Find coordinates of location on Nuvi 755T

 

I have a Nuvi 755T. I saved a location via the "Where Am I" function. I came back to the Nuvi later and I tried to find the Lat/Long coordinates of the site I saved. I can not find any way of getting the coordinates.

Is there any way that the Nuvi will tell me the coordinates?

I just pull up my favorites

I just pull up my favorites with Extra Poi Editor to get the coordinates.

Thanks... I do not have that installed on my laptop so I followed your link and eventually got to...

I downloaded the latest version and will install it.

Anyone know if there is some built-in function in the Nuvi to get the coordinates info?

Another suggestion.I was

Another suggestion.I was just looking at this after seeing your question.If touch where to,then coordinates.It brings up your current coordinates.Touch next then save.Put name in then done.This will give you record of coordinates with name.I am setting at home doing this and would expect the coordinates to change for another location.Just a idea.

I just tried to do the same

I just tried to do the same thing you did, What i got from the where to and then save it, name it, then go to the favorites and it tells me the name i saved it under and the co ordance is listed. and then when i tap go. it takes me there but upon arival it showes only the name.

When it gets to go you only

When it gets to go you only see the name.But when you touch favorites it shows name and coordinates giving you a record.If you are trying to put more informationin other then what is listed under edit you can't like the address.I put in suggestion to Garmin about this short coming.

It was easier on the old StreetPilot

There are several methods listed on Gary Hayman's page: http://home.comcast.net/~ghayman3/garmin.gps/index.html

In a nutshell, if you have a place saved as a Favorite (Waypoint) or POI, start by putting your nüvi into simulator mode. Then select Where To, the point in question, Show Map, Set Loc. Then touch and hold back until it takes you to the top screen. Select View Map, and then touch the vehicle icon. It will then show the coordinates of that point along with other info.

This is been the easiest one for me to remember. It was a lot easier on the original StreetPilots. If someone knows an easier way, please share it with us.
