 |
|
| I have a TomTom One V2 UK and my dad has a TomTom One V2 Europe. Can I wipe the SD card in the UK version and copy the files from the SD in the Europe version to the other SD card so that both TomTom's will work in Europe? |

Welcome to the forum, you cannot legaly just "swap" data between devices, if you do this one of the devices will be running illegally obtained software.
Also the actual memory cards are of a different capacity so the data from the Europe card won't fit on the card that contains the UK map.
To do this within the scope of your license you will need to purchase the Europe map for your device - Mike |

| Thanks for the welcome. This has been playing on my mind for a while now because I wondered if I could add the Europe Maps to the UK SD. Is it possible to add just one or 2 maps to the UK SD as long as the card has storage space? I would also need to look at the legal side of this. |

| I paid for both TomToms so therefore I might have the right to add maps from one to the other? |

The V2 Euro has a single seamless Euro map of nearly 1Gb, not a collection of country maps. |

'fraid not.
The End user licence says you can't. |
