Garmin talk

I had a 660 that I gave away because I upgraded to the 885T. My question is if I would buy another (GTM-20)receiver plug would I be able to get the traffic or would I have to pay again ?

Ok i have loaded the beta file red light camera file. The last time i loaded both files in the folder but was told only to load one. So i have done this. I am not getting a voice alert when approaching a camera, only a screen alert. The mp3 voice alert is named exactly the same as the camera alert! Does anybody have any ideas as to what could be wrong?

Just a heads up for anyone looking for a Nuvi 765T. Between 8/17 - 9/6, the price will drop to $279.99 (right now 329.99) + Tax. The price is already included with shipping. With Costco's excellent warranty and return policy, this is a well worthwhile purchase with peace in mind.

I have a Nuvi 855. I updated a couple of POI files and changed the distance alert for red light cameras. The changes didn't show up. For two days I tried everything, and nothing would work. In frustration I deleted all of the POI files to start over but they were still showing when I viewed the map. I checked the POI folder and they were deleted, but still were showing on the map.

Is there a way to load the POI files to the SD card instaed of internal memory?

Hello all,
I have a Nuvi 350 and wa just wondering if this model was compatible to show DEM maps.

Till later

Thanks everyone for their prompt replies.

I have tried on 6 occasions to renew my MSN lifetime traffic, even went through MSN's tech support and kept getting an error at the last screen that told me to try again. They received the same error during 4 trys.
I downloaded the latest updates for my unit 4.6, and am still receiving the error during activation, please try again message.
Getting late, getting sleepy.

I have an old Garmin Streetpilot C310 nd vista 32 bit. I have downloaded the poi loader from the Garmin site and have placed the Exe file on my desktop. When i click to install the files unzip and i am getting click next to install, then agree to accept the terms and then click done to launch poi loader now. The page then closes and nothing more happens.

I have down loaded diners driveins and dives can i just now transfewr to a sd card and plug into my garmin 650 ? thank you

Is the warning time for turns adjustable?
My NUVI 350 is a little slow on the draw. Sometime's it lets me know about turns at the last minute.
If I am going a little fast I almost miss my turn.

I registered my Fathers Nuvi and opted to take the Down loadable Map update, i tried to open it numerous times and it keeps locking up! Has this happened to anyone?

I tried to use my 885T as a hands free cell phone and it sounds like junk. When I use the FM Trans coming thru my car speakers there is no problem. Is there anything that can be done about this other than using the fm transmitter. I also have a 660 and that one works just find..

Hi everyone.

I have a Garmin nuvi 680 which I am filling with POIs, currently working on food joints, so that I am covered wherever I may be in the US. Have currently 36 POI files with associated .bmp icons which I would like to combine into one.

In an effort to free up internal memory, I temporarily moved the pre-loaded gmapprom.img file out of the nuvi and into my PC's hard drive. When attempting to reinstate the file into the nuvi (via windows copy by dragging and dropping the file into the Garmin folder of the nuvi), the copy operation repeatedly fails with about 30 minutes remaining (at about 40% complete).

Just wondering if anyone else is having problems,downloaded update just fine,clicked extract,after about 20 mins window pops up says extracting,after 2.5 hrs still on 0 percent,
any thoughts ?

I'm using MapSource on the PC and have the 775t. Is it safe to delete the older map folders and data from

C:\Documents and Settings\All Users\Application Data\GARMIN\maps

I think i know the answer but i'm bored and wana make sure,lol, Anyway is there anyway at ALL to transfer my updates for/from my 350 every time to SD card for my 320 to keep that updated too? it reads maps off a card so if i can get to sd and can read it it's plug and play for my 320.

Was there a firmware update I missed or is it new? I plugged my 265T into my PC and saw a new software update from MyGarmin page from Garmin's website this morning. I clicked the link and it started updating my firmware.

I show Software version 5.30 which I don't think is new and a GPS SW Version 3.10b (which I think is new?) from 265T.

I haven't tried to send a location to my Garmin from Mapquest for a Long time but I know I have done it before. Tonight I tried to send a Museum location and all it would do was email. The 'send to GPS' wasn't highlighted. Have they changed the rules?

My GPS has lost the constellation twice while it is in use, Once in Allentown,PA and now here in Oakland,CA
