Hi, everyone:

I need ur help! Because I messed up my tomtom one map from my sd card. I deleted something from the sd card. after I turned on my gps, the map didn't show the street. only Blank screen. even I try to find some poi, it cant show anything on the screen. Pls help!
Thank you!

I’m interested in the topic "" Solution to make the "dialing" icon appear in gpx files...""
And the replay from the traveler .. so I downloaded “ McCormick & Schmick's Seafood Restaurant.gpx “ file posted by the traveler to see how he edit his files.. soo I got the following problems ..
1- tried to convert the file to .csv format using GPXtoPOI program .. but couldn’t converted .

Data Base to load states quit working after 3 weeks any help RT

hellooo there...

I’m confused about the poi file format .csv and .gpx for garmin …
I know both formats used to list the poi but what is the main difference between them ??
Why to use .csv not the .gpx ?? or the other way ..
Which one is better with less error..??
If I want to go for a file with huge no. of poi which format shall I go with..??

New GPS owner, and confused. I drive a motor coach and it would be helpful if I could add files to my GPS which will result in specific "points of interest" (to me) being depicted along the interstate as I drive. I have created some waypoints using EasyGPS and uploaded them to the POI folder on my C550.

I installed some custom poi's from this site and after done the installed poi's from Garmin are gone. Where can I find that file, it is not on the disk that came with the unit? I have a 660.

Here's some interesting news...

Some addresses just don't take me to the exact spot I want to go to. When I do arrive at the intended destination I save it to my garmin C330. My question is. Is there any way to get a latitude and longitude? I want these exact numbers to add to my custom poi files.

Also where do I download .bmp Icons.

I bought it last week and had a blast using it over the weekend.

I'm getting desperate! I was going to post a message here on POI Factory yesterday listing a FREE site I had found with an enormous number (I think they said over 5 million) of geocodes for different U.S. locations. I need help in finding that site again.

Here's a scary article about the increase in GPS thefts from cars, even as prices fall. As a long time resident of Philadelphia I've learned not to even leave a few cents of loose change visible. The article mentions that even the telltale suction cup ring is tipping off some thieves to go on a scavenger hunt in your car.

Newest Costco price for Nuvi 360 is $399.00 plus shipping and handling.

I bought a TomTom 720 but it won't work with my VX8300 Verizon phone. I called TomTom and they told me Verizon phones will not work because Verizon does not allow it. Any different thoughts on it before I return the 720? I live in New jersey.

Hi all,

A few screen shots taken on my trip to South Africa.
May be of interest as per some of the topics in the forums.

- Flight screenshots.
- Map-misalignment screenshots.

Hope they are worthwhile and of some interest.

WOW!when I told one of the supervisors of one of the dept.'s I take care all their vehicles about the GPS,like the C330 I have which the price I paid got the Companies attention,and using it as a tool for saftey because you do not have to look at maps and hit someone from the rear for looking for direction(I never did),and saves a lot of time too.

So, the first weekend I have my nuvi 680, I had to go out to a wedding in New Jersey (near Cherry Hill) We're playing around with the GPS, and my fiancee was in the mood for a Starbucks, since they have soy milk hippie food stuff. I bring up the attractions list, type in Starbucks. The closest one was something like 97 miles away. So we gave up.

This article will say it all for me.
