Sorry to bring the subject up but i'm new to this.
I've downloaded the files off here for the atm's and accommodation just to try it because it wouldn’t download all I ticked. On my pc I called the folders atm and accommodation then transferred them to the garmins SD card via the POIloader. Everything’s gone fine until I look on the custom POI and everything seems to have gone in a long list even the speed cameras vie noticed. They are in sort of groups that they are when I ticked them on the free POI i.e. for accommodation
- ibis hotel
- Travel lodge
- Premier inn
Etc.
Is there any way I can put them all together in a separate folders like I put them in on computer i.e.
- accommodation
- ATM's
- Speed cameras etc?

One thing i have found out is that when you download a catagory onto the garmin then rename it using explorer because they all get downloaded as poi.gpi and then overwrite each other.

The POIs on my Nuvi are in categories - Accommodation, ATM etc.

When downloading them from the PGPSW site, did you use this option "Combine subcategories into category file"?
