Garmin talk

I've loaded several POI (csv) files without a problem, but have a question about a speed camera file that I downloaded from this site. Can someone explain the following line:

-111.96098,33.42534,Speed Camera 40 MPH .02300,xx xxxxx xxxxxxxx

So I downloaded the Burger King POI to get started as my first custom POI. I see the file on my 760 when connected to PC. I also can pick a BK from the list at: extras> custom POI menu and it will take me to the BK. I thought that after loading a POI like the Burger King one, I would see some sort of marker at the site of every BK I drove by.

Been having a few issues lately.

First is when I go into USB mode, I get a message that there might be a problem with my files on the device or disc. I get an option to scan and fix or do nothing. I have usually clicked on do nothing as I have not had any problems before. Question is would I have any problems doing a scan and fix?

Hi,

How do I change the alert sounds of POI's. I've read "Hornbyp's guide to setting alerts with POI Loader" but it is still confusing to me.

does anyone have one of these??!! how do you like it

Hi,
I recently got a Garmin Nuvi 350 and the first time I used it, it worked perfectly. But after I updated the maps to the 2009 version, I lose satellite signal a lot. Can someone tell me how I can fix that?

Hi - I went to upgrade my Father-In-Law's Garmin StreetPilot 2820 this past weekend with the CD I bought from Best Buy but XP doesn't seem to recognize the device. Has anyone else seen such a problem before?

Please excuse a beginner's question. I have a nuvi 350 and have loaded the NPR tower, Rest Areas, and KFC onto my device.
Rest Areas has proximity alerts and I do not think the other 2 do.
While driving what do I need to do to have the contents appear on my route map? Is it "automatic"? or do I need to "invoke" them in some way.

With appreciation

Has anyone had a problem with their GTM 20, (or any other car charger for that matter) where it apparently applies too much power?

My apologies if this has already been discussed but I need some help.

I have a Nuvi 260w and have found that I'd like to have a couple of features that I didn't think I'd use originally.

I want a unit that has bluetooth, speaks street names and maybe the traffic feature. I am looking at the 265WT and the 760. Any suggestions on either of them?

I just loaded the Garmin City Navigator NT 2009 Map update on my Garmin C340. As memory on the set was low, the map update is probably loaded on the SD card.

Now when I start typing an address, the next screen shows two rows:
- 2008 NT All
- Ontario, Newfoundland

I have to select one of them to go to next step.

I am just wondering

Purchased a GXM30 to use with my 7200. I use the unit mainly when towing a large 5th wheel toyhauler. I had a couple of questions regarding service.

1. Am I better off with the Garmin or Navigon Lifetime traffic service

2. How much is the weather service?

3. What is the best way to subscribe to get traffic and weather?

Thanks

There are a lot of voices on my 750 in different languages which I will never use. I am wondering if anyone has tried to delete them and if that has caused any problems. Seems like a lot of space taken up for nothing.

Will they be loaded back on every time I do a web update?

Ok here's another question I have on how would you make the speed camera alert only alert you if you are driving over the posted speed!!

Does anyone know if there is a demo of how the traffic info gets displayed on the Nuvi's?

my 60csx seems to lock up hard randomly when alerting to red light cameras and showing a turn in the zoomed up view at the same time.
anyone else see lockups with red lights and zooming using cn2009nt ??

There have been many posts regarding to the new Nuvi xx5T series' free traffic ads ... Here are some screen shots I took with my 755T

I have a 750 Nui mounted on the dash - At night, I et a terrible glare right in my line of vision - I can see the screen as well in the glare as I can on the actual screen - Are there any product suggestions that could cure this?

Walmart.com has the Nuvi 785T for $560....
