Hi guys,I have a problem with mapshare,it cant be installed,TomTom home when I plug my Go530,says "Your map is 49 weeks old......." and when i run the update the message is "An error has occurred.....TomTom Home cannot install the map corrections to your device.Invalid responce received from server"
Any ideas how can i cope with that?

It sounds like the TT servers are down again.

It might not be fixed until some time Tuesday.

It's quite a common occurrence.

I think the last good Mapshare cnnection I got was on 22nd August. I don't think it's a Public Holiday in the Netherlands today, so it may work later, but I'm not holding my breath!

Back up, then try removing all mapshare corrections, both yours and other people's (done in Home, tools menu).
That often "kick-starts" the download process again.

Cheers Andy_P, did just that and got the message to say my map was over 49 days old.

Ran Update from Home and I now have 30578 MapShareupdates in next to no time.

Had the exact same thing yesterday after updating my map. I though it was something to do with that, but was advised to try again today. IT NOW WORKS!!! Whoo Hoo

Can someone else maybe try and see if they can get this particular stretch of road to respond or have TT made an error after the last update and locked the programme in some way?

It highlights OK on my 720 with v8 map.

You won't be able to change the speed limit to 30mph. It's a known bug that during conversion 30, 40 & 50mph speed limits become 29, 39, & 49mph. Rolling Eyes

Edit: Just tried with 720 map and that highlights it OK too.

Are you now saying you cannot select ANY "A" roads?

I just tried your example of the A259 on my Go720 with v715 map and it selects fine.

Try changing the colour scheme and try again. If I remember right, Britannia has red roads for "secondary" roads.

I was ignoring the colour mentioned....
With so many colour schemes available, that's why I said "A" roads.

But whatever, JaTe still should be able to select "B" roads too!
I think JaTe, you need to try (easiest first)
1. a reset, or
2. a "return to factory settings", or
3. a re-install of software
