So after spending an entire day on this, I've decided Garmin software and the Zumo 660 really sucks!  I'm about ready to throw this expensive, useless device out the nearest window!  :mad:

A few questions before I toss this:

I'm currently running SSA 2012.3 on Basecamp on my Mac.  the 660 reflects this as 2012.1, no matter what I do - should this also reflect 2012.3?  I alway get the popup saying "you don't have the same map version on your device, so figured it may be related to this?

The recalc is a nightmare.  I create a route on basecamp, that looks perfect.  Shows 260km's.  I upload it, it recalcs and shows 840km's on the Zumo...

Either I'm doing something stupid or as per my first statement, this software just sucks...  Any suggestions appreciated.

Regards
WB
