Mapsource 6.12.2.0 Update

[+LandRover]

Anone know where to find the update on garmin's website. For some strange reason when I check for updates it shows that 6.12.2.0 is available but I'm not able to get the update to run.

 

Thanks

I have tried to load this 2 times. It crashed my computer both times. I downloaded it twice to different folders with the same results. Is anyone else having trouble with this update?

What OS do you have? Win2K, XP, XP Media Edition, Vista?

XP Media

Thanks for the heads up then . . . I have XP Media on this DELL laptop and that OS is incompatible with Palm's Desktop software. HotSyncing my Palm causes the computer to crash unless I close all other programs and log in as Administrator . . .

 

Maybe the new Mapsource update is also not compatible with that OS . . .

I'm using XP Home, and have MapSourse ver 6.12.3 and it is working fine

I killed every app running and even killed all the memory resident apps. Log in as administrator, no change. Still crashes in the same place. I will call Garmin and see what they say....

Guess what? It loaded the new update even though it crashes... I went to submit a call to Garmin, opened Mapsource to varify the version I had been running, and it shows 6.12.3... much to my surprise. I have gone through the list of new additions and it looks so far like everything is there and working.

 

I still submitted a problem report to Garmin, we will see what they say,

I just received my 60CSx today. The included Mapsource disk was something less than 6.12.2. I ran the "Check for Software Updates" from the Mapsource program "Help" menu. The latest update it said was available was 6.12.2. I downloaded and installed that update, then I went to the link posted on this forum for 6.12.3...downloaded and installed it with no problems.

 

AND...I am running Windows XP Media Edition...so that's not an issue.

That's likely the firmware version on your GPSr.
