8.15 map out today

I was offered 815 for my 920 and the new firmware 830. I clearly did this wrong as I downloaded the map only. When it was installed and I went into TomTom, only the North American map showed as available, not my new Western European map I thought I'd downloaded. I assume this is in part because I didn't upgrade the 920, but also probably a memory problem as I only had 229 mb left, except for my 4Gig card I'm not using.

So, what should I do now? Download 830 first? That seems a bit early as I don't like being an early user. But in any case, how do I manage my memory as cleary the 920's own memory won't be enough. What do I put on my card? I only travel in the UK and the USA right now, and mainly in the UK. Should I move the North America map to my card?
Should I wait for 830?
Just one other thing, I'd paid for the one year upgrade deal.
Thanks
Doug

Had to pay £8.95 (plus £35.8 for 12 month upgrade) as my map was one quarter old, which it wasn't but it was the 810.1907 map which is presumably why I had to pay. So, as I have paid on the first day the new map is available let's hope they are not a day late in issuing the latest map in a years time!!!

Not impressed with 8.15 so far. It shows the A30 'blocked' northbound near Bodmin (I have submitted a correction) N50.58811 W4.52676 if you wish to correct yours.

Also I was keen to get IQ routes 24/7. Living in Cornwall means roads can be a nightmare at busy times - yet, IQ routes reckons there is no differnece on the A30 on a Saturday in August to an evening in November!!!!!!! Also tried a route to Carlisle from here - 27 minutes difference between peak weekday and Sunday night - oh really! Can I have a refund?

Mark you are quite right to question what I put, even the TomTom web site now offers maps at version 815 for the One range, although they would appear to be smaller in size than the same area map for the Go range so perhaps they have made two versions available bringing all the devices on to the same map version number (which is a good thing IMHO)

@ PocketGPS perhaps you might want to call 0845 161 0009 and ask them why your One v4 won't offer the v815 map using LMG - Mike

Just upgraded my 720 with software version 8.300 and map 815.2003, but I've lost all my favourites, and I had to reset all my speed camera warning preferences. How do I reinstall my favourites? I did a full Windows backup first.

I Know this one!!!

Copy the backed up version of mapsettings.cfg from the backed up map folder (Western Europe etc.) into the new Map folder on your device.

Cheers

Carl

Copy the MapSettings.cfg file from your old map folder to the new map folder and boot the unit, your favourites should be restored, if they are blank still have a read of FAQ #15 on This Page - Mike

psyskiesman · Posted: Tue Nov 11, 2008 8:39 pm Post subject: All sorted.

Thanks mikealder, all favourites restored. Great when you know how!

If my map is discounted by 75% and still costs £60 for a years updates, how much does that work out at? Flamin' expensive map!
