![]() ![]() Ironically, I did not receive any notice on the earlier version of BC (4.2.2) that an update was available, even after selecting Check for Updates. ![]() Seems to have become a bit more stable now, however I have not tried to connect a Garmin device and upload routes. ![]() Within the first 15 minutes of use BC crashed four times. But, BaseCamp is still about as slow as it was on my ten year old iMac. (BTW, I spent 30 years as a product manager responsible for complex medical imaging devices, so I do feel I have a sense of what makes a decient UI.) I just updated from a ten year old iMac to a new iMac 4.2 GHz i7, 32 GB RAM, 3TB Fusion Drive - very fast machine. I keep hoping Garmin will do an overhaul of this aged, unintuitive, overly complicated and frustrating application, but I am disappointed with each new release/update. ![]() I have been using Garmin devices for many years - BaseCamp for the past 10 years. Then they said I should ask Apple about it.I'm now doing my own trials on another mac to try revert. Support at one time came back to me with a "fix" to do a backup, uninstall & re-install (first problem report was I coud not do a backup!). Also support admitted thay don't have a mac! The development staff does obviously and apparently tried to "duplicate my problem", but never really answered my questions like if they had started at 4.8.7 and then did an update - I think only working with a fresh install (which would lose my data). Basically said that SW develpment could not tell me what their install routine does inside the OS so I could get files from a Time machine backup to revert to the old version and save my data. Support was responsive but unwilling to do anything about it to research a work around to save my data. The program now fails to export files to an internal volume, even to backup your library. Many people don't like Basecamp, but I have never found an alternative for computer based routing that have the database capabilities, and recently I have been looking hard. ![]()
