Zumo User Forums

Garmin announced years ago that BaseCamp wasn't compatible with Zumo 660 units.

It’s pot luck if you get a result.

I would just right click on the waypoint and select 'Move Waypoint'.

A BC Route I am preparing has to cross a town (~4km wide) which has a fairly intense and congested grid pattern of streets. The Route chosen by BC is not one I would take due 1km of broken road surface and local traffic. I have travelled through the town previously. I will arrive at the town about ...

I have and use a Zumo 660, if I know which files you need I could send a copy.

Hopefully, some of the Mac users will chip in. I'm not so sure how well modern Macs play with Garmin Express and Basecamp?? My understanding, for what it's worth, is that Basecamp was intrduced primarily for Mac stuff, as Mapsource wouldn't work without some sort of added software. So you should be ...

Many years ago I installed OSM maps to my ZUMO 660.. I downloaded the maps from the OSM site to my laptop using the instructions supplied, then used Mapinstall to transfer them to my 660.

The benefit of Mapsource is the ability to right click and view in Google Satellite Imagery on Google Maps, something sadly lacking with Basecamp.
