help with ipaq rx5935 and tomtom6 poi's

[scaffers]

hi

i have an ipaq rx5935.

it has tomtom6 pre installed, i need to install some poi's i have for work on it but cant find the map folder,

i have looked all over the files, but still nothing.

i cant load them by tomtom home because it cant see the pois on my pc.

does anyone know where the maps folder is, or how to get these pois installed


thanks

Just a polite suggestion - you may have been better posting this in the TomTom Navigator forum elsewhere on this site.

I would have expected the Maps folder to be on a card (CF or SD) .

What may be confusing you is that the folder is named after the map you have got with the system. On my PDA the folder is called "Western Europe" - it's the V660 Complete maps of Western Europe. On yours it will depend what TT product you bought. You simply pop your POIs into this folder then in TomTom manage the POIs to make them visible and set proximity alerts etc. Have a look at the TomTom navigator Forum - it's full of hints and suggestions.

Before you go much further I would heartily recommend a FULL back up of your PDA and any storage cards. (Do the back-up of storage cards via a card reader - it's significantly faster then through your PDA).

You need to unhide folders. See:
