Basecamp Route Problems Or is it the Nuvi 2555
I create a custom route in basecamp upload to my Nuvi2555. Go to "trip Planner" find route. I am past the starting point of the route and I select the route I made and click on "GO" at this point I get a list of starting points. If I choose the final destination it wants to take a different route to reach that point.

i deleted my gmapprom.img file
I do not have any detailed map info. I deleted my gmapprom.img file from my Nuvi 255w by accident. I do have a backup of my device and files. However, i cannot simply cut and paste from my computer to my device. There is not enough space. It seems odd that pasting a file that was just deleted would not fit since it is the same file.
HELP!

Route calc.
When will we see the first GPS unit taking traffic lights and stop signs into route calculation? I think that would be the killing feature for the competition.

P9 Traffic?
This has happened a number of times on my 765T, maybe everytime it reports traffic, but I hear what sounds like "P9 traffic ahead." I haven't figured out what it is saying or what it means. Any ideas?

Nuvi 50LM Question
I got a good price on a new in the box 50LM.
I've had very basic GPS before, but I'm a newbie to it's functions compared to the 2 previous units.
The only POI's I have uploaded were golf courses and Harley Davidson dealers.
Today the unit sounded and a "camera" banner came up on the screen about 200 ft before this area's well known red light/speed camera.

Custom POI for Nuvi 1490 LMT
I have downloaded Extra POI Editor so I can create custom POI's for a road trip.
Is there a way to get the custom POI to show up larger than a dot on the map? I tried selecting the flag and it still shows up as a dot.
Thanks from a Garmin newbie.

GPS and Airport X-Ray
I would like to bring my GPS System [on vacation] with me. to use it on my rental car, Is there any danger in going through the security check points at the airport with the system? Could it be corrupted in any way by going through the xray machines? What is the best way to travel with it by air?

My 2460 Was So Confused
I have had my 2460 for about 14 months now and I generally like it and I do talk to it a lot while we are traveling. Last year we took a big trip out West and had good luck with Veronica (My 2460). Took us a few strange ways but never had to back out of anywhere. This year we took a trip through VA, TN, and NC. We took a lot of state and county roads.

Calculated time to home way wrong 765T
This past weekend I went on an overnight trip about 75 miles south of my home. We headed home the next day and my GPS said it was going to take 3 1/5 hours to make what is usually a 90 minute trip home. My wife asked if there was a freeway shut down or real bad traffic causing a really long way home.

Searching POI by name - very slow
On Nuvi 765t, whenever I need to find a POI (a regular one), if I search by categories, the results come up almost instantly. But if I try to search by name, it always takes an unbelievably long time, sometimes 10 minutes and more - even when it eventually returns the very POI's that are not far away, and would be among the first ones if searched by category.

Is my GPSMAP 60 dead?
I went to download a bunch of GC's to my GPS last night and they wouldn't transfer. I tried using the cable from my car GPS and that wouldn't work either. The handhelds cable works with my car GPS so I think the cable is good.

dezl 560 only shows 50 records in a custom POI
I have loaded several POI into my dezl560. When I try and brows through them on the device it will only show 50. when I load the same POI's into my PC I see all the records. Does anyone know if there is a way to show more the 50 records per POI file, or do I just have to break the files down into groups of 50 records or less?

My Nuvi 760 is a complete train wreck
Guys, I can't pinpoint the exact time when my 760 started acting up, but it's essentially unusable at this time. I did an update to 5.30 and installed BaseCamp maybe a couple months ago. I haven't used the Nuvi much since then. I tried to use it in the past week and have had major issues with it. There are a bunch of things wrong.
Accessin POI on Nuvi 1450T
I downloaded rest stops along the interstate several months ago. I'm preparing to travel and would like to review rest stops along my route. Can anyone tell me how to access this on my device?
Thanks
