Coordinates on a Favorite

Awhile back, I created and submitted a POI file for Air Museums in Texas. I drove by one of the sites at 70 mph on the freeway this afternoon and tapped the "car" and told it to save the coordinates and of course, named the site. My question is this, can I find the coordinates in that Favorite so that I can send in an update for the POI file?

Thanks,

Bill

Tracks in Mapsource

I have a Nuvi 255W. When I upload the data into Mapsource there is a tab called 'tracks' which contains all the data of where I have been what time speed etc...

How can i delete the tracks on my Nuvi so this info is not there anymore?

Thanks

NUVI 680 Memory

I've looked all over and can't seem to find the memory size of a Garmin 680. Anyone know where this might be found?

Thanks!

Slow down!

If this has been asked before, please accept my apologies, but I didn't see any other posts relating to it on my search.

On several of my major streets, my Nuvi posts the speed limit of the road I'm on. Great feature! Is it possible to have it sound an alert if I'm driving over the speed limit to encourage me to slow down?

Not recognising memory card

I have a Garmin Nuvi 750 and just bought a memory card for it. I formatted it in my card reader and put some music on it. The Garmin does not recognize it. What am I doing wrong?
Thank you.

I have been loading POI's on my 750. When do you need to worry about putting so many on it, that it affects the performance of the unit? So far I have 125,468.

I recently lost everything on my hard drive. I don't remember having any trouble seting POI Loader up the last time...But. I am tring to "select where to save Points of Interest to: I chose MapSource (advanced).

Garmin is the greatest

I know it's been said many times in the past, but I am now a believer. My 14-month old nuvi 660 stopped acquiring satellites a week ago. I upgraded the firmware, tried all the easy stuff, finally called Garmin. They had me do a hard reset, no change. They gave me an RMA, I immediately sent the 660 to them. I got a "newly overhauled" unit back yesterday. Runs great!

My card is 2GB

Question 3 - Can you delete the old map data, if so, whereis the file located?

Using routes

I have a Vista HCX, When I create a route using my waypoints (e.g. home -> library -> bank -> home), and try to navigate the route using the "follow road" option, the unit keeps trying to send me to the closest section of the route instead of my next destination. For example, when I'm at the library, it tells me to go home instead of to the bank.

Can I set options so this does not happen?

How do I totally reset my Garmin nuvi 200 GPS to get rid of ALL custom POI's and even all the favorites Ive created?

Any help?
