How do I update - Kayak Fishing Adventures on Big Water’s Edge

TJones · 04-18-2018, 07:16 PM

I have both Mac and pc ? Is this gonna be easier on pc? Thanks for everyone’s help. Also what format should the micro card be formatted with? Fat 32? I got a new carbon and this went so much easier. I was able to connect the head unit with my WiFi at home and download directly to a card installed on head unit . Reboot and done . Simple . This hds gen 3 I have had for years with no issues. Version 1 still . Lol

I would say PC would be a little more user friendly for the update. I’ve never had to reformat a memory card for FF. Typically the file you upload to the card is already in correct format for the unit.

I used an older MacBookPro and did not need to format anything just download the file and copy it to the memory card and not install it inside any other folder on the card.

Do I look for file after I put in card slot ? Or should it find it automatically . I did all the above from Mac

When you hit menu, this should appear on the left side of screen

You can see the files option third from the bottom. Your files should be there.

Just a suggestion if you're having problems updating - consider just leaving it alone. I mean you don't need the update and others have issues with it anyway. If it ain't broke don't fix it.
