I have a Magellan POI file. I would like to transfer this POI data into a recognize Garmin format like .CSV or Garmin's POI. Is this possible? If so, anyone can provide your expertise? Thank you!

Nice converter, but it

Nice converter, but it doesn't have the drop down Magellan.POI extension selection. I tried all the other Magellan's converter format..with no luck. Please advise?

Mapsend

If you have Mapsend, it will export the waypoints as text or as an Excel file. Either way, you can then reformat as a CSV file.

POIEdit

Try POI Edit, it works pretty well.

I'm pretty sure you are out of luck.....unless you want to sign up as a third-party developer and get their software tools, which probably come at a substantial price.
