Incomplete Garmin Express update, evolution from Cyclemap to Topoactive

michle38 2 days ago

Hi,
The problem I'm talking about occurred on my Edge 1000, but it may affect all GPS models that need to upgrade from Cyclemap to Topoactive.
Garmin Express offered me the Topoactive update.
So I proceeded with it.
In the end, I noticed that only the "Topoactive Europe - East 2025.10" map was transferred.
Other updates were made (gmapdem, gmapgc), but they were for the Cyclemap version. They had no reason to be proposed.
An attempt to replace the GPS with a USB flash drive yielded the same result.
Now Garmin Express keeps offering me the same update even though I've already done it.

Did you experience the same issue and find a solution?
Thanks for sharing.
Best regards.

On my 830 the NA DEM is 2023.10 and the NA Geocode is 2024.10 and they were that way with NA Cyclemaps 2024.20 before the update to TopoActive. I would suspect those don't change very often. Maybe they'll get included in the TopoActive package at some later date, maybe even deleted if they are not needed now. I'm not worried about it unless it becomes a space issue.

Hi, Those who have Topoactive Europe have 3 DEM files (1 for each region of Europe). According to my information, the geocode map would no longer be of any use with the Topoactive map. Did your transition from Cyclemap to Topoactive go well? Do you have your 3 Europe maps?
