loading a map onto a Garmin XT

[Mike 4b]

Hi. I am using an Apple Mac and have downloaded the MRA connector which says is connected. When i try to export the map to a Garmin XT its says it is not connected to the Garmin . Any suggestions please. I am a new user so a little unfamiliar with all techniques on the App. cheers

@Mike-4b The connector doesn’t work with a Mac and a ZumoXT. Please save the route as GPX file on your mac and copy this file in the GPX folder on your ZumoXT.

As @Reinhard-32 suggested, save the route and copy paste it in the gpx folder.

@Mike-4b For access from a Mac to the ZumoXT you need the app Android File transfer. This can obtained form this website:

@Mike-4b I use Android File Transfer (As above) from my Mac to my XT and it works seamlessly. I just export the route from My Route App to my Mac hard drive then used Android File Transfer to copy it from the hard drive to the XT. Android File Transfer can take some time to recognise that the XT is plugged in but once it does the transfer is seamless and virtually instant.
