In step 3.a), you go to Mapsource Utilities/Manage Map Products and a dialog box is displayed, the map is listed, you select it, and then click the buttom Unlock on Line (This is the only button available related with unlocking) and then it goes to a web page, I installed Comunicator, then at the end of the page my garmin device is detected and aks for serial number and product key. I dont know what are this numbers, would you help me. I cant unlock the map i want to. Thank you.

In step 3.a) maps are listed in first tab (top) named "Map Product Informaction", you do not select it, and do not click button "Unlock Online", but...
When you have this window opened, at top select another tab named "Unlock Regions" click on button "Add" and in upper filed paste unlock code generated with keygen

All maps that are working on GPSMAP 60CSx could be used on Oregon 450
If you don't have MapSource of these maps, and if they are not unlocked completely, you will have to create new UNL file for them or
unlock maps using this procedure

Great work !

The unlock process as in Step 3A has worked well for me - but I found there is one trap for new players. I needed to install each map via its SETUP.EXE, then open MAPSOURCE. It gives a warning that the new map is unlocked . . .just ignore that and proceed. Go to Utilities/Manage Map Products, and select Unlock Regions. Then click Add and enter the code from Jetmouse in the Add Unlock Region box that appears.

Thanks to everyone who has contributed

I have unlocked the Mid East map 2010.2. When going to MapSource, I can find it in Utilities....Manage Map product.

But I can't transfer/export it to my Garmin 1240.

Hello, I tried following your guide but I ran into a bit of trouble

I'm trying to send 'City Navigator Europe NT 2011.20' to my Nüvi 350.

I've created an unlock code with 'JetMouse Garmin Keygen v1.5 with Checksum Fix'

When I open 'Mapsource v6.16.3 Special (Patched)' the map shows up as 'unlocked'

But there is no map on the left side of the screen under the tab 'Maps' in MapSource.
And when I try to send it to my device ('Transfer' --> 'Send To Device...') I get the following error:

"To transfer data to your device, select maps or create waypoints, routes or tracks."

But there is no map to select

Did something go wrong with unlocking the map or is there something else I am overlooking?

if you cant see the map probably you havent installed it correctly or there is a problem with FID and it doesnt show in MS
check it with this tool you find here post 113
