Posted: Wed Jan 03, 2007 11:03 am Post subject: How do I upgrade SD Card for Tom tom one v2 and Tom Tom 510 |
|
|
I have purchased a Sandisk 1gb and 2gb SD card and would like to know if anyone can advise how I upgrade both my Tom Toms. I tried copying all data from Tom Tom One disk to 2gb Sandisk but when I inserted into my TomTom One it advised I needed to take out and insert another disk presumably because it did not recognise the new one.
Any help would be really appreciated as I am a complete newby to this sort of thing.
Many Thanks
Karen |

Copy all the files from the original cards in two separate directories on your PC (make sure that the hidden files are shown), then copy them to the new cards. |

Hi
I thought I would try the TomTom One V2 first. I have show all hidden files selected and have used select all from the root directory to copy all files to a folder. I then used the same process to copy from foleder to SD card. The files copy over no problem but when inserted into the TomTom One I get a picture with a cross through the disk and a pair of hands removing it. I have done this several times now with the same outcome.
Any other advice or is this a new problem with Tomtom One v2?

Is there a quick way of printing this or will I have to type out individually. Do you also want sub directories.
Thanks

Hiya
I have finally got a listing of the filse on the new disk and have saved it as a txt file. When I try and copy and paste into a reply here it will not allow me to submit it says the html tags are not allowed.
How can I paste the list here for you?

OK, got it. You seem to have all the necessary files there. All I can suggest is that you re-format your new card and copy only the following files onto it:
data.chk
system
ttsystem
voices
United_Kingdom_and_Republic_of_Ireland |

I've created a 510 SD for you - try re-formatting the card again and copy all the files from the archive I've sent to to you. |

Hiya
Thanks very much for this but I have not even attempted to upgrade the 510 yet. The one we have been looking at is the Tomtom One V2. Should I just give this one up as a bad job?
Many thanks
