Where has my speed camera POI file gone?

Hi all. I have a Garmin 310T but haven't used it for a couple of months. I am sure I used to be able to select the safety camera POI file and get all the cameras in a list, starting with the closest. It appears to have gone. Am I doing something wrong? I have updated the latest camera database, but it didn't help. Please help!

Usually under something like

My Locations, Custom POIs

Hi PaulB. Thanks for the quick reply. However, it isn't there. If i simulate the route, the cameras show, but I can't find the 'list'.

Are you sure these aren't the Garmin (Cyclops) Camera you are seeing?

How did you load the PGPSW Database to the Nuvi?

I use the POIloader. I DEFINITELY used to have a list of cameras/zones etc. starting with the closest to my current location, the list has gone, it is not in Custom POI's.

Which database are you using (Single File, Consolidated, Speed Zoned)?

What do you see in Custom POIs?

Do you have the Garmin Cyclops Database installed?

I used single file. I see all my other POI's i.e. ATM's, shopping etc. I haven't downloaded the cyclops to my knowledge, but then I don't know, I just expected EVERYTHING to be in the single file.

How many other POIs do you have installed?

With the Single File Database you should see an entry "pocketgps_uk_cameras" is that definately not there?

What if you load the PGPSW Database on it's own? i.e. with no other POI files.

I will try deleting the POI database and installing the safety camera database on it's own. I'll be back! Thanks for your help so far.

Paul and Mike. Thanks very much for your help, now sorted. The problem came down to the fact that i was getting muddled between loading on the SD card and/or on the Nuvi. Things were loading on one and not showing on the other or wiping out what was already on one or the other. Confused? Yes, so was I! Thanks again. Paul.
