Post Adding POI to my 250W     
Reply with quote

Hi,
I have a .csv file and i want to add more Tim Hortons in Canada POI

Here's a sample from the .csv file:
...
-114.048531, 51.011072, "Tim Hortons 100 - 723 46 Ave SE Calgary AB T2G 2A4 CA (403) 243-7028"
-79.639064, 43.592221, "Tim Hortons 100 City Centre Dr Mississauga ON L5B 2C9 CA (905) 848-0212"
....

I m using the Garmin POI Loader but none of them are added ... or they are added but I don't see them.

Is there anything specific that i have to do ? Do I manually copy this somewhere or ...

Please let me know ?
Thanks

So did I, and when i do a search i can't find them.

Ok here's how I do it:


1) Load the POI with Garmin POI Loader
2) Go to POI
3) Search near a city: i put the city that's in the csv file
4) Spell name: Tim Hortons (for example)

and it can't find it !!!!

What's wrong ?
Thanks a lot

You should load CSV file with POI Loader. Direct transfer is for direct favorite POI management.

Hi,

I have the same problem with my Nuvi 200. I loaded the POI using POI Loader from Garmin site. I see a message, successfully loaded.

But when I search, I do not see the listings that I added?

POI Loader is used for UPLOAD your POI list to your GPS. POI Editing (adding,removing,editing waypoint information) s/b done manually in .csv sheet,saved and then uploaded.
Cheers.
