I'm pretty sure that this has been covered in the past, but I can't find it.I have lifetime updates and have finally gotten arouind to installing thisthing. However, all it offers for map updates is the opportunity topurchase maps for Europe.When I go to Garmin's site and select 'I have Lifetime Updates' it directsme to get Garmin Express and when I go to mymaps after signing on it gives alist of maps each of which has the useful information overlaid by the sameinstruction.Any thoughts on how to either get that thing to work, or how to avoid havingto use it in the first place would be greatly appreciated.MR09.06.14 5:29.

The standard NT maps are what I have on my Nuvi 780.

I'm sure many here with 'newer' model are now wondering whether the lifetime updates for their model will go the same way.Of course it will. With the increasingly generational lifespan ofelectronic products, I can't believe that anyone nowadays would assume'Lifetime' means anything than 'the anticipated functional lifetime ofthe product, as determined by the manufacturer'. That lifetime inyears is in single digits, because of the increasing pace ofinnovation and development. Not to mention that there's no profit inmaintaining usability of an older product, especially in the shrinkingmarket of navigation devices.This isn't a recent development, nor is it confined to Garmin devices.Anyone recall the explosion of ire from the first owners of AppleiPods and iPads, once they discovered the batteries were not intendedto be replaceable?LightByrd11.06.14 14:35.

On this one.I too purchased lifetime updates (76CSx) and when I want to update it forcesme to download Garmin Express, which I did.Every time I run it it correctly finds my device andevery time it says 'server not available-try later.' WTF is going on with these guys.Oh yes, I used an older updater and managed successfully to load CNNA 2015.1into Mapsource, but when I tried to create a map set (2.35GB- my micro SDcard is 4GB) at the end of it all, I get some crazy error message telling meto copy the full message into the clipboard & paste the message into anemail to tech support.How many years do you think I will have to wait before they get around toresponding to me?Again.what is going on with these guys. Their software is the clunkiest Ihave ever encountered.Any suggestions?-Best Wishes,Richard HarisonLightByrd11.06.14 14:37. 'BobW' wrote in messagenews:[email protected] had EXACTLY the same problem! Express recognizes my device and then says'server unavailable-try again later' which I did for 3 days.I solved it by using an older map updater-described in a recent post below.It loaded the new map perfectly to Mapsource (I would assume also Basecamp).it is ' Garmin map updater 3.1.20' It is available on the net. When yourun it.it will download a later version-which works. The problem ariseswhen you want to transfer the map set to your SD micro card.

In my case,the usual procedure of opening Mapsource, zooming out to 1500KM, using themap tool, and then sending to your device, in my case at least, DOES NOTWORK.However- thanks to a very talented software guy at Garmin, CharlesPickens, we solved the problem.The answer is when you send the selected maps to your device-you MUST usethe dropdown box and SWITCH the destination from your device to your microSD card directly.It worked and Charles in my [email protected] 0:56.

Having failed miserably to update the free lifetime maps that comes with this device and tried the various fixes on numerous forums to no avail I eventually managed to to update the maps. I noticed that that the map updates were 7.42GB while the total capacity of the device was 7.02GB with only 242MB free. Inserted 16GB micro SD card, tried download, still no joy, same problems of device starting download but hanging or failing at various stages.
Then noticed that Garmin had a plug in called Garmin communicator plugin x64 which appeared to be required to download maps. Reinstalled Garmin Express and then the additional plugin. Started download, about 3 hours later, success!

30Mb/s download speed, so the pipe on MY end is certainly big enough.It took forever to install Garmin Express, too. I rarely use mywindows7 machine, and downloading 144 updates (just the security ones,not the optionals) went overnight for the download PLUS the 'Do you wantto install?' Crap when I checked in the morning, which took severalhours more. Once I've said YEAH, DOWNLOAD AND INSTALL THIS STUFF itreally shouldn't demand more user input:-( If it needs to restart,then DAMN WELL DO IT!Not going to 'upgrade' to win10, but I think I will swap this machinefor a better once once the income tax is finished - normally on April 13.-Cheers, Bev'Steve Balmer, CEO of Microsoft0, recently referred to LINUX as acancer.
