Gratefuldeadbolt, earlier versions of
iGuidance included an application called "MapLoader". This was discontinued in version 4. At least my iG4 doesn't have it. I have one of the first copies of
iGuidance 4, and I don't know if MapLoader was later reintroduced or not.
I think one of the reasons for removing MapLoader from iGuidance was to simplify installation. But I think it backfired a bit, because the developer failed to include in the installer a procedure which would copy the map data to a laptop (or to another device).
The correct iGuidance 4 installation steps are described in the manual, but I think most of us don't read manuals, we just insert the DVD, and then follow the on-screen prompts (as we should). The missing piece is that we have to manually copy and paste a folder from the DVD onto our hard drive (or a memory card in case of a PDA).
Since you've already installed iGuidance 4, I'd recomend the following:
* Uninstall iGuidance 4
* Copy the folder
iNav iGuidance from the DVD into your
C:\
* Install iGuidance 4
Now all should work as expected. The
iNav iGuidance folder contains the map data, so you will no longer need the DVD inserted while using the program. Favorite destinations, recent destinations, and itinerary will be stored in the
iNav iGuidance folder.
