When you got it second hand the person who sold/gave it to you should also have given you the TomTom CD which would have a product code.
Without the original CD your only option is to purchase another copy of TomTom.

| But, I thought that somebody said that you can't just 'sell' second hand TT stuff like this, because it's tied to the original device ? So what do you do with all your old gear that still has some life in it ? |

You can move the software between devices you own. Normally the first move is painless, after that you need to contact TomTom and produce evidence of ownership of both devices! |

Yes, but even so, you still need your product code.
TomTom don't support any use of the product second hand, as I've discovered. |
