Garmin talk

I'm heading to Europe and wanted to take my Nuvi 265WT to use as a handheld. However, preliminary testing looks like the battery lasts only about 1.5 to 2.5 hours. Not nearly long enough for walking around all the cities we plan to visit.

I recently purchased (and am using) a 2460LMT. I notice now that when the traffic icon turns yellow or red, it no longer lists a number beside it for the traffic delay. Not a problem,just wondering.

I'm planning to take a trip to Europe and wanted to ask if it's possible to install European maps on my Nuvi 265WT. If so, will this overwrite the existing North American maps on my Nuvi or will the European maps be added to the existing North American maps?

I have a Garmin Nuvi 2460LMT which by the way is a fantastic model in my opinion which rivals even the higher end models - including some of the new ones. It has a full feature set with a large screen and voice recognition which only a handful have.

Nuvi 1450
Latest POI Loader
Windows 7 64 bit system.

The latest POI loader has been working flawlessly on this system. Tried to update POI files this morning and the APP keeps crashing half way through the first process.

Tried what Garmin recommended on their FAQ, deleted POI Loader, went into and fixed registry items. The reloaded and tried to run again. Same error.

Any ideas?

Hi.

How do I remove the call history from my Nuvi765t?

Thanks.

I was downloading a route from Mapquest and my GPS 3790LMT went dead. Any idea what went wrong. I received the msg that my computer was not recongnizing my gps. Unhook from computer and now it will not turn on.

Hey everybody. Just curious if anyone has bought a hard shell case for their GPS. I'm looking for something that will withstand some abuse....like if a heavy box got dropped on it, or it got stepped on by accident......it needs to be pretty sturdy.

Oh, and don't ask why I need this....it's a sad tale.

Thanks again

Does anyone experience the Nuvi 3490 & 3790 not connect with USB 3.0 on PC?

I'm using Sony Vaio laptop with NEC USB 3.0 chipset. It does charging but not syncing.

I also have the older model Nuvi 765T which is working well with USB 3.0.

I found that my phone, that worked with my old nuvi, is incompatible with my new 2495LMT. Garmin support tells me that more phones will be added. If you want a new Garmin and require "out of the box" compatibility with your phone, you might wish to check the following link:

I have a Garmin 1350MFT. I had no problem downloading Redlight Camera and Speed Camera .csv and the associated custom made .wav alert files. However, the .bmp files that I downloaded from this site do not appear. Yes, I made sure the bitmaps had the exact names as their associated .csv files. I just can't figure it out.

Can anybody share their experience?

I'm in the market for a new GPS for my car/bike. I am not able to buy a Zumo so that is out. I am looking at the new 2455 and 2555. Anyone have any experience with them? Any suggestions? I am not really looking for Bluetooth or any of those bells and whistle. I would like to be able to create routes on Google or Mapquest and download them to the unit.

All help is greatly appreciated.

I bought a Garmin Dakota 10. Any concerns I should be aware of??

I own a Nuvi 765 and use it with my motorcycle via a Ram mount. Recently, I decided to change my setup. Initially I was using the 765 with my nuvi 200's charger (connected to my cigarette lighter port under the seat). Using the 765's mini-usb port worked fine and I had no issues; however, I wanted to go USB so I could charge my iPhone on the road without carrying a bunch of adapters.

A friend bought a 1450 LMT... I've a Nuvi 660

I use CSV files, and MP3 files for my POI's... And older POI Loader

Will this combination load POI's Successfully in her 1450 LMT ???

Or is there a difference in the POI loading procedure?

Thank You!

Hi Guys,

In preparation for 2012 Danube River cruise, I have begun to enter city locations complete with Google pictures. For some reason I cannot display places with a Longitude greater than 18.3 E with either gpx or csv format. The following cities are stored in the csv file (gpx file contains the same data) in this order.
14.42098,50.08993,CZ Prague
19.05153,47.49072,HU Budapest *

Have a 255W gps, am thinking about buying the new 2595lmt. If I do I wonder if I can load the maps from the new gps to my old 255W, anyone tried this?
