PLEASE can someone help me , in very simple terms, as I'm not very tecchie.
I had a Western Europe map card in my Tomtom 710, and decided to "upgrade" to Western and Central Europe, by means of paying for the download. I bought a 2Gb SD card to replace the original map card, and the download has worked fine on the new card. However,how do I get my numerous personal poi's onto this card from My Tomtom in my documents. I could do this on the old map card as there was a Western Europe map folder to paste to, but in the Tomtom Home 2 ther is nothing like this. I have dozens I need to add to my new map. HOW/ Please help!

Just copy and Paste the POIs from the map folder on the old card to your PC, then copy and paste them from the PC to the map folder on the new card. You can do this with a card reader, using Windows Explorer, don't mess with Home.

Thanks, but I did warn you that I am useless. how do i do this, where is the map folder. Do you mean I should put my old card in the device . Then what. I'm not totally stupid, but I've always struggled with ANYTHING to do with Tomtom and computer.[/u]

Send me a PM with your phone number, sit by your computer with your TomTom and the two cards and I'll ring you now.
