I have read the instruction on how to save my favourites, which says to click on 'manage my community content" but cannot find that in any part of the logged in window for my via 280. there is a 'community' button but still can't see instruction how to save favourites, only the community question section.

For example, here's what it looks for me with my device connected to the computer and Manage Community Content linked:

After using Method (1) or (2) to access the "Manage Community Content" menu install your .Ov2 and associated .bmp file Here.....
I am still a little confused.
When I open the "Manage Community Content" I see the file to be saved to the computer and have saved it without a problem.
To load it back, do I click and expand the "Add POI" button directly below the "Community POI on Device", similar to your Windmill" and W_H_Smith" as show in your screen shot above?
Also I have in file explorer a new file with the extension .ov2 but no .bmp file.
Regards Bob
PS Where is the button - Mark as a solution? I want to click it

With the "Manage Community Content" window open
click on the Browse button (Shown in the red box in my post) to open the PC Filer system... Find your Saved "Favorites" .Ov2 file and select it... Click on the "Install" button (Shown in the red box in my post)
If you haven't a .BMP file your device will use a Tomtom generic icon instead
I think its only the original poster who started the thread, that can mark the reply as a solution
