Hi im thinking of selling my TT710 and replacing it with the smaller slim TTXL, my question is will the XL take a 4gig card as I have this size card in my 710 with western europe,usa and canada maps installed.
Thx

Yes, if you've found a 4GB card that works in your 710, the same card should work no problem in a OneXL.
As you probably know, most 4GB cards DON'T work because they use a different technology (SDHC) to normal cards. If you find a non-SDHC card, it should work OK. |

Glad I found this post. I bought the XL EW last week and was woundering the same thing. Another question though is just what can I delete from the set to free up more space? Any ideas?

TBH there isnt really anything that you can remove to free up space other than excess voices which isnt worth it as they dont take up much space anyway.
Buy a 2 or 4gig card and copy the whole contents of the original card onto the new one make sure you make a backup of your original first using tomtom home!!
Also make sure you enable hidden files to be veiwed in control panel under folder options.

I disagree!
DON'T use TomTom Home to make the backup, use Windows Explorer as described in the TomTom FAQ "sticky" topic in the TomTom forum index.
(Having hidden files visible *is* a good idea though, but only for that Windows backup, it'll make no difference at all to the success or otherwise of a "Home"- produced one!
BTW- Ninja21 did you know your animated avatar is taking so long to load (about a minute or more) that I couldn't get into this topic for ages, thought the forum was broken.... |
