El mundo seria diferente si la gente fuera menos egoista y compartira como lo has hecho vos. Todavia hay esperanza. It is a great tip, I had tried with this download before but it was necesary to follow your steps… THKS. You can get free maps from Central America in cenrut. Your fantastic dude! A more simple way to install: create the Garmin folder in the Program Files and copy whatever file you want into it.

Then rename that file to MapSource. Thanks a lot really! I got your post exactly at the right moment when I needed it- I was stucked with the problem and not knowing what to then ….

Here is a free and rather good map of Iceland: ourfootprints. Great Tips. I could not access canadian POIs. I could also access canadian POIs. Dit kan ik niet uitpakken en op het bestand main. Setup will now terminate. So maybe you can help me. I try to install a new version of mapsource 6. All the above instruction are working.

I load the above australia map into the mapsource and it is woring. However when I transfer it to SD card and put it inside my garmin , it does not work. Can you assist? The message and instruction on how to obtain and operate the mapsource was very clear.

De verdad que eres un genio… Tenia varios dias tratando de instalar esta aplicacion. Verify that the file exists and that you can access it. I see that you have a lot of european maps. I just need the french one. My garmin nuvi T is already pre-loaded with North america. Do you think I can add just the french map? Do you know how I can hold of a french map?

If you for some reason need to install MapSource on your computer, there is a workaround trick to get MapSource for free. Garmin officially provides a MapSource version update download, which will only work if there is previous version of MapSource installed.

If no MapSource software is detected, the MapSource update setup will abort with error message saying that it cannot find previous version of MapSource. Follow the following trick to hack the setup file so that it can be used to install MapSource clean and fresh without any prior installation of MapSource.

Note: The sequence to execute Main. There is a catch however. Garmin only provides updates, no actual installation packages. Therfore below I describe two ways how you can install Mapsource legally nevertheless. I recommend to use the most uptodate version by Garmin as of writing this is 6. Earlier versions of Mapsource also 6. Use at least 6. Note that while Basecamp shows contourlines, Garmin Mapsource doesn't.

Hence for general use I recommend Garmin Basecamp instead. I recommend installing a second map good idea is to install the map legend so you can get to know the layout!!! Essentially 1 map would be enough also.

Please update to at least 6. Simply unpack a mapsource update see links above , run MAIN. Now you can decide which of the two versions you want to use. I am a bit confused, you mention basecamp 4. Oh yeah — got confused with the OSx version which is 4. You must be logged in to post a comment. Please support Openmtbmap by donating a few bucks.

Install Garmin Basecamp and maybe Mapsource. Contents 1 Install Garmin Basecamp: 1.
