Title: Question for Garmin ZUMO users Post by: Steve K (IA) on May 21, 2009, 10:34:50 AM I'm trying to load a route into my Zumo 450. The computer doesn't recognize nor can it find the device and says to set the interface of the Garmin to "Garmin" or "Host". By going through the menus of the GPS, I can't find where you can change the interface. Can anyone help me out?

I don't recall ever having to set up anything in the Zumo. I maybe wrong but the computer should see something on the USB port.

Post by: Steve K (IA) on May 21, 2009, 04:10:40 PM The unit needed a software update. I got this thing in Jan. and just now need to put a route into it. I was to the point of throwing it out the window.

Can't believe however that a software update would make it not recognize your unit. That blows my mind.............

I had a few issues with my 550 and I update it and it took care of it. You have a choice between Mac and PC. Once it starts you click on the things you want to update and the program does the work.
