|
|
Hi,
I have a TomTom one - Europe, and am trying to get the speed camera POI's and a few others,(fuel etc).
I've done this many times before with my 710, - but the TomTom One is proving hard work.
All the other items seem to be TOC files, - should I be downloading these instead of OV2 files?
And how do I get them to be displayed in TomTom Home2 so I can activate them?
Thanks in advance

Tony | I THINK the procedure should be the same for both 710 & One. _________________ Jock

The TOC method of installation is not available for the POIs. The Speed Cameras have got this ability because it was thought it might be easier to install these using HOME.
If you do want to use the TOC Version of Files you have to place them in the Downloads Folder that HOME uses. It's location is shown in Folder Preferences of HOME.
The FAQs Page has all the Links to shown how to do it. _________________ Richard

In other words... Don't use Home, just manually copy the .ov2 file (and it's associated .bmp icon file)for each POI category into your map folder, and you're done. |
