+Jayeffel Posted February 28, 2020 Share Posted February 28, 2020 (edited) How do I eject my Etrex 20 GPS unit from the main computer which has no place to eject ( iMac) When I connect the unit it takes a little time but shows connected to Garmin Express. There is no icon on the screen such as when I used to connect a device.I see no place on any menu or dropdown list to eject anything. Wha I do is disconnect the cable for the unit and get that warning message about ejecting properly. Edited February 28, 2020 by Jayeffel grammar Quote Link to comment

+Wacka Posted February 29, 2020 Share Posted February 29, 2020 It should show up under Finder>devices , Then hold the mouse over the etrex20 and a menu option to remove it should appear/ Quote Link to comment

The only listings under Finder are "About Finder" "Preferences" "Empty Trash"" Services""Hide Finder" Hide Other""Show All" Quote Link to comment
