[QUOTE="bigjohnsd, post: 1411675, member: 86475"] I am nearly GPS/Garmin/Basecamp illiterate. I could effectively use Tyre and TomTom and could sometimes even get a GPX file to come out of Tyre and have someone load it into their Garmin unit and get a similar track/route to what I had in my TomTom from the same points. On one of the BMW forums I noted this comment, I thought it might be useful here. "Garmin effectively stopped BaseCamp development in 2016, with version 4.6.2 , leaving a few small but survivable bugs. Then in 2018 they released 4.6.3 , in which they broke all the external links, including Google Earth, as a quick and dirty way to comply with European privacy law. That was a sure sign of the end. 4.6.2 continues to work (ignoring the "upgrade" offers.) I suggest that users achieve the installer for that version. You can export the entire "my collection" as a single GPX file if you need to. To move data between BaseCamp installations, the Garmin Database.GDB format is more accurate." I'm not smart like Carter, i envy his skills at all this techie shit. Hope this helps someone. Ciao [/QUOTE]
