Garmin Nuvi 2370 address search failing

0

Hi all

I'm using a Garmin Nuvi 2370 I have downloaded the gmapsupp for California from open street map and copied it to my device. I'm searching for an address and mostly failing: The place I'm looking for is 1100 H Street, Sacramento, CA 95814

  1. There does not seem to be an option to search for ZIP codes - is this simply a limitation of the device?
  2. Searching for H Street, Sacramento; or 1100 H Street come up with no results
  3. Searching for H Street comes up with a number of results. None of which are under Sacramento, however there is a listing under Not_set, USA. Clicking on this takes me to Sacramento on the map.

Can you let me know if the problem is with the map data, the device I'm using, or possibly with me. Thanks!

Which site did you download it from? Lots of sites offer downloads based on OSM data; none of them are "official"; all of them offer slightly different features.
