Garmin talk

Does anyone know if you can make your own routes for this unit? If so,how do I do it? I took a trip recently and the route that was loaded was fine but halfway there it decided to take me another way , several hours out of my way (don't know what was up with that), but I would like to be able to lock in route or tell it how I want to go. Any advice??

What's the biggest capacity SD card people use on their Garmin?

Have anyone tried the SDHC 8GB or 16GB?

I know it works with SDHC 4GB as Garmin support web site posted.

My car and motor home both have a radio with a CD player. I think that is pretty standard in todays vehicles. Why would someone want a MP3 player in their GPSr? The GPSr sound quality certainly doesn't match my vehicle's system. Why not just burn your music on CDs and use them when you travel?

Is it possible to convert an MS Streets & Trips route (*.est) to a route file recognizable to my nuvi 760?

Hello Garmin Buddies - I searched the FAQ site but could not locate an answer to my ?

WalMart.com, I ordered mine, got a 3 year warranty added, and free shipping to the store close to me for less than $240! Great Deal!!!

have a Nuvi 660. I have it paired with my cell phone.

When I list a POI and choose to have the GPS dial it, that part works. However, the phone company always comes back that the number can not be dialed as entered.

The POI's have the phone number listed as:

+1-xxx-xxx-xxxx

The "1" is not the issue, I am wondering if the GPS is dialing the +.

I just read the May issue of Money Magazine and they recommended the Nuvi 780 as their choice for King of the Road. Granted, they only tested a total of 5 units, but the Nuvi was the clear winner. Of course, keep in mind that Money is a magazine geared toward financial advice, so they aren't really the experts, which makes the recommendation more from an average user. Hats off to Garmin!

I've looked here and there on this site and haven't seen what I'm looking for so I'll post here and, naturally, someone will probably immediately point me to a zillion posts on the exact subject. Anyway.....

I have a set of coordinates, but when I try to enter into my Garmin 760 in coordinates there are too many numbers whats up?

i cannot get downloaded new vehicles onto my nuvi 360.
i tried extracting them with winuzip and and then loaded them to my nuvi following all the instructions yet when i re power up they are not there
any ideas?

I'd like to share a trick my wife and I developed during our last trip to find cheap (yeah right!) gas.

Uregnt ! does anyone have The computer software that will let the computer recognize A garmin C330

It seems that all the speed camera alert are in one file. Is there a way to separate them so they will alert me when I go too fast instead of alerting me when I am X miles away from the speed camera.

For putting redlight camreas on my c330i just upload rhe zipped up file into the file going into the GPS IS this correct

After spending 30 minutes on the phone waiting for tech service to answer after explaining that I was having trouble with my disk loading to the nuvi 350 the tech said he would have to transfer me to a mac tech......Well I lost the connection and had to dial again and wait another 30 minutes.....the tech I talked to seemed knowledgable and took over the functions of my computer and attempted to ch

I made it to 1 of 20 finalists. (Turtle Tour)

Hello, I have a NUVI 760 and was wondering what I have to do to get the garmin and the custom POI's to show up on the main nav map? When I go to the browse map screen the POI's show up. I have set my zoom to 200' and still nothing. Did I mis something in the set up? or does the 760 not have this feature? Thanks in advance.B

First Good Day to all - Hope someone can help me here - I recently purchased a GTM12 FM Traffic receiver for my NUVI 350 - when plugged in I do show a traffic icon on my main screen - traveling thru Houston I did receive an alert sounding that traffic was ahead with congestion and recommended a better route - last weekend I was traveling thru Memphis and never did get an alert sound or icon indica

I found this info on another site. It worked for me. No hacks or cracks. It comes directly from Garmin. If this against the TOS, please delete.
