Cannot update maps

Cannot update maps. Tried several different SD Cards, formatted properly, inserted properly, different computers, different cords.... I can manually see the SD card on both the computer and Garmin... but the software keeps saying "No Card Found"

Honestly, this isn't worth the frustration. If the software is this difficult for so many people then maybe it's time to fix the software. I am on the verge of throwing this away and getting something better.

Would help if you said which device and which map.

Drive Assist 50. I can't get to the maps, I can only get to localized maps.

Check the thread at http://www.poi-factory.com/node/50578?page=1 and very specifically the content on page 2, the end of the thread.

Also, when you format the SD card, what size is being reported back. Somewhere in the last month or so an individual had an issue with a 32 gb card that reported differently than normal size, and it would not work. As I recall, a card for the user reported 31.2 GB after a FAT32 format and a 2nd card was purchased and that card reported 29 GB which worked.

I have a DriveSmart 50 and its updated without issue since I bought it many years ago. Check the sd card as described above. Also, assuming your Express version is up to date, try updating the map without the sd card installed. Only insert it if Express asks for one.
