Icon and MP3 files - use

I have been a user for a couple of weeks and I used some of your POI file in a recent trip. The icon and sound, could you explain the use of them . Does it show on the map as we are travelling for the icon? Does the sound is received if we are within a certain distance from a certain point?

Red Light alert going off on the freeway

on the POI red light camera file, there are a couple of red light alerts that go off when I am on the 22 eastbound freeway (around Harbor) that go off. I think the coordinates are messed up.

How can I collect the data so that Miss POI can correct this? How do I get the coordinates? Red light camera alerts shouldnt be going off in the middle of the freeway.

Let me how to help.

My rubber came off

I thought that would get your attention!

On the suction cup mount to the Nuvi 360 there is a black disc that you stick to your car and then the section cup sticks to that.

Proximity Alerts

Do these only work when you have them selected as your destination, when a route goes close by them, or if you just have the map page up and get close to one.
So far mine only works when I have them selected as the destination

Coordinate Conversion

I am using the Web Site GPS Visualizer to obtain the coordinates for a physical address. It seems to work well. I would like to convert from a longitude-latitude to the physical address and can't seem to find a freeware program that will give me the street address. If the address included the city and the state that would be an extra. Can anyone help me with this?

Kudos to JM & Miss Poi

For having a site that works pretty fast over dial-up.

Man, I love the DSL at home...using dial-up is like the stone age.

Thank you JM & Miss Poi!

MP3 Mystery

In my zeal to try out my Nuvi 350's various functions and having only a puny 16mb SD card, I loaded a significant amount of MP3s into the Nuvi's internal MP3 folder. No problems. Everything worked fine. Now when I try to remove the existing music from the folder and replace it, the folder shows only a tiny portion of the music that is indeed on the Nuvi.

how can i make right size of icon?

i have photoshop 7.0 i try to make picture 24x24 but i dont know how to do that cuz i have to put the height and width so someone explain to me? so i can make the picture (icons)!!!? thanks!!!

GPSBabel GPX -> CSV

I just ran a conversion from KML to GPX to CSV using GPSBabel. The KML to GPX conversion went just fine. But in the GPX to CSV conversion, the software swapped the latitude and longitude values for each POI. Is there a setting I should be aware of in GPSBabel to preclude this?

Thanks.

I came across this site when doing a search for a nearby hospital.

Are the numbers the numbers you need to create a POI?

Some of the content is free.

New Forum Area

Miss POI and JM, is it possible to create a new Forum area where members could post valid articles or links to valid articles concerning vehicle safety, equipment and recalls?

Possible Tire Recall

There's an important article concerning a possible recall on tires made in China at the address below:

If you recently purchased new "imported" tires, or are thinking about it then you should read the article!
