I updated mine for the first time yesterday directly from a USB stick. I even got out of the car at about 66% completion, when I came back, the car had switched off, but my map update had completed, at least that is what the car told me when I tried to update again.

 

Ok, I'll try it with another USB stick .... it's just a pain that the download takes so long :roll:

Can't argue with that! The whole process is pretty cumbersome, especially as it seems to be pretty much a monthly thing.

 

Different USB stick, different result! I have maps once again, so that the Satnav no longer thinks I am on a planet covered entirely by ocean.

That will be a few years from now if people keep buying ICE vehicles....

 

What's the point in updating? One of Norway's main road, Europe Road 6 has had a change for 9 months now. Jaguar are still on the old one. Don't seem to get updated.. poorly done..

 

I've just downloaded the latest map software for my Ipace and inserted the USB stick. All seems well until about 30% into the update then I get this message. Has anyone else had this?

I had this yesterday. I wonder if the I-Pace is very picky on the USB sticks it will use. It has to be a 32Gb stick (or format will be exFAT or NTFS that Jaguar do not recognise), it seems to need a high speed certified USB stick. My map installation was rejected in the same way, I bought a new High Speed USB stick and downloaded directly to the stick and I now have working navigation again. If Jaguar are going to be picky on the devices, they should publish it.
I have also found it is picky about media USB sticks as well and my metal 32Gb stick, on which navigation update failed, gets hot when used as media provider.

I have two apparently identical models of USB stick, the Sandisk USB 3.1 128GB Ultra fit - one works, the other doesn't. One was made in Malaysia the other in China, the one came pre-formatted FAT32 & works fine, the other exFAT which I quick formatted to FAT32, this doesn't work!!! I work in IT and I find this extremely strange... currently waiting for a Full slow format of the stick that doesn't work to see if that makes a difference.

Are you sure one's not a fake? There are a lot of them about ....

 

Got my Sandisk in Asda for £10. When on offer.
Fine for map updates.

LongShot: I've had problems (unrelated to iPace etc) with USB stick formatted "on one device" and then used "on another device", but I don't know how you could influence that.

No idea.... they both look identical except for the "made in..." location

 

How exactly does it not work? Beware that some SanDisk devices uses disk controllers that show up as disk drives instead of removal storage. SanDisk this was a Windows 8 certification thing. The Map Downloader tool will reject the drive if that's the case.

I bought a Sony USB 3.1 64Gb stick today and updated that maps. Worked like a charm.

 

Just used my sandisk 32gb to do another mapupdate.
I usually only do this once a year. But I live in hope they will update the charger locations and make the map icons a little larger, so it's more frequent now

 

It's in the car it doesn't work, it show up in the sources list with it's name, but is greyed out, similar to the one that works for the first few seconds whilst it's reading in the stick but it stays greyed out.

 

This is a picture of my one. Which I got from Asda a week or so ago.

More than happy to post it to you, if you want to borrow it.

 

I got peed off with all the faffing about with USB sticks and exFat/Fat32 etc.
I just used an SD card that works in my DSLR. My Macbook has an SD card slot but the Here software didn't like that. So, I put the same SD Card into a USB adapter and bingo it worked.
With all the files loaded I put the USB adapter + SD Card into the car and the updating went perfectly.

I've had many 'failures' over the years with one Fat32 format NOT being identical to another Fat32 format. I did a test a few years ago when I had a problem updating the Firmware of a device we were using at a site in the middle of the Jordanian Desert. Windows 7 and 8 formatted (as Fat32) USB sticks didn't work. Neither did OSX/MacOS ones. but... Ironically, one formatted on Linux did. Go figure.

I had a fake supplied from a reputable source once - it looked perfectly fine to me except that when I tried to format it, it showed as a considerably smaller capacity than it was supposed to be. I sent photos of the packaging and device to SanDisk who confirmed it wasn't genuine and the supplier sent a replacement, so even they can be fooled.

I have had a number of fake Sandisk micro SD cards from an Internet source which were rejected by my Mavic Pro because of transfer speed. I tried a couple of cheap USB sticks in the I-Pace for both media and Navigation update to which the Jag responded "I spit on your cheap USB sticks". I bought a 32GB USB 3.0 from PCWorld and it works fine. Don't know if it is a speed issue or just the quality of the USB sticks. I also tried a 64GB USB for media but Jag does not like exFAT.

I've got one that works, thanks for the offer - just confused why the one does and the other doesn't - really appreciate the gesture

I'll try Linux next to format the drive, it won't beat me
