Yes, I am.

Although it works, copying maps into the application bundle of BaseCamp is a bad idea. As soon as you install an update of BaseCamp, you will loose your maps this way...

This was only a first try, while I did not know about MapManager. I reversed all the changes I made.

MapManager puts the maps in the place where they belong (in {username}/Library/Application Support/Garmin/Maps to be precise).

Thank you. I found out about this meanwhile myself.

Chainging the FID is the way to go; not with MapSetToolKit (because it's a Windows program) but with JaVaWa GMTK ("Javawa" isn't very descriptive, since I'm offering some 15 different applications)

Thank you again. I looked up the website of JaVaWa, but was confused about the different tools, and what to use and if there was the right tool available for OS X.
I will give GMTK a try.

Hi,

I'm just started with OSM und Garmin. I want to have the maps of Germany and Mallorca in Basecamp.
So I downloaded both one of a time.

First I did not know about MapManager, so I just copied the unzipped "Roadtrip" folder to recources, which worked fine for Mallorca. With Germany it did not. I found out, the two maps have the same values in info.xml, only the names differ between "OSM World Routable (01-04-2012)" and "OSM World Routable".
I googled and found MapManager and deleted the maps I manually copied to the program dir.
The problem is somewhat the same. Whatever map I install first, it is there. The second one is installed fine - MM says - but never shows up in MM itself. If I delete the map and try the other one first, this one is there, the other one not.

Is there any way to install two downloaded maps independently?
