I have a garmin nuvi 55lm. Everything works fine except that when i make a call through the phone tab i can hear the other person clearly but they cant hear me.

Try clearing out the pairing and start over again. There is a possibility that the built in microphone in the Garmin isn't working correctly. Here is a link to suggestions from Garmin. http://support.garmin.com/support/searchSupport/case.faces?caseId=%7B5d7cb200-3e38-11e2-e8a7-000000000000%7D

There are usually 4 side by side green bars if the battery is fully charged. You can think of each bar as 25% power, so (4) bars is 100%, (3) bars is 75%, (2) bars is 50% and (1) bar is 25%.

Why won't Satnav turn on?

Hold the power button in for at least 30 seconds while externally powered. Some of the units have software problems if they are shutdown using the power button instead of letting them auto-shutoff when you remove DC (shut off your car).

How do I turn on my Garmin Nuvi?

Go to Garmin and download and install Garmin Express, Plug your GPS into your PC. The GPS should power on and Garmin Express should identify it and tell you of any updates. If the GPS does not power on (it should go into usb mode), then contact Garmin for warranty work. You can also check the power adapter in your vehicle. If the red light does not come on, the adapter either has a blown fuse or went bad, causing your GPS battery to be discharged. It is quite possible that your battery is discharged. You might leave it plugged into your PC overnight if the battery is dead.

My garmin nuvi 2225 will not acquire satellites since I brought it to Europe. I loadd maps for the area but it can not find its position.

If the garmin can reach satellites in North America, it will reach satellites anywhere in the world as long as it has a clear line of site to the satellites. Depending where you are, the satellites can be higher or lower in the sky. This means that the garmin in your vehicle may not be able to see the satellites how you have it positioned in your vehicle. Try finding the satellites outside of your vehicle while in Europe. If you can, then the problem is positioning in your vehicle. The satellites are all the same kind no matter where you are.
