Hi,
Just got a new Garmin, after years with Tomtom and wanted to download and install a few POI from here, but I can only install one at a time using POI Loader, is this right or should I be able to install more?

Sorry if this has been covered before, I did look but couldn't find any info.

Many thanks

Lyngarth

Not sure what you mean by one at a time?

You can copy any POI file if it's a .gpi file directly into the POI folder on your device.

If they aren't .gpi files POI loader will take multiple files and combine them into one .gpi file.

See here http://www.garmin.com/us/maps/poiloader for more help.

Hi,
Sorry what I meant by one at a time was I had 12 poi's in a folder but when I ran the POI loader prog, only the first in the file was downloaded to my garmin.

Anyway I deleted and re-downloaded to my Mac and now it seems to be working fine.

Thanks for the reply and link.
