Have a look at this thread. It should get it working.

Try something like this.
Connect your PDA to you computer with using Microsoft ActiveSync
In the ActiveSync menu select File -> Explore
Double click on My Pocket PC
Double click on Storage Card
Then from thye menu File -> New Folder
Click on the new folder to highlight it then RIGHT click and select Re-name.
Name this new folder Tomtom.
Thats's it. On restarting TomTom5 you should now be able to get 7 digit postcodes. |

I have exactly the same problems on my Zodiac.
I have tried everything on here, but still no joy.
Seems like a problem with Palm devices. |
