Garmin talk

With the latest map set I get weird recalculations. I'll be driving along on a section where I'm supposed to drive 56 miles (just an example) on such and such highway. Right in the middle of the section the unit will say "recalculating" and do it one or two times in a row and then settle down back to the same route. I've never had this happen with other map sets.

Where do I install this file at I can do the Icons and add the .wav but it don't play the .wav Please help :>)

Alright, so my garmin nuvi 765t has the latest map update available, and I've been noticing that when I put my gps in simulation mode, the lane assist will pop up in places that I haven't seen it before.

Hi everybody!!! my Name is Bilson from Brockton, MA. i'm new to the site and i need some help loading sounds and icond to the POI that i have already downloaded on into my Garmin nuvi 680. i can see the POI files in my GPS but im trying to add sound and icons to it and i can't do it.

I have a garmin nuvi 200W which I purchased late summer of 2008. I registered my garmin not long after, not knowing about the free update.Is there any way to get a free update even though may 60 days have come and gone or is the only way the buy an update?

Thanks

I'm in Norman OK. To my knowledge there is no red light cameras or speed cameras in Norman.

On some main streets I get a pop up Alert saying 7 mph speed alert. If I am going slow the back ground is black as I speed up to the posted speed the back ground turns red and I get a beeping sound.

For some reason every now and then the voice on my 885 goes back to Jill instead of staying with Jack. Is there a way to make Jack the default?

We're leaving central IL tomorrow for Pike's Peak, Rocky Mt. National Park, the Custer Battlefield, Mt. Rushmore, etc. and we're relying on our 255W to get us there and back. I've had it for over a year and it's never failed so far.

What can I sell a StreetPilot c550 for? Thanks in advance.

Now that 2011.10 is behind us, it's already mid June...Is 2011.20 just around the corner?

Has anyone having problems downloading BaseCamp 3.05? When I click download, nothing happens or it's not downloading anything.

Hi All,

I am travelling to Malaysia soon and I want to purchase the City Navigator Singapore/Malaysia Maps (https://buy.garmin.com/shop/shop.do?pID=9844&pvID=30149).

As I don't have much time left, I will buy the downloadable version.

So I have two questions:

1- Do you know where can I get a Discount Code to use on the Checkout page of the Garmin website?

Two days in a row at the exact same location my Garmin 855 does a reboot. It is at the intersection of I5 and I 705 going southbound in downtown Tacoma, WA. This is the location that you really need turns and lane information. The reboot takes about 20 seconds.
What would cause the receiver to reboot at this exact location?
Other than this the 855 has been excellent.

Hello, we have finally got the Garmin Nuvi 465t truck GPS to do OK for trucking with a lot of help from Map Source and the big RandMcnally Truck Map. The big issue is routing and stop errors.

I played with Mapsource creating a route. After loading it in to my gps I can't find it any more. Does anybody know where I can find it?

Thanks.

The wife was driving down the road and the 765T and it's suction cup cradle disengaged from the windshield and by the time it made its way to the floor, the screen was broken. Anybody know if Garmin will replace it for a reasonable price?

My old Nuvi 200 had more accurate maps for street addresses than what my new unit with 2010 maps does.

My old 2009 maps and nuvi show my house in the correct location buy my new nuvi and 2010.10 maps show if about a quarter mile further down than what is correct.

Understand this release likely to come out late July early Aug. I have until approx Aug 12th per my 60 days.

How much typically gets updated on a quarterly new release. Understand poi likely get updated but how much map info gets updated a lot or just a little typically ? ? ?

I've recently noticed that after having downloaded the most recent updates for the voice files I use and then use WebUpdater a second time, it will still show the same updates for download.

With the Garminfone now available in the US and the Dell Streak available in the UK and coming to the US, I was wondering if Garmin made a 5" Garminfone--a Garminfone slate or tablet, would you buy one?
