stutzismydog Posted August 15, 2008 Share Posted August 15, 2008 (edited) I had to purchase the Map Update 2009 for my Nuvi 260 on DVD and I have installed it on my computer and also updated the Nuvi 260,...the question is what do I do with the Map Update 2009 file that is just setting on my computer occupying space ?? Should I delete the file or is it to be used for future updates by Garmin ?? Edited August 15, 2008 by stutzismydog Quote Link to comment

Motorcycle_Mama Posted August 16, 2008 Share Posted August 16, 2008 If you have the DVD, you don't need the file on your computer for a nuvi 260. Quote Link to comment
stutzismydog Posted August 17, 2008 Author Share Posted August 17, 2008 Thank you Motorcycle Mama, you have come to my rescue for a second time on the Nuvi 260. All of my previous GPS possessions have been Magellan and over the years and lots of reading forums like this I have been able to survive the ever changing applications of soft ware, hardware up dates on the Magellan products. The Nuvi 260 is the first Garmin GPS that I have purchased and I am now asking a lot of questions from knowledgeable people like you for guidance,...thank you. Quote Link to comment
-Oz- Posted August 17, 2008 Share Posted August 17, 2008 I'm sorry, I read this but was more curious as the answer. I was actually happy it left the maps on my computer because sometimes I want to check and make sure the GPSr will know where its going before I just "trust" it. Quote Link to comment
Motorcycle_Mama Posted August 17, 2008 Share Posted August 17, 2008 (edited) My assumption was that this particular user does not use MapSource (especially with this unit) and didn't install the maps to it. For those who use MapSource and use the update to update the maps in it as well, then the answer would be "Yes", keep the update. Edited August 17, 2008 by Motorcycle_Mama Quote Link to comment
