Qustion: I'm having problems actually seeing a map I sent to my etrex. I select the map in map source, send it to the deivice, and when I go to map information-show all it's not there. I've got a 2gb sd card in the device so there is more than enough space. Any idea?
Reply: I had the same problem and after numerous attempts I got it to work. The difference was one of two (or both) steps: (1) Load the sd card in the mac (download map to your Mac rather than direct to the HCX); and (2) When you get to Step 7 of Rex's "loading the maps with a mac" tutorial (Goto the TUTORIAL link on this website) you should see a picture of your map on Mapinstall. You need to actually highlight (as in a copy/paste absent the paste) the whole map or a portion of the map are interested in. Only then proceed with the Mapinstall prompts. Take SD card out of your mac, install it in your hcs and hopefully you're good to go.
