Expertgps Mapsource Problems?

Recommended Posts

I have the free trial downloaded onto my laptop that I run in my car of ExpertGPS. I just downloaded the BETA update of Mapsource also. I can not get the info to work between the 2 programs. Aslo, when I downloaded the BETA Mapsource, I no longer have a GPS tab to activate tracking? My files are being saved in the .gpx format. I also can not find files in ExpertGPS when I save them. They will show up, but then when I try to open them I get an error message saying ExpertGPS could not open the file document. Please someone help!

It sounds like you're not saving the MapSource files in .gpx but instead .gdb - probably why they don't show up or open in ExpertGPS. You need to manually select .gpx when saving from MapSource - check carefully.

 

Garmin has discontinued traking in recent versions of MapSource suggesting instead to use the free nroute program (I rather like it). Check the Garmin downloads page for a link.

 

Hope that helps a little...
