TomTom One Europe, Cameras Download.

Bingalau

I'm new to this sat. Nav caper, however I have managed to use the TomTom One straight from the box as I expected. But I then got adventurous and ordered the camera thingy. Now I am completely confused. I must say I have never come across such a complicated set up in my life. I haven't a clue how to get it onto my device. When I have tried I have been sidetracked by the whole TomTom site becoming unavailable for some reason. After asking for advice I have received mails which are so complicated the Society for Speaking English or whatever it's called would give up even trying. There seems to be no step by step guide to do anything on the site. Perhaps it's me? Maybe I am thick. But I am at the stage where I have given up even trying. I think I will just forget I have paid for the item and maybe I will wake up in the morning and find it has all been just a nightmare. ..Bingalau..

Are you having problems with the TomTom supplied camera database or the one from this site?
Have a read through This Guide which explains how to download, install and configure the database from this site on a tomtom product - please note these instructions were for the Go-910 but if you ignore the part about Text To Speech they are applicable.

I don't use the TomTom cameras as you cannot configure them in the same way as true POI files - have a read through the guide and see what you think, this sites database is also cheaper (not what you want to hear if you have just payed TomTom though) - Mike

Mikealder. Thanks for reply, I will read your instructions properly as soon as I have dealt with my morning mail. Yes it is the TomTom supplied cameras. ... If I have any success or not, I will get back to this site and let you know. ..Bingalau..

mikealder. I have just read through your instructions and although they still look very complicated to me I will have a go at it later today. Maybe when I read through them a second time they will look a bit less complicated. Once again. Thanks for the help. ..Bingalau..

BGF. O.K. Thanks for that and I will be a bit wary. I am trying to get answers from the TomTom site, but they seem very slow in everything they do. ..Bingalau..

BGF. Thanks again for that. It probably will help when I get the download onto my computer and then onto my device. But it now seems to me that, because I ordered and paid for the camera's when I got my device new, then had to return it because of a fault. The replacement device has a different number which may be what is causing my problems. ..Bingalau..
