Thank you very much, it worked for me.
The maps and POI data are valid and I was able to use them to update a Magellan Maestro 3225.
But it is not an automatic update. What you have to do is connect the GPS device to your computer with a USB cable and then copy files from the download and replace them in the MAP file on the GPS device one by one.

FlippyJeez (2009-12-16)

Worked on my Maestro 4250. Thank you!!
I first tried it using an SD card. It was very slow and it didn't update any of the maps. I also noticed it couldn't or it was very slow to acquire satellite signal. I was about to make a comment when I read digigeek's comment and tried it. Worked perfectly! Don't know why I didn't think of doing that before, LOL.
My base map is now v 35; my detailed map is now v 37; my AAA data version is now 7.0; So far, so good. If I find any problems, I'll come back and update. Cheers!

skwerlabusr (2009-12-17)

There is a new update for the AAA Tourbook. The new version is 8.0 and I will be uploading the file. It's just an exe file that has step by step setup and guides you through connecting the USB and everything.

digigeek (2009-12-18)

Thank you for everything skwerlabusr.
However, I must say that as a member of the SPCA, I do not approve of your handle :)

ryry101 (2009-12-29)

Cant get the gps past the magellan boot screen after I copied the files over. I have the magellan roadmate 1470 . Any ideas ??

dude100 (2010-01-16)

I have a 3225 i did the replace file method and it geezzed out my unit (realy slow) put back old file and it was fast again i will try the update method next and let you know.

dude100 (2010-01-16)

i tried the sd card way and the unit dosen't use the new map, can You post the sd cards "disk lable" mabe that is were the problem is, it may need to see the correct lable to use it. also mabe you could try to use ultra iso and create a disk image for us to try. thanks ...

srecinos (2010-02-07)

It works just fine, and it even gets you mexico maps!!!! Thanks

srecinos (2010-02-07)

I have Maestro 4250! What you have to do is connect the GPS device to your computer with a USB cable and then copy files from the download and replace them in the MAP file on the GPS device one by one.
My base map is now v 35; my detailed map is now v 37; my AAA data version is now 7.
Thanks!!!

jsup (2010-02-07)

does this update work for maestro 4220???

iirybackii (2010-02-19)

RoadMate doesn't have enough memory for US48.imi and US48.poi
I used the copy and paste method as opposed to the SD method.
I'm assuming since the 1470 does not have enough memory that you have to leave all the US48 info on the SD micro disk and the RoadMate will still be able to read it if you just leave the disk in it?

medicweber (2010-03-01)

Not to sound silly, but how do you download this? I get a 22KB file when I try to download it. I must be missing a step somewhere?

skwerlabusr (2010-03-09)

Digigeek: haha that is a long story how I got that name. But don't worry it's not literal or perverted in any way!

skwerlabusr (2010-03-09)

Medicweber: You have to use a torrent program such as uTorrent to open that file you downloaded. Then you have to wait for the actual maps to download... But we all do wish it were that small and quick!

crash8 (2010-03-17)

Does anyone have or know of an update for the Maestro 4050? It's not on this list, but I hoped beyond hope that it would work anyway, but... well... it didn't... heheh. After installing the new files, it shows the correct map version number on my GPS settings, but it's kinda screwy. POIs show street numbers, but no street names and when I try enter a street address, it says the street is not in my database even though I just selected it from a list of streets that included the same street it's saying isn't in the database. Maybe I'm just doing something wrong? Can't imagine what it could be, though.

ackupo (2010-03-22)

Works with RoadMate 1430. Just overwritten my previous files and tested it. Toronto, ON, Canada here =). Just remember to update your firmware before putting this in. Thanks for upload!

pedmag2 (2010-04-02)

Hi..I am looking for some help. I have the 4250 and would like to install the new map. I have downloaded the torrent, but cannot seem to find the files people are talking about...what have I done incorrectly or what am I missing???

mikie97 (2010-05-16)

for three days now,this program has been seeding. I what to try to upload this2009 spring map from utorrent to my computer then to my GPS.
but I can't anybody trying tell us how to do this.
this utorrent progam is the hardest thing to understand.looks like I'll have just go and buy the sd card from magellan

bt017 (2010-05-16)

Anyone get this to work on a maestro 4000?

itsko177 (2010-05-22)

I have a 4040 and the update worked great, I now have 35 for the base map and version 37 for the detailed map. Followed the simple directions and it worked great.

frankenberry (2010-06-03)

There are two other files on there...speech and sounds...do I move these over as well or do I need to find where they are on the drive and replace them...thanks, Mary :)

faheyd (2010-06-08)

@gofreemovies read the instructions again.
Did you do a back up as per the instructions?
See 4.&5.

sw33ts (2010-06-09)

I tried to copy these files to an SD card, but when I put the card in my Roadmate 1212 with the latest firmware, it still shows basemap v33. According to magellangps.com's site, the version should be 37.
Does anyone here who has purchased the SD card from magellan know what the directory/file structure of the official card looks like when you view it from a PC?

krazykipa (2010-07-05)

For those of you that can't get this to work: make SURE you are running the latest firmware version for your model. You can find this software at the Magellan site:
Then use whichever method (I used copy to flash memory on my Magellan RoadMate 1412 NA) to install the new map files.
As far as I can tell, the SOUNDS and SPEECH folders are extraneous and unnecessary, as they are identical to the ones already on my GPS.
Happy seeding!

Th00b (2010-07-07)

I have the 3140 Model and after update, it keeps saying all my address are invalid. I tried it 3 times. I guess its not compatible with 3140 or I'm an idiot. lol

mashryock (2010-07-18)

Works great on the 4250. Do you have the new AAA update file V 10 just released? Thanks!

riotacey1 (2010-08-29)

for 3200 owners copy contents to a 2GB fat32 formated sd card, pop sd card into sd card slot and LEAVE IT THERE! thats all there is to it.

doodie999 (2010-09-10)

Hi skwerlabusr,
Would this Software work with Magellan Triton 2000.... Ive been checking and checking everywhere and theres no for Triton models...
Hope something can work out for North American Map

bob949 (2010-10-07)

Hi there, in my 1200 model the card is 1GB, but the file size is 1.58 GB. Will it work in my my case? Thank you

dom987 (2010-12-30)

@skwerlabusr
Which one do we use for the maestro 3140. It looks like the file in your comments is newer than the one you originally posted. Which one do I use.
Please and thank you.

secretws (2011-01-06)

please let me exactly which files to copy and replace, I tried to replace all files with my 1440, it does not work. thank you!

secretws (2011-01-06)

please tell me exactly which files to replace and how. I have tried to get it to work with my 1440, still stays with the old 35 map

cassae00 (2011-01-17)

Since the files are too large for the original 1gb SD card from Magellan I tried using a store bought 4gb SDHC card with no luck of the GPS reading the card. Any suggestion from those who got it to work?

skwerlabusr (2011-04-07)

The latest AAA update is here:
**For Maestro 4350 and 4370:

slytheus (2011-07-11)

It works perfectly for my Magellan Maestro 3225. You've saved my family from buying another GPS, haha. Thank you!

mashryock (2011-08-14)

Is this the latest map or is there a newer one? Thanks for the AAA files!!!

goglinpl (2011-09-20)

I've Googled high & low, but haven't found this *specific* issue addressed/resolved concerning the MAESTRO 3100:
Has anyone experienced street address range anomalies or 'address not found in database' issues after applying the map updates? The base map appears to work great, but I get weird behavior with specific addresses. For example, street address number ranges come up as 100-199 for a LOT of streets - streets I know for a fact that have a lot larger range of addresses.
Was there perhaps another mod to any of the OS config files necessary?

Hyperian (2011-09-22)

I put these maps in the map folder and it just stays in the loading screen. How do i get it go to the main screen and go to the map?
