chuckr30 Posted May 9, 2011 Share Posted May 9, 2011 I started registering my nuvi 1450 on my dad's PC. Then stopped after I entered the serial number. Now, at home, 200 miles away, I cannot register this GPS on my own computer (windows PC). How do I register this on my own computer? Software update seem to install at home but my "mygarmin" web page on garmin.com does not list my device (nuvi 1450) when I log in. Quote Link to comment
+mpilchfamily Posted May 9, 2011 Share Posted May 9, 2011 When you register the unit your letting Garmin know who owns it and its serial number. Doesn't matter what PC you did it on it should be under your info right? Where you logged in your account at your dad's PC? If its not showing it may not have been registered so go through the process again. Just log into your My Garmin account and run through the register process again. Quote Link to comment
+Red90 Posted May 9, 2011 Share Posted May 9, 2011 Yes, I'm confused as well. The registration is under your account. It has nothing to do with the computer. You can logon under your account on any computer. Quote Link to comment
chuckr30 Posted May 10, 2011 Author Share Posted May 10, 2011 Well, this is what I did. After I logged in to myGarmin at home, I wanted to download a software update. There was a box on the website page that listed devices, and it said "no devices found". I assumed this listed registered devices, but I think it lists connected devices instead, and I don't think I had my Nuvi connected to the PC at that moment. So, problem solved. I connected my Nuvi, downloaded the Web Updated, and got a software update. Now if my Tracfone (Net10) only had service in Canada I'd be all set. Quote Link to comment
