Your computer either needs to have the compatible multi-drive slot or you need one of those USB multi-drive adapters to acept SD/MicroSD/etc cards. I've got one around here somewhere if interested. I'm showing the card you have to be able to plug into computer (SanDisk in the picture).
Updating: I have down loaded from Garmin Updates to the operating software and firmware for the Garmin unit. There may have been updates to the charts, too.
HomePort basically just allows you the work with the installed charts that are on the chip.
I've included a couple screen shots from HomePort showing one level of detail available. The whited areas are my waypoints not to spot burn.
