Changing coordinates of POI or Favorites Location

Hi,

I have a Garmin Nuvi 200. I have had a few occasions where I have a location in either a Favorite or POI file that is slightly off. I can push the car to save the coordinates. Is there anyway to either export those coordinates so I can update the POI/Favorite or directly update.

Thanks

Free MSN Direct feature???

I know that Free MSN is an oxymoron but, I swear, I got SOMETHING for free from the ether-waves! I have a nuvi 750 with an MSN Direct receiver thingy that I bought on eBay. When I received the nuvi, I checked the MSN Direct website to see if there was any time left on the MSN subscription but the site said that the subscription had expired.

3.0 update on garmin

My Friend updated my Garmin 765T on garmin.com instead of web updater and now it no longer lets me connect to we updater it says :
Some devices were found; however, none have the necessary capabilities. Please make sure your device is connected to the computer and turned on, then try again. You may also need to set the interface option on the GPS to 'Garmin' or Host.

Multiple Folders

Can a Garman Nuvi 200GPS support other folders in internal and/or external (SD card) memory and show other folders in or under the "Extra" icon on my GPS? I only have a "Custom POI" folder in/under my "Extra" icon. I want to have multiple "Custom POI" folders each with different names.

FM Transmitter question/usage hints

I am considering upgrading to a Nuvi with FM transmitter capability. Currently I make use of an FM transmitter for my Sirius radio, and one for my iPod both of which I use extensively in my "commute" between Phoenix and Las Vegas.

Buying from Ebay

Is it a good idea to buy Nuvi 765T from ebay? I will appreciate your feedback.

For those interested, most of the local Best Buy stores here in the SoCal area are now listing the nuvi 885T as being in stock for in-store pickup.

Hopefully, it won't be discontinued in a few months like it's predecessor. rolleyes

Lifetime traffic deals

Since people are finding lifetime deals on the lifetime maps, which is so cool, has anyone seen a better price on the lifetime traffic?

Garmin 2009 Map Update on Ebay

The Seller posted the item as NEW saying that they buy surplus. They did not think the item was used.

Seller Post:
"Item is NEW and in the original open package. In the event that this product registration key has been used by the store for any reason..there is an 800 number on the package that can be called. Garmin has stated that they will reissue the license key for the item."

Addresses in POI Files

I have recently downloaded several POI files from this site that had only the coordinates in them. No addresses, location names, etc. This makes use of the files very difficult. Addresses have to have been available or the author of the file could not have found the coordinates. Why they didn't get put in the files is a puzzle to me.

Nuvi 760 Hung up

One of the 760s we have in our trucks was hung up with a blue screen that said "updating Blue Tooth firmware - 0%". I disconnected the power and rebotted it and it came up okay. Is this something the Blue Tooth compatible units do (ie - reaching out for firmware updates via satellite)?

Garmin discourages repeat customers

How many of you own a Garmin GPS and have also purchased additional maps?

I bought the Nuvi 360 when it was first released along with City Navigator Europe and Australia maps. At the time Garmin allowed one additional install. I used this additional install on my replacement Nuvi 660.

Proximity Points

I am pretty new to POIs. if i install POIs using the POI loader in express install mode, will the sound files play when i am near a POI? or do i need to manualy set them to play using the manual mode?
I did set Proximity point alerts to ON on my GPS unit.

I have The Nuvi 660.

Thanks

Garmin Maps

Is there any Garmin maps for truckers. Too many times my Garmine wants to send me down a back country road that I should not be on.

another newbie seeking assistance (Lots of STUPID questions)

Introduce myself: Purchased Garmin Streetpilot 2730 (w/XM) for use on a motorcycle. Planning 4000 mile trip over a week in May. Garmin does some things well, some things I'm disappointed in. Any help with any of these questions would be greatly appreciated:
