Using The Maps/Garmin Software / Alabama top map
June 19, 2011, 05:23:01 PM
I tried to download the Alabama topo maps from the custom maps page, but it didn't work! It says it was installed,but it doesn't show up in Mapsource! I downloaded the Mississippi topo without any issues at all. Am I doing something wrong?

When I scroll to area where I know I have maps it shows my waypoint flags that I havenetered for that area, but no topo maps, just black. Not using any sort of nite mode that I'm aware of! On some of the maps I can get more details ie topo, but not all!

I'm having the same problem! When I go to the area I'm searching and zoom to 800ft I get no topo date! The back ground is black! Whats up with that?

Forgive my ignorance, but if I wanted to put the entire DVD onto my SD card would I have to use the map tool and select each region or state or is there an easier way to do it?
I do have a card reader on my laptop so I appreciate the heads up for that, because it was taking a long time to transfer data using the USB!

I have a 4gb micrs sd card. How much will I be able to put onto that card? I would like to load the entire SE 24k topo maps. Is that possible?
Also are the cards read only or can you copy over them?

I purchased the Garmin TOPO 24k Southeast DVD. I tried loading some maps onto my gps, I got a message that said transfering data but when I tried to use it on my last hike there was nothing there!
Is there a way to check what data is on the unit ? On Mapsource it shows in a column on the left that I have 24 maps and list them below! The ones listed aren't the most recent ones I've tried to transfer to my unit. Can you help?
Thanks
