HELP! downloading back-up to new mmc

I have recently purchased a nokia 6680 & tomtom mobile 5.

having backed up the tomtom software to my pc i then purchased a 512mb rs rv mmc to enable me to download additional poi's & voices.

i removed the tomtom card from the 6680 and inserted the moby memory 512mb, i then used nokia data suite to download the tomtom software to it.

after doing this i thought i would just be able to use the tomtom software as previously with the original card but the shortcut has not appeared in the menu grid and i can find no other way of activating the software.

have i done something incorrectly or is there somehting i am not doing?

please help!

cheers

p.s. i absolutely love tomotm mobile despite only being able to download a few poi's to the original card, just can't wait to get a load more poi's & voices onto it.

you need to copy all the files tot he new card via a card reader as the Nokia Suite changes certain file formats

Good luck

thanks for the advice, wish i'd realised that before i'd bought my mmc from moby memory as i'd have saved a postage charge, oh well.

cheers,

I have the same set up as you. I got fed up with using the Nokia Suite and now transfer data using a £10 usb card reader, which works MUCH better and is a damn site easier.

bought a high speed r.s. usb card reader from moby memory and everything is sorted now!!! fully backed up and downloaded to the 512mb card with tonnes of poi's & loads of voices, this really is a great piece of kit.

note to anyone who uses nokia suite, it takes a fraction of the time to download/upload with a usb card reader, a real time saver for less than a tenner

The problem is AFAIK is that PCsuite can't/won't transfer the system files so this can only be done with a card reader. As savechip has found out.

I have also just bought tomtom mobile 5 and a BT-77 GPS.
I have successfully put ttm5 on the MMC (via card reader)and have the icon on my mob. I can open ttm5 on my mob but i can only get as far as screen 2, which asks me to log into tomtom service. my phone won't connect.
Also, I have paired my 6680 and the BT-77, but even though the phone says its paired, the pairing seems inactive, and the BT-77 flashes as if to say the connection is not working.

can anyone helpme please!!!???
