Thanks Boyd. Downloading basecamp from the link you gave me (the Garmin site) worked. I had originally installed it from the App Store. Once I installed it, the download files/folders became a file as you mentioned. Once I double clicked on it, it installed and I was able to see the map in basecamp.
Thanks again.

Hey sockmonkey, thanks for all your hard work on creating these maps. I posted the following question in another thread, then found this thread which is specific to what I'm challenged with. Your one reply to someone had me hopeful, but I'm still stuck.

I downloaded the CA-CentralProvTopo to my Mac. After downloading, I have the attached directory structure/content. In a prior post, you mentioned renaming CA-CentralProvTopo to gmapsupp.img and copying this file to the sd card. Where I'm stuck is there are multiple CA-CentralProvTopo entries (files and folders). So I'm not quite sure what to do.

Any help would be supper appreciated!

So, I'm a newbe.....and apparently new to following instructions.

I've downloaded Basecamp for Mac and downloaded CA-CentralProvTopo.gmapi (Central Ontario)

When I open the directory I see the attached directory structure.

The instructions "How To Load .img Files Into MapSource or BaseCamp With MapSetToolkit" says if I don't have a .TDB file, then MapSetToolkit to load the .img file. I don't have either a .TBD or .IMG file, so that will not work.

I reviewed "How To Open Maps In Garmin BaseCamp". The first part (Seeing If The Map Is Loaded In BaseCamp) isn't applicable as I don't have an install program in the download. The second part (Opening "Normal" Maps In BaseCamp) doesn't seem to work either as I don't see the downloaded map in the drop down (see second image). I didn't really expect to see it there since there was no install option with the map, but though I would try.

So, can someone help me out as to what I'm doing wrong?
Thanks for any assistance!
