| Posted by hrid09 I want to re-download all my POI When I go abroad I like to update all the POIs I shall possibly be wanting so, not knowing how to update as such, I have been downloading fresh ones. After a bit I was being told that I was downloading too much and had run out of credit. So no more downloads for me. Is there a way I can get over this situation and update all my now sadly out of date stuff? As I shall be changing to Garmin from TomTom I shall probably want to download afresh if that proves possible Yours Harry |
| Posted by Mark Re: I want to re-download all my POI Hi Harry, Our extra (One-Click-Updates) does exactly that - you can update all your files in a single click. It packs all selected files as a single GPI or DB3 file. That extra feature is not available to registered users and developers. Regards |
| Posted by hrid09 I want to redownload all my POI Hi Mark, You said that "that feature" is not available to registered users. Presumably you meant the extra feature. I would not want them packed as a single file anyway. Can I not download them afresh anyway? Yours Harry |

| Posted by Mark Re: thanks Mark Hi Save all downloaded files to the same folder before you load them with the POI Loader, as explained here: https://www.gps-data-team.com/pda-gps-navigation/topic/33.html Regards |
| Posted by hrid09 forgotten the title but does it matter Hi Mark, thanks for the reply. Unfortunately I must be doing something wrong though I read the instructions carefully. As an initial experiment I created a folder "POI for Garmin" and copied the downloaded files "JD Wetherspoon" and the attendant bitmap into it but could not find a "loader" so I recopied them into the Garmin POI folder and rebooted the GPS. Went to map and there was no sign of the Wetherspoon flag where my local one is. What am I doing wrong? Nor do I see any menu item on the Garmin for POIs. All this worked seamlessly on my old TomTom (though it was the maps folder) but that is dying rapidly. Yours Harry |
| Posted by hrid09 forgotten what the title was I think I have cracked it. I realised the down loader might be a separate application, and so it was. I have tried one experiment, so far, and it has worked. Fingers crossed for what I shall do tomorrow (to tired to go on any more today). Thanks all, Harry |
