HOW TO CHANGE INTERNAL GARMIN VOICES?


I have a few voices for Garmin that my family likes to use from time to time but I can only upload them as American English voices. Very frustrating to go through that process every time, hookup to your PC and replacing voices. I have used voice editor to change the internal names to one of the other names like Bulgaria or Arabic but then the instructions in most cases go wrong. Haven't found one yet that will work properly with the American English template. Please help me in finding one, by sending your valuable suggestions.

In order to change internal garmin voices,you have to first install your voice.

How to install the Garmin voice:

  1. First,connect your Garmin GPS device to your computer.
  2. In case if you don't already have the Garmin Communicator,install it here.
  3. And then return to the individual voice download page.
  4. Later on click the Install Voice button on the voice download page.

How to install without using Garmin Communicator:

  1. first of all,connect your Garmin GPS device to your computer.
  2. Next,click the Download Voice button
  3. Click Open,only if necessary.
  4. And then click Extract.
  5. Next you have to browse to find the “Garmin/Voice” folder on the Garmin drive.
  6. Double-click the Unplug or Eject icon on your desktop tray.Then ClickStop, and then later click OK.
  7. Finally,Unplug the USB cable from your Garmin GPS device.
  • First of all,Click on the "Start Menu" button and then select "My Computer".Once the "My Computer" window has been opened,you have to select the drive which shows for the Garmin device. Then,double-click on the Garmin folder and then double-click on the Voice folder.And then you have to extract the voice files from the compressed format to save them to your desktop or in any visible folder.Then,all you have to do is click and hold on each voice file you wish to transfer to your Garmin.Drag and then put those files in to the Voice folder.

  • Finally,disconnect the USB connections from both the computer and the Garmin.Click on the "Settings" button on your Nuvi screen and then click on "Language" and then "Voice".Finally,choose the voice which you wish to use for your Garmin and select "OK". Now,your Nuvi 200 is now automatically set to your desired voice.
