Drivesmart 55 - Garmin Express error - now corrupted maps

Hi,

thanks for any help in advance! I'm a bit stuck and I've had a good trawl online with nothing that's helped so far.

  • I have a mac on 10.15.07 and was updating two of my garmin 55 mts sat navs using freshly installed garmin express software.
  • Both devices had errors appear on express mid install and now show me "maps are corrupt and cannot be used. go to garmin.com/express to download the latest maps" every time they are turned on.
  • I have since reset the sat navs with a hard 12 second reset.
  • Reset them via the in built menus,
  • Removed the devices from garmin express, fully uninstalled express, reinstalled express, re-added the devices, reinstalled the maps in express.
  • I've updated the maps via wifi on the devices themselves.
  • Tried another reinstall map via express.
  • And so far....nothing has worked.

Any suggestions or pointers? Thanks! Alex.

  • Drivesmart 55, brand new, Full Europe map...

    As soon as I connected the device to my Mac (12.x) Garmin Express updated the firmware, all languages, some other stuff and the Map...
    Disconnected the device long time after it was over because I wasn't in front of the computer for all the updates.

    Restarted the device and got the error message, but in anyway everything is working if I click OK on the message box.

    I wonder if it is related to the latest firmware or maybe the latest maps updates.
