Average Reviews:
(More customer reviews)The last time we updated maps on our StreetPilot 330 was a couple of years ago. The CD didn't work with Macs even though the GPS and the map update CD both had Mac compatibility listed on the packaging. I had to take the CD back to the retail store and they updated the maps from a store computer. It took like an hour.
Last night, we purchased the digital version of the update here at Amazon, since my husband was going on the road today. I was praying it would work. Here's what happened.
After purchase, we got a code from Amazon. The screen to return this code took a couple of minutes (longer than expected) but I didn't refresh or anything so it eventually came through.
I used this code over at Garmin's site along with our pre-existing user ID and password there (yes, if you don't have one already, you need to register there). In return, the Garmin site gave me another code that I needed to use on the computer when installing the map update.
I hooked the GPS in to my Mac Mini via USB. The Garmin site said that we needed a firmware update so I downloaded and installed that. No problems (unlike the past experience, the Mac seemed well supported).
Then we downloaded the maps. Took about 20 min. on a Verizon FIOS connection. The Garmin downloader Java applet will lock up your web browser till it's done, which personally I don't like, and doesn't give the user feedback as to progress (at least on a Mac) but it did work.
After the file downloaded, I installed the maps. Everything was fine except for trying to install the entire North America first (the 330 doesn't have enough storage to do this). Once I scaled back to just the US it was OK. Took about 20-30 minutes to download the maps to the GPS.
It's done, my hubby is happy, and hopefully the GPS won't show him falling into the Potomac any more as he travels past DC (as one example).
My recommendation if you want to try the digital download...take it slow, don't refresh screens or assume something is not working while the files are downloading. It worked well for us.
