Has anybody managed to install V9.37 Map update on to a TT 1000?
"Mydrive" tells me it's too big to fit on to my device...

I've seen others with this issue but it's a new one for me.

Thanks

Yes, on a TT 1005 (see my addition to the "Odd Pronunciation" topic)

That's right the full 'Europe' map is too big. But you should get the offer to install various sections of the Europe maps. You should be able to choose a selection of the segments which will suit your purpose.

You would think so - but there's no segment which will give you Britain, France, Germany and Italy

Can it be so difficult just to provide a "Western half" ? My device is, after all, only a few hundred meg short of space for the full map Confused And it's available as an option to purchase

That's very true, there is no permutation that will include those three countries - and there are other non-permutations. I've had to compromise with the countries I wanted, too. I installed Map zone 8. Shame that my device does not have a slot for a SD card on which to store alternatives or the whole map.
However, I have not tried it, but if you open up TT My Drive the alternatives are still there on offer and in theory, you should be able to switch zones. So if you are in Italy and have internet access, switch a zone to include Italy and then uninstall another zone to provide the space. On leaving Italy switch back.

Yeah well! It was only an option. Tend to think your suggestion about the paper map would be better Rolling Eyes
