Il
TomTom tenta di connettersi a un'unità specifica che possono essere adottate da
un altro app (cioè DVDFab Virtual Drive, o altre unità virtualisers, o forse
l'unità si associa a qualcosa d'altro), con questo in mente, ecco la
soluzione:
1)
Collegare il TomTom e attendere che si connette al PC;
2) In Windows andare su
'Start';
3) Diritto-clic su
'computer';
4)
Selezionare 'Gestisci', per aprire la 'Gestione computer';
5) Expand 'Gestione
periferiche';
6)
Nella schermata di destra espandere 'Dispositivi Portatili', verificare la
presenza di giallo-triangolo con il punto esclamativo
all'interno;
7) Prendere nota della
lettera di unità;
8) Sul lato sinistro,
espandere 'storage';
9) Fare clic su 'Gestione
disco';
10)
Ora, sul lato destro, scorrere verso il basso e cercate la lettera di unità
annotata al passaggio prima di '7 ', dove si vede il disco 0 ,..., disco 1, ...,
Disco 2, e così via;
11)
che probabilmente vedrai che la lettera di unità assegnata come quello TomTom
sta cercando di utilizzare, fare clic così destro e scegli 'Cambia lettera e
percorso ...';
12)
quando la finestra si apre, fare clic sulla lettera e poi il tasto
'Rimuovi';
13) Premere 'OK' per
chiudere la finestra;
14)
Scollegare il dispositivo TomTom e ricollegarlo .........
Windows
dovrebbe ora riconoscere il tuo dispositivo.

1) Install "TomTom Home" software in your computer from www.tomtom.com
2) Start TomTom Home in your computer
3) Plug in the GPS dock to your computer's USB port and place the GPS on the dock. The green light on the bottom right of the GPS should turn ON to indicate that the GPS is getting power from the dock and charging
4) Start your GPS while being in the dock. If the GPS asks "do you want to connect to computer" answer "YES"
5) The TomTom Home software will detect the GPS and check if there are any updates for it. Then you'll be offered updates to install. Some are free, some are not. You choose the ones you want to install.

Plug the TomTom into your computer using the USB cable.
Click "yes" on the TomTom to connect
wait for any updates, click "Update and Install"
Click "Done"
Click "Read Manual"
This takes you to their website
Logon with your existing email address and password
Click "Edit My Profile"
On the left are 2 options one to "change email" and another to "change password"

Unless your TomTom device comes with a "life-time" map, you need (to pay for a map update and) get an activation code everytime to wish to install a new/revised map on your device. You can subscribe to a year of update (i.e. 4 maps updates for the year) and you should be able to update the maps (4 times) after you enter the activation code (once you've paid for the map subscription).

Here is the download page for your user guide, download it and read how to calibrate. http://uk.support.tomtom.com/app/manual/p/141,2448

Hi. Try this link might help you out. Download free morocco maps Google Search

Even when you do that it doesn't really update it just updates the software so that it looks like you can update the maps but when you touch to update it just tells you, you have to get an updated map for about $100.00 US. This is bull because you pay upward of 400.00 for this GPS. Then you have to pay pay and pay out of pocket over and over again. So there should be a way to update the map without coming out of pocket every year. The really funny thing is that I got mine about 1.5 years ago and the maps were about 3 years old if not more. Now they even want money to update POI now. Which they probably charge the owner of a business to have his address and number available for the consumer that has this line of GPS available? Tom Tom should probably take a look at other brands like Garmin for instance and see why they are doing so much better in sales because there maps are better. But like any computer its always the software that make it or breaks it in this market.....

It doesn't look good. It could be that the unit has been formatted accidentally, the SD card has become corrupted or the reader damaged. If it is a config problem, the unit can be reset to factory settings. To reset your TomTom device, do the following:

• Check that the battery is charged properly. Charge your device for at least 2 hours before trying to turn it on again.
• Reset your navigation device. Press and hold the On/Off button until you hear the drum sounds and the device restarts. This can take 30 seconds or more.

After two attempts and no real solution do you think it is wise to go for a third time around? You should be insisting an an exchange since you have paid twice for a repair and they did not fix it! Get real!
