Problem you will run into next is City Navigator is not free, the cheapest copy is about $60. Good news is it will come with Mapsource. It would be nice if Garmin had some simple software that just allowed you to send a route to your device. (sounds like that is all you want to do) If you...

Unfortunately, resolving your driver issue as to why mapsource doesn't see your Garmin may be your best solution. It might as simple as loading new USB drivers, or even trying a different USB port. I already provided a mapsource compatible route in your other thread, maybe you missed it. Link...

I have used roadtrip (mac version of mapsource) to load maps onto my father in laws garmin 765t I am sure the mapsource issue is a windows, driver, usb, etc... issue The website and owners manual both list that it works with mapsource. Where do you see that is does not work with mapsource...

This should be pretty close. Unzip the file and import it into mapsource or roadtrip to send the routes to your Garmin. Link File name: CopB8.GPX Contains two routes: -Directions to 1 Lake Ave, Colorado Springs, CO 80906 -Directions to Estes Park, CO It worked fine transferring it to my...

Not sure how many of you may have a Zumo 660 but I stumbled upon an important update. "Today, Garmin released a free, mandatory GPS software update to correct a software issue that has been discovered to cause select GPS devices to repeatedly attempt to update GPS firmware, and then either shut...

You bought the lifetime maps and they won't work with your Garmin 2730 (I have two 2730 refurbs) or Garmin thinks your 2730 is registered to someone else? or Both? All can be fixed by an email or phone call to Garmin. Sucks it happens, but it is easily fixed.

The unfortunate problem with that is when fireman Timmy tries that he's labeled a sea lawyer; when a Chief does it he is "trying" to fix the problem. With the frequency of coming across gate guards who let the title "Federal Law Enforcement Officer" feed their ego it becomes a periodic cycle...

I wonder how it detects a vehicle? Sounds like a great option for a gate but I am curious about the garage door application when my phone is in constant range of the garage door at home. i.e. The UPS truck (a vehicle) pulls into my driveway and my bluetooth paired phone is on the kitchen...

You can get a visual look at the 2010 maps without buying them here. (Just click on the map to open a new pop-up window) If you need some custom searches I have 2010 North America, Europe and Mexico on my computer. Edit: Sorry Skooter, I didn't see your post. Now you have two offers for help :)

If your definition of POI (Points of Interest) is the same as mine: Restaurants, gas stations, golf courses, etc... Then yes, they are updated just like everything else. Garmin uses the same Navteq database that just about everyone does. But...if a business goes out of business the last thing...

Yes their web site sucks. Link

If you follow this link and submit the updates yourself you will see the changes on google maps, yahoo, and mapsource as soon as a few months. Garmin updates will most likely take until the 2011 mapsource set.

No (for the most part), each map update you buy will generate a unique unlock code that is only good for one unit. If you want to update the second one you will have to pay for another unlock code. Not always as bad as buying two complete copies (price wise) but still much more than a single...

I have the same ones as well but you do have to take the side panels off to attach the mounting brackets. I am very happy with them.

You can report inaccuracies to Navteq here I moved to a well established neighborhood (contains homes that have been here 20+ years) and all of the mapping programs and GPS units would try and take you down non existent roads that carry power lines. One of my neighbors who has lived here 30...

Glad to see another happy "G" owner. Nice picture!

Kyle, I do eat barbecue and will gladly take you up on your offer for some food and possibly some riding one day soon. I am busy in/out of town for the next few weeks but May is wide open. We will have to set something up. If you can swing the time for WFO this year it is almost in our...

If a picture is worth a thousand words, how much is a video worth? How to post a photo from webshots 1. Find your desired photo in your webshots account 2. Click on copy the code 3. Choose your desired photo size 4. Copy image location code 5. Insert image into post by pasting the image...

OK, it's "Tomorrow" where are the pictures? P.S. Congratulations and welcome to the club, I am probably the closest FJR owner to you. Are you going to WFO?
