3 years What a nasty surprise Garmin has put me through... the maps of Canada and USA do not fit on the GPS unit, so it suggests to install the the SD card, which I bought. It's an 8gb card. Unfortunately, their AWFUL software doesnt recognize it. And http://www.poi-factory.com/node/38648 it's not just me. I've read other threads here of the same problem. The solution is mind-numbing to say the least and confusing. I've left a message to Garmin support, but I doubt they will be of any help. Why can't Garmin fix their crappy software??? And, on a further note to that, why don't they start adding more memory to the unit, like 16gb or even 32gb since memory is so cheap now, instead of that measly 2gb ?? If I knew I'd have so garmin nuvi many problems with this unit, I would not buy Garmin. I will not recommend Garmin to anyone for this reason alone. Unlimited FREE map update sounds appealing, but the catch is that you simply cant do it with the supplied software. How scandalous is that??? ‹ Basecamp 4.4.4 Released (Windows) Nuvi SD card problems › Login or register to post comments 2Page 1>> sponsored links Sat, 12/29/2012 - 8:11am synctronic 5 years sd card issues Did you format the card in your nuvi? Do you have the garmin nuvi 1490 latest software upgrade in your Nuvi? I been using 8 GB cards in both of my 1490's with no issues. The 1490 is an older unit. The newer units do have more internal memory. --Are we there yet?

Does the card show on your computer when you plug your 1490 into the computer ??? When I first tried installing an SD card into a Nuvi 260 I own, I was not pushing the card in far enough and wasn't making good contact with the GPS. --MrKenFL- "Money can't buy you happiness ..

Does the SD card work in any other device or compute
