Last year I paid for a map upgrade but my Content Manager showed that I had the latest upgrade. Thought upgrades came out twice a year.

This is not a free upgrade but a paid one, you will want to hop onto eBay and find a full retail version of Mac OS X 10.5 Leopard (Black and purple box)

Before starting any software or map update please ensure your device is fully charged.

Disable your firewall and/or antivirus software while you are having Content Manager check for updates.
Log out and log back into Content Manager, click on Check for Available Updates.
Uninstall and reinstall Content Manager


Make sure your GPS device is fully charged.
Connect your device to your computer with a USB cable. If it doesn't turn on automatically, turn it on. The GPS's screen should state that it is in USB mode. Once the installation begins, do not unplug your device.
Launch the free Content Manager software, or download here.
Right click on the Content Manager icon located in the system tray and select "Sync Purchase Features / Content".
You may be prompted to update your device software before the map upgrade begins.
Once the map upgrade begins, you will be able to view the download progress via the progress bar. (If the progress bar has been minimized go to the Content Manager icon in your task bar and left click it to display it again)
When the upgrade is complete, restart your GPS device.



NOTE: You must be logged in to your account using content manager or the Sync purchased feature option will be inaccessible to do this right click onto the content manager and select login

There are several online stores which provide map updates for Garmin devices. You can do a simple search for Garmin map updates to find several of these merchants. I upgraded my nuvi several months ago and found a lifetime update deal for about $100.00. With the lifetime option I can upgrade my unit twice a year for as long as I own it. Of course you can get a one time upgrade for about $70.00. I think the choice here is obvious.

Hello.

HOW TO UPGRAGE SOFTWARE ONLINE

If you are used to using an atlas or other map, you probablyalready know that new maps are issued each year because of changes on theroads. The same thing applies to the maps on GPS units. This means that if youhave a GPS unit, you need to update your GPS software regularly to make surethat you have the latest information. Each GPS manufacturer makes softwareupgrades available for GPS unit owners. Here are tools and instruction below
USB cable (as tool)
1 Visit the website forthe manufacturer of your GPS unit, such as Garmin or Magellan.
2 Go to the"Support" section of the site and then the "Downloads"area. This is where the latest upgrades are available for download.
3 Log in if you already havean account or key in the serial number of your GPS unit. Typically you get onefree upgrade on your unit, which is tracked by the serial number, which is whyyou have to enter it or have an account.
4 View the latest softwareupdates once you are logged in or have entered in the serial number. If you areeligible for the free upgrade, you will see it listed with no cost. If not, youwill see a price listed by the upgrade. Prices vary by manufacturer andupgrade, but average around $80 as of 2010.
5 Download the upgrade to yourcomputer or order the upgrade disk. According to CC Electronics & Gadgets,there is no difference between the two upgrade files. If you want to do animmediate update to the unit, you should download the upgrade instead of waitingfor the disk to arrive by mail.
6 Connect your GPS unit toyour computer with the USB cable that came packaged with it. When you do, theGPS update software will launch on your computer. If you have never installedthe GPS software onto your computer, you will need to use the disk that camewith the unit to install it so that it will launch for you.
7 Confirm that you want tosync the unit with the upgrade file that you download, or on the disk if youare using a disk. This will install the upgrade to your GPS unit. When itcompletes, you will get a message on your screen letting you know that it isdone. You can now disconnect the GPS from the computer. Thanks

No map upgrades have been available for the Finedrive line of GPS' for several years. I learned that they were produced by the same company as Navman, but they are no longer supported.

Maps for most GPS devices are updated several times a year. Your map is from 2010 and should be updated. You can go to the garmin site and pay to download and install upgraded maps or do a google search for map upgrades and you'll find some services offering lifetime upgrades for a few dollars more than the Garmin one time upgrade. I did this and have had no problems updating the maps on my Garmin Nuvi 250.

If a new map becomes available within 60 days of the satnav first receiving a satellite signal you get it free. If you only got the satnav there may not be an update at the moment. While the satnav may have been a while in the shop Halfords keep the maps up to date. Even if there was not a free update available myMaps in myGarmin should show if there's an update which could be paid for available. If it says no update available you probably have the latest version. A new map normally comes out in November though the dates vary. Keep a check by logging into myGarmin and checking on myMaps. When the new map becomes available it should show up there. It will let you know if it's free or not.

If you want to check what year the map on your satnav is:
Press TOOLS (the spanner symbol)
Press SETTINGS (or LOCALE if your satnav doesn't have a settings icon)
Press MAPS
Press MAP INFO at the bottom of the map page

This will show what map you have and the year of the map. If your map is the latest version it would explain why there's no updates

2009 is the latest mapping Garmin has. If your unit is running 2008 or before, and your unit was first used within the last 60 days, you can register your unit with Garmin.com and receive a free map update.

I emailed ferro-works.com and asked about if they could email a update or a link and they replied the latest map update for the e-gps10 is 2006, Mine says is was manufactured 10/2006 so it looks like they made it upgradable and havn't bothered to upgrade it yet if they plan to at all. A posting on the web said you could buy a Destinator upgrade, I looked and I couldn't find one for Nortech and the others were $99. I paid $99 for the navigator on discount so I wouldn't pay another $99 for a upgrade myself.
