Q: How can I save, open, and view a map download on a Mac?
A: When you click an Alternate Route map download box, a new window opens and the downloading image will materialize on your screen. (Now there are two tabs on your browser; one contains the map image and the other has this Q & A, so you can refer back and forth as needed). Right click the image and choose "save image as," then choose the folder you want to save it to, and click “save.” In Finder, go to the folder you saved the image to, and locate the Hubs and Routes map file. Double click the file and the image will open in Preview. The Preview window may need to be re-sized larger by grabbing an edge(s) and dragging it.
