2025.10 Maps on Zumo 550
I made "clones" of my three GPS (prior to getting the new 595) on 16GB USB drives. Just to have a backup of the data. I have a 550, 660, and a 665 Today, I was checking the devices to see if they worked. When I plugged in the 550 USB Garmin Express said I could update the maps to 2025.1. J...

Getting Routes from Microsoft Streets and Trips To 595
I have a "new to me" Zumo 595. My intent was to replace the 665 I had on my Goldwing for longer trips (more reliability and brighter screen). Well the screen is not much brighter but.... Also I was using Microsoft Streets and Trips to plan my routes and then upload the resulting GPX files ...

Dots Vs Flags
New to Basecamp but I thought I had it worked out. I thought the "Flags" were "Waypoints" ands the "Dots" were Shaping Points. So, I was just using the "Flags" (Wayponts) for spots I really wanted to go and then using the mouse and cursor to drag the route whe...

Re: Garmin 595 will not stay connected to MacBook
Still looking for a real solution but, I have something that seems to work. I turn the GPS on its face and then connect the plug to the device after the plug is connected to the computer port. This way there is no stress on connection which I think is the issue and since I bought it from EBay..........

Garmin 595 will not stay connected to MacBook
I attached my new (to me) 595 to my computer and the device shows up (disk drives) on the computer screen. After a few minutes, the devices disconnected and I get a warning that the device was removed from the computer without following proper steps (or words to that affect). So, it's new to me, I h...

Re: Audio Volume Control Zumo 595
Good information I shall endeavor to learn. I do have a "Spot Tracker" that I use so that someone I select can see where the "Tracker" is. Interesting the 595 has basically the same thing.

Re: Audio Volume Control Zumo 595
Thanks for the feedback. Regarding the Autocom SPA, I was looking to see which of the "pots" on the printed circuit board control which inputs. But I found out I did not need it when I found there were two volume controls on the 595. As you mentioned above, I think, one is "master&quo...

Re: Listening to Audio Books on Zumo 595
I thought I'd probably have to get a "converter". Did a search and found this one. Since I have a MacBook, it would work.
Only problem is the cost. But I can download some books in advance and probably get enough for one year.
