Tomorrow I will try to just add a segment, don't know how to that yet but think I will figure out. Then I can get the state forest boundaries I need.
Thanks to all

OK..I uninstalled the Garmin Topo USA and now the maps I downloaded work just fine, If I can find one that shows state forest borders I will be in GPS heaven.

THANKS to all the folks who helped me during this ##!!**&%^ frustrating time....

I will search for a data base that has that info, if anyone knows if it exists please pass it on.

Happy New Year

Hello all, Thanks for helping me. Attached are the files I see on the SD card and a screen shot showing what the gps says are on it. Don't know why they do not agree. I can remove Garmin Topo USA again as I think the maps from this site run ok then. The reason I wanted the Garmin TOPO as well is that it shows state forest boundaries and the other maps do not.
I will unistall the Garmin topo right now and see what happens. One of the posts said it may be a file name issue, could I not just rename the darn thing?? The sd card is really tiny and hard to remove so if I don't have to do that it would be better for me. (old guy-73)
Will uninstall and get back. Do I have to uninstall with base camp or just go to the sd card via pc and delete the files?? Thanks again folks

I removed all maps and the reinstalled Garmin Topo USA 2008 and it opened fine on the Oregon.
I used base camp and it took forever (faster way?)

Now I tried to reinstall a file from gpsfiledepot with basecamp "NE USA Topo Part 1", it says it was successfully loaded BUT it does not show in the list of available maps ??

I looked at was was on the sd card with my pc and it shows that it is there along with other map files that do not show.. see attached.

I read somewhere on this forum an map issue with 64 bit files...have to load a 32 bit file first?? Anyone.....

The only files that are displayed on the Oregon are Worldwide DEM basemap and Topo USA 2008 1,2 & 3...nothing else...HELP

Great idea, I will try that as soon as I can figure out how to remove/uninstall the map from gps. Should I use base camp or connectit  to my pc and open file location and delete it?
Thanks

OK....Senior moment here...I can select multiple maps...just checked.

Prob is that maps from this site...the one from PA has more detail than garmin topo 2008, I can see it on base camp but not on the GPS. Sure is frustrating.

The new Oregon 600 is great in all other aspects...except this one. It's very fast and easy to open other windows and do all the things I need to do.

I am a hiker and bow hunter, so far I really like it for those purposes. I hope I can solve this problem (with some help  ha ha)

Thanks

Hello,
I only select one map at a time on the Oregon 600(that is all it allows me to do) The Garmin map shows fine, its the maps downloaded from this site that I cannot seem to use, I can see it in Base Camp but not on the GPS. I doubt Garmin will help with that. Thanks again for trying to help!

reply to #5.
Topo 2008 is Garmin. If by disable you mean choosing only one map on the gps list on, then yes. Please comment on what "disable" means if not what I said. I made a note on the attachment I sent, "Map Files on my Garmin Oregon 600 as viewed via Base Camp softwaree"
Thanks for your help.

Hello,
Please review a screen shot of the files on the gps and also on base camp, see attached. Maybe that would enable you to figure this out for me.
Thanks

The maps do appear in base camp, just cannot show them on the GPS. I do not have city navigator loaded.
If you supply an email address I will send a file that shows that I have loaded.
Thanks for your help.

Hello all,
I would REALLY appreciate help with showing maps on my Garmin Oregon 600.
When I look at the maps stored and then maps I want to show the list is different.
Some topo maps I cannot show.
Is there anyone out there who would be willing to spend a few minutes on the phone with me? This old guy will really appreciate the help.
Thanks
