|
|
Downloaded the 2 UK tourist routes and they look really good, although not sure if they could be done in a day as the Lake District one said something like 19 hours. But if you were doing this as part of a holiday it looks really good.
What maybe lacking is a description on the website of what places are and any suggestions of places to stay along the way.
All in all it looks a really nice idea and look forward to seeing more. Maybe a Cotswolds one (love that area) |

Do you get these from the content manager? |

No strangly you have to download it from the website and it's like a patch to the program. Once you have installed it the routes are listed to add to the GPS.
I know it's only got France Commercial POI at the moment but anyone found where you download these? Also I have only found the one France 'Special POI' |

Still cant see a link... can you post up a screen shot? I've got a feeling that my login is redirecting me to an out of date page or something. May have ring tech support... but first it would be helpful to know what i should be looking for.
Cheers,
Rob |

I keep getting sent round the houses looking for these routes. I've signed in on about 3 different login pages that keep coming up although I'm signed in already, I've had pages in Dutch, pages in English and French at the same time and I still can't find out where to get them from.
The commercial POI's are available via the downloads section under GPS Navigation, I don't seem to have a problem finding those !
Maybe it's something to do with my ad-blocker again.

Is that in Content manager as I'm able to access on the website but for V7 the page just says to use content manager to download them?
Seems like something isn't write about the website. I suspect it maybe depends what server you get routed too as I very much doubt the website is being hosted on one server. |

I deleted all my history and cookies and logged in again... I've now got an updated webpage, but still no tourist routes. Where is the link on this page? Is it under downloads or something else?
EDIT: It's changed back to the old one now... Stu is there something wrong with the website? It's all very confusing

No idea how to attach an image. But I just looked and oddly now I can't access the Commerical POI (not too bothered as it was France).
Maybe they are still busy re-designing the pages and will all get sorted out in the few days?[/img] |

I received a screen shot of what jonandmarkuk see's (thanks again)... It's completely different, it looks like I'm getting a site for V6 devices or something (out of date)? So I can't download the tourist routes, and it still log's me into the French and Dutch site every now and again Any one else get this weirdness? |

Just worth a try but clear out the cookies and IE cache and see if makes a difference, or if you can try to access from a different pc?
You may have already tried, can't remember. |

Yes, I get the same, can see a Lake District tours etc on the home page where it suggests you register your v7 (already done) but as soon as I go to my own pages etc (which acknowledge I have v7) it's not there anymore.
I am also getting so many Dutch pages I am thinking of taking classes
Thank heavens the web designer doesn't programme the navigation software |

I'm glad i'm not the only one!
IMO the website is letting the product down now! Lets hope the web desingers/network guy's can sort this out ASAP |
