Just added poi's to my 3597 using poi loader.
I received the successfully added notification.
They are not showing up when traveling.
I tried zooming in and being with 200 feet or less
They are listed under custom poi but don't show up on the screen.
Is there an upper limit to the number of poi's causing them not to show up?

Just got a new RV660, and it has map 2015.40 on it. Tried using Garman Express to update and no new maps for it. Email Garman Tech Support and got this as a response.

I have attempted many times to make a correction to a OSMap, but I have not had any success. I am looking for a contact for either OSM or another account member, to whom I can forward this information so changes can be made to the map.

I have 700 Disc Image Files, one for each of the contour maps in Canada.

How I can I combine these files to produce a Disc Image File that I can load into my Nuvi 2689

Apple just removed its number one paid utility in the Mac App Store, Adware Doctor, after it was found to be secretly recording users’ app data and browser history and sending it back to a server located in China, as spotted by 9to5Mac.

Garmin has announced a new handheld device, the GPSMap 66.

Hmmm!!!

a. If you have a European map installed
b. Have the SmartPhone app installed
c. Are IN the US

Can you get traffic info from europe if you get the screen to display roads in europe??? Probably not.

But the traffic in Paris, France shows up in Google Maps on a PC here in the US. Don't have a European map installed in my 3597LMT, so I can't test this.

Garmin Express v6.8.1.0 is ready to download.

Since my SD Card keeps falling out, (SD Slot is on the bottom which is a poor design), I am wondering if I can copy the map into the internal storage of the device.

What folder would I use as the Map folder is empty even though I have Garmin Maps installed

Can I delete some of the files,(all files not designated with US) in the Keyboard File?

I just found this folder in my computer on the C drive. I am using the forward slash since this forum does not allow the backward slash.
I did not create them.
Can anyone enlighten me why or how this came to be?

In each of the 2018 folders there is a .System,GPX,POI and Reports folder.

3597, and I have downloaded and installed, (on a SD card) one Topo Map. The only was I can see it is if I uncheck all the other maps and leave the Topo checked in my maps.

Is there any other way to view the Topo without unchecking all the other maps?

Last week I took a trip to go Upstate NY to go see relative for the first time since they move there.

I enter the destination on 2 of my Gps C550 and 1450 I take the C550 just for a back up just in case something go wrong on the way with my 1450 both GPS give me 281 miles and about 5 hours driving to get there.

I've noticed numerous wrong speed limit indications with my Garmin. I have notified Garmin about it and gave them the coordinates but no change with the new updates. It's been almost a year now. I've also found many more errors which causes a concern if you are relying on the Garmin GPS to inform you as to what the speed limit is.

Seems as if other apps aren't handling I-11 very well.

Tonight I felt really ignorant because I don't recall ever seeing this prior to tonight. I had been driving for a while on I-35 and I got the icon that popped up:

Need a break?

Holiday 2.6 mi

Famous Dave's 1.0 mi

Forest Lake Rest Area 0.7 mi

Below were selections: Stop Asking and Ask in 30 min.

For the last couple of days I have seen one strange issue with my NuviCam. The screen shuts off while the device is still working. The other issue I can see is the battery. Looks it is not charging and may be due to battery issue, it is shutting down screen?

Please advise..

I upgraded to the latest software and maps on my 2689 about a week ago and after a 3 day road trip I swear the ability recognize what I say has gotten worse. Seems to happen after every upgrade. Most times when I ask for a street or place it seems to come up with something not even close to what I said.

I purchased the GTM 60 HD Digital Traffic Receiver some time back for my Nuvi 2597.Was aware of the Weather icon, but had never used it and had forgotten it was there. Decided to try it out while on the interstate. Showed me the current weather for the area plus the extended forecast. Nice little feature to have.Sure it is limited on locations available to get the weather report.

Last week Interstate Highway 11 opened in Nevada. It is a short section that bypasses Boulder City, and the freeway may expand using existing or new routes to Mexico and points north in the future.
