Using The Maps/Garmin Software / GPS vs card reader
August 07, 2012, 08:03:33 PM
  I'm a total newbie at this Map down and uploading.  But I just discovered something that may save others a ton of time.  I somehow lost all the maps I installed to my Garmin 60 csx. Probably due to canceling a upload to the unit and unplugging too soon.  Needless to say I was bummed since each state topo took an hour or more.   I am now reloading everything onto the card using a high speed card reader and it seems to be way faster than transferring directly to the gps unit..   I mean just a few minutes instead of more than an hour..   Probably a no brainer for you veterans but thought I'd mention it for others....   [Mac OS X,  Garmin Map install, Garmin map manager ]
