The MapConverter application was developed to be a tool that will allow you to convert maps and unlock codes on your Windows PC to the Macintosh format.
Transferred maps will remain fully accessible on your Windows PC. You do not need to use MapConverter if your maps are already in a Mac compatible format. Mac compatible maps can be installed directly on your Mac without using MapConverter.
Locked and Unlocked Map Products
Many Garmin map products must be unlocked in order to use detailed map data. If you have previously unlocked your map products on your Windows PC, those products will remain unlocked when transferred to your Mac computer. Unlock all map products before starting the transfer process.
NOTE:
To transfer maps to a Mac computer, you must have one or more Garmin map products installed on your PC
