Having problems in getting the Starbuck POI to register alerts during regular travel. I downloaded Subway, Les Schwab and it works fine. Sox does its' thing. So, not sure what the issue is. Suggestions??

The Magellan I retired had an audible alert for over the speed limit. Is there a way to have either a voice or a beep-beep when you go over the speed limit? In the Magellan you could input the mph over the speed limit you wanted to be alerted. It was very useful.

TIA

I recently made a trip from California to Phoenix, AZ. There were lots of junction views with the newest large JCV files. It seems that between my copilot, myself and then navigator(Garmin 1450), sometimes the view comes on about 1.5 miles out and at other times it is .8 miles out. Is there a rule for this?

Hello All,

I have noticed since this morning that there is no traffic coverage of all 400 series of highways in Toronto area on Smartphone Link app. I am not sure if it just me or everyone is affected. I will appreciate any feedback.

I checked http://here.com/traffic/canada/toronto.
This site is showing traffic on 400 series of highways. Normally this site has same coverage as this app.

Good Afternoon ...
Having fun adding POIs to my 2460LMT. Have a question - Is it possible to add the Custom POIs that load in Extras to be moved to Favorites so that a Voice Command could be given?

I have a Nuvi 1410. I have loaded the CN North America map onto my SD card but there are no POIs. do i need to load a separate file? if so is the standard POI set available somewhere? My original map was a Middle East one so none of the POIs are relevant. Thanks D

Hi I am traveling to Italy soon. . I am hoping someone out here has some garmen downloads to make the driving trip a little easier. I will be traveling to Sorrento, Pompeii, Lecce, Oriveto, Cinque Terre and then to Germany. Rotthenburg, Dachau and Munich. Any information someone has would be greatly appreciated. Thx.

After looking through FAQ on voices I have a question.

Does TTS Voice Editor handle TTS3 voices?

I am considering a 3597 which uses TTS3 voices.
I always enjoy modifying the voices. I do not believe the 3597 will use the TTS voices.

I just installed the Cracker Barrel POI file. With the file there were two sound files ... one a wav and the other an mp3. With the 2460 I understand that I need to use the wav. How do I get the file to load and use with the POI? I would like to create a sound file to alert for the Rest Areas, too. Unless there is one already.

TIA
Don

Alternate title: Ah, the joys of dealing with Garmin software.

Now that the 2797 is a year old, it's possible to get a decent deal on a refurb, so I bought one. Since GE had just recently started letting Mac users install maps on their computers in addition to the gps devices from within GE, I had lost some of my antagonism to Express.

Hi guys

Garmin release a new version of GE V3.0.16.0

Hi guys

A new GE version is ready to update, V3.1.6.0

I've been considering buying the City Navigator Europe maps for an upcoming trip to England, but it's pretty pricey at $99. Has anyone here used these maps? Are they worth buying?

Hello. Is anyone having a problem with there Garmin Nuvi 3597 not charging. I haven't used it in a while so the battery is probably dead. I've charged it up via the:

- USB cable to the computer
- I hooked up my ipad 4 white connected that plugs into the wall with no luck.

I have created two different Garmin Devices.

I bought a Magellan Roadmate 5045-LM to replace my Garmin Streetpilot c330.

How can I transfer the Garmin format "My Locations" files to the Magellan?

I found the "Extra POI Editor" in the files, but I'm not sure if/how I can transfer the files. Can someone clue me in? TIA

I had noted a problem about "Extras" not loading in GE in another thread and someone else mentioned that they also had the problem.

Well the "Garmin Forum" came through with a solution. Here it is:

1.Open Garmin Express
2.Click Device
3.Click Delete Device from Express
4.Uncheck the box next to Delete the saved backups
5.Click Yes to remove the device

Hi guys
A new GE version is avaliable now. V3.0.12.0

First of all, I ask that many of you read this whole post instead of jumping to conclusions. I was wondering if any one you had designed a route, simulated the driving the route with various stops, and went from stop to finish without any problems? First of all, I designed a route with a courier service that I am employed with. I designed the route with seven stops.
