Garmin All in One Europe and street names in major cities

Hi,

and sorry up front if this has been asked before (it probably has)…
I downloaded an “aio Europe” of ca. 2gb. It know addresses of little towns in the netherlands but obviously no main street in major German cities like e.g. Essen (in fact I could not locate any street in Essen or Bochum so far).
Am I doing something wrong? Am I using it wrongly.

Another one: There are references to a 4GB Europe map (that just fits for Garmin) but the links don’t work. Any hint?

Thanks very much in advance!

No, it does not fit anymore; OSM data has extended the 4GB limit. The map creation gets broken because of that. You can use D-A-CH or other, smaller maps instead.

HTH,

Oh, what a pity.

Thx.

How about the street names not working?

Maybe that map was created with an older version from mkgmap (2011?) which didn’t support address search.

Where did you get the 2GB-AIO-Europe- Version from?

Greetings,

I guess this one?

http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/All_in_one_Garmin_Map

The combined map with all type files integrated as gmapsupp.img:

Europe (gmapsupp_europe.img.zip) (OLD!) and MD5-checksum 

Download (as of 2010-07-23): 2.13GiB (extracted size: 3.03GiB)

2010 is quite out dated, I doubt that it will support addresses.

My one’s extracted 2.3GB but I don’t know how old it is.
And as I said, it know street in Dutch villages.
Can I load Germany aio in addition?
What is the sequence the Garmin device looks maps up if several are active? Can I change that order?

Thxy!
