I'm a newbie, but have loaded several POI files already via Garmin POI loader, but for some reason, the Harley-Davidson file won't load on my street pilot. It is on my laptop, but when I run POI loader, it is not "seen"! Any help is appreciated. Dmill1

.

Are you being sure to select the FOLDER that the GPX file is contain in on your computer and not the FILE itself.

Otherwise, are you sure that the file isn't corrupt? Can you open it with other programs? EasyGPS, GeePeeEx, etc.?

Back to basics.
Look closely to be sure there is not a typo in the file name or extension.

Then check POI Loader to be sure it is not defaulting to look for .csv files ONLY. Might be a pull-down arrow box for other file extensions or "all files".

Not really familiar with your equipment or software but I've been in a place like this on more than one occasion. mrgreen
