How to transfer POI files from Garmin to my computer?
**** sorry if this is a dumb question ***
I lost all my POI files (CSV and GPX) on my computer.
The POI's are on my Garmin. How would I transfer the POI files from my Garmin back to my computer?
Thanks.

dezl 760LMT No Truck apps?
I purchased this device because it references trucking applications right out of the box. Am I missing something? Did I get bit? WHat is up with this? It's a good road unit in my pick up, but I plan on moving it into my Freightliner when it is delivered. Garmin site also says it's "Discontinued" any answers would be greatly appreciated.

Audio - Can you HEAR the directions???
For (obviously) many years I have stuck with the nüvi 760 specifically because it plays .mp3 and .aud files. I also listen to the navigation instructions (as well as the audio files) through the vehicle's stereo system via the "line out" jack on the nuvi. Sadly, my device(s) are giving me all kinds of problems.

Good Price on a NEW Garmin Driveluxe 51 LMT-S
I've been looking at the Garmin Driveluxe series for some time now. Not willing to pay the $349 price, I've been waiting for refurbs to hit the market. It appears I waited too long since refurbs are non existent and even new units are very hard to find.

Great mount for some Garmins
I bought this vent mount for a Garmin 2689 (see https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00SV2LZW6/ref=oh_aui_deta...). It woulds very well. Reviews at Amazon say it is hard to clip onto the vent but once you get the hang of it it isn't an issue.

Do you think Garmin will ever make Nuvi sized and eqiupted new models?
Some of us have hook ups for vehicles that take 7XX and 8XX Nuvi's. Be nice to see a new Model come out that would fit my Frontiers tray

Garmin Link IPhone and a Nuvi 660
Question. I’ve had Garmin Link on iPhone for a while, though I thought I attempted using it with a GPS. I think, or I wouldn’t have kept it on phone.
Today I attempted on using it with a 660.
Never read any instructions, don’t have any available. Turned on Bluetooth on 660, and then told Garmin Link to send to GPS.

Garmin Smartphone App weather warning
Is there any way to limit the distance that the SmartPhone App will send weather warnings to the GPS? Right now it sends warnings from over 100 miles away and not even in the direction I'm traveling or my destination.
I have looked in the App and on my Garmin (RV760) and can't find anything to change or set.

Garmin Monterra Replacement
Does anybody here have any thought on whether we will ever see a replacement for the Garmin Monterra? I have always wanted one, but I also always thought that they were overpriced. With Garmin no longer supporting newer versions of Android for it, it seems destined to die, much like their Garminfone and Garmin Nuvifone did.

Nuvi 1450 replacement?
After almost ten years it's time for me to retire my Garmin Nuvi 1450. What's a good replacement for it? My needs are simple: all I need is a newer model that does the same thing a 1450 does. I don't need anything fancy-schmancy; for example, I don't need bluetooth or wifi.

Install multiple maps to a SD card
I have downloaded and installed into Basecamp, OSM topo maps for several regions in the United States.
The Install Map command in Basecamp, will allow me to install only one of these maps to the SD Card at a time. When I repeat this operation with another map, the previous map is deleted from the card.
Is there a way to install all the maps to a SD Card using Basecamp?

Recent highway and state police files
I added the N Carolina, S Caroline, NJ, Vt, Maine state police and highway patrol files and then proceeded to update my poi files favorites but it errored out every time. Same result with another gpsr and another computer. On one computer, after i deleted the Maine state police file, the update of my poi files worked ok, but not on the other computer.











are the help files in Garmin deleteable in order to gain space?
After deleting the last extra few pictures I had left there, and two vehicles, after loading POI's I'm down to 33Mb in space left on the 660 internal drive...
music and maps are on SD memory card.
I've already deleted everything I can off Garmin Drive: pictures and MP3, down to one splash picture, one voice, one vehicle, and have deleted all other Help files except English....
A 2689LMT in both our cars that we love...
