I have a 885 and I am having trouble entering the Longitude & Latitude of a location I want to go to. Can anybody help me with this?

Vehicle Icon

I downloaded a vehicle icon for my Garmin Nuvi 350. It works great, but the color of the car is silver and I have a gold Scion Xb. I have tried to open the file but it has an .SRF extension I am unable to open the file much less change the color. Is there a program I can convert rthe file with? Thanks for your help

Custom Poi not shown during Bluetooth Usage

Greets All!!!! Great forum for Good quick info... I have a question on a 765T. Not sure if this has been asked before but I'm a little confused.. I recently set up my bluetooth phone without any problems. However, one of the options on the phone menu is points of interests then extras then custom pois under that it lists all catagories and all the Pois that I have downloaded off this site.

Garmin Nuvi 885t map update

FYI: For those users who own a nuvi 885t, i just got
off the phone with Garmin Support and now it seems
the map update 2011.10 will be available by May 13,2010.
I guess its a 50/50 chance.

Finding POI's

I have downloaded several POI's (Historic Veselsand others)
But I cannot find them on my GPS.
Most I can find such as Red light cameras and hotel chains and more.
I have tried to spell out the name and looked under all topics.
What am I doing wrong?

Garmin Nuvi 3790T Internal Memory

Hi there,

Does anyone here know if the nuvi 3790T would have enough internal memory in it?

I believe the 1690 has a 2GB limitation and updating maps, software and other stuffs would be a lot difficult doing it on this GPS due to limited memory.

Detour display for heavy traffic with Clear Channel

I have a nuvi 680 with the Clear Channel setup. I have not had an opportunity to get into heavy traffic to see how it works. If I encounter heavy traffic, or an accident ahead, will the nuvi ask me if I want to detour? Or, do I have to have an avoidance such as Traffic selected in the setup menu? Just would like to know how it would work. Thanks,
Jon

I haven't found this on the Garmin website. How much internal memory do the 7x5's have? How much do the 7x0's have?

Bobby....Garmin 2450LM

I searched but did not find...Nuvi 680 (factory reset)

I need to do a "COMPLETE" factory reset on my Nuvi 680. I searched the forums here and found a post that said to hold down the bottom right hand corner of the screen and then power it on and release and it would ask you "Are you sure you want to reset user data" or something to that effect.

Removing a via point.

Does anybody know how to do this after I inserted one in a route?

Thank you.

Change the Alert tone on the Ique M series

Is there a way to change the alert tone on a Garmin IQue M3 M4 or M5. I am trying to use this for the proximity alert for the red light cameras.

Routing and POIs

Does anyone know if they will ever program logic for the Garmins to display POIs within x number of feet or miles from the current route? For example, if I have a 1200 mile route entered, I would like to know where the nearest gas station is in relation to my route not distance from my current location.

Garmin 780

Does anyone there have a 780?

Nuvi 755t and Custom POI Problems

Hi All:
I am missing something here--if anyone can help, it would be great. I'm trying to make what I now think may need to be a TourGuide file, but I'm not sure. I am uploading these with POI Loader--but they aren't working--and after hours of trying!

Under my directory for MyPoi, I want to have a folder for some custom poi locations (haunted houses in this case):

Garmin Nuvi 255 Directions

Bought the 255W in Las Vegas when my C330 crashed. It can be confusing using it at home in Utah where our streets are designated as North, East, South and West. Here is the confusing part- It says turn right onto South 40th West, turning right heads you North. Why would the GPS refer to 40th West, which runs North and South, as South 40th West.

micro SD card size

Hi,

I want to get a microSD card for my nuvi550. Does anyone know what is the maxium size of microSD card it can support.
