My 550 doesn't seem to be able to view/import photos from the SD card (1gb). I've done evrything the manual says - User Data, Import. Then I see Favourites and Routes. What should I see?

The card is fine. The PC can see it. Is this a common issue or am I just daft and should stop playing with the toys.

Check that the pictures are in "jpeg format" otherwise the Zumo won't recognize them. When you put the SD card in the Zumo it should say "new data found". Click yes to import you should then get "Pictures".
 
Thanks for the quick reply. Just checked on the format onthe card is jpeg. I'll copy some music and routes onto the card and see if it picks them up. Will let you know. Hope it isn't broken because I've become so lazy using it that I'll not be able to read a map anymore.
 
I plugged my zumo into the pc and dragged each photo from my pics site onto the sd card drive logo from the zumo,. Works every time....:)
 
I've checked and the format is jpeg. When I insert the card it doesn't come up with anything, as if it doesn't know I've got a card in. I'll try another card.
 
Think I have found the cause. It is the card. I have another 256mb card and the Zumo can import from that but it cannot import from the 1GB card. I don't know if it is just this card or the make of card. The 1gb is a Scandisk and the 256 is a Kingston. Will try some of the other makes and confirm. Any one else had problems with certain makes of cards?
 
SD Cards

I use both SanDisk & Kingston SD cards, no problem with either. Mostly used in camera's. At present I use a 4GB SanDisk SD-HC in the Zumo. SanDisk are generally the more reliable, although obviously not in your case.

Friend gave me his Fuji film SD card to put music on it for his Zumo. Could not get it to work on the Zumo.

Put the music on one of my Tevion 2GB-SD cards from Aldi for him instead. No problem. Obviously some cards do and some cards don't.
