install maps from PC to mac

Deeke 9 months ago

I have my initial maps on BaseCamp a PC Windows. Now I will reuse these maps in my new MacBook Pro M3. Who know to realize this? I use a GPSmap 60CSx and an Edge 1040 plus.

You may be able to use JaVaWa GMTK ... but it may not work with modern Macs

Thanks for your advice. I wish to copy the maps from an old Windows PC ( here is the backup already successful done with JaVaWa GMTK ) to a new MacBook Pro M3. I can't use JaVaWa app on the MAC, it don't work!

I have a GPSmag 60CSx, I can connect this to my MacBook Pro but Garmin Express don't work. What can I do?

I was afraid it wouldn't. What maps, and from which device, are you hoping to install on your Mac? I assume you've already installed BaseCamp?

Garmin Express doesn't support the GPSMAP 60CSx, BaseCamp does.

JaVaWa GMTK is not necessary to install the maps on the Mac, as long as those maps are of the gmap type.

You can use GMTK on your Windows PC to check the map type. GMTK uses coloured rectangles to indicate the type: orange or yellow is a gmap map, green is a registry map. The gmap maps can be installed with Garmin MapManager (it's included with BaseCamp).

Convert registry maps to gmap maps on your PC using JaVaWa MapConverter or Garmin MapConverter.
