|
|
I tried to plan a route to my son's new house (it is not a new build - built in the early 1900's), but the navigator could not find the address or the postcode. How do I contact the manufacturer to get the address added??? |

What's the name of the road and where Mississippi, I'll check to see if it's on mine. _________________ Formerly known as Lost_Property

The town is (wait for it - its in S. Wales) Ynysddu and the address is 19 Pont Gam Terrace NP11 7LD.
A collegue at work tried on his with the same result as myself. It recognises the town but not the Terrace.
Thanks for the assist.
Also thanks Ibendlin but your certificate is not valid - according to Microsoft. |

Have a look at Google Earth, put the postcode in to the application and it will give a photo, and the Lat Long of the screen. Find the location of the house and the Lat/ Long and use this to input to the device as a destination - entering Lat/Long co-ords has been covered in the forums loads of times, just an alternate way to find the point to navigate to with some interesting pictures via the Google Earth and the net - Mike |

Surely the address would have to be reported to tomtom as well? _________________ -------------------------------------------------------
