Hello,

Either you are in GPS simulator mode or you are unable to receive satellite signals. go into your tools menu Tools > Settings > System > "check if GPS simulator is activated". De activate if it is and your unit should work fine, if this dosent work try giving the unit an update using Garmins WebUpdater software it can be obtained from this link http://www8.garmin.com/products/webupdater/howtoinstall.jsp.

Hope this helps!

I turned on our copier/printer and received an error code. It states to turn off main switch and unplug machine. I've done that. How do i clear error code c5104 on a copystar cs 400ci

Hi Angela

This error is related to the Yellow charger that sets on the yellow drum, it might be out of position or defective, I would try to reset this error first to see if it goes away if it does not work you might need to replace that part.

Reset Kyocera error code:
1. On the Operation Panel of the Kyocera MFP Enter Simulation Mode. Simulation Mode is accessed by pressing 10871087 on the number keypad.
2. Enter Simulation 906 Reset and Press the Green Start Button. The MFP will ask you to turn the main switch OFF/ON

3. The main switch is located on the right side of the device next to the power outlet.

Try that and let me know!

Good Luck

How do I turn on the motion detector on my Buzz Lightyear?

Hi there, if you're talking about the Buzz Lightyear Ultimate Talking Room Guard, to turn on the room guard, press his voice simulators twice. After he talks, press it again, then after 30 seconds he will be in room guard mode. Press his voice simulators and he will tell you that you entered the wrong code, press them five times and he will turn off the guard.

I can not get my 2014 Ford Focus Titanium to sync driving directions from www.mapquest.com

Here is what Ford says to do. You might want to check to make sure your account, phone and vehicle information is correct. If this does not work, then recommend contacting Ford customer service for additional assistance. Google maps is no longer available for Ford vehicles.

Here are MapQuest instructions:

How Can I Send Directions to My Ford's SYNC Navigation System?

Keep your eyes on the road and connected to the world when you send your destination using MapQuest to your Ford Sync system. You must have an active Sync subscription and register your account on the Sync Owner Site to use this feature.
  1. Map your destination*
  2. Select Send, located in the upper right-hand corner of the map
  3. From the drop down menu, click on Car
  4. Select Sync
  5. Enter your Sync Mobile Number and enter your destination name
  6. Click Send
  7. After receiving notification that the location was successfully sent, press the Voice button on your steering wheel and say "Services"
  8. Say "Yes" when Sync asks if you'd like directions to destination you selected online
  9. Once the route download is complete, the SYNC voice will provide the turn-by-turn instructions to your destination
Please Note: The Send to Car option is only visible after you have created your route. Only voice navigation will be enabled when sending route information to your Ford Sync system.

My Gamin Nuvi can't unlock maps

Use a Garmin 1450


The Garmin Nuvi 1450 can be used while driving or walking.

While driving, use the Nuvi 1450 to create a route to your destination and get step-by-step directions, to hear the names of upcoming streets, to tell you when to change lanes and to find out the speed limits on unfamiliar streets.


As a pedestrian, you can have the Nuvi 1450 create a route for you that uses a mixture of walking and public transportation, such as the subway or bus system, if you have purchased cityXplorer maps for that area.


Tap "Where to?" to set up a route. The "Where to?" icon is a large magnifying glass.


Tap "Addresses." The available categories are address, points of interest, go home, recently found, favorites and intersections.


Input the name of the state or county, if it is out of town.

Then tap "Spell city." Spell out the name of the city using the pop up keyboard.

Press "Done."


Enter the address number and press "Done."

Then enter the street name and press "Done."


The "Go" screen opens automatically.

Tap the green "Go" button. The Nuvi 1450 will now calculate a route to the address.

Follow the voice prompts and map highlight to your destination.


Navigate Using Coordinates


Tap "Where to?" and then tap "Coordinates."

Tap the coordinate you want to adjust/input a new coordinate.


Tap "Format" to choose the right coordinate format for the map you are using.


Enter the coordinates. Tap "Next."


Tap the green "Go" button to calculate a route.


Use the Map Page


Navigate to your destination by following the voice prompts, highlighted route on the map and directions located at the top of the map screen.
Tap the "turn" icon located in the upper left corner of the screen to see the next turn. It may have a turning or straight arrow and the number of miles until the turn. Tap the bar across the top with the next direction listed on it to see a list of all directions.

Tap the plus or minus signs on the right side of the screen to zoom in or out.


Press the spinning arrow in the lower left corner of the screen to return to the main menu.

Tap the "car" icon traveling along the highlighted route to enter the "Where Am I?" screen and get your exact location, coordinates and nearby emergency services.


Hope this helps

My daughter is driving to ohio and after part of the way here, the gps stopped working. When she enters the address it says 'gps is off" but it is clearly on and working.

Check unders tools, pick settings, them pick system. Make sure the GPS Simulator is off. When on it will tell you the GPS is off when you add an address, and ask you if you want to Simulate driving this route. This is on my Nuvi 1370T.

Locate % button

There is no % button on the calculator, but depending on what you need it for, there are some simple basic programs that could work for this. If you just want to find percent from a fraction or decimal, use this one.
Hit the program button and press right two times the enter to get a new program.
Name your program "PERCENT"
hit enter
hit program, right, enter, to paste "Input" onto your screen
In quotes, put "Number?", then a comma, then N (not in quotes)
Press enter to get to a new line.
Enter "100N-->N" (once again, not in quotes)
The arrow is found directly above the on button
Press ENter again, putting you on the third line.
Hit program, right, 3 to paste Disp on your screen.
Put N after, not in quotes

Your screen should look like this:

PROGRAM:PERCENT
:Input "NUMBER",N
:100N-->N
:Disp N

Press 2nd Mode to quit, then hit the program key and select program Percent to run (making sure you are in the "Exec" menu)
Hit enter to run your program: it should turn decimals or fractions to percents.
Don't feel that your intelligence is being insulted by me giving explicit instructions that may be below your level in programming: I did not know whether or not you were proficient.

My navman icn 510 is always on SIM

Your Navman is in Demonstration mode and is demonstrating a route that you have set up. It should be flashing SIM alternately with the time taken on the route so far. 
If you don't want the 'Demonstrator' to operate, you can turn it off. See your manual. If you have not got one, you can download it from the Navman site. 
I only have the iCN510 and I have to go to the main Menu screen, tap 'Route Information', then Cancel Route to cancel the current demonstration. 
To turn off Route Demonstrator from Main Menu icon_arrow.gif Settings icon_arrow.gif Routing icon_arrow.gif next screen icon_arrow.gif Untick 'Demonstrate Route. icon_wink.gif

Problem with iCN530

SIM stands for simulation and this is to be turned off if you do not wish to see the route you have entered before the trip. Change settings in preferences.
