Garmin talk

I wanted to know if anyone else has experienced this, or am I just hallucinating it.

After updating to the November 2009 maps on my Nuvi 760, it seems that the screen does not keep up with where I am. The lag between me hitting a landmark in reality and on screen appears to have increased.

Am I dreaming it? Is this an isolated incident, or are there others having the same issue.

New to using POI files, but I loaded the GOOD SAM site file to my computer and then loaded my SD card. When I look at the POI file in Extra I see the good sam file, when I call it up it comes up but instead of APPROX. 1500 SITES I CAN ONLY SCROLL MAYBE 30-40sites instead of the 1500????

EDITED TO SHOW CORRECT MODEL #....

Friend at work brought in his new Garmin 1490T nuvi, and I walked him through loading POI's...

I was going to show him where the POI's could be found, but WOW the Nuvi 1490T and my Nuvi 660 do not share any GUI structure!!! And of course he didn't bring his manual....

I guess I'm just not meant to have a functioning 765. Just got my forth unit after 5 returns (one problem, the battery, they fixed without replacing), spent most of the night setting it up & was just now pairing with my iPhone. It pairs just fine, will ring through the unit on an incoming call & it'll dial out but I get no audio through the gps at all.

Hi All,
New to this forum and Garmin. Had a Magellan 4250 before and very recently updated to Garmin 765T. Have been trying to get drive by POIs show up in the navigation map and have no clue.
Anyone know if this can be done?
Thanks!

Perhaps if Tiger had been using his GPS to find his way home after a Golf game he wouldn't be in the trouble he is in now. Too bad he followed something else that Garmin doesn't make.

can anyone help?
all of a sudden my nuvii's bluetooth wont accept my phone

Does anyone know how the enforcement cameras work? Do they operate with laser or radar which can be detected by a radar detector?

Sometime today, my month-old 855 stopped responding to screen touch. I've looked around (with voice commands) but been unable to find a setting to undo this. I've tried turning it off for several minutes.

Can anyone advise

1. What I might have done to cause this? (so I can avoid in future)

2. How to get it back?

I was trying out the cantonese (chinese) language on the Garmin Nuvi 265WT and was very disappointed. No street names, exit numbers, etc. was spoken. Is there any way to correct this or is this the best it can do? It would be great to have the foreign language work the same as english.

November 13, 2009, PIONEER announced that it has filed a complaint against Garmin International, Inc. and its associated company in the United States alleging Garmin’s infringement of Pioneer’s patents related to navigation technology.

I was reading that in California you are not allowed to adhere a GPS device to your windshield or anywhere that it obstructs the drivers vision. So where am I allowed to place it??

I searched but coudn't find,,looking for a Meijer store logo and sound,and also a Peb boys sound.

is there any?? thanks

I have searched the forums and different links with conflicting answers. So, to the specific question.

Is it possible to continuously show all custom POIs on the nuvi 855 in a similar manner to the built-in POIs?

Does anyone know how to input coordinates into a Garmin Nuvii 1490T

Just got my new Garmin 255WT (Best Buy Black Friday deal). I haven't powered it up yet...I read that for the first 60 days I can get one free map update?

Does anyone know if there is a certain class level needed for SDHC cards in a 765T? I had an unrated SDHC card that went bad. Should it have been a class 2, class 4 or class 6 or does it not matter as long as it is SDHC? I need to get another one and there is a price between the different classes.

Nice price on a one time update at Best Buy.
99cent shipping and have it before Christmas too.

Or Store Pickup: Available at most stores.

I've owned a 200W as well as my current 855 and I've noticed that they both seem to save a lot of searches into the Favorites section. I work as a hotshot courier so I search for around 40 plus locations a day and I very rarely save any of them as favorites but I notice at the end of each day that there are at least 10 new favorites in my file.

Which garmen units have truck routes?
