Garmin talk

I have a file in my Garmin 855. It is GMAPPROM.IMG the size is 1,211,552 KB. What is this file. Can it be deleted.

Hi,

I have the garmin 3790T wondering if I should get the Red light camera download I live In Boston, MA

Has anyone ever seen or created a chronological listing of the various units? Something similar to that over at dpreview would be ideal - but I've never seen something like this for the Garmin units.

Given the various pertubations of features that Garmin offers/removes, this might show some master strategy on their part

I can access the information on my Garmin 1300 with my computer but when I hook up my C330 it will not show the GPS present. Does the C330 not have this feature? I wanted to see memory left and to delete some language files.

Buy one, get one free.

This is being discussed over on the GPS Review forum, but I haven't seen anything about it here at POI factory. Garmin has added some LMT models to the 13xx and 14xx series nuvi's which are bundled with Lifetime Maps and Lifetime traffic. (https://buy.garmin.com/shop/shop.do?cID=134) Most of these models are only $50 higher than the same model without the Lifetime maps.

I have downloaded City Navigator North America NT 2011.20 and successfully installed it on my 765T, however I can not achieve a successful install on my computer so Mapsource can also use the maps. I have run the web install routine three times. Install routine runs the full course but leaves nothing behind except empty directories where files are to go.

a big hello to you all i am a newibie here so please bear with me.

Hi - just looking for some suggestions or comments on a decent upgrade/update to the nuvi 360. Thinking that the nuvi 1250 or 265T might suit the purpose. My wife has the 360 and I have the nuvi 750. Both are working fine, but weighing the pros/cons of a map upgrade versus a replacement for the 360.

Preferences:
TTS
small screen size (2.8x2.1)
no flip up antenna
US plus Canada maps

Is the a POI file that would have liquor stores in it;especially major vacation spots (new orleans,panama city,etc)thanks

Hi,
This is the first time I am posting here.
I am hoping that someone can answer this question for me.
I have a eTrex Legend HCx with a 2GB card.
I know that it will read gmapsupp.img map with no problems at all.
But it will not see the map gmapsup2.img on the card.
I have tested this on a Nokia 5800 and a Garmin nüvi 1200

Hi,

I used a USB adapter in the car to use it to charge the blackberry and have no problems with it.

However when I used it to charge the Nuvi 350, it works fine until the main menu is on then all of a sudden the screen changes into the mode where it shows a image of the GPS unit connected to a desktop the computer and the screen gets locked out.

I looking for a AC charger so I can charge my 265WT. Anyone has info on a good charger.

I have downloaded the Rest Areas Combines and Red Light Cammers and a voice for the warning. I do not see a ICON as I approach the location of the red light cammers or receive the voice warning. I also do not see the icon for the rest areas. Can someone tell me what I have done wrong in the installation.

Thanks

So, I waited for more than a few reports of the new software's performance and two days ago made the decision to update my 1490T.
Another big mistake as Garmin once again proves Mickey Mouse still works in the software Dept. of Garmin.

I have 438 Favorites saved on my unit that included both business stops, friends and addresses. I also set up three sub-categories in my favorites.

What happens when you use manual mode but leave all the boxes unchecked for a particular POI file? I clicked next and it just moves to the next POI file and asks the same question.

The help file is pretty good to explain the options if you check a box, but has nothing to say if you leave all boxes unchecked (which is another option). Is that the same as choosing to ignore the file?

Changes made from version 3.50 to 3.60:

* Fixed issues that could potentially cause memory corruptions and unit shutdowns.
* Correct the colors for topographical maps.
* Correct transparency for some elements of topographical maps.
* Improved the way that Ciao! was reserving system resources.

The key question is in the title.

Sometimes I need to keep detailed log of my car trips for work. Is there a Garmin (or other GPS, but I really like Garmin) that does it well. Times and miles from past week or past 30 days would work great for my needs. Thanks all in advance.

I've had my Nuvi 760 for more than 2 years now. Just upgraded to the 2011 map via purchase of the lifetime update code.

With the help of others on this forum I have learned some important issues regarding the two types of Garmin POIs. I had been frustrated by my POIs not "proximity alerting" when using Topo 2008, and now I understand what was happening.
