1 hour and a half later and I'm up to date!

How did you get this to come up on you nav screen

I've tried but can't find it

Chris, if you go to the map so it's showing on the screen, then push the knob to the right, and scroll to the bottom it says something like 'software version' click that and you will see the screen above.

Regarding the software update, it will need to be done on a computer. You won't be able to do it on an iPad I'm afraid.

Thanks 

Dave (justify) has offered his USB to use as long as mines the same as his. 

I did try push right and scroll to bottom but nothing came up. Will try again tomorrow now and let you know. Once I have my information I will buy a life code on eBay (the one dave got his from)

Will let you know how it goes. Thanks again. 

Best of look. I got mine from the Canada website linked earlier on in this thread (traveling at the moment, so don't have it to hand)

Just get map view and push right for options list then scroll to bottom.

Just found it and I have 

BMW GROUP 
101104010
Read map Europe MOVE 2012

That different to Dave unfortunately

Just need to get your hands on a laptop then! Can download maps and get your code from here:http://www.bmwfsc.ca

That's where all mine came from.

It doesn't matter what version you start from Chris....

What version does Dave have? If it is the MOVE 2017-1 then that is the most up to date file for the BMW MOVE system that you have.

Mine was the 2011 MOVE, but it doesn't matter if its 2015 etc.....


I hope that makes sense.... you will still need a activation code though as they are locked to each vehicle once purchased.

Dave's is a NEXT not a MOVE

Ah shame.... Lucky for Dave though I think thats a better system....

In that case just follow the link that Sam qwerty posted above once you have a mac or pc to hand.

I have the file on a USB here of course.... if you get a code you're welcome to borrow mine but I guess id need to post it, so it may be quicker to borrow a laptop from a friend but the offer is there if you need it.

I could pick it up from you and pass it on to Chris next Friday if that works?

That would be good of you if I can borrow it

Will PM you




Was just going to ask Jason did he live near you Neil.

That would be great  if it not to far for you to go

I won't be PM ing you now Jason




I'll get my code this weekend

It's only a few miles from me. Will be out and about Sunday so could do it then if it suits Jason.

Yes Neil, i'm around most of the weekend, i'll have to pop out occasionally to drop my children to various things but yes of course you can borrow the USB..... I have another kicking around here somewhere too... shall I download the USB/BT update onto that one so Chris can do both? Just pop them back to me when its done


The BT/USB update takes minutes..... the SAT NAV takes 1 hour 40 odd unfortunately!

What's the BT one 

Your first picture you posted was the Software version for the BT (Bluetooth) and USB external devices. The version numbers were starting with RX and TX.


They need updating also..... put your last 7 digits of your VIN into this link and see what it comes up with..... if its the same as mine I'll pop the update on another USB.

Looks like you are now sorted Chris, shame its not the NEXT map type but at least another member has offered to loan you their MOVE map type on a usb stick.

Did you get a lifetime FSC code from where I said last time I checked it was £26.26.

Yes I did and it's a life time one. Many thanks again for you help Dave  . Drinks are on me 

Good to meet you this morning Jason and chat things MINI.  

The USB sticks are now in my glovebox to bring on Friday.

Your a star Jason, many thanks for all this.  Also to you Neil 

Will buy you both lunch next time we meet   

Likewise Neil, nice to put a face to the name...... and to see your beautiful GP2 in the flesh.

Started down loading at 5pm and it still only 50% loaded after 3 hrs. Is there any thing I should be doing to speed this up

Just hope it's finished by time I go to bed

Did it complete? Just seen this.... It did take an age!

12 hrs, had to leave it loading  over night, when I went to look at 5 in the morning it was on 99%

Still got the blue tooth one to do tomorrow's

12 hours?

Wow..

The BT took minutes so hopefully will be the same for you.

My engine was running the whole time as I was running around while it was updating so maybe that helped the time with the Nav but 12 hours seems ridiculous!

Hopefully it works and has updated though.

This might explain why on my F56 the dealers want it for a day to do a update!
