Garmin talk

It appears that I cannot get my external memory to work with large files. To prove this I tried to load a 2.63MB file to the internal memory and it took. I then loaded the same file to the external memory and it took. I increased the file size to 11.9MB and it would hang up on the internal memory with the external memory out.

I tried to pair iphone 3.1 with Nuvi 765. It pairs without much problem. It transferes phone book etc. but when you make a phone call from Nuvi or receive a phone call while paired with nuvi you get audio on iphone and not on Nuvi speakers.

Is anyone interested in creating a POI file that has restaurants with salad bars? I know that Ruby Tuesday and Charlie Browns have them but what about non chain restaurants or chains that I have never heard of when I travel to different locations.

Hey all,
I've found a little glitch or something in my Garmin C330. It seems to be off by at least a few hundred yards on certain locations, like my house for one. In that case it's about 4 houses off and directs me to the neighborhood common area instead. Is there any way to correct these variances?

C

how can I move favorites custom pois and/or sd card?

I have 200w want to upgrade to one with street names.

I noticed it's $199, and 8 > 6 (as in 660). It seems as if it would be a good deal. I know with the 660, I have NEVER used the bluetooth function, it's not very good, at least not as good as a $35 Plantronics headset.

Next stop or price point, $99, maybe in a year, right?!

I love your site and the service that you provide; needless to say that in the past 2 days I've downloaded more than a few of your POI's on my brand spankin' new Garmin nuvi 265WT. And boy, o-boy...do I have a lot to learn!

I am trying to find out what POI's if any have been loaded onto my Garmin 265wt.
Everytime I go into the dashboard to read my GPS it tell me "Internet Explorer has closed this webpage to help protect your computer

A malfunctioning or malicious add-on has caused Internet Explorer to close this webpage."

Hi all,

Does anyone has any success of getting Garmin or Navteq to correct map error after you submitted it using the online form ?

I just submit a map error using the online form at the Garmin website and wondering how are their responsiveness to it.

Thanks

Hi all,

Within mapsource, for each waypoint, you can put in some comments. After loading these waypoints into the Nuvi, Is there anyway to display these comments on the Nuvis ?

Thanks

We just did a trip from NC to MN. While still in NC, I used Mapsource to input into my Garmin 765t, the route I wanted to take. The Garmin came up with 1201 miles in 17hrs 42 minutes. Using 14 waypoints to peg the route so it isnt recalculated when sent to the unit. While here in Cottage Grove, MN, I used Mapsource to config the same route back to NC.

Has anyone noted charging problems with the MSN Direct Receiver GDB 55 battery? After about 6 hours on DC power the battery on my cable only charged to half scale. Then intermittantly it indicates 1/4 charge or no charge. This may have started after the software update that was to provide faster acquisition of traffic information. I am not sure.

I am very disappointed in the low volume level from the on board speaker of the Nuvi 780.

I tried TTS Voice Editor and the volume is still not at the level of my N200. The navigation voice is louder but all the other sounds are still too low.

Below is what our friends at Garmin had to say

So, what external powered speakers do you find works well ?

I was wondering, how do you know that the red light information has been transferred onto the GPS? I downloaded the software from Garmin. The GPS indicated it. But, the red light info, I don't see it.

Has anyone considered a POI for Italian Restaurants?

Is there a way to permanently set the initial viewing height on the 775T to around 300 ft? .2 miles is a bit much for my use as I would like a bit more detail on start-up.

BTW, thanks to Gary H. for his great site on the Garmins!

i can am very new to this can somebody tell me how to save a file when i download it and where to save it and so i can find it useing poi loader .and how to save in c;drive

I was wondering if anyone has experienced a problem with thier Garmin Nuvi 255w just reseting to factory? I can't say for sure it was a factory reset, but all my userdata(waypoints, and system settings) were deleted or reset.

Only thing that survived was the RedLight Camera custom POI which was loaded on the SD card.

Is there a way to create multiple "Custom POI" groups on my GPS? I am able to grab a POI file and load it to the GPS but I can't figure out how to select different POI groups. Whenever I include secondary subsets of POIs, the POIs merge into a single POI file. Can someone point me in the right direction on this please?
Thank you, Steve andrews757@hotmail.com
