DId not support my NUVI 760

Not strong/stiff enough to hold up my NUVI 769. Design is appealing though. I DO recommend BRACKETRON products, just NOT this one.

I left my power cord for my nuvi 2639LMT in a rental car, so after acertaining the correct cord, I ordered this one.

It showed that it was Traffic Update capable as soon as I plugged it in, and then....got the message that it was incapable of charging the GPS!

So, thanks, Garman; you nicked me for ANOTHER $72. Enjoy! I'll be over there, getting a TomTom or Magellan.

I wanted to upgrade my olg garmin nuvi. This one was ad, loaded with features and customization. It looked great
The price tag was fine
But I've tried to use it just out of the box (after charging fully). I didn't get gps signal. No matter what I did and the time lost.
After a few days I search for this issue on internet, lots of hits on Google. Bad news, i wasn't the only one.
Just a few days ago, TT realease a patch that the say COULD fix this problem.
Now I'm back at South America. I planned to buy the local maps on the TT Home.
I CANT connect the GPS unit to any computer "no device connected" (HP core I5, runnning Win 7). So I can't buy the maps.
***ITS USELESS but on the US, if you get gps signal!!!
I wrote to customer service... NO ANSWER, nothing, nada
DO NOT BUY THIS UNIT, it's just problem after problem

Garmin Express worked fine during initial set up but failed to update. I called help center they deleted some files to make it work which made it worse as the device quitted. Help center advised to take it to Best Buy they updated and got it working again but it cost me $43.00

Purchased card from "used" sales (Final Call auction through Amazon) and I may know why it was returned the first time.  I wanted this card to work based on all of the reviews I had read, however I could not get it to work in my machine.  New drivers, several calls to tech support produced no results.  I think the biggest problem was the driver/software package-the card itself was recognized by Windows with no hassles. My call - buyer beware, Phillips needs to work on their code writing.  By the way, kudos to Final Call, they handled the return and refund on my credit card with no hassles!

Looks like a  great GPS, but the software would not install on my only Windows PC.  The maps, etc. would not update without the softeare.  Unf0ortunately, I had to return the GPS.

I have a Garmin 780, with the original mount adapter. The old cable had a problem and this new cable doesn't work

I got a Nuvi 1450 last year, primarily for the lifetime updates.  At the time, it was on sale for not much more than an update package for my older unit.

I tried to load map update 2013-3.  First, I had to delete the foreign language files in order for the firmware update to load.  Then the things says that there is not enough space on the box to load the new US & Canada maps and I have to either buy an SD card or accept a limited database.

Problem there is that I live in the central US and the dividing line for those databases are a day's drive away.

I tried contacting Garmin's customer service-- no response.

So I'm just going to replace it with a good old Rand McNalley road atlas.

I didn't get to experience the lousy connections that others apparently did because I could not get Windows XP to accept the driver (either from the included CD or from Zonet's website). Caveat emptor.

My Garmin Nuvi 360 arrived promptly as expected. However, the unit had no maps loaded when it was received. I found out that I was entitled to download the map set directly from Garmin. Although I have attempted to do so, I have been totally unsuccessful. I acknowledge I am not very computer competent but I odered a device which I expected to be operational as it was received. As it is, the unit sits, worthles, in  the shipping package.

I am involved in a volunteer program for which I purchased the Garmin unit. To say I am dissappointed isa great understatement. I purched the unit to use it, not to have it occupying space. What I want is to k now where I can get my problem resolved. I would like to hear from Amazon regarding the resolution of this issue.

Thank you.

I recently purchased a Tom Tom XL340 from Electronics Expo through Amazon.  Not only was it not compatible with my 64 bit system but when attempting to download map upgrades it erased every map on the GPS.  Tom Tom Support was absolutely no help and could not explain the problem  I am returning the item and purchasing a Garmin.  I have spent several hours on this problem with no results.  By, by Tom Tom or Dumb Dumb.

not clear in the description. Does not allow street navigation or maps to load

Okay.  As usual it will not recognize the micro sd cards I purchased for use in the GPS.  No idea what it is looking for.  Tried 4 gig and 16 gig which were rejected.  Able to leave off half of the maps when updating them.

Rather than pay for individual updates I bought this to update my Nuvi. Price wise it was a no brainer with four updates per year. The Amazon experience was painless. However the Garmin experience of actually downloading the updates was an exercise in frustration. The first time I tried it I took another reviewers suggestion and let it run overnight since it took several hours. I got up in the morning and it was done. What I didn't realize was that my device didn't have enough memory for the update so it only downloaded the lower 48 states. I discovered this the next trip we made to Canada. As soon as we crossed the boarder we had no maps. After several emails to Garmin tech support I purchased a 4GB SD card and tried again. The device would not recognize the SD card so again only downloaded the lower 49 states. More emails to tech support to try this and try that. Nothing worked until one of the tech support people suggested that I try formatting the SD card. After that no sweat....30 minutes later I had US and Canada updated.

The Garmin Lifetime Updater that is installed on your computer is pretty straightforward and easy to use. Be aware, though, that depending on your GPS unit you may need to add memory.

After hours of trying to get a usb-midi interface to work, I phoned Yamaha.  The technical support rep was nice but told me they do not have a driver for VISTA 64 bit operating system.  This is my second cable that was unable to use. Before purchasing this product, please make sure your computer is compatible with this product.
