Transferring Favorites.

 

Hi.

I just bought a nuvi 2595LTM and want to transfer my favorites from my nuvi 765t to the 2595. What is the easiest way to do this?

Thank you.

Copy the Current.gpx file from the gpx folder on the old Nuvi to your computer. Rename the transferred file to temp.gpx.

Copy Temp.gpx to the gpx folder on the new Nuvi. Restart the Nuvi and all your old favorites will be on the new unit.

You should delete the temp.gpx once you check that your favorites appear properly on the new device.

IMHO there is no need to use GE unless your forced to for a map update.

Just in time

Just what I needed to know, there is a gift under the tree and I am sure I will be doing some transfering during the holiday.
Merry Christmas everyone.
