Garmin talk

Hey Guys; whats the deal with my POI's I thought I had it down but noop!

I have a new Garmin 1350t and I downloaded the Starbucks cvs file and the Panera cvs files to my PC (Windows 7). I used the POIinstaller to install them on my device. It says it's successful, the POI file on my Garmin reflects the date I did the download, however when I go to Extras, nothing is displayed.

I´m very keen on buying a Nuvi 3790 but in some of the reviews I´ve read there have been some comments that the unit is slow in getting a GPS fix and holding it can anyone confirm this for me.

The 2011.3 map update should be released sometime next week looking back on the last 3 dates that the 3 previous map updates were released. My guess would be that it would be released on the 27th. I'll keep you guys posted.

For the past 2 hours I've been trying to install a Redlight Icon on my 885. The only thing I get is a default dot. I've done this 100's of times before but it just won't come up. I'm also having trouble with the custom sound. Can anybody help me please

just bought a new computer, windows 7

and city navigator will not show up in mapsource
only my topo maps and north america city select v5
my old computer had xp and it worked with city navigator north america 2010.2 anyone know how to add it thanks

Looking for a program that will convert wav to a mp3.
I had one before but don't remember where I got it.

Looking for sound that says wawa ahead where would i find that.

(1) I my opinion, there should be two prices for maps. One price for those who do not already have an earlier version of that map, and a lower price for those who already own that map but are just updating it. Most major software companies follow this format for their software.

Just returned from Mexico (Guanajuato and San Miguel)on a two week trip. The 1490T did very well on the roads and directions. It did not know very many POI's which was ok. Overall a very good experience and it worked well.

if I were to insert an sd card loaded with all the 465t files would it work as one reason cause a friend of mine has one and I took all the file's put them on an sd and the funny thing is that when I insert it to my pc it opens up as a 465t on the run file but can't get it to do anything on my 785 recon there's a trick it just won't happen what yall think

Hi,

I just updated by 1370T without reading what it did. Now I find all my favorites are gone. Is there any way to recover them. I just found out that I could have backed them up. Is it too late?

Thanks.

I lost my trusty nüvi 760 and can't find it anywhere. Looks like I may have to purchase a new GPS. I don't care if it's a bit on the spendy side and I'm a Garmin fanboi but.... I need the dang mp3 player and FM transmitter and it looks like none of the new units have those features any more.

Looking for a list of Wawa stores.

I know we have read this before but here is another story saying the same rumor that has surfaced before:

I got my Return Material Authorization on Sep 16 and I'm still waiting a decision about where to send my nuvi 750. Anybody else with this problem?

I've had my 765T since they came out (nearly two years now). I went through all the software issues. They replaced mine three times during all that early on. Overall now that the software is straightened out I'm really happy with all but one aspect. If I try to use it on the battery it shuts down in 30 to 45 minutes. That has been my experience with all three units when I had them.

Anyone ever hear of Garmin being paid to send folks via Toll roads vs other routes? Even though the non toll route may be faster?

It appears to me that I can remove all the files in the /text folder on my 1490T (.glx) with the exception of the four en_GB files as this is the only language I am using on my unit. That would free up another 35 meg of space on the unit. (In older units, these files are the .gtt extension)

Anyone see a problem with that?

I recently bought a Nuvi 1490T with life time maps. I expected that when I registered it I would be offered the free map update. However when I registered the unit I was given an offer to register the life time card. I thought this was a bit strange and I selected to register later. I looked for the free map update but it was nowhere to be found.
