I have a GO 1000 and use MyTomTom to receive any updates/maps etc.

About two weeks ago a friend bought a Start 20 which I connected to my computer and MyTomTom to get the latest map guarantee and software as he doesn't have a computer.

The problem now is MyTomTom thinks I have a Start 20 even though my GO 1000 is connected to MyTomTom.

Do I need to contact TomTom to get this fixed, as I am expecting the new map later this month, so I want to make sure my GO 1000 is still linked to it's original email account.

All I can say is that SHOULDN'T have happened. I've been using almost the same two NAV3 models (a START 25 and a Go1000) on the same PC and the same copy of MyTomTom.

All that happens is that if the "wrong" one is connected from when you last logged in, you get a pop-up window saying something along the lines of:

Is there any chance you accidentally selected option #1 ?

If your Account has got switched over to the Start, then your best bet would probably be a call to customer services to sort it out.

I am sure I did not link the Start 20 to my account, but this seems to have happened automatically.

Another thing is when I logged into my account on my GO 1000, the Live Traffic has now stopped working.


Looks like I have to contact TomTom. Evil or Very Mad

Thanks Mike.

Finally got my GO1000 restored to it's correct account after providing proof of purchase to TT support.

Latest updates successfully installed.

I won't be connecting other peoples TomTom's to my PC in future. Rolling Eyes
