Loaded Harley Dealers POI - can't find them on GPS
I have a new Zumo 550 (Not the one that Harley sells). I downloaded a POI from the POI Factory and following the instructions (I thought) uploaded the POI to my Garmin. Everything finished without errors. I turned the Zumo off and then back on and I can't find where the Dealers are. I suppose that I did something wrong.

New Vehicle - Golf Cart
So there is a new vehicle posted on Garmin's website. It is a nice looking vehicle of a Golf Cart called putter. I just downloaded it and added it to my 350. When you go into the change vehicles page on the nuvi, no vehicles are present. I went and removed, the vehicles worked, put it back on and they do not work. I only have a couple icons in there so it was not an issue of overloading.

Have GPS will travel but car broke down & cellphone won't work
There are places in this world where cellphone coverage isn't available. Suppose you're in one of these uncovered areas and your car broke down and all you have is your Garmin GPS unit. You know your co-ordinates, but how do you tell the civilized world where you are?

Does anyone know how to upload a new picture to a GPS instead of the pre-loaded ones they come with?
Greetings,
I am a new grandpa and would like to replace some/all of the pictures in my Nuvi 250W with pictures of my grandson. Can this be done?
I am a new Garmin owner so I just may not know the procedure or, if you've already cracked that nut, where to look.
Thanks for any help you can give me.

a bit disappointed with current Nuvi security
I was messing around with a friend's Nuvi 205, and set a random PIN number on it.
When I purposely tried to enter the wrong PIN numbers, it would just beep, but allowed me to quickly erase and enter a new # to try.

scandisk
anybody ever run a defrag or scandisk on their garmin? I can see it is easy to do but haven't do so yet. I can't imagine it would hurt anything. Thoughts?

Garmin quality and suggestions on improvement
I am a big fan of Garmin, and refer all my friends and family to buy Garmin whenever possible. I even gift out Garmin to my folks when they said they wanted a GPS.
But now I'm wishing Garmin would do somethings better.
My Garmin C320 has been rock solid, but I can't say the same of the newer Nuvi units.

Loading and accessing photos onto a Garmin 200W
I purchased a 2 Gig SD card for my 200W. After loading customs POI's to my card, I find I have plenty of room to load photos. I haven't found exactly where to load the photos. Do I create a folder or load it onto the main directory of the card? Second question: How many actually use your Nuvi to carry and display photos?
Thanks,
Dodger34.

Disk space on C330
I updated formware on my older C330 today and after that I removed my custom POIs from it. Now when I try to transfer POIs, I am getting message "There is not enough space on the unit, please decrease the nuber of files to be transferred." I tried by reducing the nuber but no luck.
Is there a way to access C330's hard disk?
I will appreciate your help.




"Pairing" the Nuvi 760 with the Blueant Interphone headset?
I want to pair my Nuvi 760 GPS unit with my Blueant Interphone headset but I'm lacking the directions I need. Pairing with a cell phone is not the issue.
Can anyone give me advice/information/instructions on how to do this? Many thanks.
