Hi
I have downloaded my POI's onto my Macbook (Mac os x 10.4.10)
But cant install them onto my TT 910.
When I connect the computer and tomtom nothing shows on tomtom home.
Any help would be welcome.
Thanks |

Where are you getting the POIs from.
If they are just OV2 Files then you don't need HOME.
Just connect to the Mac and copy to the Map Folder.
I don't know about using Mac's, but I believe it shows as another Drive. _________________ Richard

This is a Mac Issue. Intel Mac's had a recent system update which knackered the USB Support for some devices including the x10's (910).
The solution is to use a USB hub, plug this into your Mac and then the 910 into the hub and bizarrely it then works fine!
I use a MacBook and MacBook pro and had this issue with my 910. _________________ Darren Griffin |

I use a MacBook and MacBook pro and had this issue with my 910. | Ahah!! I wonder if it'll work with my ancient USB 1 hub I've just unburied? MacBook Pro wouldn't work my USB card reader last night for the latest DB download for my 510, so I had to do it with my PC. I'll give it a go (sic) tonight. Incidentally, it worked perfectly with USB cable for the GO700. _________________ Dennis
