and look at how you must rename the img file

or the map is locked or has a wrong name

Well I followed the same procedures you taught me before.
1. Get serial and use jetmouse and generate key.
2. Launch mapsource and unlock it under map product manager.
3. navigate using explorer and delete the old map maunally.
4. in map source I select to copy to device and it completes fine.

This is correct?

yes,but it depends if you dont have a device with last firmware that requires a gma file in your receiver, if you have this new kind of firmware, you must unlock the img before copying in gps with unlocker

Hi just a quick question I believe you can only run 2 maps at the same time, can you put a 3rd one on the sd card say in a nuvi and name it gmapprom1.img ( I believe you can do that) and then select it in the settings map info as the active map and disable the other map gmapprom.img

Hi Caty,

Could you tell me if there is a way to prevent Garmin from freezing when using the browse map feature on my nokia 5800. There is no problem with freezing when using for navigation. I have checked RAM and there is plenty available.

Are here some Garmin XT settings that need changing?

Thanks in advance

Peter
