My Magellan RoadMate 1340 will power up to logo and "moving clock

Hi,
You can download "Windows Mobile Device Center 6.1" straight from Microsoft. This is the latest version to use with Vista and Windows 7.

If you are still using XP, then do a Microsoft search for "Microsoft Activesync".

This is really all you need. Thanks, Bill

I have a problem with my gps.it opens and I see the logo of Magellan but after he presented me with a logo from computer USB port and gps.it nothing happens I have some information to subject

It depends on the Roadmate that you have. :
- If your Roadmate has a separate plug-in port for charging your unit IN ADDITION TO a USB port, then no, your Roadmate cannot be charged using your computer via the USB cable.
- If your Roadmate only has a USB port available for charging your unit, then yes, you can charge it via your computer via USB.
However, please note, according to Magellan, charging your unit using your PC via USB can take up to 12 hours to charge vs. 4-6 hours when using the vehicle power adapter.
FYI: This is mainly due to USB constraints on pretty much all electronic devices. USB cannot carry the same amount of power to a device. It uses what is commonly known as a 'trickle' charge to recharge a device. It carries much less current than a full-blown charger (like an AC power adapter).

Hello :

I recommend you to reset your RoadMate .

To reset your RoadMate please follow these steps :

1: Locate the button marked "Reset" on the left, right or bottom of the unit.

2: Using a thin object, such as a paper clip, depress the button for two to three seconds. The unit should reset.

3:If the unit does not reset, immediately press the button again and hold it for up to 10 seconds.

NOTE : Please don't attempt to perform a factory reset on the Roadmate or Maestro GPS units by holding down both the "Reset" and "Power" buttons. This will cause the GPS unit to format its own hard drive. Doing so will erase all data, including the GPS software, from the unit.

This solution should help with your problem . If that didn't help , then I recommend you call Magellan service for help .

PLEASE DON'T FORGET TO RATE !

Should be able to so long as it is set up for it, plug it in and see if the power light comes on, then leave it for an hour, at that time see if you can turn the unit on. You will at this point have your answer to your question. Make sure the computer is on though. (i know, but i didn't put that in one time and i got a nasty message from somebody, so now i put it in.)

Now, based on what you told me I understand that:
· You want feature information.
· You want to know how to change the system language

RoadMate 1210, 1220, 1340, 1440, 1470

1. From the main menu screen select the Settings icon (has a wrench and a screwdriver in an X formation)
2. Select the option labeled "Sistema"(Spanish)/"Systeme"(French)
3. Select the optino labeled "Lenguajes"Spanish)/"Langues"(French)
4. Select your preferred language setting
5. Confirm your selection by selecting the Back Arrow on the bottom left hand corner of the screen
6. Unit will restart to make the language change

This is the boot screen, Remove the power connection, and reinsert while you press the "Cancel" button at the same time, if done correctly, your Roadmate should continue to boot and enter the user mode.

This happened to me, I had to send it back to Magellan for repair.

I have the same issue. The device just powers up and shows the Magellan logo and does not continue past that.

Does the initial Magellan screen appear? If it doesn't display anything and it's just blue... :( Normally means that something on the main board is your problem. Which, means your out of luck. What happened to it? It just suddenly stopped working? Let me know. R/
