Re: i have problema with my tomtom device

@Brian73_cleary: Try to empty the cache in the MyTomTom application's settings menu, and try the update with Google Chrome or Firefox.

If that didn't work out:

"Hold the power button until you get to the (diagnostic) screen.

Then......... 3 QUICK taps of the on/off button. About a half second apart: tap-tap-tap.

Then connect to the computer. Hopefully, a screen will open up and offer you the last known good application for your unit. This process is known as a recovery ...

If that works and an application is installed, then hopefully your map will be recognized.

Then connect to the computer again and get the new application with the goal that this time the installation will go properly and your map recognized."

Re: i have problema with my tomtom device

Hi, 

I have a very similar problem. Tomtom start 20 failed updating European maps 8.85. It stuck on 68 % instalation and message appears "something has gone wrong". Now there is just a notice on GPS "maps not found". As I understand it is somehow connected with memory matters. Mytomtom shows that start 20 memory is almost full. Any solutions?
