the item shortcut refers to has been changed or removed, so this shortcut will no longer work properly"
WHAT TO DO :((((-
Download and Install the latest Garmin USB drivers in your PC.
Install Garmin Communicator Plugin in your PC: IBM-compatible PCs running Windows® XP or later with Internet Explorer 7.0+, Firefox 3.6+, Safari 5.0+ or Chrome 8.0+
Update the Montana Software with 4.04 Beta version.
Then your problem should be solved.

DC, Did you update the right software for your unit? [LEFT]If you choose the wrong one, other than the product it is designed for, it will render the unit inoperative.[/LEFT]Duck Commander;12322 wrote:Now my problem is more than this, Montana stopped working it is even not switching on, so I have to send it back to the dealer :((((-

Ya DK it is the right one for Montana only 4.04 beta which a lot of people are using, before resetting I was using it and after reset I install it again. Only oone mistake I did I just disconnect it from the PC without removing it safely but it is not a blunder I think I made:((((-Desert King;12324 wrote:DC, Did you update the right software for your unit?

Disconnecting the unit without removing it safely can damage the file system.Duck Commander;12327 wrote:Ya DK it is the right one for Montana only 4.04 beta which a lot of people are using, before resetting I was using it and after reset I install it again.

Never use Beta systems. Beta means still not finished and under testing. Why you need to be a tester?Duck Commander;12327 wrote:Ya DK it is the right one for Montana only 4.04 beta which a lot of people are using, before resetting I was using it and after reset I install it again.

This was the story in W2K and today it is only a rumour. Since WXP is no need to remove the device with Safely remove operation, unless there is still some writing activity.Desert King;12328 wrote:Disconnecting the unit without removing it safely can damage the file system.

[LEFT]I am using the Beta version 4.04 and the map Garmin City Navigator Middle East & Northern Africa NT 2013.10. Never had a problem. Everything functioning properly. Lot of my friends are also using the same. Never heard any issue with them.[/LEFT]caprihorse;12330 wrote:Never use Beta systems. Beta means still not finished and under testing.
