POI,,,stupid question (where are custom POIs on Zumo 550)

The Zumo 500 and the 550 will show them under Custom poi's when loaded with the Garmin Poi loader not under your favorites

Download options Location-based content: Garmin Travel Guide,™ SaversGuide® and custom points of interest (POIs).
You can also use Customized vehicle icons for moving map

Remember in this forum, there is no dumb question, all of us at one time or another felt illiterate as to knowing the ins and outs of GPS. We do however suggest to all newcomers to use the search engine first and then if you cannot find the answer to your question, all of use all willing to help anyone who is in need.

Well if the question and answer are in FAQ....

For everyone: Please check the FAQ before posting.

I loaded several POI files including the redlight cameras, state parks and several others, and lastly Harley dealers. I was able to see all the POIs then the unit asked to import new data, I said yes and now all I can see is the Harley dealers. Anyone know what happened? are the other POIs still there or did they get deleted?

Do you use poiloader and direct it to the main folder.If you done 1 poi custom file and went back and done another it overwrites it.They all need to be in a folder and downloaded all at one time.

And on the Zumo it's better to always load them to the Zumo itself and not to the SD card. Otherwise you will always get the prompt to import the data and there's no way to get rid of the prompt.

I put all POIs in a folder and installed them and when the unit asked to manage new data I said no and they are all there now. Thanks for the help.
