Garmin talk

Does anyone has a Male Voice for the Nuvi 200. Can you share the file. Thanks.

Does any one knows how to create and upload tour guide in GARMIN 350?

When I upgrade my Nüvi 250W from 2.80 to 2.90 the info in the bottom-left corner of the map screen change. It now show speed, before it was showing time of arrival. The Documentation ( yeah, the 5 pages manual ) reffers to it as Speed or Time of Arrival.

Can and how can I change from one to the other ??

Yes, I'm new at this. How do you apply the alarm sounds to your nuvi 200. How do they work? How did you set up the alarm in your GPS, how will you set it up to sound? Sorry about the questions, just hope someone could help me. Thanks

Just wanted to know if anyone has voices to ad to the Nuvi 200? I will appreciate any help. Thanks.

I would like to be able to see POI's while driving in the map mode on my c340, I don't think its possible, just wondering if anybody knows for sure?

I can get to it and look at it, and understand the obvious. But what I don't understand is what the little icons (sun?, moon?, red dot?) are telling me. They are there, so they must be imparting some useful information if one know how to properly interpret what one is viewing.

I am a new user. Have had my c40 three day now. I have downloaded poi loader and have have loaded a few poi files from here. My question is , will the c340 accept mp3 files and if so if I change a csv file to a mp3 file will I get a audio alert when near poi?

Has anyone gone to Garmin Garage and downloaded some of the vehicles there? I tried this, following their directions..and it appeared to download, but....

I cannot find them on my Nuvi 360? Does anyone have a "clearer" explanation of how to download some of the snazzy vehicles?

Hello! I've just downloaded Redlight-Cameras.csv into my new Nuvi 660 using POI Loader. Original file when opened in Excel has 2665 rows, but Nuvi under Custom POI shows only 52. Is this kind of distance limit or what?
Same happenes when I load other custom POIs. For example, SanDiegoPOI.csv with 142 rows shows same 52 only. Any advise/explanation would be greatly appreciated.

Thank you!

I've searched a few times with various strings but had no success.

Can I create a "track log" on my nuvi 350 while I am in an airplane to see the route we took across the country? I want to be able to upload it to Google Earth/MapSource and see our actual route?

Possible with a nuvi 350? I know I can with an eTrex Vista (which I have), but I'd rather use my nuvi.

I'm intending to get a GPSr for a friend who lives in Canada (BC) but crosses into the US frequently, so she'd need good coverage of both US and Canada. Can anyone fill me in on what models from experience have good map coverage of both areas, or if maybe a different manufacturer than Garmin might be preferable for this? Thanks!

Hello there. I'm a new Garmin user and a recovering Tomtom Nav 5 user. I received my new Nuvi 200 yesterday and am already impressed, but it will take some time to get used to it. The only thing I liked better about the Tomtom was the fact that it showed more info on the nav screen.

Ok I just got a garmin 660 and I have been trying (very unsuccessfuly I might add) to load poi's into it.

It happened twice today. As I am driving on the freeway, I get a voice alert saying: "Very close to HAD", or something to that effect.
The first instance, there was an off-ramp and the traffic was backed up. Second time it happened when I took my exit and the traffic was normal (however it is under construction).

When I first got my Nuvi 350 and was playing with all the options, I managed to get a blue vehicle pointer that was different than the other pointers that were in the Vehicle folder. I liked it better than the others, but could never get it back after I had played around with the other cool vehicles. It's a blue pointer, but longer and "pointier" than the standard one.

My Nuvi 200 finally arrived today. I downloaded the latest firmware, loaded it with my waypoints (now Favorites)from Mapsource, and took it for a spin. I was very impressed with how quickly it acquired satellites, as compared to my handheld Etrex Venture CX.

Am i correct that i should get an alert when i get near a POI i have installed ? I have not been out that far with the unit yet, just wondering am i reading things correct...Brent

Nuvi 660

I have a NUVI 200 and loaded some custom poi files on it for red light camera and for rest areas. I noticed I get the ding ding alert on it but the green bar never changes is this normal on the 200 - my NUVI 660 and NUVI 350 both change when I approach a red light camera they change to red.
