Basecamp not showing any of my Oregon's maps

Former Member over 13 years ago

I have Basecamp 3.3.2 installed on my laptop and my desktop. On my laptop, when my Oregon 450 is connected and Basecamp loaded, I can see my device maps. However, on my desktop, when I do the exact same thing, I cannot see any of my device maps and only see the default Global Map and Worldwide Autoroute Map.

I have tried reinstalling Basecamp on the desktop and also deleted the Basecamp folders as per another topic on this Forum. Nothing solves this. I am thinking that perhaps updating to the latest BC version on the desktop messed something up, but I can't figure out why. It's weird that it works fine on my laptop but that the device maps disappear on my desktop.

I am running Windows 7 on both computers. On my Oregon 450, I have an SD card with the Backroads Country Map BC v.3 (unlocked) and I have the West Canada Topo on the device itself.

Any help would be appreciated!

I am also seeing this behaviour as well with BC 3.3.3

It is a fresh install on a new PC running Win 7 64

Both the Oregon 450 and the SD card show up in Explorer, but only the Oregon shows up in BC and not the SD card.

In 3.3 in some cases the SD card will not be recognized. I believe we have fixed this internally, this should work in 4.0. We apologize for the inconvenience.

Thanks Falagar - it is no big issue for me so far but glad to see you have it in hand none the less.

Basecamp 3.3.3 really gets the job done, I haven't even bothered loading Mapsource on my new PC !!

I just found my old thread and noticed I hadn't thanked you all for helping me out back then, so thanks! I can't remember what I did exactly to fix it, but it worked. :)

However, a year has passed and with new updates and computers I now have them same problem again..I will start a new thread.
