Hi,
Just joined so apologies if I have put this in the wrong forum.

I have been using TTN 6 for the last couple of years on a Mio 168 PDA, on TTN 6 I could create/ add/ edit/ delete POI's on the device, unfortunately the Mio is slowly dieing with crashing and freezing becoming a daily occurrence so the better half got me a TomTom One V3 as a Christmas pressie but this doesn't have the create or add options on it. I have copied my existing POI's onto the TT but when I want to add a new POI I have been creating it on my PDA and then copying the OV file across to the TT. This is all well and good while the PDA is still alive but I fear its days are numbered.

Does anybody have a solution or at least come across this problem before?

Cheers

Stu

I've answered my own question. Smile

I use MS Autoroute 2005 to plot my POI's on my PC so i used

Glad you got it sorted. Welcome to the forum.

The solution that you have found is perfectly acceptable but you might also wish to have a look at TYRE which can be used in conjunction with Google Earth or Google Maps to achieve a similar result.
