How to remove POIs from favorites

Does anyone know how I can remove POI alerts accidently loaded to favorites other than deleting them one by one?

Did you add directly to favourites or add using the poi upload software. If you have used the poi loader you can remove the poi file but you will loose all. I usually load poi's in groups eg shops and then rename the file before loading more and then you can just remove the shop set when you need changes and not have to load all your poi's again.

How do you create groups? My Poi loader will only take all files in a directory (CSV etc) and only compile them to poi.gpi. I'm using a Nuvi 250w.

Also, I can't seem to get the mp3 files to play, only the tones play.

Thanks for the tip. I have started to do the same. The trick is to remember to rename the poi file before transfering it to the device.

I load everything into
c:\Garmin\poi\safety
.\shops
.\etc

When I update anything I copy it into the relevent sub-directory under Garmin\POI

Then use POI Loader to copy the converted POI.gpi to the GPS.

That way you don't lose anything, just update the relevant files..

sound good buddy, I learn and try it later.

From memory, the 250w will only play wav files. The upmarket models will play the MP3 files though. The music played from the garmin 765 to the car stereo is as good as the cd unit, just have to find a channel that doesn't have any interference on car radio.
