It all depends what mapping software you have now.


Open your Mapsource, click on Help, then About Mapsource, then Product info, it will then tell you what mapping software you are using.

BTBR i dont have any mapsource i bought the 2620 on e bay did not get any cds with it but v 6 is on the system its self i bought the above cds thinking it would upgrade the units software but im totally confussed now

Who did you 'buy' the CDs from (they should be free - the unlocks cost)?

Have you got your original unlock codes?

The 2620 uses City Navigator (City Select is discontinued in version 8).

I tried this route to get a free upgrade to CitySelect 7 ...
Once in the Garmin site
a) On-one ever replies to yoour e mail
b) Even if you are entitled to get the free up grade , how are you meant to get it , when the automated system won't let you get to a person
c) If I want City Select 8, which i won't be entitled to, how do I get it
i) Via Garmin ... and if so am I paying for discs, or an unlock code?
ii) Illegally of E bay ... because it is a lot less hassle

I am quite suprised that you have never had a reply from Garmin? Personally I found the customer response to be excellant.

To the best of my knowledge, the update CD's are always free, its buying the unlock codes that is the sting in the wallet.

Without wishing to alarm you, and I am sure there is a logical reason, but on the face of it I cannot help but suspect that you could have been done over here.

The CD's are always free, in fact I have just given a set away coz I had a spare set.

Did you not get a unlock code included

If you have not got any unlock codes at all, then sadly, yes you have.

[Allroad]

oh dear no no codes only the cds

 

[Allroad]

so i now assume if i get v 8 from garmin i will have to pay for unlock codes or do i order full cd dvd version from them

thanks for the help so far

 

[shedracer]

Allroad,
If the e-bay add that you bought your CD`s from, did not state that you need unlock codes to use the mapping, then I would get onto E-bay ASAP and complain about the person you bought it from. You maybe lucky and get some sort of reimbursement.

Good luck.
