Re: map too big for Zumo? how to install on SD card

I started over. after downloading (and express said it was full North America maps), and moving the 3 mentioned files to the "map" folder, and moving the "JCV" folder to the "Garmin" folder, the ".System" folder contains 4 files. .express, gmap3d.gma, gmap3d.i...

I put sd card into zumo and started it up. went to settings/...

Re: map too big for Zumo? how to install on SD card

Map currently on zumo is "Lower 49 States NE". So when try to change map, it shows this. I have 64 GB SD card in Zumo that Zumo recognizes and plays music from, and my computer recognizes it too.

I asked about updating and he didn't have any idea. So, from what I read, the owner has to unregister zumo and new owner register it and the l...
