Google Maps
Anyone have comments on Google Maps for navigation? Haven't tried it yet. I've seen articles that indicate it has some drawbacks, like 1) Contacts file not accessible, and 2) serious turn-by-turn errors--like Apple's Maps.
Good to see we now have a choice though!

Using a wifi only iPad tethered to iPhone with Maps
It works - but not all that well...
If one wants to use a wifi only iPad with a navigation app - an external GPSr is a must - as is an app that stores its maps on the device.

Problems with POIloader using Snow Leopard
Is anyone else having issues using POIloader on Snow Leopard? I installed it from the App Store but whenever I point it at CSV files from POI Factory, it just hangs on 'initializing'.
Conversely, I spin up a windows virtual machine and the POIloader install there works just fine and only takes a second or two to process the files.

How to Import a Nuvi's Map to Base camp?
I'm new to Base Camp (and Mac's).
I've found that the "base map 2.0" that comes with Base Camp can not search street addresses.
With my Nuvi 760 plugged-in I can search street addresses with the City Navigator NA map that resides on the Nuvi.
This City Navigator map on the Nuvi is unlocked, and I can see and use it in Base Camp when the device is plugged-in to the Mac.

Slow Mac USB -- Crazy Idea -- Feedback Requested
With two Garmins (255W, 1450LM), three Macs, including a 2011 MacBook Air, and two operating systems (10.6 and 10.7.4 now), I have NEVER been able to connect a Garmin via USB at 2.0 speeds. Every time I'm limited to USB 1.1 speeds (12 megabits per second). I've used different cables, powered hubs, no hubs, etc. It's always slow USB 1.1. Keep reading...

Garmin Alerts | How Do I Get Voice Alerts Using Wav Files For Units Without Mp3 Capability using a Mac?
I just got a Nuvi 2595 and discovered that my custom POI alerts that I created for my Nuvi 760 no longer worked. It turns out that this is because the 2595 does not support the mp3 format. However, custom POIs alerts will work if you use the wav format instead of mp3.
This forum post - http://www.poi-factory.com/node/25730 - explains what you need to do if you are using windows.

End of the Road for us 32 bit guys?
Looks like Apple may be sheading another generation of Mac machines. Lion eliminated folks who use Rosetta, now indications are that Mountain Lion will eliminate all the 2007 Mac's using 32 bit EFI firmware--and that includes me. Not gonna buy another Mac (have 4 now) just to run Mountain Lion.
Maybe Apple will issue a firmware upgrade just for us old fogeys...

Invisible files
I know there is an easy way to expose them but I can not remember what the program is with SL on a Mac. I also see this has been a dead area recently so I'm coming here to ask. I may go to Apple discussions also but I thought I'd start here.

Garmin 2012.3 Update (troubles on Mac)
Garnin needs to hire programers that know a little about Macs. It is a giant pain to get to this update. It won't come in at all on my laptop. It's now downloading on my iMac.. It kept wanting to download the special programs to download the maps and they wouldnt open or anything on the iBook. Finally I got the single time program to work on the iMac. I have no idea what the problem was.

Jobs Resigns
I hereby resign as CEO of Apple. I would like to serve, if the Board sees fit, as Chairman of the Board, director and Apple employee.

It'll be interesting to see where Apple is heading now.







Extra Poi Editor for Mac?
Is there an Extra POI Editor for Mac users? If so, where is the download site; if not, are there work arounds...?
Thanks for your thoughts.
