Is the SDHC card physically installed into the Garmin 1450. What is the adapter and what is it's use
842841
Yes it is installed. The adapter is to allow the card to inserted into the slot on the 255 nuvi. Works perfectly

It's physically installed as you stated, there is no adapter. I installed the SDHC card into my computer first and downloaded the updates, then inserted the card into the garmin, the garmin will recognize the additional storage space.
842843
Yes. During the update I think it asked me if I want to use external storage space. Works great.

please confirm latest update, also this is the micro SD and not a CD correct? I need for a garmin edge 810 which onlytakes the sd

I also needed a micro chip for my Garmin 741XS unit. If you look at the bottom area of the original SD card you will notice a small microchip slid inside of the original SD card. Remove the microchip and see if it fits in your Garmin Unit. The embedded microchip should contain the same maps and information as the full size SD card I hope this information is helpful

Any Gps card that fits will work just have to soft reset the unit after it's installed

Beware! I just tried to upgrade my free maps and Garmin's software download said I did not have enough space on the 1450. The only thing on it is their software! I had to choose a part of the country to load and not the complete US. The other option was to buy a microSD card. Plus the unit now loads slower and takes forever to do a calculation for a destination (i.e., 4x longer). I wish I could go back to the original map load but apparently you can't.

I would think it would work for the plain NUVI 1450. I believe it has the same connection

Yes. Both the 1490 and the 1450 I own connect to the internet via USB. However, if memory serves (I have not updated them in ages) they connect automatically to the Garmin site.

The link from where I bought the adapter list compatible Garmin units. Yes the street pilot c550 is listed. Go to the link below and you will see it listed http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B000F78582?ref_=pe_527950_33920250

You DON'T need an adapter for a standard SDHC memory card...however, you DO need one for a MICRO SDHC card for most card readers, cameras, etc...the exception being most cell phones, which only accomodate the Micro size behind the battery!

Yes you can get an sd card. Garmin European cards come out every 2 years and the 2012 is much more reasonable in price than the 2014. We purchased a 2012 that covered Germany, Austria, and Switzerland.

That's a tough question. The Amazon page doesn't list it, but the Garmin power cord offered by the manufacturer for your device is also compatible with the nuvi 1370 (according to Garmin), and this device is claimed to be compatible with the 1370. so I would say YES! All of the nuvi series use a 5 volt power supply (which this unit has), so the only compatibility issue is if the mini-USB connector is the same size. This certainly seems to be the case here. Incidentally, you do realize that your traffic warnings won't work with this cable, right? The traffic part requires a special power cord with a receiver built in. Nonetheless, I use this cord with my 1450 for most of the driving I do, since the traffic is not usually an issue. Using this cord saves wear & tear on the 70 buck traffic cord, which I only use for long trips into unfamiliar territory. So, order this - I think it's a safe gamble if you want a basic power cord. (I'm an electronic technician with 45 years experience, so I am rather informed about the issues here.)

there is no any extra step. just inert the Memory card into the GSP. The GARMIN express will handle found the device.

You don't need it to insert the card into the Garmin but you do if you want to insert it in your computer's card reading slot. I I don't think any computers have slots for the micro cards. Hope this is helpful.

Do I MUST buy the microSD card from Garmin for my Nuvi 1450? There is quite a difference in price if I buy a "generic" one...

It works as a charm. I just put into my Garmen Oregon450 and turned my GPS on. It works great. Now I have a street/road map. Also it appeared on PC as a folder/disk along with Garmin.

The version I got is a 4 GB Scan Disc micro-SD card that fits in the micro-drive slot on the Garmin 810. Bob
