I tried to do a search on here to see if this problem has already been discussed, but didn't come up with anything.
I just got a Nuvi 1450LMT yesterday. I transferred all my Favorites to it via Mapsource (saved from my 265). Everything looked fine. After doing a software upgrade I notice that all of the map symbols appear as small black dots instead of the chosen symbol. The proper symbol shows up when I choose to edit a Favorite however. I tried deleting all favorites and just creating one on the Nuvi and giving it a symbol - same problem: it only shows as a black square on the map. My 256T shows the correct symbol as well as text (like "Home") whereas the 1450LMT doesn't show the custom symbol or text. I have chosen to use maximum map detail but that doesn't help.
My question is, did I screw something up or was it caused by the software update? Is there some setting I have overlooked?
Hi,
I've just done the first update on my Garmin 1490. I just read this tread and will be using my GPS in the next few days. I"ll let you know how it goes
