    Map update 2013.30 now available
    Oh good, now I can really try out my new 150Mbit/s internet connection :D

    2013.40 now available. You need to use Garmin Express to update.

    Why do they insist on messing with the update software? I can see no way of downloading the complete map set, as it only offers me the chance to update UK & Ireland, as there's not enough room on the basic device's memory. With the old Map Updater I usually downloaded, and locally installed (for use in Basecamp) the whole map set, and then separately installed UK & Ireland to the main memory and the rest to the SD card using MapInstall, but I can't see any option to do that there. Grrrr.

    EDIT: Uninstalled that pile of junk and currently downloading using good old Map Updater 3.2.2

    Did that work for you Alun?
    Do you have a link to Map Updater 3.22 ?

    Thanks

    Yes, worked fine

    http://download.garmin.com/lmu/GarminMapUpdater.exe

    Strangely, reading various forums, there seem to be some people who do get the options to install different regions, and the option to install to PC as well when using Garmin Express

    I have "Full coverage of Europe (2013.30)" downloaded, but now its telling me the download available is "Western Europe (2013.40)" I'd prefer to download the full coverage map as that's the subscription I've got, not just Western Europe.

    Is this the same for everyone?

    Downloading 2013.40 at the moment using MapUpdater 3.12
    This overcame problems with DotNet4 Client.
    I got the option of all or various European regions


  • Registered Users Posts: 45 WDR


    Aha. I was going through the Lifetime Updater, not Map Updater 3.2.2. Now installing all maps of Europe to PC, and Western Europe to my nulink 1695 with Map Updater.

    Sometimes the persistence pays off. Even with TomTom I have to keep pusing the same errors over & over. But they get done...;)


  • Registered Users Posts: 6,785 ✭✭✭CrowdedHouse


    Well there's just a screenshot of three I reported last in August 2010 - no action on any.

    No 3 that you can see there is the worst. I've been reporting since 2006/7, a third of the island is missing. You think you're driving across the sea.

    Every map in the world except Navteq/Garmin seems to have it right .

    Do you have to pay to update your maps or can someone give me a link to the latest updates. Thanks

    You get a free update if your garmin has been active for less than 60 days.
    If not, you can buy a single update for about €50 or unlimited updates for about €85. Just search amazon for "Garmin Lifetime Update"

    2013.41 Now available. Think it is mostly a fix for the Netherlands problem.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,193 ✭✭✭Mark Tapley


    Is it safe to buy updates from sites other than the Garmin site , eg MemoryC Amazon etc?

    yes certainly from Memoryc and Amazon.co.uk, Memoryc are over in Celbridge have bought various products from them over the years without issue and same with amazon.co.uk, just make sure its actually amazon.co.uk your buying from as they have marketplace sellers also.

    Like the previous poster said, it was to correct a problem that was detected in 2013.40 where some of the one-way streets in the Netherlands had accidentally been turned the other way around. Nothing else has changed as far as I'm aware.

    Hi Everyone.
    I purchased Garmin Nuvi 50 last month, and looked up map updating now.
    My device says it has CN Europe NTU 2013.10 maps installed.
    When I went to garmin website, and installed Garmin Express, it updated firmware to version 3.50, but it keeps saying that my maps are up to date.
    When I enter serial number on the website it says the same.

    Why it doesn't want to install 2013.41 version?

    Any info appriciated.
    Thanks.

    yes they have ....just downloaded and checked Tuam Rd junction

    2014.10 has removed the roundabouts and replaced with routable junctions.


    And they still haven't the new junctions(removed roundabouts) on the N6 in Galway


  • Registered Users Posts: 6,785 ✭✭✭CrowdedHouse


    That was in March - previous version

    Are you sure it is 2014? Not 2013?


  • Registered Users Posts: 844 ✭✭✭eirlink


    2014.10


  • Registered Users Posts: 212 ✭✭corcadorcha


    That update doesn't seem to be available through Garmin Express.
    Did others find it?
    Thanks

    From what I can gather 2014.10 is a USA map. Certainly not available on Garmin Express or My Dashboard. (Yet!!)
