Did you try a factory reset?

I did not.  The dealer has the bike and I will pick it up today.  We will see what they say.

unzip location POI file copy BOTH  NAVISYNC folder and the SWDL.ISO file to root of thumb drive no other files..

Hey Chuck, this is all I got when I unzipped the latest download. 

[WTF Chuck]

There is another download for the dealer POI file.

Curious if anyone has successfully completed an update by downloading the file to a Mac versus PC.  I have only used a PC to this point as I had heard that the Mac environment wasn't supported.  Thinking of trying something different this time.  I've successfully downloaded the file to my Mac just haven't copied to the flash drive yet.  Wondering if the file format will be different and get rejected when trying to import into the bike.

[WTF Chuck]

My understanding is that you can do the firmware 1.20..2 update with a Mac But you can not do the Map update or the Dealer POI update with the MAC. I do not have a Mac but there is plenty of info about it on all the forums.

Thanks.  I'll try the firmware update this weekend.

Hmmm,maybe thats my problem...  I've always been able to do the software updates from my Mac, but I can't seem to do this Dealer POI update.....Hmmm...

It is doable on a Mac. Problem is it required my 13-year-old daughter's help to do so. And I can't even begin to describe what she did to convert it to a compatible file. But she did and I loaded it and it worked.

Got it. TY sir.

Major glitch

 I did the up date a few days ago sat in the shop and played with the system few times each day everything worked great. Went to leave on bike this morning system comes up black screen and logo
nothing on system works  shut bike off screen still on bike tried factory reset would not work Decided to pull the main fuse waited
min or 2 put it back together and it has worked perfect all day on
and off many times.

The reason for the report is because there are a number of owners that are seeing  this and some whose systems do not come back on so I would hope there would be a quick fix. Big BUG But if you have it happen I would try the pull the main fuse procedure.
in the book.

I have successfully updated radio firmware using my Mac book pro.  The maps are impossible to update with a MAC unless you run windows on your mac or parallels. 

I was able to get my dealer service department to update the maps for me.

3 days after the dealer did this update (1.20.2) the radio would not turn on, worked ok for the 3 days prior to today.  Finally got the radio on then no speaker sound.  Radio is set to play through speakers only.  Dealer put the old software back on the bike, all ok this morning & all day riding. Said that there were some glitches in the early versions of this update, they had the most recent "ok" version (1.20.2) but I elected to stay with the older version 1.20.1 since it worked ok & did not notice any big improvement with that update anyway.

May eventually update to the new version but by then it wil probably be 1.25.40.

I did both my Boom Software updates on my 6-year-old iMac with no issues.  Just made sure my thumb drive was formatted in Fat32.  I did, however, have to do the Nav software via NaviExtras using a friends PC.

Update Update

 Rode and used the system again all day today
many starts and stops NO problems So i will say again if you have
Black Screen failure I would pull the main fuse for a min or so.

Spoke with Harley on the phone for about 45 min today they have just pulled 1.20.2 from the down load site and are working on the fix. So if you have not updated to .2 you should wait for new release.
