    Guide Guide Unlocking Garmin MapSource City Navigator maps

    Unlocking Garmin MapSource City Navigator maps
    (CNEU 2010.30, CNNA 2010.40, CN Australia & NZ 2010.30, CN Brazil 2011.10, ..., and all newer versions)

    cf md

    As all MapSource City Navigator products from Garmin have different file structure from other "classic" products, newer releases also installs MapSource program which does not accept keys generated with JetMouse, You have to do some preparetions and modifications for unlocking.

    This different structure is visible on first sight as this products are not installed in "C:Garmin" folder but in "C:Documents and SettingsAll UsersApplication DataGARMINMaps" on Windows XP, or in "C:ProgramDataGARMINMaps" on Vista or Windows 7.
    Another way to determine if products is using this "new" structure is to start MapReverseConverter and to see if it is listed in "Installed Maps".
    Only maps with this "new" structure are listed in program.

    All this maps could be unlocked in MapSource up to version 6.15.7 using code generated with JetMouse keygen without any extra procedure, but if your MapSource is newer, you will have to install version 6.15.11 (6.16.1) and overwrite it with patched version.
    You can see MapSource version in Help -> About window.
    You don't have to install new MapSource if Your version is 6.15.7 or older after installation of City Navigator.
    If you want to generally unlock all installed maps with "Garmin unlocker" (all.bat) you should not have installed ANY MapSource product with this "new" structure.
    "Installed Maps" window in MapReverseConverter MUST be empty.
    Using Garmin unlocker (all.bat) with such maps installed will PERMANENTLY DESTROY maps.
    You have to reverse convert with MapReverseConverter and uninstall all original versions of converted maps before using Garmin unlocker.

    General procedure to unlock MapSource City Navigator maps:

    1. Download and install MapSource City Navigator

    Hello!
    i want to know if this procedure is still valid or if the Mapsource v6.16.1 Special (patched) allows to do the same (to unlock the newest maps from Garmin) in only one step.
    Thanks.

    It works with all MapSource versions (no need to have patched version if doing full unlocking - Unlock All - with Garmin Unlocker - 3. b)

    Hm, just downloaded CN2011.10 as I did some months earlier with the CN2010.10 - JetMouse seems to work fine and the map is displayed in the MapSource 6.15.11, but exporting a map to an oregon device only works for the 2010 not for the 2011 maps ?!
    Any ideas what I did wrong?

    Thanks,
    /\/\.

    I think, this is the version I have used and which worked fine with earlier firmware versions of my oregon device. I fear, garmin has "improved" its new firmware of its oregons

    Anyhow, I'll retry it using the link you've offered - thanks!

    Used method 3b and got City Navigator map Europe 2011.1 working on MapSource 6.13.7. Then tried Mapsource v6.15.11 Patched and all appears to work a treat. Many thanks

    Does not work for me - when I try to select an installed map, I get empty list and I can not select a map to reverse convert

    EDIT: Pressing 'uninstall' gives me full list of my installed maps though

    EDIT 2: I am probably trying to reverse convert a map in old format hence I cannot select it...

    If your map does not appear in list of reverseconverter than it is already in "old" format and could be directly unlocked with GarminUnlocker (all.bat)

    You have to reverse-convert only maps if they appear in MapReverseConverter list
