an update - I think only working with a fresh install (which would lose my data). Basically said that SW develpment could not tell me what their install routine does inside the OS so I could get files from a Time machine backup to revert to the old version and save my data. Support was responsive but unwilling to do anything about it to research a work around to save my data. The program now fails to export files to an internal volume, even to backup your library. Changed mouse-wheel functionality to zoom in and out. Improved map projection for many map products.


Main Features: - Improved memory issues when running on Windows 7.

Perhaps there is an error in UK OSM data which prevents it to export to IMG file or something like that.īTW.Many people don't like Basecamp, but I have never found an alternative for computer based routing that have the database capabilities, and recently I have been looking hard. This software will not work unless you already own a MapSource product. I guess there is no other solution for that.

I need the OpenTopo map in a couple of weeks, so will wait and try later to see what is included in the ZIP file. Tried exporting OpenTopo and Leisure and has the same issues (slightly different area is blank though).Įxported a cycling map (Openfietsmap lite) of a different UK area from BBBike a few weeks ago and works fine. For Garmin Zumo 595LM, use Settings Map & Vehicle myMaps. You should also uncheck the built-in map if the map areas overlap. Tried to export the area I need from BBBike and for some reason half of the area shows up as blank white squares (pretty much only half of it shows up OK). Turn on your Garmin GPS with the SD-card inserted and go through the following screen navigation: Touch the Map Info button at the bottom and check the box beside the map to enable it. The contours (when uploaded to my device - Edge 1000) appear on the list of available maps and they work fine when enabled, but the main topo map is not there obviously. Downloaded it yesterday and there is only one IMG file called "great-britain_contours.img" (75.79 MB) inside the ZIP file.
