Garmin talk

I am trying to enter a Alphanumeric address in to my Garmin Nuvi 2729 LMT, just can not get it. I do understand you can enter the coordinates if you have them but sometimes you just have the address. this is an example of a address I am trying to enter. S63 W16147 College Ave, Muskego, WI 53150.
I have tried to enter it like S63W16147 but the GPS is just confused. Any help would be nice.

Happy fathers day to those who are or might be LOL.

Just added a new Garmin GPS to the stable this weekend, but this one had a rather unique accessory : a motorcycle.

How do you set your activity profile in Base Camp where the profile activity is driving by default?

Every time I create a route and look at the directions I get hiking as the default. I got to be missing something,

Thanks,

This is probably a silly question, but Garmin advertises some of their models as "not relying on cellular signals" How does that differ from other models that do not make this claim? I'm buying someone who lives in an area with very spotty cellular reception a GPS as a gift and am unsure whether or not this would be an advantage. I thought ALL GPS units relied on satellites.

Thanks.

I have a new Garmin 70 LMT to replace my 2798 LMT custom install in my dashboard with fascia. In the 2798 model I could have a usb cable routed through my glove box for updates from the laptop while also having the charger / FM traffic receiver connected in a separate port. (That model used micro usb instead of the slightly larger mini but regardless...).

I just got a DriveSmart 60LMTHD, how can we make a full backup because the system file are not shown as with the other GPS. The DriveSmart is not shown as a Drive like the other GPS were. Only secondary files are shown.

I say "almost" because I blew $6.99 back for Priority Mail.

I have been watching the 2797 refurb (and others) on Amazon for months. The VA just a bunch of $$ they owed me after an audit, so I jumped.

my ( refurbished ) 2757 started acting up, kept rebooting at main screen or when touching view map icon . I just did hard reset where it asked me us , English lang , so on . it seemed to start right up without previous problems . was low on battery so I have it charging now . anyone else with this problem . I just updated with new software and maps .

Hi. I am new to this whole gps thing. My wife and I are getting older and would to take some driving trips to see the country. I found this forum (which I like very much) and followed it for a while until I made up my mind about which gps to buy. I bought a Garmin 2589lmthd because it seemed to have all the features I wanted and could afford. OK so now the problem.

I have a question regarding my nuvi 3597 and memory space!

I tried to do an update of some (not the maps) which don't complete! I get a message stating that "INTERNAL STORAGE IS ALMOST FULL. YOU MAY WANT TO PURCHASE A MEMORY CARD FOR THIS DEVICE TO ENSURE SUFFICIENT SPACE FOR FUTURE UPDATES"!

I DO have a memory card installed in the 3597! My stats are as follows.......

Hello!

I am a total dummy when it comes to POIs and my Garmin. I have a Garmin nuvi 3597! A while ago, I loaded POI files into the 3597.

Is there a way to delete ALL of the POI files from the 3597 that I have loaded in the past, so I can start fresh?

Any help would be GREATLY appreciated!

Thank you in advance!

In addition to taking his wife and my Garmin to Disney World, he also took my grandkids.

All I got was his darn dog for the next 10 days ... walk, urinate, defecate, pick it up ... repeat as needed, rain or shine, day or night.

Pretty much the dog and I do the same thing ... except she won't pick up after me.

I have the redlight camera poi seetup as a tourguide with audio and I get nothing. I have seen one red light camera image but that is it. I installed the sox.exe file in the garmin dictory, I am using windows 7. I have also tried the trial version of the garmain red light camera poi and I get no audio no indication that I have approached a red light camera.

Hi. a week ago i tried to update my Nüvi 3597 through garmin express, GE told me that it could not recognize the card and the update was cancelled.

I went on a 10 hour trip this past weekend from Florida to South Carolina. On the return trip around Atlanta, I decided to test the accuracy of the directions of the Garmin vs my phone's Google Maps. I did have the 2017.2 version of maps.

I have 2016.2 on my 3790 and Garmin Express tells me I have the current map. I really don't know why I don't have 2017.1 on there. I thought I had upgraded to that. Any ideas how to solve this?

Need help. For the last 6 months I have not been able to run Garmin Express on my Mac laptop. Every time I try I keep getting a red bar on the top of the page that says "Sorry, we're having a problem communicating with our servers". I contacted Garmin and they walked me through to make sure all my settings were correct and then said they don't know how to fix my problem.

A few weeks ago, when I fired up Base Camp, I get a popup to update Base Camp, the exact verbiage is

BaseCamp 4.6.2.0 is ready for install. Details "Fixed an issue displaying route elevation graphs .
