Speed Camera download hell

I thought two glasses of wine would help, but I am now officially brain dead and still cannot get the download to appear anywhere... I have a new Garmin Nuvi 300, paid my £19 subscription (it didn't say that there would be a delay in any immiment downloading) and am about to give up after wasting 3 of my earth hours, when I could be doing something better. Help any white knights please.

can you get to the camera download page if so make sure you allowed popups or you security software may not be allowing the download

Hi, thanks for speedy reply. After putting in Garmin and then the next part of the route, I keep coming back to a clear blue page that just says:

PocketGPSWorld.com Speed Cameras

[ Speed Camera index ]

and nothing else.

can you try a 'hard refresh' of the page by holding CTRL and pressing F5.

you could also try using a different browser as that somethimes helps.

Cheers

Thanks white knights... Rapunzel still floundering. I paid by credit card through Paypal; I have tried Ctrl+F5 and still no joy, next step is going through another browser I suppose. Failing all that I may have to hail passing saviour in shape of five year old child who always seems to know more than I do when it comes to internet problems. Any more ideas anyone?
Ta ever so.

May I ask what Anti-Virus and Firewall Software (if any) you have installed?

Hi Darren,

I've used NIS and its predecessors for a while. I'm on 2007 now and have never had a problem downloading the database. Is it more possible that popups have to be enabled within the browser? Sorry if granny and eggs spring to mind but just wanted to share my experience.

I use Firefox and have no issues but we have had a great many problems with NIS and downloads. It is possible that NIS works better with IE though. I don't use either as IMHO and with my IT Hat on, NIS is very poor, bloated and more trouble than I'm willing to accept.

To post a link in the freindly fashion is quite simple by using the following code:

The sequence of key presses to do that quickly is:
1st, copy your URL link (eg from the box at the very top of a browser page), then:
1. Click on the "URL" button (this writes {url} into your text(but with square brackets)).
2. Use the left arrow key once, to step back inside the square braket and then type "="
3. Hold the "Ctrl" key and press "V" to paste the link.
4. Use right arrow key to move past the square bracket and type your "friendly text"
5. Finally, click on the "*URL" button to finish

Sounds a lot to do, but once you have it in your head it only takes a second or so.

PS - I use Firefox for downloads both at home and work with no problems.
