c330 on the computer

I'm assuming you loaded the 'web updater' from the website?

yes i have ,and it says there are no new updates for my unit.

except for the voice updates in forgein language that i dont need

You can add and remove custom poi's but you can not delete files from the gps itself

than you're up to date on the version and downloads......load the poi update from same site and their you can add or delete files on your device..

right, thats what I meant, only delete what you added, like pois....what files do you want to delete?....there should'nt be anything other than pix, pois and mp3 I think....

i guess were confused, if you can see update program/window, than what cant you find?

from what ive read ,when hooked up to my computer and turned on i should be able to go to "my computer" and my gps should show up and i should be able to click on that and access the gps files from there?

Are you trying to load custom poi's to your gps?Your c330 will not show up on your computer as a mass storage device.Only allows you to add or remove custom poi's.

I am setting here reading your response and just turned on and plugged in my c330 and it doesn't come up on my system (windows xp) and does not show up anywhere. Any thoughts ????

You need to install poi loader to get custom poi's from computer to gps http://www8.garmin.com/products/poiloader/

that's what we do not want. I want to delete ALL the language files except English....

You can not access the files on the gps.C330 is not a mass storage unit.If you are trying to make more room for the 2008 maps you will have to split it up to the unit and a sd card.

i know how to load custom pois ,im just trying to figure out how to get rid of voice file and what not from it through the computer,i thought you could do that?

Not on a C330

No you can't access the gps files because it will not show up as storage unit on your computer.

The c330 was (as I read somewhere) one of the original color touch screen gpsr units that allowed you to load the whole US and Canada at once. There have been many changes since then, but it is still a great basic unit. You should be able to load 15,000 to 30,000 poi's easily to your unit. Remember to not load any mp3's as they can't be used. If you load a lot of bmp they can use space as well, but not that much...

ive loaded'08 and have canada on the sd card but what i would like to do (if possible)is load canada on the unit and the lower 48 on the card,to me that would free up even more memory on the unit because canada has 430mb and lower 48 has 950mb,has any one tried this and was succesful?

"but what i would like to do (if possible)is load canada on the unit and the lower 48 on the card"

Yes, You can add Canada to the unit and the lower 48 states to an SD Card. But why are you looking to free up so much space? I'm just curious since you can't load mp3 files that you might need room for.

And this would allow you to add maps from mapsource, but you could load those on the SD card, also. If you are wanting the space for poi's, this is not the same space used for that.

Sorry to quote you bandaid, but it pertained.

yes mainly for more pois,i have 20,100 now and i am still adding,its just nice to have the extra space when needed,especially when some of the pois have a bit of info on them

Very cool! That c330 is a great little unit nvrlate22.
