Hello All,

Just acquired one of these, the new Montana 700 which is the basic, non 'in-reach' included unit.
So far seems ok, though it was a little expensive, around $1100 AUD to get the unit and mounting cradle.
Bit disappointing to learn if I want to be able to use AA batteries like in the Montana 610 and GpsMap 276CX I have to spend even more money to buy the adaptor thingo for it, ...

Hello everyone,

Newbie here, so apologies in advance for my lack of knowledge and stupidity!

I have a Zumo 590, Branded as "Harley-Davidson Roadtech". It turns out, unknown to me when I bought it, that it's a Dealer Demo version. That means no pre-installed maps (and thus no lifetime updates) and only 4GB RAM (Garmin's own 590 has 16GB, standard HD version has 8GB.)

I want to use the whole of Western Europe region maps, ...

Will this map work on DriveSmart 50? Thank you.

I keep a nuvi 55LM around so I can get map updates. I deleted the gmapprom and jcv files on my dezl and copied the gmapprom and jcv files from the 55lm to the dezl. I used Protected Garmin file toolkit_2254_x64 to unlock the map on the dezl and afterwards it seemed to work fine. However, in the junction view split screen, the right side of the screen (that's supposed to show the junction) appears ...

Hello!
As the title says, Im having difficulty installing the 2021.20 North America 49 States map onto my Garmin nuvi 1100. This is my first time doing this and I've spent hours trying to figure out how to install the map onto my microSD card. I've tried renaming the folder, the img file, installing older img files, and nothing works. Can somebody please help me figure out how I can upgrade my nuvi map from ...

HI,

I have a Garmin nuvi 255W satnav unit that was bought recently from an electronic surplus store with the original software installed. When I checked the time displayed, the unit showed that it was 1 hour behind than the current time. I am in the Eastern time zone. Also, the World Clock time for different countries was also off, and the date showed January 30, 2001 a couple of days ago.

I have updated ...

Hi,
I have a Garmin nuvi 40LM with life-time map updates. I have updated the maps, firmware, and software updates many times via GarminExpress.
What I want to do is a backup of my maps, and system files from the garmin device on to my PC hard drive.
However, when I enable hidden items on Windows and I view the Garmin folders there are no map files or \.System folder available in the \Garmin folder. ...

Hi all,
I have an older Garmin Nuvi 255W satnav unit that I want to do some map updates. Unfortunately, this unit does not have Lifetime map updates. This has been confirmed with Garmin Express. The installed map is from 2011.
How can I manually update this unit with updated newer maps? Also, I want to install the new maps on a 32GB microsd card.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Hi all,
Sorry if I'm being a little special here but I'm quite new to Garmin.
A friend has recently given me a Garmin satnav (nuvi40), this is the first time I have ever used Garmin which also doesn't help. The issue is that it comes preloaded with the AUS and NZ maps which are not good to me as I live in the UK.

I have installed Garmin express on my machine and tried ...

Yes you can put it on an sd card inside a folder called Garmin
If the .img file is unlocked, the GPSmap will read the maps, if not you will need to unlock it or get an unlock code that you can place in a file alongside the .img file
