    @Roger1109,
    Thanks for extra info mate.

    @Catymag
    Yes i have tried this as it should work but still the 62s wont pick up the map, although the "same" map works fine in the 3790T with no problems. I'll keep working on it, someone may have come across this in the forums.
    Cheers

    At first I believed the problem may be with your firmware version.... I have the same issue with additional maps not showing up on my Nuvi 5000 - It is at firmware v4.10, and it does not recognize any maps except gmapprom.img & gmapsupp.img - Unlike my 760 and my 3760 which both can display this map without incident.

    But after you mentioned deleting maps... I think your firmware version may not accept all those maps. I keep the excess maps (those beyond what my firmware recognizes) in a Directory called MAPS, where I store them using their original names (USA Topo v5, etc.) so I can retrieve them or rename them with a PC or tablet at a moments notice just by stuffing the SD card (or mini-card) and renaming them to gmapsupp.img)

    If you have used gmaptool, I also found I could make maps NOT show up on the Nuvi's MAP list if I'd re-coded it to be TRANSPARENT (Gmap tool feature) - a mistake I found through experimentation.

    BTW- Has anyone found the Mapsource DVD version of this map?

    On a previous project I combined parts of different maps (City Nav 2013 & SE Topo) into one large file with Full Navigation capabilities PLUS water features (swamps, wetlands and Bogs) shown with pretty map graphics. I'd like to do the same but with Topo v5 and City Nav 2014.x.

    Has anyone found US Topo v5 - the one installable with mapsource? I'm looking to combine it with City Nav 2014 maps to make a custom map and mapsource is the easiest way for me.

    Note by MOD: moved and merged in correct 3rd.

    I saw the U.S. Topo v5 posted recently.... but I'm looking for the original US TOPO v5 with MAPSOURCE.

    Has anyone found it?
