GPS for Garmin Nuvi 265WT Question.... - Off-topic

Hi, you guys are so helpful and know a lot so I wanted to see if anyone knows anywhere to get this....
I have just gotten a Garmin Nuvi 265WT. I am moving to Mexico and wanted to see if anyone knows where I might be able to download the maps for Mexico.
I have google searched everywhere and I am unable to come up with it....

Hi, I have the same unit and you must go to garmin.com and register your product and you can buy your maps there.

TomTom 6. Need assistance!

Ok I d/l the tt6 taster version I assume? It comes with with the software and one map to d/l. My question is.....where the heck do I get new maps from? I went to the site and clicked on maps and it says their system is down! It's been down for like 2 weeks now!
I open the prog on my Kaiser and it doesn't give me the option to purchase maps on there. Well at least to my knowledge it doesn't. Where do I go from here? Suggestions? I've searched and searched and all I can find is the "tasters" version. I tried d/l some other cab file for my device but it tells me I need to update my ROM for it to work.
I just want to get some maps dang it!
please!!!!! haha

Thank you! But those come on DVD disc. There is no section where I can purchase online and download map instantly?
I think you may have to install TomTom Home, which is installed on your PC. From there you can purchase maps and install it on your device. I think you can get TomTom home from TomTom's website.
I downloaded TomTom taster for Trinity (p3600) from HTC and installed that. Now to get maps
Try this link for TomTom Home (It's found under the Plus Services tab on their website). Don't forget to download the version for Rider and Navigator 6.
When it's installed, run it when connected to your phone and it will find the GPS receiver. This will pair your phone with your TomTom account (I think this pairing is generated using the IMEI) - you can then buy maps through TTHome which will be associated with your phone.

If Tomtom o IGo does not have maps for yor country, use a program like GPSTuner in which you can create maps for any area in the world taking them from Google Maps.
You can also use Google Maps mobile or Windows Live Search to load maps on the go and perform local search.
Maltese maps
Hello daniell
If you are from Malta you can check at Medcom Gzira (the one infront of Paul and Rocco carwash in Testaferrata street). I know a person who have a kaiser and installed Garmin software with maltese maps and he's using gps without problems. Only drawback is that maps and software are about the old LM40.
Regards,
I broguth the HTC Kaiser, and i though i have 1 free download from TOmTom, but i cannot seem to find where i cna get this download, can someone tell me, thanks
There are Garmin Navigator Maps for Malta, which are able to route you to your destination (not only showing your position on the map).

I have been reading about TomTom7 on diamond, and i really havnt found any detailed information how you get it and maps for your country.
I would like to know where i can get tt7 with a map over sweden, and yes, i will pay for the map, if you tell me how

Question for Tom Tom 7 users

I've installed TT7 on my Tilt and the install went fine. I've even downloaded the one free city (Miami) map. However, when I start up the software all I ever get is the waiting for a valid gps signal. I've run the quickgps to get the latest updates. Are there any other settings that I need to look at? I've read something about gpstest and gpsrouter but really don't know much about those. Am I missing something or have I done something wrong?
Update: Well I drove around for about an hour after work and it finally kicked in and started working. But, looks like I have a Map issue. I live about a mile from the ocean and Tom Tom is working cuz i see my position and the ocean is nearby. But, the area where I am is just one big green mass. I didn't see my address/street when I went to set that up either.
1) Running GPStest and minimizing it makes it get a fix sooner.
2) You are not on the map you have. Tomtom doesn't have a very large map area compared to where you want to be, apparently.
Even after downloading the latest maps for your city, some places are still not available. With TT7, I believe you can edit or download map edits and such from other users. I'm not sure whether this is only with POI's or with 'blank areas' as well.
Btw, I don't think that it would show your address when you're are home. Even after you've entered the address, it would probably show that you're somewhere very near.
had the same thing happen to me. I selected to download the free Houston, Tx map, unfortunatly I live outside of downtown, and I am in a green blob as well. If you buy a full map of your state, or find if your in a subcity (smaller city just outside) then you need to try to find the right map.
Anyone know where I can get a cab file of GPSTest?
use a search engine like google!

http://classic.pocketgear.com/software_detail.asp?id=24687&associateid=9
another test tool: VisualGPSce
its best to run the test when u are outside (duhh lol found out the hard way lol, lacked common sense) i first installed the Wilmington DE map and then from my acutally GPS tomtom i copied the US and Canada Map over to my phone and ran another application to make it compatible to TT7 and now the GPS works better
Thanks for the files. Any suggestions on where to find some good maps? I drove into work this morning and the Tom Tom failed to get a connection. Has anyone else experienced and or solved this lengthy connection time issues?
Maybe I should start a new thread for this but as the title of this thread is non-specific I thought I'd post here rather than creating a new one. I installed TT7 on my kaiser yesterday after running TT6 for several months. I read that TT7 was compatible with both TT6 and TT7 maps, however when I loaded up TT7 and tried to access my existing map of Western Europe it did not appear in the list of available maps. Is there a solution for this problem or does anyone know where I can get a "trial" version of Western Europe map for TT7?

TT6 maps are NOT compatible with TT7. Also, there is no trail for WE - you have to buy it (£49.95) from TomTom and follow the instructions in respect of hacking TTH2.3 with the tweaked jar file, downloading the map you bought to your pc, manually transferring it (and the activation file) to your SD card and voila.
I did this very thing last night and it runs a treat!

TomTom 7 + Aus Maps

Hey guys, i love my diamond! i have tomtom navigator 7 with the australian maps working perfectly!
the purpose of this post is to let you know its posible, i worked it out myself.
i suggest you buy the maps if you want the latest ones, but like eveyone else here who's 'rips' software etc im sure you can find the maps on google.
you need to google and find an original diamond version of TTN7 an dinstall that on your internal memory. the maps you can keep on the internal storage but TTN7 must be on the main memeory! this is minaly to make TT Home 2.3 work...
anyway guys, good luck... and remeber pay for what you use!~
Awesome post
Care to elaborate ?
oh you want to know how to do it...sorry...
ok so i found all the info just from searching google. everything works with tomtomhome2. make sure you install the application to the device memory and the maps should live on the internal 4gb storage.
Cracking talk is not allowed here.
u can pm me
What kind of thread is this?
Everybody knows TT is working perfectly on the diamond.
I suppose you are so happy with your TT that everybody has to know you did it.
Its not a big deal to put TT on the diamond there are enough forums on the internet explaining how to do it.
Do not waste this forum by useless threats. This message was not a new threat worthy.
My opinion
Grtzzzzz
sorted it out
wow you guys really need to chill out...lol
