+Turtle_Sask Posted September 15, 2009 Share Posted September 15, 2009 Hi I have tried using the option of sending the coordinates straight to my garmin gps. I have downloaded the garmin communication thing that it recommends and it still says it cant detect a plugin. I have done this on my other computer and it worked. Im trying to do it on my new one and it does meet the requirements. Can anyone help? Quote Link to comment
Motorcycle_Mama Posted September 15, 2009 Share Posted September 15, 2009 What GPS unit? What internet browser and version? What OS on the computer? Quote Link to comment
+Unkle Fester Posted September 15, 2009 Share Posted September 15, 2009 I found you have to watch your popup blocker alert too. The communicator set-up uses a pop up screen and when you click on it, it allows that pop up. Quote Link to comment

Motorcycle_Mama Posted September 15, 2009 Share Posted September 15, 2009 Ok. But what specific internet browser and version are you using? Internet Explorer 6? 7? 8? Firefox ? (and what number version) Safari ? (and what number version) And what operating system is on the computer? Windows XP? Vista? Mac OSX? Something else? And did you download and install the Garmin Communicator plugin? Quote Link to comment
+fegan Posted September 15, 2009 Share Posted September 15, 2009 Download the latest plugin...I seem to recall a recent update (a few weeks ago). Quote Link to comment
+Turtle_Sask Posted September 16, 2009 Author Share Posted September 16, 2009 I have downloaded the latest plugin and still not working. I have windows 8 windows vista I have I downloaded it and then it goes to the test page on the garmin site to see if it is working properly and says it is not working. Quote Link to comment

You're sure your computer didn't block any popups attempting to install the latest communicator plugin? If you're sure, then I would suggest you check with Garmin if their own test site isn't working. Quote Link to comment
Motorcycle_Mama Posted September 16, 2009 Share Posted September 16, 2009 Yes, you have to be sure to allow Active-X to run aw well. Quote Link to comment
