Garmin talk

I'm not a biker and have no need for one of these but it's sort of surprising that no one has one or at least asked about the new zūmo XT.
It's only mentioned once here and only because it was having a map update issue.

Like many folks who had previously been able to update maps to their Garmin GPS using its built-in memory, the latest maps don't fit on my Garmin Drive 50 LMT. So I figured out I needed to get a Class 10 microSHDC card. I installed a 32GB one, which is the correct maximum size allowed by this model per Garmin, in the correct slot in back of the GPS. I rebooted both the GPS and the PC.

UPDATE

Sometime in December while I was in Mexico I had a problem with my C:/Windows/Temp folder filling up for no reason to the point that my C:/ drive was completely full. Several members tried to assist me in solving this problem. I searched the internet for a possible solution, but nothing worked.

Hi Folks,

Is there a way to update MAPS in my 2008 CRV as it uses DVD for MAPS?

Thanks

Anyone else notice this? My DriveSmart 65 used to start up on its own in the middle of a longer trip every now and then, but now with the latest update, it starts up on its own even on very short trips. This is now happening every day, instead of every few months.

I took delivery of a 2019 Ford Edge recently and being stuck at home I thought I would see where I could mount my GPS and I have found a really handy place for my 2797 to go.

I have Garmin 3790T.

Using POI loader and loading POI files manually, one can set the alert distance to any number of feet.

Alternatively, I'd like to set the alert distance by adding a distance to the file name and loading the POI files on an express, automatic basis.

For a POI file of Rest Areas, would a file name like this alert 2 miles away?

"Rest Area_10560"

Looking for help again.

Connecting my Zumo 396 LMT-S to my Sony motorcycle radio via bluetooth to play through the speakers. Not using a smartphone!

Q1.Which bluetooth "radio" setting is best. The BT Audio or BT Phone to listen to GPS turn by turn commands?

Q2.Which of those connections is best to listen to the turn by turn commands and the MP3 tunes simultaneously? (IF possible)

Ok guys,

I think I may have an understanding of what I need to do...Let me bring you all up to speed.

I have a ZUMO 595, I have several WAYPOINTS in BC that I want to save to my unit. Like camping spots, or swim holes, I use these when I ADV ride on my motorcycle.

I have another question. How can I get my DriveSmart 55 read a GPX file from the SD card. Let me set some conditions. Macs cannot see the DS 55 or 65 units because Garmin isn't smart enough to Figure out USB-C on Macs. I can use Garmin Express, but not Basecamp to connect to my unit. I also cannot see the the file system, or the SD card in Finder, (Explorer).

My car, '20 Cherokee has a backup camera with the guides and braking. Jeep has the option to have gotten a forward looking "crash avoidance" camera.

How about adding the BC 40 camera to my DS 55, but install it on the Front Plate? I seem to have gotten really sloppy about pulling up to a sign post while parking. I think I'm 6" away, but I'm more like 6' away.

Last 4 days or so I have had a problem on computer that stops pictures from showing up in my email. Also stops connecting to various sites like Facebook.. Small window pops up stating couldn't connect , OXc00000e5. Also HP CEE.exe and express.exe.
I tried to google and one person stated express.exe was in their software for Garmin navigation. They deleted it and their problem was solved.

Please can I have a link so that I can download the following JCVs having recently updated my Nuvi 2597 with City Navigator Europe NTU 2020.2

D6165110A.JCV (All North) and D6212110A.JCV (All South)

Thanks

So I have a Zumo 595 and I have the POIs Sw loaded on my PC. I went into Basecamp and made several Waypoints (like water falls, Gas stations and places to eat) and saved them in a separate file. I exported them to my PC and ran the POI sw and saved them to my 595.

You know those along the road or screen area icons you get as your driving as in Gas stations, restaurants and more stuff like that? I don't like that clutter. I want to turn them off, like i did with my 3590LMT and 2598LMT. I can't find a way to do that with this thing.

HELP....lol

Anyone else tried accessing the http://www.lowclearances.com site? I get an Account Suspended page when I try.

I have been a long time Basecamp users Mac. I know many folks don't like this app, but I have yet to find anything else on a desktop that has the database capabilities like it. But now I'm looking harder. I was running Basecamp 4.8.7 on MacBook pro in Catalina with no issues until I made the mistake of allowing it update to 4.8.8.

Despite the last two Garmin map updates, noticed that Garmin still has the old exit numbers for Interstate 84 in New York, at least between Newburgh NY and the CT state line (didn't pay attention in CT).

Luckily, most of the exit signs on the road have a small "Old Exit X" on the mounting bars below the new, large, sign.

The GoodSam Tip Planner now offers a option to download your Trip in a GPX file. How do you transfer that saved map to a Garmin 760?
