Garmin talk

Hi everyone I have a nuvi 200w and I added a 2.0 gig sd card. I would like to put all the 2009 maps on it can that be done and how?

Thank you.

Is there a way to erase base maps on the 760? I updated to the 2009 maps but then I used Bobcat to make a route and allowed it to install maps that correspond with the route...didn't need to and now it take longer to boot up. I want to erase the maps and just reinstall the 2009 maps unless there is a separate file I can delete that has that basemap I installed from Bobcat.

Hi all,
I just received my Garmin C550. When plugging it to my computer in the USB port, a picture of a computer showed up on the C550 screen and I was able to see the C550 as a drive on my PC.

Just got back from a weekend in Cincinnati. The Chili Restaurants POI file has several errors. The first two places I went to did not exist. The next two had been torn down, never to be replaced. Finally found one, forty miles from where I started, so I finally got my chili.

I am getting ready to go on a cruise that will be in several countries. I would love to use my nuvi 350 when buying stuff to have a general idea of how much money I am really spending. I am having problems updating my nuvi. Can anyone help me?

I notice that I can charge my Nuvi from my 120V charger and the car charger that came with my Motorola Razr. I need a power supply that I can use to run my Garmin on the motorcycle and being the opportunist that I am, there are a lot more Razr chargers around than there are Garmins. Any reason I can't cut one of these up to wire into my bike to power my Nuvi?

TIA,
Air

Can anyone direct me to humorous alert sounds and warnings. I know I could probably make my own but I'm not that funny.
Thanks

Am I capable of running MP3 files on my Garmin StreetPilot c530? I tried one and it didn't seem to work.
I am having trouble getting the alert to sound for the rest areas combined file.

Okay, if this is covered somewhere already, I apologize, but I can't find it and I have searched.

I've had my nuvi 760 for about a month now and really am enjoying it. I just have two questions that hopefully someone can answer.

I would like to know eveyones view on this!

With gas Prices the way they are would like to know if there is REALLY that much difference.

Hi,
I hope somebody can help me with this...I live in Alberta, Canada and have a Garmin Nuvi 250 which I just purchased.
I was in Lethbridge, Alberta and wanted to go to Costco, so I searched for it under Points of Interest, spell name, and the nearest one preloaded was in the USA.
I came home, used POI Loader, found a file for all the Costco's in the USA and Canada, and loaded it.

Let say I have 10 custom pois... Can 5 of those be on the units internal memory and the other 5 on the sd card... Would that work?

Thanks

I am using Garmin Mobile XT on my Palm Treo 700w and want to incorporate a voice file with some POI files. The POI files have been created with the .mp3 files (both named the same, except for the extension) in the same directory, but the .mp3 files do not play. Any advice and specific examples would certainly be appreciated.

Someone please verify what I already suspect. My friend just bought a 750 and has Mapsource that he got with his 2610. So he is trying to use Mapsource to create and upload a route to the 750. I am not familiar with his 750 but am quite familiar with Mapsource because I have a 2610 and a 2820.

I live in Vancouver B.C. Canada..Before I go out and buy the new 2009 map update...I would like to find out if there is any update in my area? Thanks!

I can get all the my custonmpoints of interest on my DS card, byt the alerts and icons are not showing up. Any reason why? Advice/help?

Here's my specific question which may lead to a more general discussion. Driving from downtown Los Angeles towards Irvine going southeast on I-5. Nuvi 660 wants to take me off I-5 to I-605 South and onto CA91 East and back on to I-5.

So, I just bought my new 780 tonight. My problem is that I have loaded poi files into it, but when I go to look at them on the computer to see where they have went I can not find them. The points show up on the map,but they are not in Garmin/poi like my 660 was. So where are they stored? I tried loading another set of points and it seemed to get rid of my first set. Anyone else had this problem?

How do I modify the files in my Rest Stop Folder so they function as Tour Guides? If this is possible, could someone provide an illustration> Do I have to change every entry in the folder (say, for Pennsylvania) or do I just change the name of the folder that I will save to my Nuvi 260W?

Thanks.
