Latest map for DIscover Pro out

[dgp]

OK. so i ,must be a bit of a spaz. i cant load these files to my SD card.

I am using a Canon branded 32mb card that came with a digital camera, it is FAT formatted.

There is nothing on the SD card, but i get an error message saying i need more space to load the 28mb of data.

Any ideas?

Are you trying to Unzip it to the card or copy them from a folder on the computer Looks like from the computer

Have you got a bigger card even a micro SD in an adapter works

How did you d/load that so fast as it takes me about 2 1/2 hours on a 50mb connection

I have it on a 32gb Fujitsu card that we used in my wifes camera and it fits Ok

Properties usually says FAT 32 Are you using a Windows machine



Have just copied it onto a 32gb Micro card formatted in Fat32 and it is 30,124,523,520 bytes with 1.16Gb free space

It registers as FULL

Go and buy a cheap 64gb card at Office works and use that It will be formatted as Exfat but still works

There is a 4GB single file size limit for FAT formatted disks. Chances are one of the files is 4GB+. Backup your data, reformat the card to exFAT and once done, put it back in the camera and let the camera format it back to FAT. Not necessary to use the camera to format it, just seems most manufactures recommend it.

Thanks for the post Hillbilly. I'll update mine tomorrow

Firstly DONT format it in the camera as they often do weird things with cards

Put it in a computer and format it in FAT32 with default cluster size

The card I put it on last night is a FAT32 and it copied onto it OK the one I installed the maps in the car on Saturday is a FAT32 and it worked

Plain FAT is an MSDOS way of doing it and I havent seen that for years and years.

It should say FAT32 in the Properties.

Ehhh you have a 32 MB SD card, you need a 32 GB Card.

You're trying to load 28 GB of data onto 32 MB SD card.

ummmmm........a Gigabyte is actually 1024 megabytes. A million (actually 1024 x 1024) megabytes is a terabyte.

[Guest001]

Oh dear having a bad day

Meant a GB is expressed as a million KB or 1000 MB when yes they are both actually 1024.

Let's just sum it up, dgp needs the right size SD card to update the maps

To be precise they are all the same size but have different capacities and the OP is trying to pour a gallon into a pint bucket LOL

Heading down the street to get a new SD card with GB on it not MB.

Sorry professor H, should have said FAT32

[Guest001]

Sorry professor H, should have said FAT32

Not being smart really but so many times the acronyms get mixed up and lead to problems

Have had that happen years ago with a Hewlett Packard Computer and different cameras that format stuff weirdly.

Even the RNS 510 we all loved does that.

Cant believe I missed that but the missing 32 should have told me.

You are more of a "Professor" than I am as you have solved much bigger problems for me

Thanks for your help gents, all downloaded, unzipped and installed in the Allspace (now that I have a 32GB card )

Does the new map still take you on the most illogical route like the previous one?
