Anyway around the Favorite limit ?

I have a 255w and was wondering if there is a way around or to modify the limit of favs you can add.

Mine is at 999.

Trick Garmin into loading favorites from SD Card ?

OK i much prefer the favorites as to having to go into extras.

Is there any way to have the Garmin load favorites from an SD card and have them show as favorites not as extras ?

No auto time update after recent map update

I took my first multi time zone trip since I updated my map/firmware on my 2595.
This is the 1st time I've noticed that the time zones didn't automatically change for me.

I've looked through the setting for an automatic change but can't find one.

Is this just me?

Newbie POI Storage question

I recently purchased a Garmin 855 to use on my Harley since I couldn't afford a Zumo. I have downloaded the Harley Dealership file for USA and the POI Loader. My question is do I load the custom POI (Harley Dealerships) onto the sd card or the actual 855? The second part of the question is "is there anyway to sort the dealerships by state"?

Extra POI Editor-Requested Search Did Not Return Any Relevant Results

I am running Windows 7 and recently had a few security upgrades, which were the usual windows Upgrades.

I entered the address for a new location and clicked to Geocode the address. Instead of getting the Latitude and Longitude, I got the following message:

"Requested Search Did Not Return Any Relevant Results"

Can the Nuvi display MGRS data instead of Lat/Lon data?

LCD Replacement EDGE 500

Hi Everyone, i have being trying to find the lcd replacement for my Garmin EDGE 500, i contacted Garmin and they are willing to do it but for 90$ which for me it seems ridiculous cause i'm sure those lcds wont cost more than 20$ . and it is pretty easy to disassemble and install. I have search in many places without success. if anyone has any idea please let me know .

2757 Sound

Long time viewer but first post. I bought a nuvi 2757, love the unit but I am having some sound problems. I can load custom POI files and they show on the list of poi's but when driving there is no sound. Went through the poi loader and set the distance, have all the files named the same. I should say I have done this on my nuvi 765t. My question is what sound files work in the 2757.

Topograph maps for Nuvi 465T

This may have been asked before but I would like to know if there are available topo maps available to download and install for the 465?

Error Saving Custom POIs to Favorites

confused I have created some Custom POIs using EPE and they work fine. I get the proper alerts. I can set a route to any of them with no problems. However, when I try to save the Custom POIs to the my FAVORITES on my Garmin Nuvi 40LM, they show up but, the location is dramatically changed.

My Nuvi 200W is strange on every 9/11

I just noticed that my nuvi is strange, like yesterday, you know it was september 11 memorial day, but at that day, my nuvi is going strange. I had this happened every year on September 11th. What happened is, first of all, my nuvi is slower for (e.g), when I entering the address or finding pois, it respond a lot slower then another day.

Lines appearing on Nuvi 855

I have some dark vertical lines appearing on my 855 display. It appears to be a physical problem, rather than a software problem, but the lines are not visible when the GPS is powered off.

Does anyone know what causes this? The GPS is a few years old, but I still prefer it to the current models as it is packed with features like mp3 that I use.

Deleting Installed POIs

I have a Garmin RV760 LMT. When I downloaded and installed the POI file from Passport America RV parks,I managed to get it onto my GPS twice.Can anybody tell me how to delete one of the files?
Thanks

HD Traffic overridden by Live Traffic?

I'm currently using my 3597 with the included HD Digital Traffic receiver but I'm debating adding the Smartphone Live Traffic (through Garmin Smartphone Link $19.99) as well. It looks like it covers more cities and may be a nice adjunct to the HD Digital Traffic.

Nuvi 1250

A friend has a Nuvi 1250. Can the JCV file be used in it? If so which size would it be? The Large, mid or small file?
If it can use it, I assume it should be on a micro SD card.

Thanks for any info.
