+Search1128 Posted November 21, 2004 Share Posted November 21, 2004 I just purchased a gps map 60c and also bought city select v6. I loaded the maps on my desktop and then unlocked them according to the instructions in the manuals and the website. It gave me one unlock and I see in the manual that there is the possibility of a second unlock code for a second GPS. What do I do if I want to load the city select on to my laptop ( a second computer) but still use the one GPS? Does that make me use a second unlock code even thought I am using just my one GPS? If I were to ever purchase a second gps would I then have to purchase an additional unlock code? It doesn't seem right to do it that way? Any one know? Any help would be appreciated. The more you can explain the better. Thanks. Kirk out. Quote Link to comment
+BlueDeuce Posted November 21, 2004 Share Posted November 21, 2004 (edited) Open City Select. Ctrl-U. Save off your unlock code where it can be retrieved. You can also retrieve it or print it out from the Garmin Website. Load City Select on the second PC. Enter your unlock code. (Ctrl-U again if necessary) Edited November 21, 2004 by BlueDeuce Quote Link to comment
peter Posted November 21, 2004 Share Posted November 21, 2004 The restriction is just on the number of different GPS units (2) that you can get use with a single purchase of the City Select maps. The unlock code is tied to the serial number of a particular GPS, so the limit of 2 unlock codes restricts you to two GPS units. But the same unlock code can be used on various computers so you can load the maps on your home desktop, work desktop, laptops, etc. Quote Link to comment
thcri Posted November 21, 2004 Share Posted November 21, 2004 Just save your information or you can call Garmin when you have installed it on your other puter. I have it on three computers. The second on the code information did not work and alls I did was call Garmin and they unlocked it for me from the web. murph Quote Link to comment

+Search1128 Posted November 21, 2004 Author Share Posted November 21, 2004 Cool! Thank you to all . Worked like a charm. I ended up having to have Garmin email to me my unlock code. Now all is good. Kirk out. Quote Link to comment
