Map updates

[Hillbilly]

For the life of me I cant get this to work, feel like a dummy as I upgraded it early 2018 but now coming up with an error when trying to load this into car.

Could someone please list the download, extract and update procedure for dummies.

Cheers

Click on the link It will bring up a box with a file name int it and asking if you want to save it or open it, Save it When you have done that go to location and Unzip it to a folder on your HDD

Get an SD card with 32 GIGABYTE CAPACITY Make sure its formatted in FAT 32

Copy the folder you unzipped it to onto the SD card

Put it in the DISCOVER PRO and tell it to update.

If you have a MAC that you are trying to do it on Chuck it in the bin and use a PC

Thanks Hillbilly, i've just been unzipping it directly to an 80gb SD card and it's in EX-FAT.

Ok will reformat and extract to HDD then copy on FAT-32 SD.

Try it with that it might work as it seems some reckon it does Where did you get an 80GB card thats a weird size and it wont format as Fat32 without a special formatting program as Fat 32 only works in Windows up to 32GB cards

Also are you using a PC or a Mac


You should have 2 folders named Mib 1 and Mib2 and a file named Metainfo.2text in the root directory of the card
You can extract it directly to the card OK

If you use Discover Care it does all that directly for you

My bad it is a 32 GB card but apparently not big enough when I try and unzip download into it now comes up with an error and says not enough space on disk. Disk space is 29.7 gb free.

32 gb card IS big enough as I downloaded that file onto one this morning to see if it would do it right Are you sure that like another poster it isnt a 32 MEGABYTE card instead of a 32 GIGABYTE card

What machine are you using because MACS cause more problems than they are worth

My card says 28GB used 1.8GB free

No dice it's still saying : "Error: no data available please insert a source with software. or check the source"

Used a windows 7 machine this time and Fat32 as ive downloaded the file onto 2 different machines. For some reason I get a size error using the win10 machine.

I have the correct files downloaded Mib1, Mib2 and Metainfo.

I suspect that the Scandisk is the issue but i'm sure I used a similar one last time.

I'll pick up another SD card on the weekend and give it one more shot and if it doesn't work just wait for the next update. Thanks for your help.

It's a Discover Pro with the 9.2" screen.

The problem has to be the SD card i'll get a different one.

I had a similar issue a while ago with the message "Error: no data available please insert a source with software or check the source". Turned out to be a download issue with the file not the SD card.
My download missed some files so I retried another go, looked over the file size and numbers and noticed a slight difference.
I now use a 3rd party download program as my internet speed is still trying to cope with Y2K.

I use Xtreme download Manager, as I had the same problems each time previously. Downloaded first time last night, loaded in car on the way to work. 64GB SD Fat32
