Using The Maps/Garmin Software / Re: Another new guy here
November 19, 2012, 08:22:52 PM
Thanks Boyd.  I actually got the discs from the guy who had the Garmin Rino.  He just threw in a couple of things with it and the maps were some of those things.

I have been comparing the Rino to base camp and it when I zoom in I just see brown (like dirt).  No definition or dirt roads like i see on base camp.  I did check the Rino and the detail is set to maximum.  How do I verify the entire map has been moved over to the Rino?

thanks for the help so far.

Using The Maps/Garmin Software / Another new guy here

Hello guys,
I purchased my first GPS (Garmin Rino 650) and was wondering if you guys could help me out with an issue.  I was able to load the 24k west and south west maps with out an issues.  However, i have a disc image of the 24k national parks and i cant for the life of me understand how to get the map install program to recognize the .iso file or the disc i made with disk utility (I am using a Mac by the way :).)  When i open the contents of the disc i don't see an image file or a gmap file mostly just .exe files (which doesn't do me any good on a mac).  any advice on how to get these national forests onto my gps would be appreciated. 

A side question.  I recently went on a trip to the sequoias and base camp recognized some of the roads up there,  However, when I got up there and used my GPS that level of granularity wasn't there.  There were roads on base camp I couldn't see on the gps.  Is that normal or do i have some settings off on my GPS or something?
thanks.
