Garmin talk

I have had my Garmin StreetPilot 2730 for about a year now and I loaded up a number of POIs. Most of them from POI Factory, but some that I created. What is the maximum number of POIs that I can put on this? I realize that it isn't probably a finite number, but how do I tell if I have used say 10% or 50% or 75% of the memory?

I created a POI file with 75 POIs in it and uploaded it to my Legend Cx. When I select it only 50 POIs are displayed. Is there a limit of 50 entries total or just a display limit of 50 with the other 25 waiting in the wings, so to speak?

Thanks,
Bill

Hello,

I bought one of those Kenwood Garmin in dash units and want to load POI on them, is it basicly the same procedure, just load it on the card and put the card in the unit ? Is there anyway to get it on the unit with out ripping my dash appart again to get the unit out ? maybe thru actuall kenwood receiver ? thanks in advance for the help.

I like dirt roads and we have quite a few around here. Many are in great condition and even allow fairly high speeds. They make for great drives off the beaten, paved path.

I have a Garmin C580, updated.

anybody knows anything about external antenna, is it worth it? I read reviews on amazon.com and some people love it and some people say it's useless. Any toughts?

I purchased my c330 at the end of August/07, but i'm not sure if I have the lastest maps. When I registered my GPS on garmins site, its says I have this.

City Navigator North America NT v8 Limited, Deluxe All Regions, Apr 06

I have a Nuvi 750 on order and am anticipating its delivery in October or November. In preparation, I am trying to creat a route of a vacation I will be taking in Mexico next January.

At times my c530 won't work from it's own battery power even it it have been charging for a while. Seems like it does this after downloading from a computer. Anyone else ever had this problem?

Hi all, first post, so please pardon my stupidity.

I have sent wrong maps to my Nuvi 250, how can I erase all the maps other than the base maps “City navigator North America NT8”? When the unit starts I get “can’t unlock maps message”. After that message I can use the North America maps. I am looking a way to remove “can’t unlock” message.

Thanks in advance. NS

Hello,

I have uploaded a .csv file on my Nuvi 670 using the Garmin POIloader.
According to the tool I installed successfully 250 POI's.
But in the menu "Custom POIs" are only a couple available - maybe 15 or so.
I tried also other files with the same problem.

I hope somebody can help.

Thanks a lot in advance.

I just purchased a new 350 for the wife last week. It has the v7 maps. I know I can call Garmin and get a free update to the v8 maps.

I own a 360 with v7 maps. Can I use the same updates for both units?

My Nuvi 360 keeps losing sattelite reception on a clear day, and also at times cannot aquire satteleites when I turn it on.

I have reset the unit using the reset button.

Any help appreciated.

Hello Forum,

I know that there are different kinds of maps out there, but what kinds of maps can I purchase that would be compatible with my Nuvi 350 ?

Thanks.

Hello Forum,

I am new to this forum and this is my first post. The last time I updated my Nuvi 350 (I think I updated it to 4.50), my user data disappeared. Is there a way to back up user data like recent selections, and personal POI's ?

I just finished updating the system software on my nuvi 350, using Garmin WebUpdater 2.0.1, to version 4.90 from 4.60.

After updating, WebUpdater 2.0.1 is no longer able to find the nuvi which is connected. The error message is "No devices were found. Please ensure that your device is connected and turned on and try again."

Another MapSource Update:

MapSource software version 6.13.4 as of September 26, 2007

Changes made from version 6.13.2 to 6.13.4:
*Fixed an issue with displaying the product name of some map products.
*Fixed an issue with receiving data from removable media on Windows Vista 64-bit.

So I was wondering if there was any way to change the display order of the button selections in the where to menu on my nuvi 360,.....

Are there any programs that will allow your GPS to show real time weather situation?..
thanks

I tried to look for a replacement online but could not find any.l I also tried to look up in the manual as to how I replace it but it says nothing. Moreover it gives a warning like "to preserve battery life try not to expose it to too much sun or heat" How are you supposed to do that without an external antenna?
