Hi there - Happy New Year to all!

I have had real problems with the Garmin GPX download following the recent update - no problems prior to the latest update. The GPX file downloads and is installed on the Garmin but I do not get alerted now an dthe speedcamera symbol is a simple grey dot. I have just downloaded the databse in the sepwerate speed camers files and it looks fine.

I have ben downloading the GPX databse for almost 9 months now so I know what I am doing and the alerts are turned on on my Garmin - any ideas or suggestions?

Thanks Peter Sad

Hi there

My GPS is a 2720 Streetpilot. When I download the GPX file it unpacks as a single file with the licence and help files. When I transfer the data to the GPS using POI LOader - the result is a series of grey dots which do not auto alert. If you manual install the files the data does not provide proximity alert suggestions. In the past, once the data is on the GPS I hav ebene able to scroll through the individual POIs and see the camera pictures in the different formats and the speed limits set for each camera type - unable to do that now.

Cheers

Peter
