Garmin talk

I've downloaded several POI files, and apparently successfully uploaded them to my GPSMap69CX, running Ibycus 2.1 Canada map, but they don't show up, either on the list of POIs or on the maps. Any suggestions as to what I'm doing wrong?

Hi everyone. I just replaced my Nuvi 660 with a Nuvi 765T and I'm trying to figure out how to transfer my favorites? I've got the POI loader and I've been able to upload my red light cameras without any problems. However, I used Garmin Road Trip and downloaded all the favorites from my old Nuvi and exported it as a GPX file but it would not show up in the favorites folder.

Can someone point me towards the discussion for making .csv file "comments" visible on the GPSr GO page? Also line breaks to go along with this.
I have some files that work and some that do not and I am having trouble seeing why.........

I'm soon to receive a Nuvi 765T as a gift, replacing my Nuvi 350.

I was wondering if I also need to upgrade my 350's Portable Friction Mount or are the fitting the same? I also would like to know if my 350's language guide and Fodor travel guide (on SD memory cards) would work in the 765T? Any help would be appriciated.

Thanks, John

I just upgraded my c580 to 6.70 from WebUpdater.

http://www8.garmin.com/support/download_details.jsp?id=1869

Changes made from version 6.60 to 6.70:

* Added NAVTEQ traffic support.
* Fixed issue of multiple 'Other' categories in POI search.

Have a Nuvi660 for quite sometime now with lifetime traffic. Codes in nuvi.

Live in Delaware, but use traffic for Philly, Balt and NYC areas.

Last trip to NY had no traffic coverage on Friday night up, but coverage was active on trip home on Sunday. Any ideas????

Can you safely remove non-English voice files from a 765t?

What would be a good GPS unit for a motorcycle?

Attempted to install EPE V22. This is what I get:

Component 'RICHTX32.ocx' or one of its dependencies not correctly registered: a file is missing or invalid.

Maybe this can't be used on Vista Home Premium 64 bit?

I have created a Waypoint with MapSource and have converted it to an .GPI file with Garmin's POILoader (v. 2.5.4). The image and the "TourGuide" audio file I linked to the the MapSource file were converted to the .GPI file wihout any problems. The issue I have is that the Waypoint 'comments' are being duplicated twice on my unit.

Hello,
My question is how to set the tour guide option. For example, I would like to set the tour guide option for a Shell gas station. IF the POI name is "Shell" than do I rename it as "TourGuide Shell" or "Tour Guide Shell" ? I'm not sure if Tour Guide is supposed to be one word or two?

I d/l and installed POI Loader for my nuvi 750 and successfully installed places to visit.csv.

Sure enough it showed up in the Garmin POI folder. Since I live about 1/2 an hour from San Jose, CA I installed
sweet_things_near_San Jose_V.csv.

Here is a custom Honda Startup theme for your Nuvi widescreen.

My garmin nuvi 260 doesn't seem to be reading the external card. It was working about a month ago and I've not used the unit much since. When I plug my garmin into my laptop, I can see the Garmin icon and the files associated with that, but micro sd card doesn't show up as a separate drive. I switched out cards thinking that perhaps the card was bad. Am I missing something?

I am trying to send a route from Mapquest to my Nuvi, 765T. keeps telling me the communicator plugin is not detected, go to the test page, and it is detected. I am using IE 8, and Firefox, both get same message. Has anybody had this problem, and found a fix? I have the latest version of communicator 283

I haven't really used my Nuvi 650 much since I got it. That will change soon when we head south for the winter.

In preparation, I've been loading various custom POI's into my unit. After loading them in, I decided to check and see if they installed correctly.

i am willing to post coord.'s to my recent elk hunt if anyone would be willing to post the HOT spots ?! as noted i got a 6x7 bull this past 1st season in Co. there was no one around us, and there were plenty of Elk, tons of them to be honest!!

I just replaced my 350 with a 265WT as the subject line states. So far I like all the new features. I have not had much success with the Bluetooth sound quality and I am wondering if that is more a function of my phone (Blackberry Storm) or the GPS unit. Any suggestions?

I'm a bit confused. I purchased a Garmin nuvi 705 but on the bottom of the GPS it clearly says its a nuvi 765. Not a big problem, just something that confuses me.
Second question: When I try to load POI's I'm getting an error message that it can't find a .SOX file?????
Third question: It appears that it can't handle a wav. file, mp3's seem to be ok.
