Express says I have no MicroSD card, but I do.

Former Member over 8 years ago

Nuvi 1350 LMT.
Garmin Express 4.1.22.0 on Mac OS X 10.10.5.

Express detects the 1350, but when I tell it to update, it says I need a microSD card 3GB or greater.
I have a Kingston MicroSD HC 4GB card in there that is working fine with the version of s/w & maps that's already installed.
When I tell it to "Try Again" it says it can find no card installed.
Can I delete all the files on the currently installed card & try again, or do I need a more capacious card?

Any help appreciated.

Thx,

Certainly worth moving the files off the card and trying. I wouldn't delete them just in case ;)

Same problem here:
I tried (re)moving the files from the SD card - but gave up when the estimated time was 2 hours. Moved files to trash instead.
Now the SD card info says: Capacity 3.95 GB - accessible: 388,9 MB, but the card window is empty!?

Moreover, when I turn on the nüvi it reports: "no map data available" - even though I haven't touched any of the nüvi files!

Any proposals??

Sounds like the normal Mac issue, you'll need to empty the trash :)

Indeed, that brought the 'accessible' space up to 3.95 GB! :)
In the mean time I started downloading/installing maps of Scandinavia - don't know whether on SD card or on nüvi(?)...time will show.
(My ambition is to load some more map coverage - with Germany included as a minimum).

If you weren't advised that the card was being used the map will be installed on the device.

OK - how can I increase map coverage, then?

I don't know how much space Scandinavia ('Nordic') occupies - but I suppose there should be room for Germany as well, either on the card or on the unit itself!??

Once you've updated your device run Express again. If you're entitled to additional maps see this FAQ

Sounds great - will try that! :)
