| Posted by klenop3 Reinstalling City Navigator Files Hi. I have a Garmin Nuvi 660, and I want to delete all the files and reinstall only the basic maps. I also have one(1) Update CD for the country I am using which is 'City Navigator - Australia'. Do I have to install the original cd for Australia or just use the "UPDATE" version? Any ideas. Any tricks I should be careful of in del,eteing all my files. I have made a back up on a SD card of the total Garmin Directory files. |

| Posted by glyakh Re: Reinstalling City Navigator Files You can just use the UPDATE version over the existing City Navigator. Keep in mind if you create a new maps you would have to register them. I would suggest backup your unit files on your computer rather then CD card. If something goes bad you can quickly re-copy staff back. You do not have to delete all data, since the only update you got is for Australia maps (Latest version as of now is 2011) |

If you hook your Nuvi to a computer via USB port, it will be recognised and open as a data drive. In Windows explorer ( or Mac equivilant) you can see all there files in the Nuvi. As suggested elsewhere, first make a complete copy of the Nuvi contents, just in case of problems later. Then you can delete files such as MP3, JPG, Audible, etc, directly. Use the update for the map. |
