How can i tell what year maps are on my garmin 760

Goto menu and information and maps.
it will tell you the map version, though map date is about a year ahead of real date.
if it says 2010 it could be a 2009 map.

Up date maps

To update maps you should run Tom Tom home on your computer and then connect the GPS

It will then ask you if you want to connect to the computer and you would tell your GPS yes.

Tom Tom home will once it finds your GPS then proceed to do any minor updates.

If your map is out of date it will offer you the option of purchasing a newer version.

don't be tempted to look for free / pirate maps !
These can cause problems in starting up your GPS (believe me)

Tom Tom map prices are not too bad and compared to many GPS are quite easy to install using Tom Tom home.

If you don't have Tom Tom home the latest version can be found here.

I purchased a new tomtom one us cananda version and map is out of

You have 30 days from the time of purchase to get the newest map guaranty from tt. You will have to call tt to get it. It will probably help if you register your tt before you do this.
Hope this helps

You'll just need to call Nextar customer support and purchase the updated map then you can install it on your device. There's no free map download, you can only get it from them

Up date of road maps

Reinstall TomTom Home and make sure you update your drivers if asked to do so. You also may want to download maps directly from TomTom's map store - http://www.tomtom.com/products/maps/select.php

In order to update your Garmin Nuvi 205W's system version, you'll need to download software which checks your unit's current version and updates it to the latest version. The current version available is 2.9.1.0 as of December, 2009. Garmin makes it easy by installing a browser plugin instead of having to install a software package. The WebUpdater plugin can be downloaded here:
http://www8.garmin.com/products/webupdater/howtoinstall.jsp

In order to install the plugin you must first agree to the license agreement. You will then need to close all of your open browsers that are open on your computer to finish the install. Once you have, the plugin will start to install. To finish the system update, Garmin lists several steps on a page;

Disconnect your 205W from your laptop or desktop and let it restart
Once you see the main screen, you can connect it back to your computer and wait 30 seconds.
On the next screen, click the 'Find Devices' button and then click the 'Next' button.

Once your computer finds your 205W and you initiate the update, the plugin will install the new system to your unit.

Hope helps.
