Garmin Street Pilot 2720 Help

[gchamp]

I have a Garmin SP 2720 and I have saved some tracks from it onto my laptop, but now I can't put them back onto my sat nav.

Does anyone know if this can be done and moreover is it possible to convert a saved track into a route so that I can follow it on the sat nav???

Have you tried the "send to device" icon?

YEP , It says that it is sending Tracks, Way points & Routes but the tracks just will not appear on the unit, So I tried sending tracks on their own; It says transfer successful but there are still no tracks on the sat nav unit.

When I check the track log on the sat nav it is showing as empty too.

Can mapsource convert the tracks into useable routes???

Tracks.

I seem to recall that tracks are not shown on the display unless you zoom in to fairly large scales. Have you tried zooming right in to a place where you know the track should be?

Yeh I have zoomed in all the way in and still saw nothing
also I have the track set to be seen at all zoom levels so i shouldn't need to zoom in at all.
It's frustrating the hell out of me

That still didn't work I was able to see the tracks before I sent them to my PC & now even after sending them back to my unit it is still showing the track log as 0% full. It doesn't look good
