Does anyone know how to turn off the "Location-Relevant Offers & Cuoupons" in the nuvi 3790T.

When you stop for a short period of time at a construction zone, red light or are waiting in line for whatever the 'nag' screen pops up.

COULD someone please convert the tim hortons bmp to work on the 765t

thanks

My Garmin Nuvi 1300 all of a sudden lost satellite reception and will not regain it. It is not a windshield problem as it has worked in this truck for over a year.
It keeps saying 'loss of satellite reception" or if i turn it on and off "aquireing satellites" but it never does.

Anyone know if this is a simple fix? Is it worth repairing?

My 265 now seems to have a major problem getting sat signals properly. Even when it finally gets a signal it shows me off-route by about 1/2 Km and the speed readout is very erratic. I've reset everything I can think of but, no change. Anyone seen this before ? Any suggestions?
Thanks in advance.

In the waypoint list on my 1490T, all icons show up with the faint image of a camera.

However the icons on the map do match those selected in Mapsource.

Am I missing something?

Got a price alert this morning for the Ecoroute HD. I had the trip price set at $99. I see now that a number of places have it for under $100 and a few more just about $100. Maybe this is the new price point?

I've reset my trip price to $89.

Greetings,

I won't be able to confirm this until I do my next update in about three months, but maybe someone updating to 2011.20 soon who has multiple lifetime numaps subscriptions for their GPS units can check this out.

Just wondering how many of you have sent in a correction to the street name and noticed that Navteq just added the street name on top of what they already have? I recently changed a street name just to find out that the street name has been put in under five different names before but the problem is that the street name has never been called any of the other names before.

Well it's a simple problem really. I am British born and moved to Zimbabwe, Southern Africa for work purposes. I have a Garmin 205W bought in UK with the UK Maps and it's always been great. So I looked on Garmin.com for a supplier in Zimbabwe before I left thinking great I can get the Zim maps there. Low and behold they had a retailer called Feredays.

Had recently (first time) installed 90 POI's from this site in preparation fo a Holiday in the mountains of NC. Mostly Gem Mines and other tourist things, only speed related were speed traps on I-95 & I-4 and Virginia, never went anywhere near any of those areas.

I purchased a Nuvi 3790T at a very good price, thinking that as the newest Nuvi, it would have the same features as my 765T but perhaps a faster processor and a new screen.

I just picked up an update for my 1490. You will need to reload your favorites!

The new release of City Navigator Europe maps is now available for download via your myGarmin account.

BE REALLY CAREFUL WITH THE 4.50 RELEASE as per the changelog:

Changes made from version 4.40 to 4.50:

* IMPORTANT: If your device is running software versions 4.30 or 4.40 your favorites will be erased with this update. Please see below to learn how to back up your favorites.
* Fixed a problem in software versions 4.30 and 4.40 with Favorites after a software upgrade.

I have tried for the past two days to connect to the Map Update on the Garmin site. My computer reconnizes the GPS, I can get a directory of files etc. However, the Garmin site just keeps on showing that it is looking for my unit....left it going for over an hour and it still never connected! What am I doing wrong??

I believe this topic was discussed some time ago and thought that Garmin had fixed the issue. But, every so often, I'll get a chirping noise with the voice commands. At times, it will continue with the noise until I turn the unit off. I have been using "Karen" as the voice. I have checked the updates for the voices and mine is up to date. Anybody else have this issue?

Hi all,
I recently purchased one of these things based on reviews, they should also link to the problems I think but anyway. I am on my 2nd unit in 2 weeks finding both to have the same issues.

Upon further research it seems other brands and models have their own issues and I feel it is what you're prepared to live with as to which one you end up with.

On to the topic.

See “Trouble With nuvi 3790T”
Well, we’re back to the same @#$% thing with this unit.
Downloaded the wave files (as suggested) & put them on the unit, along with the Red Light Cameras and Speed Cameras and Rest Areas Combined.
Put them in in the Manual mode with the POI loader, however, they don`t show up under ``Proximity Points``.

I just bought a 265WT and updated everything. Had to go to Baton Rouge yesterday and the traffic was back up and slow moving I did not get any traffic reports on gps. It was enabled and power cord was plugged it that had antenna for traffic info. Is this normal are maybe there was on traffic reports in Baton Rouge
