|
|
Can someone help? I have a nuvi 300 that came with the speedcamera's preloaded and wiped them off when i downloaded the new POI. I have browsed the forum and have done the following
1) Unzip the files i have downloaded.
2) use POILoader to load the unzipped contents onto your Sat Nav.
Also a full guide http://www.pocketgpsworld.com/uksafetycameras-garmin.php which was on the download page.
This has not worked! I have downloaded the latest software for the nuvi 300 and it seems to load in POI no problem.
My computer is running windows VISTA is this the problem?
Where are these files going on the Nuvi memory as I cannot find them.
CAN SOMEONE HELP PLEASE |

Please clarify exactly what did and didn't work as your posting is very confusing (you state it didn't work and then that you loaded the POI with no problem) and lacks any detail of what "has not worked"
Also double posting causes further confusion as the information get split up over more than one thread. |

What actually happens when you try? They should appear under the same list as the local shops. |

can you confirm they are all loaded at the same time? i.e. shops etc and speed cams?

Guy's I think I have cracked it. (ater your input) I could not figure out how to load the 2 together.
I've just unzipped BOTH speedcamera's & the other POI into the same folder (Doh) and then loaded it to the memory card (using the POI Loader). Upon booting up the Nuvi both types of POI have loaded off the card onto the Nuvi and it seems to be working.
Im not going to change it now but would the same have happened if I'd have loaded it straight onto the Nuvi memory? (this is what I did at first but just loading on the speed camera's not the other POI) |

I see. Probably should have mentioned that when you use POILoader it wipes out all the current POIs so you have to load them all again if any change or are updated or removed. |
