How do you adjust the alert distance for Speed and RLC cameras Plus additional questions
I have a Garmin NAV 5 which is the same as a Nuvi665 with BMW files already loaded.
How do I confirm my RLC and Speed camera POI's are loaded?
How do I change the distance and speed alert for the POIs
How does the alert function, Is it on the map? Separate Icon? I know I can set the tone that is all I saw for adjustments.

Nuvi anomaly(ies)
Had an interesting weekend with my 2597. Planned a last minute road trip to Boston from Ottawa, ON, so went about setting up a route on the device, however, could not choose anything in Boston (or Mass). Found what I wanted under cities, selected GO, but it took a long time to calculate the route; ended up being an additional 2000km, taking me to northern Quebec, Maine and New Hanpshire.

Nuvi 2598: " Up Ahead" & Rest Areas
I particularly like the Up Ahead feature in my 2598. Initially, it worked fine. After a while, the Rest Areas feature stopped working. The other selections (ie: gas stations and restaurants) do work and continuously display changing distances. Rest Areas displays nothing. When clicked, no rest areas populate the screen.

Install map on SD card
Just tried to install 2017.2 on an SD card, however, neither Garmin Express or MapUpdater recognize the card.
Had no trouble formatting or copying necessary files from my 855.
I've done this many times before, however first time with Win10.

Nuvicam software 3.30 is out today
Today, I got email from Garmin informing me that Nuvicam software version 3.30 has fixed the iphone 6 Bluetooth connectivity issues. When I powered on my Nuvicam, I saw the message for software update. This was regarding my ticket opened with them for a year.
Updated the software but they fixed bluetooth issue in the previous release 3.20. So not sure what they did in this update?

Garmin USA / North America iPhone Map Update
Anyone know when the new Garmin map updates come out for the Garmin USA / North America iPhone app? It's still showing 2016.10 maps when 2017.20 maps are out for the Garmin GPS units. Seems to me they would release an update more frequently especially to compete with other apps like Waze, Google, MapQuest, etc.

Interesting Junction view
I've had my Garmin Nuvi 2689 for nearly a year now. I normally use it as a rolling map at work while I drive, no set route, it's just on.
I have programmed it to find places, mostly an intersection somewhere many times.
Recently I had a route programmed in and saw an odd (to me) junction view along the route.
For one major "turn" it showed two different junction views, first this ...

Any comments/suggestions out there in Garminville?

nGroove 6000g CD Slot Mount For Garmin Nuvi And StreetPilot GPS Enter Coupon Code: 'Freedom' For Free USA Shipping
Recently, we had some discussion about Alternative Mount Ideas. Coincidentally, my wife was riding in my car with me recently and she complained about not being able to adjust the air vent because I was using Garmin Air Vent Mount to hold my Garmin Nuvi 3597.

Garmin vehicle was flying!
This weekend my 2599 exhibited a strange behavior.
Rather than showing my vehicle traveling a street, it depicted the vehicle as floating to the right (about 40')of the road as tho it was flying.
After a off/on cycle, it behaved normally.
Just wondering how prevalent this is?

POI Loader won't convert audio files
Latest version of POI Loader has decided it doesn't like my audio files (neither MP3 nor WAV versions). All the audio files came from here on POI Factory.
Thoughts?

BaseCamp and GPX files
For some reason my MapSource right now is slower than Molasses.
I tried to open some GPX files I have on my Desktop but I cannot find any way to load them into BaseCamp.
It's probably so easy but I can't see it.
