I have a Garmin 2597 LMT which has worked great until about a month ago.

Not Enough Room 2019.20

HI All. I have a 3590 and downloaded 2019.30 and all was OK. I then tried to load the large JCV file and got a message that there was not enough room.

So I deleted the small JCV file and STILL got a msg that there was not enough room.

Oddly, when I tried to reload the small JCV files, I was still getting the same "not enough room" message.

Alert for Custom Points

I am trying to create an alert for a Custom POi file,

I have created the Poi file for Rest Areas- (Rest Area.csv)
I have the icon for the Rest Area ( Rest Area.bmp)

I have created a wave file for "Rest Area Ahead - no services"

Is there anyway to create an alert using this wave file (Rest Area.wav)when approaching the rest area location?

Garmin and Base camp

I’m going through the video tutorials but before I dive
into base camp I have one question. I’m using a garmin gps 64and I want
to use this for my hunting and fishing. Some of the places I go have new
roads and sometimes I travel the same roads to get to new areas. Will I be
able to converge my 12 trips into an the same area into one file which I can view on

Saving a link of 2 destinations in series

Once a month or so we do a shopping trip... to an Aldi, a Sam's Club, and usually a Book Store for wife....
Was wondering.... What I do now is: after arriving at first destination, call up a new one, and then a second one, making it be a "VIA" instead of destination....

Is there a way of Saving a link of 2 destinations in series? Or more?

Fixed an issue that caused wireless map updates to fail.

How can I edit waypoints on a Nuvi 3597

I had a 1490 and I could edit POIs & waypoints on the screen.
I transferred my userdata.gpx and current.gpx file to my 3597.
I can add a waypoint but I can't edit the address or the name. I copied the above files to my computer and edited them then copied back and overwrote the ones on the unit. It still shows the same data even though the files have the correct info.

2019.30 changes

Any noticeable changes on this update?

Put my Garmin in the glove box

Garmin Nuvi Memory

I have the following Garmins that I have added memory to:

Garmin Nuvi 350

Garmin Nuvi 360

Garmin Nuvi 500

When I update maps, however, it onlu gives me the option of updating a portion and not the entire United States. I memory that I h ave added to each one should be more than enough to download the entire country. What do I need to do to use the additional memory?

Dezl users? Dezl files went away after 2019.30 update

Any other Dezl users? After I updated to 2019.30 the trucking unique info was not on my unit anymore. Any others have this problem or is my situation unique?

Dead?

I installed the new map in unit and downloaded jcv file and unzipped it and was ready to install it. 1450 was plugged in computer to charge up before the jcv install. I totally forgot about it and computer went to sleep. When I did get back it was dead. Thought to wake up and let it charge up some. Nothing. Unplugged usb and tried again. Nothing.
