Apologies if this has already been covered. I like to keep my favourites down to a manageable list and therefore previously used the PDA contact list to navigate whenever possible. I have now upgraded my HP IPAQ 45xx TT from version 5.2 to 6 but when I try to use the contacts list the TT6 says it is not recognised. Anyone managed to use their contacts list to navigate?

Thanks.

Yes it does work but the addresses need to be in the correct format for TomTom to read. It's very much a trial and error, and very time consuming if you have a lot of them, the easier way is to put them into an .OV2 file and name it contacts.

Import your Outlook Contacts into Streets and save the file. Use POI Converter to change that to a TT OV2 file. Copy that to your current map directory and you are in business.

Streets = Microsoft Streets & Trips (N America) or Autoroute (Europe)
