I am currently running TomTom v5 on my HP IPAQ PDA and was wondering if anyone else has this issue with TomTom.

When TomTom is running on my PDA, the road names I am driving on that are displayed on screen are correct. :P

When I enter a route to navigate to, TomTom does not display the name of teh current road but it displays the name of my next road. :x

For example, I work in Manchester so to get to work I use the M58 then M6 then M62 then M60.

When I am on the M58, the road name displayed in the M6. When I am on the M6, the road name displayed is the M62 etc...

Is thie issue caused by a setting I am not aware of?

When you are navigating, the screen shows the next (major) road you will travel on. That's the way it is....

Hi,
I have recently loaded Tom Tom software on my seldom used Ipaq series 3715. The software performs great when I keep the application running on the PDA, but when I exit the application and restart all of my saved data seems to disappear and it reverts to the original setting when first loaded. Have I missed out on a configuration change somewhere or is there some file I can change in the SD card or PDA memory. Not really sure where data is currently saved. I had planned to update the maps for the new navteq version including all of the Irish road system. Hoping that I have just missed out on some simple setting but have found no similar postings of this problem so far.

Have a read through THIS.

Also make sure the Memory Card is not set to Read-Only.

Thank you for that and glad to know I am not alone. Now I can plan my fishing trips for the next few weeks until the weather improves. Good work. will be recommending this format of discussion forum to my other software suppliers.
