Garmin talk

I have loaded a .csv a few weeks back which runs fine, as expected there are no icons on the screen.

I have searched for the answer but I didn't see anything.

In the past I have always cleared my trip log after Jeeping on a offroad excursion once I was able to return home. Todays 20 mile offroad trip in the desert needs to be saved because I plan to bring others out there in the future.

Is there anyway to save it to my comfuzer :>) and then reload it to my Nuvi 855 in the future?

TIA,

It is coming Tues. I had a 265W, but gave it to my son when he went to college. I then bought a car, Chevy Equinox, with a NAV system.
I was talking to my other son who is learning to drive, and he mentioned that it is distracting to always having to glance down to see his speed.

We have contacted Garmin numerous times about the voice of Jack, and maybe others, saying reft or something like that for left. It sounds like a cross between left and right and when on an interstate or other busy streets is dangerous as we have no idea which direction he means. I have software 7.2 and audio 1.20.

I'm Repeatedly getting the following error message with POILOADER 2.5.4 and the latest Offbeat Tourist Attractions....

"Data error in line 6231 in file... No further data can be loaded..."
Downloaded it multiple times... Same error...
Garmin CSV format file..

Older version already deleted.... Looking for previous version...

I reset the FM Traffic table on my Garmin 1490 LMT and the traffic icon has yet to reappear after several hours of operation. Any ideas.

I was driving in Levittown, NY and wanted to find a Dunkin Donuts. I went to Points of Interest and Food and spelled out Dunkin Donuts. It did a search and found 1 Dunkin Donuts that was 224 miles away.
Did anyone ever have this happen to them.

I finally found a Dunkin Donuts the old fashioned way - I looked for the sign and passed about 5 on my route home.

"Thank you for contacting Garmin International.

I have 2 POI files on my GPS

1) REDLIGHT CAMERA USA GPI. gpi file 358 kb

2) REDLIGHT CAMERA CSV.csv file 237 kb

Would someone Please tell me if those 2 files are the same thing, and what is the differents from a gpi file and a csv.file

Should I keep the GPI file ,and delete the csv file that is smaller in size?

Thanks in Advance

The issue with favorites being rendered as black dots still has not been fixed.

How can one change the poi file name on the Garmin 1490? If I down load Rest Areas, and use the POI Loader, it creates a file named Custom POI'S. If I do the same with another POI file, it overwrites. I have tried changing the name on the Garmin via Windows Explorer, but the name stays the same on the Garmin.

"there was an unexpected error during the creation of the custom POI file"

This is all it said, nothing else that would give me any clue whatsoever, of how to fix the error. Never have seen this before.

Can anyone help me find out what/where this error is and how it can be mended? Thanks much!

POI loader refuses to recognize the latest combined Truck/Rv stops file.
It downloads on my mac as a ".gpx.xml" file, which Safari & OS 10.6 recognize as a PC executable file. The only program that will recognize it is TextWrangler.
I tried removing the ".xml" but that didn't work either. The latest Mac POI Loader, which I just also downloaded, says the file is not a valid POI. So,

My garmin use the GTM-20 cable this is the second time that I purchase this cable. not cause I had any problem with it but cause my traffic riceiver it only last 90 days.

Checking something on my Favorites and found numerous duplicates, ones that I had downloaded and renamed, and ones I had long ago deleted.

This is the second time this has happened and it is a pain to delete them all over again.

What is the answer.

Thanks

I have a 1350 and need to know should I use MP3 or Wav file when loading a POI on it??

Is there a way to update Mapsource Maps in more than one computer?
I have Mapsource at work but always update the maps at home. Is there any way I can bring the home downloaded map updates to my work computer?

Had this problem for a while. I let it go as maybe some of the files were actually off and it would be fixed later.

And no.. I prefer using a download tool to help it go along and restart it. I do not experience this problem anywhere else. Yes I check for updates and using the add on like forever.

I just reinstalled Mapsource on my laptop after I upgraded to a new hard drive.

After doing the normal install of the latest map, running the installer file then the set up file, I have a Mapsource up and running again.

You would think that since they are already providing the full program for download from their site for free, a simple installer would allow people just to install it.

Until May 8th.
