GPS POI > GPS Forum > GPS POI tools > KML to GPX for a Garmin nuvi

I have a Nuvi and I was trying to convert a kml file that has a lot of information to a csv to upload to my Garmin. The kml file is really cool and has all the information i need.

The file seems to have 3 parts to it, boundaries, parking and information. I tried to just to convert the parking areas and when i upload to my Nuvi with the poi loader it says it successfully loaded 1490 poi but i only see 30 of them?

Can some guru here help me load all three of the files? I am confused as why it doesn't work.

It works for me as it converts Google Earth (KMZ or KML) to a GPS compatible format (GPX) in one click.
I save my points from Google Earth in KMZ or KML format and load that file using any KML to POI tool that I need. With POI Editor I can edit, modify and delete waypoints, and convert the file to GPX format and save it for use with Garmin's POI Loader software.
