|

Since changing my SD card in my TomTom I have lost the use of the six digit feature for my search. Does anyone know how I can reinstall this feature? I have all the latest updates. |

I do not have a file called zip as talked about on previous threads. I have got a file called tomtom but htis seems to make no difference. |

Do you still have the original SD card? - if so copy the zip folder to the new card - it contains the postcode data file. If not load the CD for the GB map and select the postcode option to install - Mike |

I deleted some postcodes off the old SD card to make way for other files so copying the SD card would be a waste of time. When I try to boot the CD I got with the product it says that there is not enough space on my temporary drive? Not sure what to do next. Thanks for your replies. |

Which Version of Software are you running?
What size SD Card do you have?
Just a few questions that will help to give the correct (hopefully) answers. _________________ Richard

Thanks for your help. Where do I go with the link. Sorry not too technical. Do I need to wipe my SD card? |

I have Tom Tom Home installed on my PC will this deter me from fixing my problem? The CD info does not show any guidance to install the postcode files. |
