Thanks

Hello all,

Here is my question/situation:
Before I had an Etrex 30X that came with some old maps (Topo 3.0 if not mistaken). I grabbed newer topoactive maps, and then, everytime a new version of this maps came, the update would appear on Garmin Express.

Hello. I have an old Garmin device SP 2820 on my motorbike which is enough for me as I have a clever enough phone to navigate me as well. I downloaded Europe 2021 NT version here.

Please don't think you need to list them all. If you have a Garmin which does one or both of the ...

My GPS is a nuvi 1490. A little over a year ago I bought a replacement battery from someplace on Amazon. It hasn't lasted very long, now only holds a charge for 20-30 minutes.

I'm trying to figure out how to prevent my Garmin Nuvi 1100 from going in to Mass Storage mode when using a USB cord, and not the lighter charger.
