I have 3, a 40 a 50 and a old 255. The 255 is the easy one and done! That one was always easy, I don't know if I have bad sd cards on the other 2 or what I'm doing wrong.

I have only loaded TT maps on this site before so could someone please point me to a tutorial/thread which explains
how to install a Garmin map to my new device ( do maps install to an SD card or the device memory?)
thanks
harrygee1205 wrote:Hello again
I have not received my Nuvi 2595 yet but have prepared an SD card as GarminNuvi explained for NA and I have a few questions about the file/folder tree as shown above for NA
1/re. the NA map ; one of the downloads above was ASR 2.0 - do I still call the folder ASR , not ASR 2.0 , on the SD card?
Also I created the System Vol Info folder which is empty - does it populate when inserted into the nuvi?
2/ If I want to use other maps in future , do I just use the same folder tree as above for all maps ie
On SD Card ; Folder "Garmin" - with ASR + JCV + SID + SQLite folders inside
Folder "Map"
Folder "System Volume Information"
Are additional features sometimes offered with other maps that I should also install if they are available?
Thanks
harrygee1205 wrote:Apologies but not being familiar with Garmin maps yet I have a question
I looked at other map downloads and for example the NA lower 49 is just an img file , so if I wanted to use this instead of the full NA FID9147 map above , would I just replace the "full NA9147.img" with the "lower 49 .img" file in the Map folder but leave all the other folders/files as is on the SD card?
Or is there another answer
thanks
