Garmin GPS 60 - connectivity questions

Former Member
Former Member
I have recently acquired a GPS 60 and it didn't come with a Garmin Cable, i have been trying to connect it with a couple of PC's (Win 7 and 10) but Garmin Express says it can see a device, but doesnt support the GPS 60. I cant find any garmin software that does. The cable i am using fits the handset, and is USB rather than Serial port- is this correct? Just in windows the gps 60 does not mount as a drive, yet when it is plugged in windows acknowledges its there with a ping! Tried windows update to locate drivers to no avail. Help! Need to connect it to download geocache data.
  • Will take a look at the old Mapsource, but that normally says something about existing products or entering a code


    Mapsource is indeed a commercial product, requiring a license, I believe. For that reason, back in the days when I had an etrex Legend I used third-party software to upload maps, but I can't recall its name.
  • Provided you've first installed BaseCamp then MapSource can be installed as it accepts the basemap supplied with BaseCamp as an existing product
