Tomtom 6 and Nokia N95 - Problem with maps

[andrewlumsden]

I have loaded Tomtom 6 to my Nokia N95, then the map. I have activated the map and then I proceeded to set my home location. While setting the home location, I had all cities listed, I chose mine and then the street (again all listed) and finally the number. Home location set fine. Now when I try to 'navigate to' somewhere, I only get my city, street and number coming up, nothing else. If I go into browse map, I can see the country and the cities and the roads, I can then navigate to that point on the map...but nothing else??? anyone have any idea what has happened?

Are you using an external GPS receiver with the N95 as TomTom cannot currently use the inbuilt GPS on that phone - Mike

No, I have a Falcom bluetooth GPS unit which connects and works... My current position at home shows up but as soon as I try to use 'navigate to' I have nothing to go to, only my city, street and number.

Try beginning to enter the text of the place you're trying to navigate to - once you start typing the postcode/city list should come up, beginning with the letter you type...as you enter subsequent characters the list drills down to the place you've entered.

I'm guessing the default starting list is the known places you've entered previously - if all you've done is specify your home location then this is the only place Tomtom 'knows' about for you.

Isn't technology fiendish sometimes...

Glad you have it working.
