to look at my Navionics card on my laptop???:dono
Does you laptop have a port to plug the card into? If not go to Walmart and buy a card reader to plug into your usb port
You also have to have the correct software or app installed I think. I can not get mine to read my chip.
I heard once if you put ina puter it will erase card, I guess so you cant copy em. If you find out differ Rees let me know
When i put it in the card reader it pulls up a Navionics store, new cards get free updates for a year so you have to give em a purchase date. Will wok on it after a while and keep yall posted, sure would be handy.
Hurry up man you got people waiting...:popcorn
Hurry up John lol

Still waitin Rees

Only way u can read the card on your computer is plug ff to computer and look at ff
The cards only store data (you can open the files and look) I'm not aware of any program created that that can use the data in a way like your ff does. Plus even in your ff the data is just an overlay of what your ff already has programmed into it if I understand all correctly

John, I plugged my card into my usb and when i tried to format it I was warned that it will erase the card. I would contact Navionics by phone and see what they say> The cards are encrypted so they can't be copied but there is a way to load them onto your computer with a Navionics card reader!
Am afraid I killed my card, FF will lock up when i ty to go to it.:banghead
Ouch!!
double ouch!
I guess that answers that question. Sorry bout that Rees.
Gewber. Did u read my post.
Oh yeah-only time u unlock the card is to update card that's it.

Wonder if I can update i and fix it, fixxin to try.
:popcorn :popcorn :popcorn
Update wont fix it, says its full. Got a email into Navionics and will call them tomorrow when I get off the lake.
Just got off the phone wih Navionics, great customer service. Was on he phone with them for 40 minutes. The thing comes with some kind of booster that you plug in a USB port, dont do this and ifn you do dont install it. Had trouble removing it but after several different ways he got it and my card is now updating. They said the updates should fix it, also if you have and older unit you need to uncheck the community options on the website before clicking on update.
Will know in a little while if it is fixxed.
Navionics does not have a way to look at your card but they gave me this website to try. fugawi.com
The fugawi site has some pretty interesting stuff on there. Thanks Rees
Update fixxed my card, thanks goodness!!!
Rees, I'm not sure exactly what's going on (always late to the party), but Navionics has a PC App on their website which lets me download the card to my computer, edit my waypoints - etc, and then upload it back into my Hummingbird. I use it all the time since my waypoint organization on the water is non=existant.

Try this and use it to find "your" lake and zoom in to see details. I think contours are in meters and you will have to convert them over to feet.
