I have been entering coordinates for years into my TT devices (currently a 930) in decimal format N x.xxxxxx, W x.xxxxxx . Today, it's not accepting the coordinates, and it's giving me the message "no usable locations near cursor" instead.

Anyone know what's going on? Thanks.

I believe it tries to use your entered co-ordinates, and locate your destination on a road near to these co-ordinates. If the co-ordinates give a location in the middle of nowhere, it will have difficulty finding a nearby road. Are you sure your co-ordinates are correct?

Can you let us know the co-ordinates you're trying? (Obviously not if it's a sensitive location!)
Or is it ANY coordinates?

Hi SpikeUk, I sometimes get a message like that when I have selected a map which is a different country to the country I am in.
