    A friend of mine who is also a contributor here at RG just got his Nuvi 2595, turns out we cannot transfer maps to his device using mapsource, has anybody here used basecamp to transfer the contributors map successfully to their new model Nuvi's like the 2595?

      Basecamp

      Have you installed Basecamp?? then connect your gps, Basecamp has replaced mapsource, therefore all new models should work on it.
      Try it. I use my Nuvi 765 on it without a problem.

        The new series 24XX and 25XX are not Mapsource compatible. Use basecamp in transferring maps

          Change History

          Changes made from version 4.1.0 to 4.1.1:

          • Fixed an issue where BaseCamp was not responding if a certain GPI file (006D135900.GPI) was present on the device.
          • Fixed an issue where BaseCamp did not seem to recognize some MTP devices (it was taking several minutes for BaseCamp to display the device). Device detection of such devices should now be much faster.
          • Fixed an issue with Garmin cloud where syncing between Mac and PC would not work properly.
          • Fixed an issue with 'Restore from Previous Version'.
          • Fixed an issue where using the city finder (in the Find Options 'Location' textbox) would lead to a crash if the map did not support city searches.
          • Fixed an issue with city search on the Global Map.
          • Fixed an issue with user data search.
          • Fixed a start-up issue.

          Changes made from version 4.0.5 to 4.1.0:

          • Added support for Garmin Cloud Storage.
          • Added support for searching and displaying Custom POIs from devices (GPI file support).
          • Added ability to report map errors directly from within BaseCamp.
          • Added support for new statistics track extension, this should allow BaseCamp and future devices to have the same track statistics.
          • Added better error messages for adventure publishing failures.
          • Implemented Part I of Find experience rework (simultaneous searches, less confusing input boxes, added Find menu, added support for user data search).
          • Improved behavior when editing or deleting route and track points in a list, BaseCamp now remembers the position in the list.
          • Improved decimal precision for low speeds.
          • Improved 'Send To Device' and 'Receive From Device' dialogs.
          • Fixed an issue where BaseCamp would erroneously prompt for Geotagged photos on Garmin-mode devices.
          • Fixed an issue where the folder data list size wasn't preserved.
          • Fixed an issue with importing KML files from Google Earth.
          • Fixed an issue where the original routes were not restored after cancelling during the calculation phase of a route join.
          • Fixed an issue where single digit entry into Arrival/Departure times may not get committed to database.
          • Fixed an issue with displaying waypoint comments that take more than 1 row.

                Just did a quick read through this thread.

                As I do not have Mapsource, I cannot compare Mapsource vis-a-vis Basecamp.

                I read that you can transfer waypoints that you inputted in Basecamp into your GPS.

                Am not too clear on the exporting bit: can Basecamp be used to contribute to the Contributors' Map? Did I miss it when reading this thread?

                  I think this is the answer to my question... yes? So, Basecamp can be used for contributions to the RG Map? Just make sure to use GDB?

                    Basecamp submission

                    The trick is to create a lists, each list would have to be for the separate depending on your submissions, ie, wp, or tracks etc.
                    When you have created you list of wp's
                    then select the folder
                    then got to file tab at the top and select export
                    you are given the option to select the folder, or just certain items,
                    your then given a menu where to save the compiled list, I usually use my desktop,
                    You will see that the file is saved as a gpx file, this is ok, save it.
                    And that your file to submit to RG forums...
                    Easy when you know how.
