RLC/Speed cameras notifications

Do you have to be navigating to be warned or just have it on in map view (non nav mode)?

Been using a Nuvi for about 5 years, got a smart phone this weekend

Wow, could be the demise of my Nuvi 760.

Anniying start-up pop-up

Suddenly, when I boot my machine, I am getting a pop-up from Garmin saying that it wants me to register my "new" Garmin. I have two Garmins that have been running all year and longer. If I click to ignore it, it comes back at the next boot. It's annoying. Any ideas?

Garmin 1390LMT Amazon Goldbox, $115

How do you classify a Waypoint or Via

to not be announced when driving a route? I read on here somewhere that Basecamp has that ability. That would be great if it does, but I haven't been able to find a way to make it do so.

Thanks for your help.

NUVI 265WT

I have a MAC running OS Mountain Lion. I needed to update my maps and it always says I don't have enough memory. I deleted everything what do I do to make the gps work again? What do I do in the future so that I don't have to delete everything again?

Thank You All,

Current.gpx File Shrinking

When I lost my 465t in a fire, I decided to get the Dezl. Luckily, I had a fairly recent backup of my Favorites which I was able to copy to the Dezl. This file - current.gpx - was 2.5 MB when I copied it over.

INRIX Traffic on a Garmin!

Anyone exited about the new Garmins that are about to come out?

Garmin and INRIX just inked a deal to put the best, by far,traffic data using digital radio on some new Gamins. At least the Diesel models!

If you have an Android device, INRIX has a free app in the market. It will amaze you, much better than Google's traffic! And totally destroys what Garmin uses now!

Can't Install American Jill - Nuvi 50LM

When I try to run the program, the COM/USB portion tells me it can't find the device. I've tried Auto-Detect, the com ports, changed baud rate etc.

I can "see" the GPS from the PC no problem.

What am I missing?

TIA,

Garmin GPS Modifications

Hey guys,

I just got a new Garmin 1490LMT, and did some research on how I can utilize all the features on this toy. All I did so far is adding a micro-sd and updating the map lol.

What are some modifications/improvements is there for the Garmin GPS.

eTrex HCx not seeing Garmin SD card

Here is an odd one I can't find the answer to...

I have a Garmin City Navigator Europe NT Micro SD card. Works perfectly well in my Zumo and Nuvi. I have been trying to use it in my eTrex HCx and cannot get any detail when zooming into Europe while it is installed.

I have already tried the following:

How to erase POI category on Nuvi 3580LTM

Hi guys,

Hoping someone can assist as I am having trouble with my new Nuvi 3580LTM.

1450 lost TTS

A couple of years ago I bought myself, my daughter, and my sister Nuvi 1450's with lifetime maps. Whenever a new map gets released, I udate all three 1450's and everything is (was) wonderful. I didn't actually take the other two out on the road after an update, I just assumed that their 1450's continued as well as mine.

Connecting usb cable around GPS usb connector

I have a Garmin Nuvi 200 that the usb connector broke off. So I was thinking of connecting an old usb cable to the battery connector. The battery has a red, green and black wire. After cutting off the male (small) end of my usb cable I see it has a red, green, black and white wire. I'm never going to connect to my pc again so what the heck.

Problem with waypoints on Basecamp

I have a bunch of duplicate waypoints on Basecamp part of them have no position, it comes up as 0,0. I don't seem to have them on the Nuvi 3790, only when connected to Basecamp. I've tried to delete them but they don't stay deleted, then Basecamp fails and I have to re open it. They are back when I do. I could go thru and use copy paste and change each one but there are to many for that.

There is a white line across the middle of my 2595LMT

When I turned my 2595lmt on this morning, there was a white line across the middle. I did a hard reset but it is still there. Has anyone else had this problem? I am thinking this is a screen issue and I need to call Garmin Monday. Thanks for your replies.

Garmin going away from NAVTEQ and back to INRIX for traffic?

Just the other day, in the UK, Garmin started the switch BACK to using INRIX as its traffic supplier (Source: http://www.inrixtraffic.com/blog/2012/garmin-with-live-inrix...). The article contains this interesting quote: "The UK will be the first market where Garmin will introduce the new technology."
