 |
|
Hi,
Recently my PDA was completely drained and all info was lost. I had to install everything new again. The maps were on a CF-card.
After I installed Tomtom 3, it saw the maps without having to re-install them, so that is OK.
However, the favorites were lost. Where does Tomtom 3 stores this data?
I can then just back up this file for cases like this. (I know that I can backup the whole PDA, but I don't want to do that).
Thx. |

Browsed on my PDA and found "mapnameNavigatorSettings.cfg" in the /My Documents/Tomtom NavigatorSettings/ folder.
I guess that's it...right? |

The easiest solution for the future is to save them as POIs, that way they are saved on the card.

This has been asked several times recently, nobody has come up with a way to save the actual favrouites that works.
You can go the POI route but that's a workaround and not a fix really.

I agree totally, but I used to have an unreliable 3850 and learned my lesson the hard way.
