Hi all Mac users,
Looks like the v3.30 firmware for the Nüvi 880, is for the PC and not the Mac.
According to the Garmin website:
System requirements
IBM-compatible PC running Windows 2000 or later operating system and an available USB port.
Additionally, the downloadable file's extension is .exe. So unless you're running Windows on an Intel Mac, you're temporarily out of luck, until Garmin released a firmware update, compatible with the Mac.
Regards,

Version available via Web Updater on Mac?
If it's not yet, I probably will be soon.

Hi Keith,
That's what I'm hoping...

Life is not a journey to the grave, with the intention of arriving safely in a well preserved body, but rather to skid in broadside, thoroughly used up, totally worn out, and loudly proclaiming...WOW...What a Ride!!!
Can extract with Stuffit Expander
I was able to extract the file with version 10 of Stuffit Expander. You have to manually replace the firmware file then restart to install.
