Deleting POIs from GPS Unit

 

I would like to delete POIs from my Garmin Nuvi 670. I have connected the unit to my PC, but I can't tell what file to delete. Any suggestions?

.

You can use POI Loader to delete all the Custom POIs that you have loaded to your unit.

Also, you could navigate to the GARMIN folder on your unit and delete the POI.GPI file. This is the file that contains your Custom POIs.

Be sure not to delete anything else unless you know exactly what it is.

Did you mean custom POIs or the built in POIs

MM explains how to delete any custom POIs you may have loaded. You cannot delete the built in POIs.

Deleting POIs

POI Loader only clears out the poi.gpi file. It does not delete it or any other gpi files in the Garmin directory. You can delete all the gpi files manually.

Try loading a single POI, i.e. in the folder on your PC, store only a single POI and then use POI loader to load that to your GPSr. It should load that one and delete all of the others. If that doesn't work, let me know.

Are you using a PC or a MAC? Several postings have been made regarding deleting from a Mac.

Connect your GPSr to your PC. Look for the POI.GPI file. Delete that file.
