Hi, is there any way I can transfer the data I have from my old Street Pilot to my new Nuvi 40? I would like to be able to keep all my POI, favorites, recent places? Is there a web page somewhere that can tell me how to do this, Thanks, Happy holidays to all

I was instructed by Garmin

I was instructed by Garmin Support to use their free Basecamp software. I was only partially successful as it would not import Routes.

Also, some of the Waypoinrs seems to be inaccurate.

I would try it and then test.

First, do a complete backup

First, do a complete backup of your streetpilot.

Look at http://www.poi-factory.com/node/30393 to make sure your PC system settings are correct.

Then look at http://www.poi-factory.com/node/30394 to do the backup.

At this point you should have most of the files you might need for transfer.
