I should also say that my Great Britain is 172.6 and UK and ROI is 163.4. I cant see this difference is personal details and POI's so maybe you dont have all the folders required. Just a thought. _________________ NEW Tomtom GO 500 (hope it is good)

What you need right now, limehouse is to go park your bum in West and Southwest London and hope to bump into Andy_P2002 - he's our resident GO300 Experto di Expertos. What he doesn't know about the GO300 is what TomTom Support know, namely SFA (and I'm not talking Superficial Femoral Artery here). _________________ Dennis

Ignoring the ones that say "online", what else do you see? |
Limehouse can you confirm that in HOME both Maps are shown in the Location Column as on the Device? _________________ Richard

If you click on add maps, voices etc. then the arrow then items on my computer you should see your new GB map there and if you press the more info link you should see the version as 710. If so you press the add to device icon to put it onto your device but if you dont see that version number then i dont think you have it downloaded properly, you should maybe try it again. _________________ NEW Tomtom GO 500 (hope it is good)

Just done this - version is 710 (129.6 MB). Re-installed from PC as suggested. Still no change!
Grateful for all the suggestions! TomTom are not very helpful. |

One other thing to have a look for, have you a MapName-7.meta.dct File in the new Map Folder?
You'll have to check with Explorer. _________________ Richard

Please forgive me and humour an old pensioner.
Have you perhaps got the v710 map already installed and in use maybe?
Tap bottom right
Then tap the box saying Version
To give you a screen on which it shows software and map versions

I've got United_Kingdom_and_Republic_of_Ireland-8.meta.dct (not 7) in the new Map folder.
Checked map and it's still the old version in use.
Both Maps are on the device (used HOME to check). [/img] |

I've only got the new (UK&I) map on my computer - version 710 (HOME says it's Great Britain and the Republic of Ireland though) |

Just used Explorer to look at files on device - in the root there's a file Great_Britain-24a02c86.mds, but there's not one similar for United_Kingdom_and_Republic_of_Ireland - would this cause the problem? |
