I violated the prime directive if it ain't broke don't fix it today and tried to update my new Nuvi using the dreaded Webupdater. Thanks Nick BUT the version that was on the device was 2. Since the is new, I cannot tell from either Perry's pahge or Garmin which porior version might be acceptable. I violated the prime directive if it ain't broke don't fix it If you updated without a backup, you violated two.
I don't think Perry has anything for the This seems to take a long time 60 seconds at least. Once the pre boot mode message disappears release the power button and your device will perform some activites to recover from the above problem. If all else fails, you could always contact Garmin for a new one. I appreciate the thought about the reset. While the display flickered, it returned to the "System Software Missing" screen and wouldn't reboot.
The also has a reset button at the bottom of the unit but that merely turns the unit off. Darndest thing. Frankly I attribute the problem to the updater; seems to be the cause for a lot of problems reported in the blogs. Upload waypoints to your GPS and print a matching map out to take with you into the field.
Once you reach that limit, your GPS can't hold any more data. They can then download as much data as possible onto their GPS leaving some room for GPS data collection out in the field. When they get back, they use ExpertGPS to upload all of their Garmin waypoints onto their computer and save it. Once they've backed up the new data from their GPS, they can clear the memory again, keeping their GPS ready for their next trip.
These are actual scale topographic maps from the US Geological Survey, giving you much more terrain detail than the maps that came with your Garmin. This ability to toggle back-and-forth between several views of your GPS data is unique to ExpertGPS, and is one of its most popular features.
ExpertGPS comes preloaded with all the line patterns and cartographic styles you need to draw highways, railroad tracks, transmission lines, streams, and more. And the waypoint and track style editors let you create your own map symbols, change track colors, and customize exactly how your GPS and map data is drawn. ExpertGPS can do it 5x faster! Visit the Icon library and download the desired icons for your POI files and put them into the folder created in Step 2.
Unzip the folder containing the program SOX. Select the SOX. This must be the same folder that has the program POILoader.
EXE should now be copied to the folder. Match the file name to the ICON file. These file names must match exactly with the exception of the file extension. NOTE: there can only be one period in a file name. A period in a file name marks the beginning of the file extension. Icon file names can only end in BMP. Press Next.
The program will ask the location of the files to be loaded. Select the measurement units used for your NUVI. Feet and Miles per hour or Meters and Kilometers.
If you do not see a custom icon or hear the custom alert sound for a Custom POI that successfully loaded, it is most likely because you have a double file extension two periods in one or more of the file names. Open Windows Explorer.
Select Folder Options. Select VIEW.
