No other software that I use is this difficult and complex to update! Not even close! Sorry for the editorial comment. I am comfortable working with my computers and my Garmin GPS's but I've got to say trying to install maps in Basecamp is a totally frustrating and annoying experience. I have searched Garmin websites and Basecamp forums, and have literally spent hours groping around trying to install maps. I have spent two days trying to figure out the installation process. I have product codes, unlock codes and a whole bunch other North America Map information, I've tried connecting my GPS to the computer but for the life of me I cannot figure out how to get my North America Maps installed in Basecamp. I downloaded Basecamp a couple of days ago and now I am having the same problem of trying to figure out how to download my North American maps. So now it is four years later and I just purchased a brand-new MacBook Pro. But how I did it, I cannot remember and have not a clue. When I first downloaded Basecamp I somehow downloaded North American maps. If you prefer raster topographic maps, you can also download BirdsEye Select maps and pay only for the data you download.įor manuals, videos and other helpful information visit the Support Center.I have been using Basecamp for years on my Mac Book Air.
