Not Enough Memory Error for My Edge in Garmin Express

Seeing a "Not Enough Memory" error in the Garmin Express™ program when installing initial map updates on certain Edge® cycling computers, is likely due to the inclusion of the Navigation Free ClimbPro maps which require additional space.

To resolve this error, use Managing Maps in Garmin Express to deselect one of the regional maps or keep an entire region and a subset of another region enabled, provided there is sufficient storage on the device. This can be done on the following Edge cycling computers: 

  • Edge® 540 | Edge® 540 Solar

  • Edge® 840 | Edge® 840 Solar

  • Edge® 1040 | Edge® 1040 Solar

  • Edge® 1050

To Remove a Regional Map

  1. Connect your device to your computer with the USB charging cable.

  2. Launch Garmin Express.

  3. Select your device.

  4. Select Manage Maps.

  5. Un-check the map you want to remove.

  6. Select Apply Changes

Once the regional TopoActive map is removed, you will now have the enough memory to enable a subset of another region on the Edge.
