I had the same problem.
First, don't use Firefox as I could never get it to work; use Internet Explorer instead.
Second, although you will still get the same non-error in IE, when you do get to that second page you've shown, click on "Edit" for the Device Number.
I'm not sure how, but after entering the same information about three times, it eventually only asked me for the Device Number and left out the Database Version field that's causing the problem.

So today I had to call the Acura side there number works 1-888-549-3798
The girl said that it's not working cuz there's no update avail. is argued that others have received the update already. She just ignored what I was saying and continued to repeat the same thing that "there's no update blah blah blah" that and the fact there number doesn't work either.

That's interesting considering that mine will be arriving on Thursday and that you have screenshots.
I wish I knew what exactly it was that made mine work, but I just kept repeating the process until it stopped asking me for the VIN and Database Version. In the end, it only asked me for my serial number.

Wonder if Honda will issue a update to our I-MID software as well since both the '12 and '13 are using the same navi just with added features.

If they do offer an update, you'll have to get it from the dealership since the i-Mid can only be modified through the OBD diagnostic port. So says CHH anyway.

One thing the map update will also do is update the radio touch screen firmware too

??????? what do you mean ?

 

[Pir8pete]

when updating the map, it updates the units firmware, so the 2012's will get new options.

 

[jasonandre]

when updating the map, it updates the units firmware, so the 2012's will get new options like notify if there a txt etc...

How do you know this? Have you already installed it?
None of that was mentioned in the description of the update when purchasing it.

 

[webby]

I'd love to hear confirmation of that as well

 

[webby]

I've had map updates from honda in the past and it purely updated points of interest, new roads, changes to businesses etc.

 

[brown_bear]

Well it is USB based this time and not a disc, so who knows, that would be awesome but i'd prefer honda give us fro updates to navs since the 2013's came out

I see no mention of the 2012 civic having a dvd optical drive. Has anyone put a dvd-r of data/music etc in the drive to see if it reads anything?

DO NOT ORDER RIGHT NOW
Pir8pete
I received mine in the mail today and it doesn't work.
Part of the installation process requires a password that is generated from Navteq when ordering the update. Those passwords aren't going out as they should be because of the problem with their website.
After contacting Navteq, they've informed me that they are still working on the issue and that a password will be provided at some later date.
So for now, I'd recommend holding off the purchase until you hear otherwise.
