Garmin Maps and IDs

[Iggie]

Try to rename a folder "Garmin" in "Map"

I did everything and beleive me those maps are not OK. Later I found on some other site a good file and it is working now.

For those having trouble with the images, I think the folder on the SD must be "garmin" not "Garmin"

Try that and report to help others.

On devices 1xxx the additional map is in a folder "Map"

Here I have Nuvi 660 and 1300. Maps on 1300 in internal memory are placed in hidden folder ".System". For 660 it is standard in Garmin folder. I tried with SD card and it is OK If you give name to folder Garmin and place the file gmapsupp.img. Also discovered that you can use both files gmapsupp.img and gmapprom.img on internal memory at the same time, so If you have some free space you will not need SD card to split the maps (for example City Navigatior (gmapsupp.ing) and SCG Route (gmapprom.img)).

Garmin City Navigator Europe v.2012.10 NT (UNLOCKED) Without Scandinavia (Norway, Sweden and Finland) - Includes the capitals of Oslo, Stockolm and Helsinki - 1,96GB

IMG UNLOCKED - Just copy "gmapsupp.img" to SDCard (4GB) -> folder \garmin or to Internal Memory (in this case rename "gmapsupp.img" to "gmapprom.img"). For new models i.e. nuvi 1200, 1400, etc, the folder should be "map" instead of "garmin"

I could be wrong, wouldn't be the first time.

2011.40 is listed on the Garmin site.

Hi Guys, sorry for not being up to date here.

I am buying a Garmin 800 to cycle Land's End to John O'Groats, would the garmin maps on here work ok with the 800 as their is a big difference on price between units with and without maps?

Cheers
