Message: Have downloaded the most recent speed cameras files from you. Problem is when I connect my tomtom to my laptop (Windows 10) File Explorer doesn't see the tomtom as a drive to open it up and paste the pocket world database into the appropriate maps. I tried switching wifi off on the tomtom to see if that was blocking the computer access but that didn't help. I would appreciate your advice

1st post in over 5 years huh? Now that IS what I call "occasional"

the answer is, no, it can't be done, see around here and MANY similar posts too:- http://www.pocketgpsworld.com/modules.php?name=Forums&file=viewtopic&t=97670

Shame you didn't ask before buying the TT. Still, I suppose if you are used to it working and don't frequent the forum, it would be reasonable to assume it would continue to work. Bad assumption. Confused

The new "improved" GO520 is, sadly, not as good as the old "even better" GO520 was (and still is for me - I have the old better one).

TomTom's imagination has apparently run out of names/numbers for new models. Like the Ford Cortina, only at least Ford had the intelligence to add Mk2 and Mk3.
