Hi

I just got my garmin330 the other day. I have inputted an address and street name and it used to show. Now it only displays just the street name with no address when inputted. I deleted a saved location, not sure if that has something to do with it. any feedback would help? thanks!!!

One Week NUVI Newbie - Some Questions

Well, been playing with my Nuvi 360 and it on many occassions has me turning left when I know where I am going is on the right and vice versa. Went to Chili's this afternoon and it was sending me to one of the Chili's that moved locations about 2 years ago. Am I doing something wrong or are these things wrong that often?

Question about Nuvi 350 and saving location

Okay so, if I am looking at the map and I see where I want to go and I "click it"--it shows the route/city/whatever, then I get three choices: back, set location, Go. I don't want to go there, but set it as my favorite--how do I do that? Do you get what I am saying?

Thanx,

Very Newbish Question

Hello everyone,

I have a very noobish question and I may have some more later. What is Mapsource? Is this the program that has maps? A program that lets help you make a backup of the maps (Can't you just copy and paste the data from GPS into a folder?) What is difference between Mapsource and EasyGPS?

Thank you,

Where to Buy Garmin "City Navigator Europe NT v9" DVD?

Is there an on-line discount store for the Garmin City Navigator Europe NT DVD? I have found several places that sell the standard (non-compressed) version, but not the NT version. Is Garmin the only source to buy it?

What is your Nuvi missing?

Over the years, I've migrated from a Magellan receiver hooked to my old Palm m505 to a Garmin eTrex Vista to a Garmin GPSMAP60CS to the Garmin Nuvi 660.
Everytime I get a new unit, I use it for a while and think "This is much better than the last unit, but now I wish it had......"

Updating Nuvi 350

Hello everyone,

I am kinda worried updating (firmware) my Nuvi 350 because you know sometimes when they try to fix one thing, they end up messing another thing. Has anyone found any messups with the new firmware?

Thanx,

nuvi 660/BT phone/Aux Out

I pair my nuvi 660 with my Samsung Blackjack. For sound, I have the audio out jack of the nuvi connected to an auxilliary input of my vehicle's stereo. My question is this: Is anyone else doing this and does the person on the other end of the call hear themselves talking?

Nuvi 360 Window Mount Help Needed

Is there a secret to getting the mount attached to the arm of the window holder? I have pushed, pulled and everything and can't get it to attach. I can't get the ball of the arm to insert into the mount on the Nuvi. Nothing in the book tells you how to do this. I know it must be a simple step I am missing. I love the unit but want to attach it to my windshield but can't. Thanks.

Nuvi 350 my first experience on highway and a bit wierd one

So I finally got to use my Nuvi 350 on the highway. It was doing good (we were supposed to reach our destination at 5:30 pm), but we took a shortcut which was not on the map. After we got to the part where the GPS knew where we were, it changed the ETA to 9:01 am!!!

Nuvi 350 battery charging

How long does it take to charge Nuvi 350? I charged it about 12 hours and the charge lightning bolt on the battery sign did not go away. Isn't supposed to go away when it is charged? Or is 12 hours! not enough for first time charge?

Thank you,

Nuvi 350 wierdness

Okay so I wanted to see if there were any Best Buys in Durham, NC and I know that there were, but didn't know exactly where. Well, I asked the nuvi to find best buy stores in Durham (not my current location), and it pointed out all Best Buy stores from Georgia to New Jersey, but I did NOT find ONE in Durham or Raliegh. Whats up with that?

Garmin C580 - MSN reception

Nuvi 680 - MSN cable

I have one of the new Nuvi 680's with the MSN service. I've been trying to buy an extra MSN cable (makes it easier for me swapping the 680 from car to car to motorcycle). So far I haven't been able to find anyone that has these - including Garmin. Anyone have any ideas?

Nuvi 360 Questions

I am awaiting the delivery of my first ever Nuvi - I have several questions. My biggest is - if you set it up to go to a location and you stop (remove it) and then put it back - does it continue to direct you?

Estimated Time of Arrival Calculation

I am interested in how Garmin calculates arrival time (ETA). I have a nuvi 350 and recently took a trip of about 300 miles with all kinds of roads. There was some interstate, city streets with stoplights, state highways with stoplights, and state highways with curves (max 40 mph). I traveled as close to the posted speed limit as possible for the whole trip.
