Just like ConiKost mentioned - the new firmware 5.90 'triggers' Garmin Express to use the new map administration and this new map administration prevents the user from installing the maps also to pc/mac. It's not only no the newest 7.4.0.0., but also on the former 7.3.1.0. version of GE...

I have found the option to display or to not display the 'contour lines' under 'Map Layers'.
I do not remember seeing this option before.
