Aviation Database won't load

[Sportsman7064]

All,

About to depart for Oshkosh on Saturday and went to load the latest aviation database. Yesterday I grabbed the "next cycle" version that starts on July 25th and put it on the root directory of a thumb drive. When I go to load it on the panels, the system sees the file, asks if I'm sure I want to load it, but when I push the button to start the load, it takes a fraction of a second and says Done. I look at the installed database and it is still the old one.

Not sure what I'm doing wrong here...

Just double-checked it here and it works. I wonder if your file on the stick is corrupt? It should be 8737kb (or so). Which version of SkyView are you running? What's the file name you're trying to load?

 

[Sportsman7064]

The file name is FAA_av1408_ob1404_10.1.duc and is 8737K.

I have the US 10.1 package from May.

I re-downloaded the file onto two additional (different) thumb drives and will see if I can get to the airport later this morning for another try.

Worst case scenario I'll Accept the out of date files on the Skyview for my trip as I have a borrowed iPad and Foreflight combo for charts and airport info...

Must have been the thumb drive somehow. Using a different one the load was successful. Thanks!

I have no idea why the latest database took close to 30 minutes to synch displays, and I have had the same issue since 10.0 upgrade. I usually see it synch before I even get to the runway. I ended up flying and was 30 minutes into a flight before the synch completed.
Is this a sign of a problem between my screens?
thanks!

We definitely have some investigation to do here. In the meantime, disconnecting the Ethernet connection and load each display isn't a perfect solution, but it will get rid of the sync time issue.

No problem. let me know if there is anything I can provide. Seems like I am the only one with this issue, as no one else appears to have this problem.
Thank you!

I must have the same problem. I loaded the new database a couple of minutes later it hadn't transferred so I stuck the usb in the second screen and loaded it that way. All seems ok. I figured i forgot to plug in the ethernet cable and i would check later.
