Roll Back

Anybody knows where can I find software version 5.10 for my 1490. I have tried the addresses provided in some previous posts but it just takes me to a buy map software page!

map update for sp330

just wondering if i got the newest updated mapping, would it still have the truck setting feature. my newer nuvi doesn't have it, and i don't want to keep buying units

Latest map update has screwed up default level of detail

Just updated to the latest map and now find that the default level of resolution is about 12,000 feet. In other words, just driving around 30 mph after turning on the unit, I see a map of the area with major roads shown within about eight miles. If I want to see what used to be the default resolution, I have to hit the plus sign about 10 times.

Anyone else had this problem?

where can I download RICHTX32.OCX

I downloaded ExtraPOIEditor but when I run it, I get an error that the program can't find file RICHTX32.OCX. Where can I download a SAFE copy of that file that runs under Vista?

Nüvi 1390T, cant find the file gmapprom.img etc...?

Just bought the Nüvi 1390T, Europe map, but cant find the maps, gmapprom.img etc. on the GPS in Explorer.
I have set the Explorer to show hidden files. The properties on the GPS in explorer shows files near 4GB, but counting the files visible is far from that size.

Any sugestions?

Can anybody post their garmin's GPS models, and how much memory it contains on board?

I'm hunting for another gps to replace my trusty nuvi 350, can anybody help me by posting their GPS model and how much memory it contains on board? Garmin's website doesn't show that info.

GarminError Log for Zumo 660

It has been a while and I forget how to view the errors logged on the zumo 660. I know I can hold the battery for THE diagnostics screen and hold the reception signals to get the satellite screens, just can't remember where to hold to get the error screen?

Can't seem to use the right word(s) when searching to find the thread that taught me this in the first place.

Any clues? Thanks

Does this bean bag mount work with my nüvi® 3760T (sale $15.50)

It's not listed as Compatible, but I think the list is just old.

2460LMT Internal memory and 1490LMT Headaches

Does anyone know the size of the built in memory in a 2460LMT or 2360LMT?

I just bought a new 1490LMT and installed the 2012.10 maps. I noticed that many junction views which appear on my 885T did not appear on the 1490LMT.

I called Garmin and we discovered that the size of the JCV file was only 46Mb compared to 367.5MB on the 885T.

What is your best features from the following...

Looking at the list below, what would be your best features that you use on your Garmin GPS? I included numbers in the front to use them in place of typing in the info..

Here is the list

2: Lifetime map updates

GPS 3790 LMT

I would like to buy the garmin gps 3790LMT.But I think that the price is a little steep. My wife keeps telling me to get it since I am working and I earned it. But, I tell her with my luck that as soon as I get it the price will go down. It isn't that I need it. I just want that gps. I have a garmin 855 that I like, but the 3790lmt looks great and I like that one better.
