Need help installing a backup camera to a StreetPilot 7200 in my Volvo wagon

I have the Garmin 360 and tried loading custom POI's onto a SD card. When I put the sd card into the 360 it does not show up. When I load the same POI's straight into the 360 I can see " custom POI" under .
Before I go crazy I want to know if the 360 can use POI's from an SD card.

Thanks
Jim

Ok,

Following this story: http://www.poi-factory.com/node/10198
Garmin is facing a lawsuit from another company, claiming trademark violations for use of the word Nuvifone. That company, Nuvio Corp., also wants the name NUVI dropped from any device made by Garmin. That story is from http://www.engadget.com/2008/02/27/garmins-nuvifone-comes-un...

Has anyone tried using any of those solar powered chargers for a nuvi? Like solio.com, power monkey or any others?

Hey all, I just posted some new POI files with all the public BioDiesel sights in the USA. I posted a full USA list and regional lists. Hopefully these are helpful. I am still looking to create a list of regular diesel stations as well. Thanks, kdehaan...

I've noticed that the phone numbers for custom POI's are often cut off on their information page. I'm concerned mostly with RV Parks, but it probably happens with others too. Addresses come first and are usually complete. I have the nuvi 200. Would the widescreen show complete phone numbers?

Hello, I am new to the Garmin GPS world and am having problems with certain POIs not notifying me with the Proximity Alerts. They all seem to load correctly, some do notify me and others do not. Has anybody else experienced this or is there something I am doing wrong? Also, I am not getting any icons or sounds showing up with my POIs, is this due to the lack of capability on a nuvi 260w?

I wish my Nuvi had the capabability to set a switch on how many times an alarm would go off.

Say I had a rest stop on an interstate.. from the rest stop file...

Then I could set up say 2,000 feet for the alram to go off and then set this other switch for it to go off only one time. I could set the switch to any number I guess... but I would like to be able to set it to 1.

I want to get the distancxe and time from one location to another location, but it always starts me a my home site. how do i do lthis?a

Im tying to find out what frequinces msndirect is using and if they are horizontal or verticaly polirized does any one know?

i know this question has been asked before can any one help me.

i have loaded low bridges on my garmin with the poi loader

when i try and load some thing else it over writes the low bridges any ideas thanks. driving me mad.

How does one un-install a MapSource product other then the built-in one from a Nuvi 7xx?

Just want to let everyone know software version 4.30 just came out now. Didn't mention anything about fixing the problem of alert while playing mp3. Will try it out tomorrow anyway and report back.

Changes made from version 4.20 to 4.30:

Added support for MSN Canada
Addressed an issue of missing MSN Direct movie times

Hi I am new to GPS and have a Garmin Nuvi 760 and wish to download some files on a sd card. I was able to down load 1 example tim horton and it worked okey. When I went to down load a second file the first file was erased on the sd card. How can i put several files on the sd card?
thank you
david

I have seen many people have problems with the internal batteries on Garmin units after they fully discharge. Does anyone know if the units will work at all if the battery doesn't hold a charge anymore? Anyone have experience with this out there?

is there a way when you start up the c330 to keep the splash screen on instead of going through its normal routine? im only asking this for when im not using it during the day.i only use it 3-4 hours a day at work.i think it would be better than turning it on and off all the time.

Did I not read on some posting here that if you have the Lat. & logitude you can set up a custom POI with ease?

If so, how is this accomplished please
