I'm using a Mac to view your maps with Basecamp.  Even with the Preferences set to Auto Routing, the outlined route is  straight from marked points.  Thanks.

Sunk.  After some hours trying to wade through Basecamp and MapInstall, everything seems to proceed OK except when I turn on my Garmin, no map displays. Don't know where to turn to from here.  YouTube?

No success with this California map either: http://www.gpsfiledepot.com/maps/view/28/.  Also, should I be able to see where in the Garmin files these Hawaii and California maps are being stored?  I can't find them which makes me wonder if they're being installed at all.  Thanks.

That's the Hawaii map I installed.  Is the reason it doesn't show up on the Garmin screen is because I'm in California?  I'm downloading a Mac version California map now to see if I can get it to work.

I did figure out where to select enable or disable maps from Setup, but afterwards no map shows when I click Maps on the main page.  I live in California.

I figured out what you meant previously and downloaded a Mac version of portions of Hawaii.  MapInstaller opened and I saw my Garmin 450 and the installed memory card.  I selected the Garmin and installed the maps.  When completed, I checked the the Garmin but couldn't find the maps.  They weren't in the memory card either.  I disconnected the Garmin and turned it on, chose Maps, but no list of maps showed up.

I'm new to GPSFileDepot website and GPS units.  I thought MapInstaller installed maps from this webiste to my Garmin.  So how do I install Mac formatted maps then?  I don't have BaseCamp installed.  I loaded the Mac version of MapInstaller under Loading The Maps With A Mac on the link I previously listed and followed the instructions.

After following the instructions to install the Mac version on my MacBook Pro (http://www.gpsfiledepot.com/tutorials/how-to-load-maps-on-my-garmin-gps-unit//) and then connecting my new Garmin 450 to my Mac with an empty 1 GB micro SD card installed, opening the MapInstaller program immediately shows this message:

No Garmin Maps Found
We could not locate any Garmin map products to install. Please make sure you have a Garmin Map Product installed and run this application again.

Clicking OK on the message closes the program.  How do I remedy this?  Thanks.
