Does Home show the map when you go to "show contents of my device"?

Hi.

I am having the exact same problems. I just purchased a Tom tom 720. The maps showing on device is Version 7.05.1480 i do exactly what Tom Tom say and it says "Your device come with the Latest Maps"

When anything (maps, poi, etc.) is dl from the web site, it first goes to a folder designated in TomTom home menu: Preferences/File Locations/ Download.

Check there. Maybe, just maybe, the new map got dl properly but just isn't getting installed on the unit.

Worth a shot....maybe.

I've just sent an e mail to tom tom and it says you will receive a reply in 48 hours. However i doubt if i will get anything worth while as it looks like no one is getting any decent answers from Tom Tom.

The only reason i can think of they may be delaying this is their servers cannot handle so many users downloading new maps all together.

Two issues here: 1) You MUST have version 7.210 of TTHome software installed to make the 'map guarantee' work. That I know. 2) Somewhere. I think, I saw the automatic update of newest map works only for 520's and 720's at this moment. And the third of the two issues ( Smile

), somewhere I read that TT will be providing everybody with the version 7.10 of the map. Wasn't clear if for all countries or not ...

hiya dont know if anyone can help me or not?? ive got a 510 running the latest update with a 2gb sd card, i bought the updated map of western europe, downloaded it and after ive finished downloading it it comes up with internal server error and thats it. when i go back to up date the map it says i need to download it again. i checkedthe ownload file and ive now downloaded it twice and have the folowing files.

activation_map_50000 (a zip file)
map9020 (picture icon)
map9020-1
Western_Europe (a zip file)

is there anyway of manually installing this now as i really dont want to download nearly 2 gb again!. the only thing i did whe downloading it was to delete the old maps fom the sd card (i do have a back up though) as it said there wsnt enough space.

thanks

euan

I've been getting the same messages as everyone else. looks like a standard cut & paste answer...

In the meantime, waiting for the end of the week and TT to sort out their map upgrade, I have an RMA because of the crap handsfree sound quality... Plus this week the sound from the device seems to be going bad... It sounds like the internal speaker is working it's way loose and vibrating with the voices...

Anyone know what Comet's policy is for 6 week old devices? Will they send away, or just replace?
