Garmin talk

Hi All

Please can you help, I am trying to edit "depth" on a waypoint using Basecamp for MAC.

When I edit the point on my MAC "depth" is not there. Using a Windows PC there is no problem

Kind regards

Neil

I have a fairly new Nuvi 2595LM with less than 12 waypoints starting in the northwest and ending in Oklahoma City. The unit cannot finish calculating the route, it gets to 67% and times out with a message that says that I must drive part of the route and it will then be able to finish.

Ok, another newbie question/problem. I have been reading and studying the FAQ's tutorials, etc. and have gotten familiar with my unit's file system and structure. I have installed and tried to use GPSbabel, Extra POI Editor, POI Edit 2007 and POI Loader. I have also tried to create a small POI file is CSV format to load into the 2575. This file has 8 properly formatted POIs in it.

Recently purchased a 2595LMT from Costco (on sale), disappointed that Garmin discontinued "Garmin Lock" on their devices, but nothing I can do about that. Anyway, when I press the address icon for input, the unit pauses for about 5 to 8 seconds before going to the input page. Does anyone else have this problem?, or maybe I have a bad unit.

Thanks

Having a problem getting the 3.5 gig free OSM map to run on my nuvi 250. I have installed other maps on microSD cards in the past and they work, but if I did any special magic at the time I forget it now. I downloaded the OSM USA map and transferred it to an 8 gig microSD card, putting it in a "garmin" directory on the card.

My recently purchased 3597 was stuck in demo mode. None of the things I tried (driving more than 10 mph for more than 30 seconds; trying to turn off GPS Simulator-it wouldn't uncheck) worked. The unit would re-boot and always come back up in Demo Mode without ever attempting to acquire satellites.

Hi!

I'm playing with BaseCamp, mapping out our upcoming trip, and I'm having a little trouble.

I am working in the City Nav map as below:

My Garmin Devices
nuvi 2460 (GARMIN)
maps
City Navigator North America NT 2013.4

guy im facing an issue with my newly bought 34990. after product registration it said unloack maps, after I went to my maps and downloaded again it said "cannot authenticate maps" . pls assist

Good morning!

My 255w allowed me to attach a photo to each of my favorites, and the photo showed to the left of the favorite in the favorites listings. This was a fun way to look through the favorites.

My 2460lmt doesn't seem to have this capability. Or does it?

My wife, who has a Garmin Nuvi 500, told me this morning that she might like to move up to a Garmin Nuvi with the Voice-Activated Feature. I have really never paid much attention to that feature in the past. Anyway, for those that have this feature, is it worthwhile and do you end up using it much or is it one of those features that really sounds cool, but you rarely use?

Shopping for a new GPS unit. Want the 7" screen with Lifetime Maps and Traffic. Also want to be able to download POI files from this site. I know the Garmin will download - does the RVND 7720 take downloads also?
If you were buying -- which unit would be top choice?

Thanks !!

Just used Garmin Express to download new software
2.80 to Garmin 3597 and had no problems downloading it.

We are getting ready for a trip to Kansas and Missouri, we're flying, but will be driving all around once we are there.

Bringing my nuvi 2460 and would love to hear any suggestions you have as far as using it with Mapsource or Basecamp for planning purposes.

Is routing even possible on my 2460?

Thanks!!!

from my nuvi 255W i deleted the garmin file by accident
When powered up,or connected to USB, a Garmin screen flashes and bleeps repeatedly, until i switch it off (with some difficulty).The computer does not recognise the unit,so i have no access to reload the files
i would appreciate any help from you guys

Hello to all the people that have the new Garmin Nuvi 3597. Have you all learned anything new about this device that isn't in the manual.

- Is there a way to change the font size on the unit. A font size of 8 or less would be nice. This way I would be able to see whole name of the POI.

On my last trip; to Ireland and Portugal the power cord that goes into the car's power source did not work.
Got back home and it charged fine.
Has anyone else experienced this and what can I do so I have it next time.
It has worked fine on previous trip to Europe.

Hello, I am a newbie to this forum and have a problem that I need help with. I have created a collection in Basecamp that I loaded onto my 2595 and now it just hangs when powering on and loading the North American Map. I fear that I hade too much content in the collection as I had brought all of the KOA and Good Sam RV Sites as well as the generic US & Canada campgrounds into Basecamp.

Somehow,my Garmin Nuvi 265WT downloaded the wrong traffic provider software on a previous update through the Garmin Express updater.I now have the Michelin French software in my unit instead of the US provider Is there any way to get rid of the French software and download the proper US version ?
Garmin tech support is useless.
Thanks

Used my Garmin from the east coasy. Worked fine. When I got into Yellowstone it was confused. Spent three days there. Thanks to the park map we got around

I have a Garmin nuvi 1490. I can't charge it in the car. It indicates battery low and it shuts off. Best Buy said it can't help. They said it could be the cord or the plug hole in the back.
It is still new, what do I do.
