I'm using a TT720.

I have downloaded, unzipped and copied across the fully zoned speedcamera database into the W Europe folder( including the seperate OV2 and BMP files). I have also downloaded some POIs and done exactly the same. Other than those - I have not added any POIs except one category.

Now I can see the speedcamera databse POIs but not the others when I use any of the navigate to POI/manage POI etc functions.

Any ideas why? I want the other ones (YHA, Tesco, NT etc) to work too...

Can you view the Western Europe map folder using Windows Explorer and count up the number of files that end with .ov2 (these are the POI files). If you have more than 100 this will be your problem, MapShare uses up quite a few of these 100 slots if you use it for updating POI's via TomTom Home.
Recently TomTom have increased the maximum custom POI count to 300 in software release 7,21 so you might want to consider that version for your device it is free. To check what version you have on the unit tap the sat strength meter lower right corner and it will display the version on the middle right of the next screen - Mike
