JCV files
I have a Garmin nuvi 2370 with 2013.10 map version and would like to know what specific JCV file(s) should be used. I currently have a memory card with a folder name [.system] listed as a subdirectory under GARMIN and it has two files (D3192050A.JCV - size: 156,995 & D3373040A.JCV - size: 171,586) and I do get junction views.

Beanbag Mount
I thought I read here that someone bought a Beanbag Mount that had a "Silicone" pad on the bottom. If so, could someone tell me the brand name and/or the model number?

Icons Really Small
I have custom icons for speedways and red light cameras. When I migrated from my Drive Assist 50 to my new Drive Smart 55, the Icons are now TINY! Any idea if this is a known issue? Or was is just designed this way to not take up as much space. The speedway logo is now just about the width of 3 lanes of highway!

Difficulties installing Custom POIs using POI Loader
I've used BaseCamp Ver. 4.7.0 to create many waypoints for an upcoming trip. Each waypoint has a text description in the Notes to remind me of what will be found at that waypoint. I have then collected related waypoints in Lists named things like "Castles," "Distilleries," and so forth, then exported each list as a GPX file into a 22 uniquely named folders.

Basecamp Tutorials
For those who may be interested, the New England Riders BaseCamp PC and MAC Tutorials have been updated in early 2019. Thanks to Gérard Friedman we now have a MAC version translated to French.
While these were developed for motorcyclists and the Zumo line they should be useful for other users as well.

A New Version Of Garmin Express (6.13.0.0) Is Now Available
I just saw that a new version of Garmin Express(6.13.0.0) is now available. So, that made me wonder, do most people here update Garmin Express as soon as you know a newer version is available or do you wait and do it just before you need to for updating maps?

JaVaWa Device Manager won't read my Garmin DriveSmart 61.
I’m trying to create a virtual USB for using Garmin Basecamp with my purchased Gamin maps, and several sources pointed me to JaVaWa Device Manager to help the process along.

curious about POI file likes or pet peeves
If you use the POI files directly as downloaded, what do you like or dislike about them when using them on your Nuvi or other units?

Not enough storage for map update: where is the option to manually select regions?
I thought in the past Garmin Express would give you the option to download only certain areas like west, east, etc. I don't recall seeing that option anymore.
Am I missing something?










Custom waypoint icons on routes?
I've collected a number of custom waypoint icons and included them in my Custom POIs. These were sent to my DriveSmart 61 using Garmin POI Loader. That all worked well.
