Deleting files...

I am in the process of deleting languages in the Help, Text and Voice folders. All i want to leave is American English and Spanish. In the Text folder, should i erase all of them but Spanish? because American English is not there. Only British english.

Google Earth Supports Garmin Devices?

I don't know if this has been known for some time, but I'm still a brand-spankin' new user fumbling my way through the concept of creating .csv files and just ran across this: http://earth.google.com/earth_plus.html

POI Co-ordinates conversion to North / West conversion ?

I just bought the Nuvi 760 and see that the POIs listed here are in a format -92.345678,36.333888
My Nuvi 760 has a co-ordinates input screen with the format:
N 33 57.670'
W 84 3.119'

is there a way to convert the posted POIs on this site to my Nuvi format ?
thanks in advance

NUVI 660 Carpower plug without the suction mount?

Does anyone know of a connector that can be used to plug the carpower directly into the back of the 660 without using the suction mount? What if I don't want to use the suction cup but I want to use the fm traffic/carpower? I find this odd....

Struggling with poi creation

I created a poi file and used one that I had downloaded from this site for QuikTrip gas stations to see how to format the .csv file. Everything looks the same in my file, but the formatting is different. The QuikTrip file uses commas after the street address and after the CSZ.

Current time

Can someone tell me how to change the current time on a Nuvi 200?

A question about map symbols

I was wondering if it is possible to add map symbols to my nuvi 200w. I have a bunch of custom symbols that I could use, but I can't seem to find anywhere that they are loaded to.

??? Any ideas ???

Thanks.

POIs not viewable on nuvi 360

I have successfuly been able to load POIs onto my nuvi 360, but am unable to see them when I choose to "View Map". I was expecting to see them show up on the map, instead of having to sort through a list of them under "Where to?". The point will show up after you choose it from there.

HELP!! I formated the Nuvi!!!

I need help!

660 fm transmitter

Someone posted that you could increase the strength of the FM transmitter/modulator on the 660. Has anyone heard of this before?

Nuvi Mount

Can someone confirm that this mount will work with the Nuvi (ball size)? I'm pretty sure I saw that posted here at one time. I already have the base on my dash from my 2610 and would love to use it for my nuvi.
