Dear BinTake care. Garmin 010-11045-05 is only a credit to update a Garmin Euro map. The Euro map is aroung 4 GB and you can only, after purchased it in Garmin site, downloaded it to a SD memory plugged in your GPS. This map will only work in your GPS. I am not sure if nuvi 1200 accept Euro map. Please check in Garmin site. Otherwise the Garmin Euro map 2013 works very well and you will have all the info in English. Regards

No, I tried that and it did not work. I finally used Plug and Play Street Maps: City Navigator Europe NT.

dear Anth, I am so sorry, but i don't know. First I purchased a "map" for a Garmin, and didn't have a Garmin, so i returned it. Then I purchased a used Garmin with Europe in it, and took it to Europe May 1 to 30 2013, and used it with my google maps i paid for on my Verizon cell phone. i often used them both to find things, along with the map i got from AAA. Best of luck! Susan

In response to R. Sherborne's post you mention that you were able to update your 2008 maps to 2009 for free. I'm extremely interested to know where and how you did this. I am anxious to update my Nuvi 360 to the 2009 maps but the garmin site charges $70.00. Any tips would be appreciated.

You can use it in many languages (I've used American English and Canadian French). There are frequent updates to the languages to fix problems and improve otherwise. There are many Garmin maps available (see https://buy.garmin.com/shop/shop.do?pID=63940) for what is available. I have not tried any maps other than the ones that came with the device.

It sure indeed is a brilliant forum. I´ve looked for my answer there and from what I learned the device I was actually looking for was C310 and not C310x. A software hack was required in order to read the ROM so I gave up on this unit and chose a NAV200 from Delphi which stores all its maps in the external SD card thus making it much simpler to switch to maps from other countries. I also had to consider the fact that navteq, route 66 and destinator are the only available providers of maps to Brazil and US (the countries I need).

That's a tough question. The Amazon page doesn't list it, but the Garmin power cord offered by the manufacturer for your device is also compatible with the nuvi 1370 (according to Garmin), and this device is claimed to be compatible with the 1370. so I would say YES! All of the nuvi series use a 5 volt power supply (which this unit has), so the only compatibility issue is if the mini-USB connector is the same size. This certainly seems to be the case here. Incidentally, you do realize that your traffic warnings won't work with this cable, right? The traffic part requires a special power cord with a receiver built in. Nonetheless, I use this cord with my 1450 for most of the driving I do, since the traffic is not usually an issue. Using this cord saves wear & tear on the 70 buck traffic cord, which I only use for long trips into unfamiliar territory. So, order this - I think it's a safe gamble if you want a basic power cord. (I'm an electronic technician with 45 years experience, so I am rather informed about the issues here.)

G Malley, V2008 is the new version number they use from 2008 and after. v8 is the old map. So yours has the latest map. Great news Rebecca, thanks for sharing the news. I am glad that Garmin does listen to customers' complain so they change the policy. That's what a good company should do.Cheers

I received 370 yesterday with v9 European and v8 North American. When you register your unit on Garmin.com you got free North America map free update. Easy.

Nancy, that will NOT work in your Garmin Nuvi GPS. You need to get a "Micro SD Card" and make sure it comes with an "SD Card Adapter" (most micro cards come with an adapter but not all do so make sure it is specified that the adapter comes with it). The Ultra card shown is far to big to fit the in your Garmin's card slot. The Micro will fit. What you do is insert the Micro card into the adapter, essentially making it the same size as regular cards that will fit into your computer SD Card slot. Then you insert the card into your computer, download the desired information onto the card (maps, languages or what have you) and remove it. You then remove the Micro card from the adapter and everything you downloaded is now on that little guy. You then insert the Micro card into your Garmin and upload the information on it into the Garmin and there you have it. It's far more simple than it sounds. For a step by step, should you need it, simply do a search "how to insert and remove micro SD card from adapter". It should take you to a nice, short little YouTube video that shows you how it is done. Hope that helps. (By the way, that Garmin comes with a lot of memory and with a lot of stuff crammed in it. I deleted a whole bunch of stuff such as the languages that were on my Garmin and that provided plenty of room for all of the things I wanted to keep on there. Generally there will be enough memory space on it unless you are wanting to upload a map of South America or some other country onto it. Also, be advised that this particular model is no longer being manufactured but as far as I know it will continue to work fine for you.)

Some new devices include (at a higher cost) the "lifetime update" option, while others (at less cost) do not... needless to say, you get what you pay for. Rather than replace your old Garmin, you might be better to just buy a map upgrade. Be careful, though, and don't do what I did: I recently bought a lifetime map upgrade for my Nuvi 205, and when it came in the mail, I was shocked to read the fine print and learn that the 205 has limited memory and that this update could not be loaded fully into a 205. MAKE SURE the map update that you buy is compatible with your specific model.

No, this model does not support maps of Europe. There is at least one current Garmin model (Nuvi 2577LT) that does come with preloaded maps of both North America and Europe, but while it comes with lifetime traffic, it does not come with lifetime map updates (although it may be possible to purchase lifetime map update subscriptions for it - I don't know). When I travel to Europe I bring with me my (nearly obsolete) Nuvi 1370, for which I have a subscription to lifetime maps for both North America and (at least Western) Europe. In general for Nuvi model numbers, an "LT" suffix signifies lifetime traffic and "LMT" signifies lifetime traffic and map updates. I believe the "7" in the tens column of the model number signifies transatlantic (maps of both America and Europe).

Amazonian, No matter how you slice and dice it, the 920 blows away the 370. HOWEVER, having said that it does not mean it is better in every conceivable way. The iunitial question was generic, so I gave a generic answer. The poster perhaps wanted to visit POLAND above all other Euro countries and so Garmin 370 would be useless there. TT does not support Greece and is a major omission, especially as TA (the map supplier) covers Greece (51% of the roads) and MioMap Europe has it. Croatia is a hot tourist destination now, so I can see why they are covered. In any case, a visit to the TT and Garmin websites will tell you what countries are covered in their various flavours of Euro map offerings. MOST people want to visit the big five: UK, France, Germany, Italy and Spain and both units would cover them. Heck, even Portugal, Holland, Belgium, Ireland, Switz and Scandinavia are universally covered by the big boys.

I think I purchased mine last year [2013] and only used it in the Republic of Ireland. Good for street numbers in the biggest cities. But, for the places we traveled, it would get you only the correct street. Most places in the countryside don't have numbered addresses. Used mine in my old Nuvi 260 and it worked fine for our purpose. Hope this helps.

I used this card in a Nuvi 3590. I have to admit that when I returned to my country of residence, the 3590 no longer wanted to give me turn-by-turn street name voice prompts. A short upload from the Garmin site and it was fixed again. The nuvi 500 is a smaller and more rugged unit than the 3590 and has the additional micro simcard slot which is pretty standard today. There's absolutely no reason why the card shouldn't work. Beware, though, the version that I got sent had a few glitches, where we drove roads which though completed about 2 years ago, were not yet on the card and the GPS got a bit confused. But 98% was OK.

The box for this item says 007-01663-00 Rev B. It also says 170-00849-00 in another spot.Nowhere does it say 010-11315-50 on the actual item. That is what the Garmin website lists in their own online store, which appears to be a newer model of this DVD. I believe the difference is this item here is unlocked and can't be locked to a device. The newer DVDs I hear have to be locked to a specific device. Well, my brand new Monterra won't load the maps from this DVD so it appears to be a requirement to use the newer version of the DVD for the Monterra at least, not sure about any other type of new Garmin. Going to have to send this back unfortunately. The box for this item says 007-01663-00 Rev B. It also says 170-00849-00 in another spot.Nowhere does it say 010-11315-50 on the actual item.

Osama Sajiid I purchased my garmin streetPilot C580 from Amazon about 2 months ago (around 9/15/2008). Mine came with 2008 maps. I called garmin within a couple days after receiving it from Amazon and updated to the 2009 maps for free. It took about 4 hours to download the 2009 Maps to a file on my PC (I have DSL). It then took nearly two more hours to install the Maps from the file on my PC to the C580. I believe that Garmin only gives you 30 days from the time you register your GPS to update the Map file for free. After that, you have to pay. I think garmin charges around $100 to update your map file. You can actually purchase a map update from COSTCO on CD for a little more than half what Garmin charges. I saved the file I downloaded for my 2009 maps. That way, if for any reason my map file gets corrupted on my GPS, I won't have to pay to download another file later. UPDATE: We purchased another Garmin C580 for our son for XMAS. I tried to update his MAPS to 2009 but was not able to do it. Garmin requires you to get an authorization code (by calling in) to update the maps. The AUTHORIZATION code will only work to update the map file ONCE. To update my sons map file to 2009 (on my computer which had the downloaded map file on it already from updating mine), we had to call in & get another authorization code. There was no charge because his unit was new. We could use the MAP file I downloaded to update my maps to 2009,and thus saved the four hour download time (on my PC which has DSL). However, we had to have a new authorization code.
