TomTom Updates problem

[Satch]

Been fighting with the new set of Safety Camera Updates for my TT Go 700 but to no good effect. New update files will not install but TomTom Home manages to delete the existing Safety Camera POI file on the TT before that error message pops up! Arrghh!

Able to Restore deleted files from Backup but still annoying


Here is text of question I sent to TT this afternoon:

"Got 75 UK & Western Europe Safety Camera POI updates this morning via TomTom Home. Downloaded Ok onto my PC but when I attempt to install them get the following messages for all, first one in the list for example being

Cannot install this item:
Safety Camera AT TomTom (Blitzer at 100 tomtom)
This file is included with the item but should not be there:
Blitzer_AT_100_Tomtom (2)c

Sadly the update manages to delete the old file on the TomTom before giving this message. Fortunately had made a Backup before attempting the update but no doubt some others will not have.

Thus stuck with out of date Safety Camera POI's, unable to update and attempting to do so delets the existing POI files on the Tom Tom

Please fix updates ASAP and advise!"

Anybody else experinced this?

I know that on the x10 series TomToms the safety cameras are now no longer held as separate POI files ... wonder if it's related to that?

Right all sorted.

Per email from TomTom customer support, in TomTom Home had to delete all the (corrupted?) Camera POI updates downloaded onto PC and then "Update" again to refresh them.

Had already tried that to no good effect a couple of times so presume they have now tweaked something.

Moral: keep making those Backups!

I have updated my go 510 and dont like it, I am trying to restore a backup but I get a message saying that I need to create 3.5mb of empty space as the disk is too full. Any ideas what to delete as I only have 1 voice and the only map is GB!!!?

Strangeas I did the backup with no probs!!

What are the changes? I've updated mine but I haven't used it since.

Sorted now, I re-formated the disk then restored. All OK now.
