I selected the option to load to the Computer Only. So, I ran Map Express a 2nd time, but with the Zumo 550 attached to the computer this time.
#Garmin mapinstall will not open license#
Map Express loads some record or key on the computer that confirms for each device that you have a license to use the maps on that device. The problem, along the lines of Bill's comment, was that Map Express must be run once for each of the devices that you are updating.

Once you back grade (if you choose to do so) then go into your firewall or virus protection & set BaseCamp to not be able to access the internet or it will keep trying to upgrade again.Īdded: if you don't have MapSource installed you really should go online & find the MapSource version 6.16.3 then install & use that, not only for loading maps to your old Zumo, but also for transferring routes to the Zumo GPS (Garmin put out a bulletin to use MapSource to transfer routes to the Zumo 550 due to all the routing corruption & irregularities when using BaseCamp to transfer routes to the older Zumo era devices). Too much for me to type here but there is a number of online write-ups for going back to the older BaseCamp & to the older (properly working) Mapinstall. You have to go in & manually find & remove the current MapInstall files & folders THEN download & install the older older MapInstall. Problem is, it is easy to remove the current BaseCamp then download & install Base Camp 4.6.2 but reverting to the older MapInstall is a real bugger as just downgrading Base Camp won't remove your current (wonky) MapInstall. There is a problem with the newest BaseCamp upgrade (actually a down grade on functions)- & a BIG problem with the newest Map install, so most of us power users have back graded to the older BaseCamp 4.6.2 & the older MapInstall-4.0.4. If you let the Garmin Express do the install it will probably try to only load part of the country or load only Canada & surrounding.Īlso for the 2020.2 to work in the Z-550 it MUST be named Gmappron on the main drive & as Gmapsupp on the SD card (if it is named something else then the Zumo 550 won't read it). Your Zumo 550 won't hold the entire map on the Zumo main drive so it will have to be split between the main drive & the SD card. If you have MapSource installed then that actually works better to install new maps to older Garmin GPS units. If you actually have the 2020.2 then you might get Mapinstall to load it. Well!, you can keep playing with it but that is a problem at times.įirst, make darn sure that your 2020.2 map is in the C/program data/Garmin/Maps folder. When I run MapInstall to select map segments to load on the Garmin and the SD card, the drop down for the map ONLY SHOWS 2019.2. Next, I tried to run MapInstall to load the map to my motorcycle GPS, a Zumo 550 with an SD Card.

I ran BaseCamp on my PC and the I have two maps the old 2019 map and the new 2020.2 map.
#Garmin mapinstall will not open update#
The update was successful and the Nuvi has the new map. I used Garmin Express to download the new maps 2020.2 to the Device and Computer. I have done this before and kept notes of my procedure, but I have run into a puzzle. Onto the next issue, another thread.I am trying to update the lifetime maps in two Garmin GPS devices. AND IT WORKED!!! Woohoo, I am a happy camper. There was only one thing I did differently…… Using BC, with unit connected to the PC, I right clicked the unit/user data, clicked “Install Maps”, went through the MapInstall choices. Created a “Garmin” folder on the SD Card (an absolute must), ensured all the maps were in. now suddenly things are WORKING! Maps (including my own) are installing! Did everything just like I’ve done several times. Ended up doing things I had ALREADY done before with no change!īut WTH……. Tried installing them, STILL would NOT install! Did more research. Had downloaded a couple maps from OpenMapChest. WILL NOT WORK, but, will work using Mapsource. Issue, trying to install maps I own (2008 US Topo & Topo 24k Southwest) using BC & MapInstall. Have used Mapsource and GPSmap 60csx for years, never an issue. As a recap, trying to learn & work with Basecamp & new GPSMap 276cx.
