Title: Loading Maps to Dakota 10
Post by: Terry Koopman on February 03, 2011, 01:34:46 PM
I have just downloaded a topo map of Nebraska and transferred it to my GPS via MapInstall for Macs.
I see it in Map Information>Select map. When I enable it all I see is a  Blank screen with a +/- in the corner and a blue triangle in the center. The scale of miles seems to change, but no map.

Are you actually in Nebraska, inside the boundaries of the map? How far in did you zoom? When you connect the GPS to your computer and look inside the Garmin folder, how large is the gmapsupp.img file?

Thanks Boyd. I am in Nebraska. Out of frustration, I did a hard reinstall and started over, and everything seems to be working now. I must have installed the map before Mapinstall or something.
Thanks for the quick reply.
