Garmin talk

Could anyone help me to set an new Garmin 3590 lt to English - it is in a Scandinavian language which I do not understand.

I'm new here and I would like to know do most of you use Basecamp or something else(What else)to create routes to download to your Garmin

This applies to all nuvi 24x0 models.

Changes made from version 3.20 to 3.30:

◦Fixed an error that caused some address searches to fail.

◦Fixed an error that prevented Trip Planner from adding stops.

◦Fixed an error that caused myTrends to re-enable after a power cycle.

◦Fixed minor errors with map drawing.

◦Improved software stability.

Lousy for map update, after downloading, processing, failed several times. When I contacted Garmin for support, they didn't even troubleshoot it. They said don't use it, use Map Update. That worked the first try....I even tried 3 pc's with Express....

I have a Garmin 250, I installed the RLC POI, and now when I turn ON, only keep turn on and when find the map turn OFF, also when I connect to PC the PC don't see the GPS, I need to see on the PC to delete the file.
Any help?
Thank you

A firmware update v3.10 for the GTMxx Traffic Receiver has been released.

Can anyone help me convert 5 BMP's to files I could use as icons on my Garmin GPS?

I have them saved as 24x24 pixels or smaller images, but POI Loader constantly fails when installing them and their associated gpx, csv files.

So I installed 2013.40 last night and tested it this morning. I used the Garmin Map Updater program and it worked flawlessy. The map went on the SD card, and I copied the large JCV file to the JCV folder in the unit. Took about 2 1/2 hours for the whole operation.

Logged in to MyGarmin Dashboard today and received a system update.

It appeared to be very small as it completed in only a few minutes.

Anyone know what this was for? ... I couldn't find anything on the Garmin site. I didn't see anything remarkable or changed on my nuvi either.

First time I have ever needed help with my Nuvi 660 in 5yrs so I hope some one can help, I accidently loaded the same POI camp sites 3 times on to the unit via POI loader, I have tried connecting the unit to my PC and tried to remove via POI loader as it say's remove POI in a tick box, but they are still there in custom POI.

Success. Reading the Garmin topic: "Available now City Navigator 2013.40 North America" proved very informative. http://www.poi-factory.com/node/39212

Latest maps are ready for download, however, I had problems downloading and spent most of Saturday re-trying many times to complete the download. Kept coming back to find blank screen and an error message stating the disc (Garmin) was not ejected correctly shown when reactivating the display. Eventually I resorted to setting computer and display sleep to "Never" within energy saver.

I just received my 3490 and I discovered that it has a different file structure. I run windows 8 and it shows up as if it were a drive with a nuvi and memory card sub directory/folder. The nuvi folder has the typical subfolders but I could not locate the *.gcd or map files - even with it set to display the hidden system files. Lastly, it will only be visible in Basecamp.

Perhaps I'm paranoid about backups, but I normally backup my 3590 whenever anything major changes. So, after the 2013.4 update, I attempted a full backup. When it gets to the new gmapprom.img, the GPS shuts down midway into that file backup.

Sorry if this has been covered before, but if so I can not find it.

I have Mapsource and Basecamp on my computer. Mapsource shows me as the latest 2013.1 as does Basecamp.

I have along the way updated from 2013.1 to 2013.2, 2013.3 and last night updated to 2013.4 on both my GPS's.

My Garmin Nuvi 265 has suddenly decided to repeatedly reboot during use. It seems to have started on the second last map updgrade when I needed to store the map on an SD card.

Now, it boots frequently every few minutes making navigation in the city difficult and frustrating.

Does anyone know what's causing this and what the remedy may be?

thanks

Like almost everybody else, I get a 'not enough space...' message when trying to load 2013.4 to the 855. I subsequently loaded only the eastern NA maps but would like voice navigation, which it says is unavailable with this download.

However, when I checked the files on the Nuvi, there is only 1 which is dated 2013. Here are the files I think are pertinent...

I have a Nuvi2555LMT

After updating to 2013.4 I lost the Junction View. I see no options in the menu to turn it on or off.

Also, after updating I see both map versions 2013.3 and 2013.4 which appears to be for Alaska showing in My Maps. I added an SD card, could it be that one version is on internal memory and the other is on the SD card? I used Garmin Express for the updates.

Hello all,

I have two nuvi 1490 LMT's. The first one updated with latest map update and large JCV file no problem. The second keeps telling me my maps are up to date but when I check the files, the old map is still loaded. I used he Garmin Express loader to update.

Any suggestions would be appreciated.

Going to UK in a 2 weeks, bought a new SD City Navigator Europe card and it won't be seen by my Nuvi 1210, tried the same card in a friends nuvi 200 and it works fine?? All help appreciated. Thanks, Fred
