Maps Manager Bug

Maps Manager prompts me to add a map but leaves it in queue without downloading it!

- Does that mean I should pay for that already-on-watch listed map?

- Use Garmin Express??

  • I too have 2022.11 on the watch. But map manager still tells me an update is available. I select "Update", it's queued and never starts.

  • 1. Yes
    2. Yes

    3. No

    4+5: Yes
    6: Netherlands

  • I still have Europe 2022.11 on my FR955. No updates are offered by Garmin Express or by the watch itself. Is it the latest version for Europe? How old is it, more than 12 months? Would be good to update maps more often.

  • Still no solution I guess? 

  • What I have done with maps is to delete the .img files on the device , reboot it , connect  again to Garmin Express , choose Manage maps, and start from scratch choosing what I want installed.

    Doing that If I choose Europe there is a 2023.10 that can be installed.

    You can also choose on of three regions with Europe to use a smaller storage space on the device.

    I hope that can help you

  • I plugged the 955 into my PC today and Garmin Express told me there was a map update available (2023.10). I did the update and now finally have TopoActive 2023.10 on the watch. The on-watch map manager still tells me there's an update available for this map though See no evil

  • Had the same problem. Reconnected the watch a couple of times for other updates and then it disappeared 

  • Hello!

    I had the same problem, and that made me mad. I thought when you buy a premium product, not only price should be premium.

    So, I wanted to manage maps with only my garmins, but I failed to download any map. Even if I had enough space for Europe maps, my garmins couldn't download Hong Kong. So I decited to use Garmin Express. I found a computer, installed an app, downloaded maps I want, disconnected my garmins and thought that everything will be good now. I was wrong. Garmin Express told me that I have up to date maps, but map manager on my FR955 told me that there's update available. And I couldn't do anything with that annoying "Update available".

    Solution was found by an accident. What I did:

    1. Deleted all maps on my FR955

    2. Connected FR955 to a computer

    3. Launched Garmin Express and downloaded maps to FR955

    4. Disconnected FR955 from a computer and selected Map manager on FR955

    5. Map manager told me that there's an update available for all maps I just downloaded with Garmin Express

    6. I selected Add map on FR955

    7. My FR955 searched for available wi-fi networks, then requested map update data, then told me "Map sync complete"

    8. Annoying "Update available" disappeared

    That's my case, I do not know if it will help anyone else, but from that moment I'm a bit less nervous about maps on my garmins.
