The Alerts and Icon have the same name as the Rest Area POI and I used the POI Loader to install on my unit. Today was the 1st time that I have used my new Garmin as I was traveling up I-75 in Ohio.

While strolling across a Sheraton hotel's car park, I discovered that I was holding my Nüvi 310 upside-down, in its leather-look Garmin case. Gravity being what it is, the Nüvi slipped out of the case and connected perfectly with my left foot ...

Have some Newbe questions please...

How much memory is on my 750?
If I add a memory card will it act as additional memory or do I have to put stuff on the card separately from the internal memory?

I have a Nuvi 660 that i use on my motorcycle. I have a cigarette lighter hook up that runs to a 12V constant hot. I use the port on the GPS that i hook to the computer to program the GPS as the way to power the unit while riding. I have noticed that it will only charge up to 2 bars even after hours of riding. Do i need to use the factory cradle and cord to make the unit charge ?

I just received a list of RedLight Cameras in my area and would like to know how do i installed them to alarm me when i get close to them, I have a 660.

Hi Factory,

I desperately need the assistance of an electrician.

I do not want to burn up some electronics but if my acessory chargers all say input of 100V-240V, can they be used on 220 Euro outlets with just an adapter plug or do I need to drop down the current from 220 to 110V? I would prefer not to fry my computer, garmin, phone, camera etc....

Thanks,
Paul

Is there a way in the 660 to set a speed alarm off if I would go over a set speed? I'm not talking about any speed traps.

First Hello to all Nuvi Buds and thanks in advance for your help and wisdom - Been unable to visit site for about a month as have been touring the country in a motorcoach with groups - here is my ?

I am a senior with a NUVI 850 and still learning about POI etc so may not understand how things work. I just returned from a short trip. I had uploaded several different POI folders using the latest Garmin POI loader. They all appeared in the Custom POI section for the NUVI. The rest areas along the interstate all showed an alert and sound. None of the others worked however.

I use my C550 both in my car and on my motorcycle. When it's on my motorcycle, I tried not to have to plug in the cigarette lighter adapter if I could (too many wires.) Today is the first time I took it out on a motorcycle trip. I fully charged it the night before and it lasted only about 2h 30 min before it shut down itself.

it would be nice to know nearest subway stops for all cities world wide organized by country.

I was browsing ebay, when I came across an ad. for a firm in the UK, that has a fixed fee Nüvi repair service.

Of all the things they say that can fix, one thing caught my eye: they claim to be able to recover from lost "Pin Codes"!!

They state that the bluetooth will not function afterwards, so that would be something to watch out for, if buying a 2nd hand unit...

I'm going to a concert tomorrow, and I would like to use my NUVI 350 to help me find my way back to my car.

Has anyone had any experience using the nuvi 350 in this way?

I seem to remember my Nuvi 200 had a Pedestrian or Bicycle or Car option.
I cant seem to find that on the 350.

Thanks!

How do I go from version 3.10 to version 3.0 on my Nuvi 760..

Can anyone help me with this?

Hi all,
