Garmin NAVTEQ Traffic PC to Mac Guide
Transferring Map Products from a PC to a Mac® Computer
Overview
This document provides instructions for transferring Garmin map products from Microsoft Windows® operating system to Mac® OS 10.4 or
later. Transferred maps will remain fully accessible on your Windows PC.
Getting Started
Carefully read all information in the “Getting Started” section to ensure that your maps transfer properly.
NOTE: To transfer maps to a Mac computer, you must have one or more Garmin map products installed on a PC running Microsoft Windows XP®
operating system or later.
Locked and Unlocked Map Products
Many Garmin map products must be unlocked in order to use detailed map data. If you have previously unlocked your map products on your
Windows PC, those products will remain unlocked when transferred to your Mac computer. Unlock all map products before starting the transfer
process. See the owner’s manual for your mapping software for more information about unlocking maps.
Patching MapSource® United States Topo
Versions of MapSource United States TOPO prior to TOPO US 2008 contain an error that can cause applications to crash. If you want to
transfer one of these products, you must first install a software patch. Go to www.garmin.com/topopatch to download the software patch.
