+4 Paws And Then Some Posted June 26, 2007 Share Posted June 26, 2007 I have uploaded MapSend maps to two of my eXplorist GPSr's, one of which is now broken. I have a new eXplorist but MapSend tells me I've reached the max allowable GPS units to upload to. How can I get around this? Do I have to uninstall and reinstall MapSend, or won't that work?

Call magellan customer service and tell them the reason you need to register a new unit. They did it for me when I lost my 500 and wanted to use direct route on a new one. Oh, yeah... just ignore the responses that are bound to come about how unhelpful magellan support is. just make sure you call, don't email. Quote Link to comment

+W5IEM Posted July 1, 2007 Share Posted July 1, 2007 So, are you able to install either the MapSend or Topo software onto more than 1 unit? I currently use a Magellan Explorist 500, I am looking at upgrading to the XL, but not sure if I will have to repurchase the Topo software if I do so. Help me out on this one, please!!!

+4 Paws And Then Some Posted July 2, 2007 Author Share Posted July 2, 2007 I uploaded first to my eX 400, then to my eX 500 and only encountered a hurdle trying to upload to a third. Anyway, the third has since been stolen (would it help to post the serial number somewhere?) So I won't need to be phoning Magellan for a while. Quote Link to comment

You can use it for two units (based on their serial numbers). I have used the direct route and topo for both my platinum and my eX 600. Quote Link to comment
