I updated a few Nuvi's recently ( 200, 600, 700, and 800 series NUVI's) and I noticed in the change logs for the software update that there was a change to add an additional map to the SD card. What is the naming format? Is it still 8.3? The first map is gmapsupp what is the second maps name.. I've tried gmapsupp1, gmapsup1, gmapsup2..

Hi
What is the exact procedure to have red light cameras POI running from SD card? (nuvi 50LM)
thanks.

Hi,

I have a Garmin 855 bought on line from the US and shipped to Australia with American maps installed and Australian maps on SD card.

I would like to buy and download the latest Australian maps with lifetime update and get rid of the American maps, but don't want to lose the Junction View or Lane Selector features.

Does anyone know a way around this?

Thanks.

I have tried at least 20 times to load sox14-0-1 to my Garmin 1390 with no sucess. I donloaded sox and placed it in my Garmin folder and in my poi loader. and then ran ran poi loader. I dont get any .WAV sound warnings that I have previously loaded into my poi loader folder.

What am I doing wrong? Can someone help me step bt step?

Thanks

I tried to load the state parks POI to my Nuvy 205.
All parks with a longitude higher than -104.00000 are missing. Any location lower than this is shown.
Have someone an idea what's wrong ?

I would like to install Redlight and Speed-camera data to my Nuvi 775 and 3790, with Garmin POI Loader.
I know, that I will have to create a file on my PC for the collection of such Redlight and Speed-camera data first, then use the POI Loader to transfer the file to the devices.
Looking around, I found several sources from where this data is available for download :
POI Factory

just got this 750 garmin but i can't seem to get the mp3 going i put in the sd card but it don't seem to show any music , can someone help ?

Well I decided to do a quick write up of the voice command structure for the 3790LMT Software V5.00.

The main screen that opens after giving the wake-up command is:
View Map; takes you to the map view.

Wow, had a heck of a time coming up with a decent title here .... anyway ...

Does anyone have a Garmin that is part of the car, in other words built into the dashboard? If so can they be updated somehow?

I have several portable Garmins that have lifetime maps included, so they get updated several times a year.

I'm a little curious about others' experience with the Traffic Alerts boasted in the marketing of many of the Garmin models. I currently have a Nulink 1695 (previously had a Nuvi 1690 until it died), and my experience with both units is that traffic alerts are very inaccurate.

Garmin has released update 4.1.0 for both the PC and MAC version of Basecamp.

Here is the PC Changelog:

Added support for Garmin Cloud Storage.
Added support for searching and displaying Custom POIs from devices (GPI file support).
Added ability to report map errors directly from within BaseCamp.

Can anyone help me on how I can load rivers and lake names on my Garmin 2555LMT? I live in NC and frequently travel back and forth to Florida. I would like the 2555 to display the names of the bodies of water I am crossing.

hi there,first post on this site
how do i transfer petro pass & esso fuel stops for trucks locations to my new dezl 760
any & all help would be great

A friend needs to install Map Source and I am not sure if it is still available from Garmin. All links that I have seen point to a Garmin site that is for updating a previous version and not a new install. My friend already has Base Camp but wants Map Source.

Anybody have a source for Map Source?

I would have posted this a week earlier but came home to a family emergency. In any event, I went to CES last week and I took my 3490LMT with me and put it along side of the new 3597LMTHD to do a few comparisons. I was not overly impressed with the new unit but it did have some features that were overhauled that I think are worth mentioning.

First I wanted to format my garmin nuvi 465t but I saved all files to my computer, I wanted a full clean new updated system...
well here is what I did:

I formatted with gparted to Fat32 everything when OK
I turn off my device abd turn it back up and it display garmin logo then reboot and it goes on a loop and wont connect to my computer...

I've loaded 2 POI files and I can set the new POI's as a destination. However, when I following the Tools->Settings directions there is no Proximity Points item to choose. I scroll to the bottom of Settings and the last one is Bluetooth with a blank spot to its right.

Sure would appreicate it if someone could tell me how to fix this.

Thanks!

Hi there - I've got an older Garmin GPS... a 760. I originally joined this site back when I got it a number of years ago, downloaded a ton of POI's, loved 'em, used em, and hadn't been back to the site since..

Just this weekend I brought my GPS inside, first time since I uploaded the poi's years ago! And updated the firmware and loaded some new/updated POI's.

How do I download a red light camera file to my garmin nuvi 2595LMT?
