Viewing recently added POI's??

[nbg]

OK, I know I'm missing something really obvious here, but I just can't get any new POI's to work

Situation is new 910 out of the box, copied in the speed camera POI's (from PGPSW) and under manage POI's added custom 'warn near POI's', also updated to 6.522. That's all, no aditional POI's or beggering about (apart from trying to get an RDS/TMC sticky pile of cack to work) with the unit.

Mike was kind enough to email over the Classic FM POI's, dropped them in the western_and_central_europe folder on the 910, I can't find them at all via manage poi's or enable/disable POI's. I've also tried downloading a few general ones and copying them the the same folder on the tomtom, although I can see them from windows explorer on the unit, nothing is found via the 910 interface

As I said, I'm sure I'm missing something obvious, would be ever so grateful if someone could point out the bleeding obvious to me

Many thanks,

Matt.

Do as Dennis has suggested then hit the POI button (lower left) and a list of POI will appear, tick the boxes of the POI you require to be visible, the PGPSW cameras and the Classic FM should be in the list, although if you have setup the warn when near option for each camera category installed this function should work irrespective of enabled or not - Mike

Chaps,

I've just copied (OV2 and BMP files) the classic FM and a random other POI (ASDA), clicked on "Browse Map", clicked "options" made sure that "points of interest" is ticked, clicked on POI, neither classic FM or ASDA are in the list, also from route planning ASDA isn't listed under shops or shopping centers

Any other ideas gratefully received!

Matt.

Sorry, I'm out of my depth now!!.
Just two things..
You haven't actually said whether or not you can see the pgpsw camera POIs in Browse map and Explorer?
Somebody somewhere says there's a limit to the number of POIs you can get in there. If you've also "tried a few other ones" (before ticking the POIs in Browse map) might you by any chance have overloaded it? Maybe delete them all with Explorer, then drag and drop again only one set. I only use the cameras myself, no other POIs, so I never have the overload.

Try the following:
Tap the screen and select Navigate To
Next select Point of Interest
Next select POI near you
Tap the right arrow (lower left icon)
From the list presented can you scroll down and find Asda or Classic FM?
if so select the POI category and it should present a list of POI locations relevant to the category selected

The limit for the POI categories using TomTom version 6 is 100 so I doubt this is an issue in this case unless you have loaded more than Classic and Asda? - Mike

Hey fella, as much as an offer that is, Mrs & I are heading off to London this weekend and spending Sunday (New Years Eve) night in the company of Kylie

[DennisN]

Say, why don't you go to a concert or something whilst you're there?

No problem, when you get back offer still stands if you're close enough.
