They are evidently not as compatible as the older models.How do I install Garmin Express on Windows 10?

#GARMIN MAPSOURCE FOR WINDOWS 10 UPDATE#

If no update is available, you will need to use Basecamp as described above.īut, not to burst your bubble, users are reporting a variety of problems exchanging routes with the 2400 series. If so, you can choose the option to install the files on both the computer and GPS. After getting your 2460, see if a free update is available. But you must install maps on your computer to use Mapsource. Basecamp will read the map directly from your 2460 while its connected. Neither program will be of much use without maps though. IF you also want Mapsource, download and install it AFTER Basecamp. Basecamp will do all the same things and it’s free. The only mapsource files that ever were there were updates (which in fact are the whole program anyway).

Nothing has been removed from their site. But I still tend to avoid it and use Mapsource (or direct file transfers) unless there’s no other way to accomplish what I want. Took me awhile to understand the whole “concept” of Basecamp, but I guess they took a page from Apple’s iTunes book where you have a library and create playlists to organize things as you like.īasecamp seems to be pretty fast and stable now, so they have come a long way.

Last year one of the developers (from the same forum referenced in the article) said they would really like to update Mapsource to support the new models, but realistically he didn’t think they would ever get around to it.īut I’m like you Rich, I’m used to Mapsource and it seems easier to use. Mapsource does not fully support the new handheld models (62s, Oregon x50, Montana) because they are storing waypoints differently. It’s been pretty clear for awhile that this was coming. I suspect Garmin just doesn’t have enough programmers to support everything they’re doing, and this was the logical thing to cut.

#GARMIN MAPSOURCE FOR WINDOWS 10 SOFTWARE#

This is some really old Garmin software that they have completely removed from their own website. Geez, I still use nRoute myself on Windows 7 and it works great. They just aren’t going to improve it further, and they won’t fix it if Windows 8 (or whatever) breaks it. It’s still there and you can continue using it just like you always have. Well if you use Mapsource and like it, there’s no reason to say “crap”. What does MapSource still do well that BaseCamp doesn’t? And what, if anything, do you like about BaseCamp? Chime in below. So I’d like to crowdsource a bit more detail here, asking our readers a couple of questions. And it does bring new functionality not found in MapSource, like the ability to download and transfer BirdsEye imagery. It has improved quite a bit, but I’m still getting used to it.

It is simple, intuitive and fast, whereas the new kid on the block – Basecamp - is complex and, at least early on, was slow as molasses. I still have a soft spot in my heart for MapSource. You are of course welcome to keep using MapSource, we will keep it on the website for the foreseeable future. …MapSource has not been worked on in quite a while, and there will be no new releases of that software. A Garmin developer let the cat out of the bag yesterday in a post on the Garmin forum… Alas, Garmin has stopped development on their MapSource mapping program – no further releases are planned.
