Based upon what I see, I would suggest you: make a complete Explorer, not Home backup of your unit's contents. Ensure hidden files/folders are showing.
Now.....DELETE (using Explorer) the complete TomTom (j) folder and its contents.
Disconnect the unit PROPERLY from the computer. Restart it and I'll bet everything works properly.
If so.......make another complete backup using Explorer.

I agree - it looks like somehow you have ended up copying the entire contents of your internal memory on to itself again!
Glad it is all working - once you free up some space you will be able to put the map back on the SD card again. In theory, everything else can remain on the internal memory but with the latest apps you sometimes end up with voice folders and a few others on the SD card as well as the maps.
No doubt Mike will pop up soon and tell you exactly what you do need on the SD Card as well as the map folder for it to work. |

Should be plenty of room.
You can remove any voices you do not use as well - I only have 2 voices on mine, Kate and Jane and have removed all of the others. |

The Speed Camera database needs to go in to the actual map folder so you cannot put it on the SD card unless the map is on there.
The files are quite small and with 94,8MB available even with the database installed and ogg audio warnings I bet you will have over 93,0 still available - Mike |
