Try connecting with the computer in Basecamp/device/update, then it should accept the registration.

Just a follow up to this - maybe Garmin fixed a loophole in their system? I definitely cannot put additional imagery onto my GPSr, even topos previously downloaded with the same unit. Interestingly enough, I can download additional topos but cannot push them to my device.... it gives a subscription error.
Maybe this was "resolved" via an update for BaseCamp? I'm running v4.7.2 for Windows.

I went to load up my GPS for next week's trip & discovered that I'm unable to put any of the previously downloaded topos I have onto my unit. When sending the image files BaseCamp now phones home to determine device activation status for the product. I think this is a departure from previous functionality... right? IIRC before if you had downloaded the maps they were yours forever and you could put them onto any supported device.
Maybe I am mistaken, but that's how I remember it being discussed as how it worked. Ultimately NABD for me as I already have BWCA and Q topographics installed already - I ran into the issue trying to do some housekeeping moving some maps from internal memory to the SD card.

I have an eTrex 30x, the same unit I originally purchased & downloaded the topos with.

Yes supported products only, the down load Birdseye maps are your files and can be reused and reinstalled, but only to Gamin registered products. I have my Birdseye on my home computer, can transfer them on and off the 62st, and Nuvi automotive units I have. Even swapped to a new home computer system last spring and after the Basecamp install I could re-install the imagery.
What were you attempting to transfer to?
