June maps update

[blueSup]

Looks like we miss out on a June update. When I look at the page now it still offers the MRM 2017 update from November last year, and states the next update is in November.

wat is this "page" u refer too?

[dArK5HaD0w]

actually, i think i found it......

It downloads a file with the same name (revision) as the one from November 2016.

And just like that, the June 2017 maps update has arrived. Update portal

But it says (Unknown) instead of the file size like the other update did. No idea if that means anything.

Edit: The download files, when clicked on, shows an error. One step at a time I guess.

Cue the next week of frustratingly interrupted downloads and all sorts of annoying errors....

I'm downloading it also, its dated 2017/2018 and its 23.5gb in size. even with my 10gb pipe, it will still take 12hrs to download. looks like its throttled at 500k/sec

I still get:

<Error>

Argh... I go crazy trying to do these updates. I have extracted the files, formatted an SD into NTFS, copied the Mib1, Mib2 folders and the metainfo2 text document onto it. Put in in the car... nav->config -> software update.... it then spends a good 5 minutes thinking hard about it to tell me there's no data on my SD card. Help! I know the card works because this is the one that I used last time..... any clues as to what i'm missing?

Use your Mac. If it has an SD card slot, pop it in. Use Disk Utility to format it as ExFat in a single partition.
Place the zip file into a new folder on your hard drive.
Double click the zip file to unzip it.
Copy all the files in the folder, except the zip file, to the SD card.
Open Terminal (inside the Utilities folder).
If the name of the SD card is UNTITLED, type:

dot_clean /Volumes/UNTITLED

If the name of the card is different, then replace UNTITLED with the name of the card. Make sure the name of the card has no spaces in it.

After typing the command, press the return key. The command will take a second to run.
Eject the card and pop it in the car, following the usual update process.

I had the same error on my Mac (using Safari and Chrome). However, no problem when I used Windows PC. Following the previous update experience and this one, I believe that the update process doesn't work well on Mac.

As always, your advice is spot on. I now find myself watching Netflix in my iPad in my car for the next 45 minutes as the update loads due to a lack of offstreet parking. There are less comfortable places to be though... it's made me wonder if I can somehow bring heated seats into my living room...
