In case others are having the problem I thought I had, you might find my solution of benefit.
The reason the Plugin did not work is that I had "ClickToPlugin v2.6" installed and had not modified the setting/preference to allow the Communicator to load.
Indeed, the problem was not the software or Garmin's tech support, but rather, Operator Error.
And of course, my most sincere apologies to Garmin.

But when I went to the Garmin.comDashboard page, I always got “Plugin Not Installed Exception”.
Many emails later and 2 hours of live/phone Garmin Tech Support did not resolve the issue and ended with the recommendation that I wait for the next version.
I like the GPS, but the SW & Tech Support are, IMNHO, unacceptable.
I cannot but conclude, that the Garmin SW Development Team and their tech support is Mac Challenged in the extreme.

I don't know if it was the new Safari 4.0.4 or the new build of Communicator - but this is the first time that this plugin has ever worked for me in Safari.

I could get the Garmin Communicator plug-in to load and Safari recognizes it fine.
Garmin's website says it can't find it.
I tried the tip of removing the Flip4Mac webpage plug-in, put that didn't work.
Finally ran uninstall for Flip4Mac and completely removed it.
Reran Garmin Communicator Plug-in install, and now everything works.
I'll just have to remember this next time there is a map update available - yeah right...LOL
Hope this helps someone else.

Test page detects the plug-in in Firefox 3.5.2 but not Safari 4.03

"This page asks to use a plugin that can only be run in 32-bit mode"
It doesn't appear that the latest plugin is compatible with my configuration (or, I've so severely constrained its ability to operate that is does not).

Following the tip from Mikencolo: I put Flip4Mac's plugins into a temp folder (Flip4Mac WMV Plugin.plugin and Flip4Mac WMV Plugin.webplugin)
Restarted Safari and success, the plug in is detected.
Now who'll fix the problem: Telestream or Garmin? ;)

Flip4Mac WMV Plugin.plugin must be left in the folder.

Went ahead, downloaded plug-in and installed.
Fired up Safari and went to the test page. Said the plug-in was not installed or the browser is not compatible.
Switched over to Firefox. Same results.
So I can't do anything with this. Yippee.
