TomTom HOME 2.4 released

As you suggested, Trevor, there is no problem installing Home on his PC, connecting the Go to it and downloading/installing there. All you have to do is log in to Home with YOUR account name.

Strange! The road outside my work still shows as 39mph! A change i never made! Yet my mapshare counter shows 0! Has TT addressed this issue yet? or will we have to wait for next version of navcore?

Tomtom loaded latest version of home last night. On the mac running latest 0/s.

since that point I have received this error on startup. Once I clear the error message it seems to start as normal.

have uninstalled and reinstalled to no joy.

I also installed the latest version of 2.4 for the Mac last night. Installed OK and runs fine, except that it still crashes my Mac if I try to "Operate my Go".

I have moved the default locations of the folders where Home stores the Tomtom data, using the Home preferences. Wonder if this is related?

I am running 10.4.11

It's working OK for me.

It could be something in the folders on your system which have become corrupted.

The Home folders on your Mac are in the Documents folder under your user account:

HD - Users - your user account - Documents - TomTom

What I might try is uninstall Home again, copy the TomTom folder to another location and delete from the original location.

Re-install Home

This should create new folders on your system as though you were installing it for the first time.

Keep your copy of the original folder just in case you need to retrieve anything at some point

I do not have a Mac but am sure Mac owners in the US forums are reporting that the emulator has started to work for them with the latest Home firmware.........

Thanks, dhn, I'll give it a try at some point when I can afford to let my Mac crash

Operate my Go (One XL) worked on Mac v2.3 and 2.4 and today it's 2.4.0.68 and still works. Mac OS 10.5.5

The GPS status screeen is different, in that it shows 12 full strength satellites and refreshes very quickly compared to the TT on its own.

The OS shows 8.011 on the Mac instead of 8.10. I prefer the compass on v7 so I reverted. Little advantage (IMO) on going to OS v8 as the One cannot use IQ routing and ALG on the v8 maps. Wish I'd paid a little bit more for a 520.

OK, I didn't think it could, I don't have a v8 map to check and didn't want to spend £60/ $110 to find out. I wasn't offered a v8 map on the map upgrades page, just the v7. I've not seen or read anything from TomTom to say it can.

Thanks for the info.

Does anyone know how long it will before the mapshare downloads will be up and running.
Has TT said anything about this?

Cheers
