add text to favorites

hello,

Favorites from Google Map

Over the past two years I have downloaded favorites to my Nuvi 750 from Google Maps. These go directly to my favorites and I use them for where they take me then I delete them when not needed anymore.

I looked at my files on my Nuvi and all the favorites I downloaded and deleted are still in my files.

I know I can go in and delete them, but why did they not delete when I deleted them from favorites? Is there a way to get any of these back in my favorites?

HSBC bank poi's

I am looking for (HSBC banks) poi files for New york and New jersey, but can't find any.. confused

Poi folders?

How do I make categories in my POI file similar to your Traffic camera POI files. I'm using the Costco list as a test. When I go into Garmin's POILoader. It loads the Costco stuff under extras, as individual stores. IE
selecting extras will give me

Costco San Francisco ...
Costco South San Francisco ...
etc...

I would like it to show
Costco Stores

New MSN Traffic from Hamilton Ontario station

I'm getting a traffic signal from 102.9 in Hamilton (CKDS-FM) which is an Astral Media owned station. Strange but true, and GREAT news if it stays up!

How to use POI Files

I am new to Garmin/GPS and I just found this site. I downloaded a brewery PIO file and installed it on my Garmin.

I understand the PIO file is a custom PIO and doesnt not append my preloaded files from Garmin.

Garmin poi files

I just installed the Costco POIs from here but I can't find them on my garmin! I used POI loader to put them on my Garmin nuvi 855 which it correctly finds. I've verified that my local costco is there in the CSV file.

Brazilian Speed / Redlight Cameras

After much help from members and some deep searches, I finally found a very good site for the Brazilian Speed / Redlight Cameras. It's a Brazilian website but with a little patience and a basic knowlege of Brazilian Portuguese it can be easily downloaded using Garmins POI loader.

Nuvi 660 Do You Like The Bluetooth

Im interested in hearing comments on the Bluetooth portion of the nuvi 660. I have a Nuvi 350 and I am considering updating to a 660 for the Bluetooth function.

I know its an older unit, but they are inexpensive and my 350 is perfect except for the fact that I would like the Bluetooth compatibility.

Thanks
Aron

Nuvi 760 won't acquire satellites after battery change

I changed the battery of my Nuvi 760. Process went very smooth, charged up the "new battery" and turned on the unit. It booted up "normally", but will not see satellites. Went into the satellite screen, and no activities at all; no bars, no blinking satellites. Any suggestions?
