Garmin and the 50 closest poi
Hallo again.
This time i wonder if there is an easy way to look at all of the pois in a file in my garmin?
As it is now i can easily see the 50 nearest poi and to look at the rest of the poi in my file i have to search for them with their names.
Is there any setting that can bee adjusted so i can look att all of my poi in my garmin? not just the 50 closest.

Nuvi 2798LMT with Backup Camera
Just read about this one and it seems to be a new model in the USA but the number seems to have been used in Europe already.
https://buy.garmin.com/en-US/US/prod150565.html
Looks interesting but would like to hear reviews first, not sure if it is already shipping or not.

GPS Unit's "Extraneous" Files?
While I was uploading some custom POIs on my Garmin nuvi 2597LMT, I took a peek into the various file folders on the unit's internal storage. There appear to be a tremendous number of foreign language files, themes and other various files I don not think I would never ever need/use. At a glance the files appear to consume a considerable amount of the unit's internal storage.

Clear Channel HD Traffic
About a month ago, my nuvi 765t was stolen, so I bought a nuvi 3490lmt that came with HD traffic from Navteq. I ended up buying a clear channel traffic subscription to supplement traffic reporting because I live in Baton Rouge, LA, which is not covered by Navteq, but is covered by Clear Channel.

Icons for POI Files on Older Units
I have 2595LMT and a 255WT. My POI files with alerts work on both, but on the older 255WT, the icons marking the POIs do not show up unless I get the alert. Is there a way to make icons show on the map all the time form POI files?
Thanks in advance!

Garmin Bluetooth speaker for music/podcasts?
I'm planning on replacing my Nuvi 765 due to random rebooting and a number of other problems. The one feature that I will miss is the MP3 player.
I'm aware that Garmin no longer offers an MP3 player. Will the current Nuvi models such as the 2497LMT with Bluetooth sync with an iPhone and play music/podcasts through the Nuvi speaker?
Thanks in advance!

Traffic function missing from Nuvi 265WT
Hello: Today I noticed traffic function is gone from my Nuvi 265WT, which is supposed to have lifetime traffic. I don't know how long ago it happened. My wife has been using for the past 2 years. The unit appears to work normally otherwise. I still have the original power cord with the traffic receiver. I ran WebUpdate and installed all available updates from Garmin.

Which Garmin units DO NOT support.......
Is there a list of which Garmin units DO NOT support creating a route on the PC with Basecamp (or Mapsource) and sending it to the GPS?

Another Garmin Goof
I created routes on my 2597. When navigating the routes I find there is no lane guidance in the upper left hand corner of the screen, only the turn indicator. This is a real bummer. There is lane guidance on a simple go to, but none on created routes.

Garmin nuvi 2597 Custom POI Descriptive Text Display
I have a new Garmin nuvi 2597LMT and for the last week, I have been creating/downloaded/editing POI files and learning about how to upload POIs to my unit with the Garmin POI Loader. I manually created my POI files. My first effort to upload about 10,000 POIs was successful. I designed my own icons and prepared my own audio alerts and all worked perfectly.

Custom POI upload verus BaseCamp collection upload
I am converting from several old Garmin devices to a new one with lifetime maps 40LM. (I am not happy with the 40 series as it is slow and missing many old features.. will upgrade again soon). I have loaded all the favourites from each old device into BaseCamp so I can sort, rename etc and reload onto the new device; or any future device for that matter. However, I am a little confused.

855 interesting item
I typically download my weekly tracks to MapQuest on Sunday evening. When I did so this evening, is showed no tracks, routes, waypoints or maps. Checked the drive and GPX folder was empty. WTH?
Unplugged and plugged in again and Presto, everything was there.
Go figure!

US Maps on foreign Nuvis
Just curious if you could load US maps onto a Nuvi model only available in Asia. For example the Nuvi 3592 sold in Asia is available with their integrated drive recorder, or dash cam. Garmin tells me no idea when or it it will! Be sold here. IMHO, this is.a great feature whose time is come and garmin is losing out on a lucrative income stream by not moving it to the US MARKET.
