Is the cord for a 2595 replaceable? The one to the dash withe the antenna?

The blind factory preloaded icons on my Garmin DriveSmart 60LMTHD are irritating me. Those gas and restaurant icons without brand icon. Is there a way to hide them? I do not need to see that a restaurant is coming if I do not know what brand. I do not need to know that a gas station is coming if I have full tank. The icons cover streets what I do not like.

Garmin has updated Nuvicam's software to version 3.50 few days ago.
There is not much detail about the update.
"Change History
Changes made from version 3.40 to 3.50:
Improved software stability."

Went to Update GE today (From V 4.3.0.0 to V4.4.0.0)...and I got this Message:

(Path) GarminExpressInstaller.exe cannot start or run due to incompatibility with 64 Bit versions of Windows.
Please contact the Software Vendor and ask if a 64 bit Windows Compatible version is available.

I'm not doing anything different than ever before!!!

I finally sent it as a bug to Garmin Folks...

I recently set up a Garmin Nuvi 3597 for my mother in law and set up on for my sister in law yesterday. Anyway, that made me wonder what my fellow POI members are doing in this regard. If you have a Garmin Nuvi 3597:

-Do You Use The Custom Dashboard?

-If So, What Do You Select In Each Field?

-Do You Like And Use Auto Zoom Or Have You Disabled It?

For now, my selections are:

Ok all you Garmin experts. I have done a lot of map updates, and I have never had the update change my system settings. When I upgraded to this map right before a trip to North Georgia and Tennessee, I wished that I had not have done the upgrade. It changed all my settings, voice and preferences.

I'm STILL KICKING MYSELF BUT IT IS WHAT IT IS. It was fun but not a necessity. I miss it already. Stick with what little I knoe or try a new adventure?

eg... I have noticed a POI for the Dunkin Donuts in Crofton, MD is about 1/2 mile off... I'm ASSuming I can go to the proper spot, save the proper GPS coordinates, then correct the Excel spreadsheet at home and save... but that's selfish... should I detail and send that correction to the most recent author...?

I am trying to find the location of the recent files on a Garmin 57LM. Can anyone help me. Thanks for your help

Here's a site with links to some good ones:

Since yesterday my 2597 only starts intermittently. I was using it most of the day, however after I picked my wife up from work, it wouldn't turn on. A few hours later after being stopped for awhile, it turned on again; later not. Wouldn't start first time this morning, but did later, then not again.

Is there any reason Garmin, and others, cannot start using the Galileo satellites? They have 18 up and plan to go to 30.

Garmin Express is showing a software update for Time Zone file 19.00 for my 3 devices that use the time zone map file. File size of new gmaptz.img file is 589 KB (603,136 bytes).

For PC:
Garmin began rolling out Garmin Express v4.4.0 for the PC today. If you would like to upgrade to the latest version, Check for Updates to Express on the Settings page within the Express application. This version includes the following changes:

• Minor improvements and bug fixes.

For Mac:

I'm using window 10 to load wave flies. I use SOX.exe wont load on POI. exe.

Has anyone changed the ICONS on the Up Ahead feature?
Say, if you want to choose a specific gas station like "shell" or a specific restaurant like "McDonalds"

In the up ahead feature:

* To search for a specific business or category, select a service, select Custom Search, and enter the name of the business or category.
Select Done.

ok, I'm not a rookie at this, but hopefully someone might have a suggestion...

I've had my alerts working before... I have the latest POI Loader... sox.exe (older version from 1/29/2008 {14-0-1}) is in the C:/Program Files (x86)/Garmin/POI Loader directory... all .wav files are meticulously checked and triple checked to match the file names of the .csv files...

This was actually told me by a neighbor... I'll post the entire story because it's that interesting.....

First, do a search to find this address on a GPS: 440 Crystal Tree Drive, Waynesville NC

If you then scan the map, you'll see that Crystal Tree Drive has 2 connections to Ned's Cove Road... One below us after 4 switchbacks, and one above us, off of Chipmunk Circle.
