+camelli25 Posted January 25, 2015 Share Posted January 25, 2015 I bought the TOPO 24K Florida map from Garmin and installed in on my sd card (8GB). The card shows up as mass storage when plugged into the computer. The card is installed in the garmin folder on the card. When I turn the eTrex30 on I only see the basemap. When I go to setup > map > map information I only see the following maps: baseman worldwide, topo map for Germany Rhineland-Palastinate and digital globe demo. All three maps are enabled. But the TOPO 24K from the sd card does not show up. How can I get the eTrex30 get the map to recognize? Any tips? This is driving me crazy and I been working on it for the 3+ hours. Thanks in advance. Quote Link to comment
+camelli25 Posted January 26, 2015 Author Share Posted January 26, 2015 Thanks, sussamb. I will try to reformat it and see if that helps. Quote Link to comment
+ecanderson Posted January 27, 2015 Share Posted January 27, 2015 Careful .. on the prior generation, 'Garmin' was case sensitive. Probably still is. I see 'garmin' in your post, so ... Quote Link to comment
+camelli25 Posted January 29, 2015 Author Share Posted January 29, 2015 The card was FAT32 but to be sure I reformatted it. Still does not work. The map is downloaded directly from the garmin website. It installs automatically on the sd card due to insufficient space on my gps (as I have the other map installed there). I did not alter anything on the sd card after the installation. It still does not work. I would try to uninstall the germany map on the eTrex but I can't find any info on how to do that. I guess I will send a message to the garmin support and see if they can help me. Quote Link to comment
