Custom POI Not At correct location

I have created a csv file in notepad.
-123.45678, 12.34567, My_POI
I used the poi downloader from Garmin and the result is a location 49 miles SE of where it should be.

I have removed the file; deleted the excel file; recreated the file and tried again 3 times with the same result. I even opened up the excel file to verify that I did not mis-type.

885 Update

I have the 885T, before I did a update some months ago I was able to see at the top of the unit where the Green Bar is Turn Red with a warning for a traffic cam or tell me when I;m coming up to a POI. Now all I get is a small black box on the screen and if I don't have my glasses on I can't see it. Is there anyway I can change it back.

Powerlet cables?

Rest MSN Direct Subscription settings on Nuvi 780

Hello. I have a Nuvi 780 and was wondering if anyone knew how to reset the MSN Direct Subscription back to the default screen where you have to enter your account number?

A rep at Best Buy reset my device a while ago and I didn't have a chance to ask him now. He was able to reset the device. Unfortunately, I need to do it again because I have a new subscription code.

How to turn off camera icon display in Favorites

Hi everyone,

Does anyone know how to turn off the camera icon display on the Favorites list for the Nuvi 1350T? I don't have any images associated to any of the favorites therefore I would like to turn off that icon completely.

Thanks

1390T brings back old Favorites ????

Ok, I searched and didn't find anything on this. My Garmin 1390T likes to bring back favorites I deleted.

I am wondering where these are stored in which folder so I can PERMINENTLY DELETE THEM twisted ....

How to revert back to 4.8? 4.9 is a pain in the ass and it been months

I have 755t and ever since I updated it to 4.9, it is nothing but problem. The routing is strange, the freezing up is constant. Anyone know which file I should download from this site.

Oh I submitted the problem report to Garmin months ago, they didn't even dignified me with a stock response.

Favorites on the nuvi 260

Does anyone know if there is a limit to how many favorites you can have on the device? Is it dictated by the amount of memory?

MSN Traffic

Anybody notice that since MSN said they are stopping traffic in 2012 that the traffic that they do put out there is WAY OFF ?

Junction view on nuvi1390T

How can we download more or should I say any of the junction views on the gps? I was driving a route and it appeared, so cool. It's a shame its not at every junction point.

Favorites Photos

When you download favorites to the unit (1390T) with Mapsource, it appears that all photo associations are lost. Is there any way to retain them. I don't see anything in Mapsource to associate a jpg file to the favorite.

Phone Compatability

We have just purchased a Nuvi 1490T and think that it is great. Now we want to get a new phone but the compatability list as stated in other posts is not kept up to date and what's more it only seems to have US models on the list.

V4.90 feature (Nuvi 660)

In addition to the Traffic Fix...

Wife & I noticed that for the first time, we're seeing train tracks in the maps. We've had V4.70, V4.80 and V4.90 with the latest maps, but it's only in V4.90 where we're seeing train tracks...

nuvi 200 map update

I understand that the internal memory of the 200 will not be enough for the new maps and some region(s) will have to go on an SD card. Will the map download process give me a choice of which region I want in internal memory and which I want on the card? How automatic is this? Is map access speed from the card comparable to that from internal memory?

Campgrounds & RV Park

Is there a way that i can tell if i downloaded Campground & RV Park,I saved it in my pictures i had a folder by itself but it wasn't there when i downloaded it,but i did iy anyway,It said it downloaded 5000 something.I'am i suppose to create a POI FILE FIRST.I have a garmin 765T,Thanks

Red Light Camera Beta

I downloaded the red light camera beta file. It is the "frosting on the cake" of the standard POI and I hope it quickly becomes the norm. The intersection name rather than the standard alert greatly improves the function.

Garmin nuvi 7x0 series vs. 7x5 series...

I was comparing my 780 (same detail, etc. as 760) alongside my new 765T I got from Costco last week, and definitely noticed a slight loss of detail at comparable settings. The comparison maps shown in this thread http://www.gpspassion.com/forumsen/topic.asp?TOPIC_ID=121046... are representative of what I saw, but there are other things:
