+RoShin Posted June 20, 2011 Share Posted June 20, 2011 OK, so I inadvertantly (don't laugh) purchased a GC from ebay. The unit is perfect and runs well. Only 1 problem, I don't live in the US! I have an imi file of Australia East and 1 for west, but cant find a way to import them. does ANYBODY know how to do this. Failing being able to load these maps, I may as well go back to using the HTC and sell the GPS on ebay again. Quote Link to comment
+and off we go Posted June 20, 2011 Share Posted June 20, 2011 There is a way to delete all the caches off of the unit and add your own from geocaching.com. I did it with mine I just forgot how I did it. There handbook is on line I believe. Good Luck Quote Link to comment
+CacheFreakTim Posted June 20, 2011 Share Posted June 20, 2011 I was under the impression that you could not change the maps. I read a post on here a long time ago from someone that really looked into it and they came up with no way. They even called Magellan. If someone has found a way to do it that would be awesome to know. Quote Link to comment
+mpilchfamily Posted June 20, 2011 Share Posted June 20, 2011 Everything i've read points at the GC not having the ability to update/change the maps. Quote Link to comment
+medwardl Posted June 22, 2011 Share Posted June 22, 2011 I don't have that particular model but I can use the map from it on mine so I'm wondering if you could use the vantage point software that I use to swap out the map like I do. I have no idea if it would work just an idea. Quote Link to comment
