Do you have your csv files

Do you have your csv files placed in a folder?When you run POI Loader are you directing it to that folder and not the csv files?

it is a .csv file and i've tried to upload it by just selecting the file it is in and it won't work.

You can't select the file. You must put it in a FOLDER and then select the FOLDER when POI Loader asks for the source of the data.

Just make you a file on your computer and name it My POIS.Put the csv in the MyPOIS folder.Hook gps up to computer using usb cable.Run poi loader.On browse for the folder location.Pick location of My POIS folder not the csv file.Continue on with poi loader instructions.
