You know I’m not the only one who is frustrated. BaseCamp is a 3D mapping application that allows you to transfer Garmin Custom Maps, BirdsEye Imagery, waypoints, tracks, and routes between your Mac and Garmin device.

You might be able to connect via Bluetooth but that would be a better question for the Garmin people. It allows you to manage your data on practically all Garmin map products, but topographic maps are required for 3-D rendering. I don't avctually need BaseCamp for that but I do want to be able to cable connect the GPSMAP to iPAD mini and transfer the data to the iPad.Do you know if and how I can do that Thanks. Garmin folks, you have to get it together… Please. BaseCamp is a 3D mapping application that allows you to transfer Garmin Custom Maps, BirdsEye Imagery, waypoints, tracks, and routes between your Mac and Garmin device. The 4.2.2 version was completely unstable on the new iMac, so after a web search I found out there had been several updates since 4.2.2.

Ironically, I did not receive any notice on the earlier version of BC (4.2.2) that an update was available, even after selecting Check for Updates. Seems to have become a bit more stable now, however I have not tried to connect a Garmin device and upload routes. Within the first 15 minutes of use BC crashed four times. But, BaseCamp is still about as slow as it was on my ten year old iMac. (BTW, I spent 30 years as a product manager responsible for complex medical imaging devices, so I do feel I have a sense of what makes a decient UI.) I just updated from a ten year old iMac to a new iMac 4.2 GHz i7, 32 GB RAM, 3TB Fusion Drive - very fast machine. It allows you to manage your data on practically all Garmin map products, but topographic maps are required for 3-D rendering.
I keep hoping Garmin will do an overhaul of this aged, unintuitive, overly complicated and frustrating application, but I am disappointed with each new release/update. BaseCamp is a 3D mapping application that allows you to transfer Garmin Custom Maps, BirdsEye Imagery, waypoints, tracks, and routes between your Mac and Garmin device. I have been using Garmin devices for many years - BaseCamp for the past 10 years.
