Garmin talk

In the school alerts for north mississippi schools.The two for highway baptist are incorrect.The school moved years back and the property is vacant.just wanted to let everybody know.Thanks

I don't know why but it's often hit or miss with addresses such as 12345 Route 123, Anytown, USA. The nuvi couldn't come up with a valid street, nothing.

Droid X? Simply googled the name of the business I was looking for, clicked a few times and the navigation was set.

I have used S&T 2006 for years and like the way it works.
But now I have a nuvi 1450 and am thinking about getting S&T 2010. How well does it compare with MapSource? Anyone use Streets & Trips 2010 with their Nuvi? Is it worth $28.00 or is it a waste of time, money and HD space?

I was just reading an article about using a Garmin to aim a TV satellite dish. Has anyone done this and did it work?

I recently purchase a car that has a Pioneer AVCI X920BT navigation system. It appears that the mapping system is Tele Atlas. Does anyone know if you can get the redlight camera IPO for this unit?

I have always had Gramin units that the redlight IPO could be easily updated.

Hi all,

I just purchased a refurbished Nuvi 255W because I sent my 260W back after receiving a recall notice about a battery problem. I needed a Nuvi for a trip that I am taking before the 260 is sent back to me.

Here's my question: Will I be able to use the lifetime map update that I purchased for my 260 to update maps on the refurbished 255W?

Colleagues,

I've searched the forum for the answer to no avail.

I have a new 3760T with the CN North America 2011.20 loaded.

Is there a way I can install this map onto either Mapsource or Basecamp?

I have the unlock code, but neither program is recognizing them.

Thoughts?

any one know about the phantom alert for gps,,,if you know pls tell me how to free downlaod for my c320 ??

thankx

If this is the wrong place to post. please let me know. I read that I should post my serial information on the web if the GPS is stolen.

If your unit does not have Junction View or Lane Assist goto http://www.navteq.com/ and enter your route. The lane assist junction views should show on the left as they
would on your unit.

I plugged my Nuvin into my recently built XP workstation, and I get "USB Device not recognized. One of the USB devices...blah-blah-blah...." No more drive access to the unit, no more POI loading, no more updates.... What the heck???

Anyone?

Whacked gstart, POIloader, Mapsource, USB drivers and reinstalled all that stuff to no avail.

hi guys,

i've been using Redlight cameras POIs which are very good and I like to keep that up to date. more and more of areas surrounding me introduces red light cameras, the most annoying thing in the world ...

anyways, I have a question about Speed cameras. Since I started using this POI too I noticed it gives nothing but headache.

In monitoring and searches of this forum I see a fair number of people using the nüvi 1450 and most seem fairly happy with it. However, even the recent Amazon reviews are littered with negative comments about this unit's reliability, which gives me concern.

Is there a way to make a TourGuide POI file that doesn't have TourGuide in the category and alert message once it is compiled to the nuvi?

For the very first time the traffic receiver on my 1490T paid off. Previously, every time I've gotten a "severe traffic" message, it's been too late and I'm already past the exit on the freeway that would have been a good escape. On I80 westbound last night, Jill yelled the alert just as I was approaching an interchange, and switched to the traffic map.

Great Deal On Garmin, Not A Refurb

I had sort of forgot about this, but it looks like as a registered Garminfone user I am eligible for free Lifetime Map Updates. Does Garmin send an e-mail when the updates are available or is it up to me to find out when they are available?

Just returned from a 2200 mile trip to Western Nebraska and S Dakota. Traveled over many miles of "ranch roads" and roads located on federal grasslands with no problems. The garmin identified most of the county roads by name and it showed us the grassland roads but no numbers. Garmin helped a lot.

Does anyone know the location of a stomping Godzilla vehicle icon? Preferably fire breathing.
