Icons used on route
Can anyone point to a link explaining what the various icons Garmin uses along a route mean? On most routes there is a black flag, similar to what you might find on a golf course and usually on a corner. Yesterday saw a new one, an indented circle. Hovering/clicking? over the icon does nothing.

Increasing SC Card size
G'Day Mates, I have a pair of 3597LMT's that currently have 8GB SD cards installed. On both units, the current SD Cards contain map data. I want to increase the SD Card size as a hedge against the ever increasing new map sizes. I am a bit leery of just inserting a new card and downloading new maps. Has anyone successfully upsized their SD Cards when their old ones contained map data?

Garmin and Apple Play
Is it possible to project the Garmin map my DS65 produces to the map Apple Play would show. I do not have "data" on my iPhone so it can not produce a map unless I am in a WiFi area.

DriveLuxe 51 software update ver 6.70
I brought my DriveLuxe 51 in the house today to update the POI files and noticed that it had an alert for a software update. I let the update proceed and it installed software version 6.70. That was kind of a surprise for this old of a device.
May 12, 2022. Change log for DriveLuxe 51.
Changes made from version 6.60 to 6.70:
Added support for a new digital traffic provider in Germany.

Drivesmart 66 - No Garmin/HD Traffic - Only Live App?
I have the Drivesmart 55. It comes with a traffic cable to receive Garmin traffic. However, I swapped it out with the GTM-60 cable which gives better traffic and some weather info. Then of course there is the smartphone enabled Garmin Live App which gives more detail on weather, traffic, along with fuel prices, and other notifications.

Anyone having server communication error with GE 7.13.1.0?
Over at the site https://forums.garmin.com/apps-software/mac-windows-software... there are an abundance of people having server communication errors with GE version 7.13.1.0. I find it strange that no one here reports any similar issue. Many on the other forum are from Europe.

Extra POI Editor - Side Map Loading Script Error
Looks like the problem with Google maps has cropped up again. EPE has started giving me an error message ('An error has occurred in the script on this page') showing the problem being URL: http://maps.googleapis.com/maps/api/js?v=3&key=AlzaSyCkQmv5k...
And the map doesn't show in the upper right corner.
Anyone know what's going on, and how to fix it?
Thanks!

BaseCamp and Google Earth VIEW option
Years ago using the BaseCamp view option it brought up Google Earth and you could 'see' your waypoints!
Does anybody remember what version of BaseCamp and GE allowed you to do that?
Thanks in advance for the help.

GE 7.13.1.0 has same problem as prior versions....Darn!
For the past few versions, GE will see an SD card with HTML Garmin file from a 660, but during a map update will not warn you that you have to select a quadrant of the country..... THIS USED TO WORK..

Cannot Search 50 Closest
I have a Drive Smart 60, latest map & Software. Normally when I select a POI category on the unit, 1t shows the closest 50, and I can scroll up and down to select one. About 2 weeks ago, it started just showing the closest one, not allowing me to scroll up & down. Did I inadvertently change a setting or what?

Help me bring the laughs back to my Garmin Nuvi 680
I was at home because I was finally struck by the Covid bug. After the symptoms left (24-36 hours of being wiped out, thank you vaccines) and awaiting a negative test, I was going thru some boxes and came across my old Nuvi 680. It's been some time since it was boxed and set out for goodwill.

Upper Slobovia????
Sometimes i just can't figure out where Garmin comes from with these updates. Express tells me i have two updates on my units, but it doesn't know i have north american maps on them? Well it should since it never gives me a euro map update. That option of course isn't available for me. But yet... i have an update for a new german digital provider.

Failure of Wi-Fi map update on Garmin DriveSmart 51LMT-S 5-inch
Hi
Has any Garmin DriveSmart 51LMT-S 5-inch user here succeeded in updating maps by Wi-Fi?
On Wi-Fi my unit will update software but wrongly shows 2019 maps as "up to date" every time.
Thanks.

SD card warning
We are in the middle of a 5200 mile round trip and when I turned on my Drivesmart 61 the other day a message popped up saying something to the affect that the SD card in the Garmin device is no longer useable and should be replaced.
Why aren't custom POIs shown in Up Ahead search?
I have a Garmin zumo XT on which I have installed the Rest Areas with Restrooms custom POI file. I then added the custom search "Rest Area" to the options in the Up Ahead feature expecting data from the installed custom POI file to be displayed in the Up Ahead results but there isn't any change from what I saw when the custom POI file was not installed.
