had a strange one today that has not happened to me b4 post code tw11 0, road north place would not come up with anything so used the trusty A-Z and left navman on. It is on the map as it showed up as i got close but no matter what I tried it would not find it via the input screen any ideas I tried different postcodes tw11 1 etc but to no avail
Thanks Griff

I've had this on a couple of occasions. My workaround is to find a nearby destination/street (on a standard map, or web-map), find that on the Navman and get it to show. By tapping and holding on the screen you can then drag the cross-hairs to the real location (might take a minor bit of fiddling around). Holding the stylus on the destination brings up a menu (Navigate to, add to favourites etc.) which you can use to store the real address you want.

Thanks for the reply I will try that if it happens again does the map have to be in 2d mode?

I've only ever done it in 2D mode, but I've no idea if that's necessary.
