Garmin talk

I am attempting to find maps for my Garmin Nuvi 885T for the countries of Guyana South America and Brazil.

If anyone knows how I can achieve this, I would appreciate the assistance

Any tips on the nuvi 885T.

I have a Garmin nuvi 760 and have read a lot of the posts on this forum. My nuvi760 only allows me to turn on/off the Proximity alerts... I have no known way to set the distance at which it warns me. Several times a year I make a Trek from TX to NJ and need to know where the Interstate Rest Stops are? I am looking for at least a 2-5 mile warning if Rest Stops before me

The software update from about 2 weeks back, added about a 200 yard offset in bias to my Nuvi 200. I have the latest map updates due to lifetime and usually plug in about monthly to search for other updates. This time it changed something significant and the unit thinks an intersection is about 200 yards farther downrange than it really is. So i have to turn early. Has this happened to others?

I downloaded USA campground locations in Excel format. My garmin uses degrees for lat. & long. The files first two columns have numbers that are probably lat. & long. but are in straight numeric form.

HELP

After downloading to 6.10, I'm having some issues like Attention Tone not working in TTS mode. I want to go back to 6.00 as there were no significant updates (lesson learned).

Does anyone have the previous version lying around on their hard drive? Perry hasn't updated his Nuvi firmware list since 5.40.

Thanks

My problem has been trying to find information on the biggest SD/SDHC card I could use with the 265WT and found this:

"Question: What's the Secure Digital (SD) card recommended for my nüvi or zumo?
Answer:

Is now offering the Nuvi 750 as an installed option in their Tundra Trucks. I think I saw the price of $299.00 for the option.

Created a TourGuide.gpi file using POI Loader. I had the associated bmp and wav files. I loaded the files manually to a Garmin 255W and a 750. Works just fine. Sound and image is displayed. My friend put the same file on his Garmin 760 and he gets the correct sound, but not the image. Any advice???

Three years ago I purchased a c530. RT (retired technician)took my sound files and tweaked them to increase the volume. The results were fabulous. I was able to hear voice commands on my motorcycle at 70 mph with ear plugs in. That said, the c530 has two large speakers in the rear. My Nuvi 750 has just one tiny crappy speaker.

Oh Man! Not my day today for sure. Loading my GPS into it's case for transport and my butter fingers let it slip through. Like watching it in slow mo ...it fell on it's back and craaaaaaaaaaaaaack! Still operational and working except near the crack. Any idea how much to get this fixed or anything would help.

I downloaded the Redlight-Cameras.csv file. Then I downloaded a bmp and an mp3 file, and renamed them to Redlight-Cameras.bmp and Redlight-Cameras.mp3, respectively. I then moved them to the same directory for subsequent download to my nuvi 255W.

I'm beginning to believe that when you load new maps, new Map POI's get loaded too? Is that correct?

I saw different items than I remember from 'before' the map upgrade I did this week (Testing by scrolling maps without getting in the car and actually going anywhere..)

Has anyone ever seen a POI for O' Charley's Restaurants? They are popular in the Mid West, Eastern and South Eastern US.

Yesterday I took delivery of a Nuvi 750. I snagged it on eBay for $105 and that included a bean bag mount. The unit is like new and works perfect. If you are patient, there are some deals out there.

Hey all! One of the features I loved about the Garmin was that it displayed the upcoming street when in normal navigation mode. Ever since I did the update using the Webupdater, that feature seems to have been replaced, instead it now tells me what street I'm on,( which I find almost uselss)!
