STILL HAVEN'T MANAGED TO GET MY COMPUTER TO RECOGNIZE MY OREGON 600T!
Can anyone help??

Thanks,

Scott

Awesome! Now if I can just get my PC to recognize the Oregon 

Thanks

We are on a cycling trip from Alaska to Argentina. I own an Oregon 600t which was a wonderful thing until we crossed into Mexico. I purchased an Asus laptop specifically to use for photos and loading maps to my Garmin. In the last three months I have tried everything (keep in mind good Internet is maybe once a week) to get my Garmin to be recognized by my computer and to load maps to BaseCamp.

As for getting my computer to recognize my Garmin...I have gone through the tutorials and have followed all the steps without luck. Any advice would be appreciated.

The map I am trying to load into BaseCamp is : World Shaded Relief : gpsfiledepot.com/maps/view/277  Every time I try to load BaseCamp tells me "unexpected error while importing".

I must admit that I spent no time with my unit before we left on the trip. Am know kicking myself for thinking I could learn as I went. My Garmin has become a useless tool to me down here and the paper maps we have assembled are absolute garbage. Needless to say I would love to resolve this ASAP as on bicycle getting lost means a lot of extra miles and stress on our relationship

I should also add that I am a Mac user who is now trying to figure out this PC so it may be as simple as I have installed drivers wrong or need to activate something I haven't yet found???

Thanks for any advice or help you can offer -
