I have my Tomtom VIA 1625TM and I am quite happy with it , I only need to save my favorites from the device to my PC as a back-up , I logged in into mydrive and started the device and tried to right click the connect icon but it does not give me the options needed like ( manage community content)
Anybody knows how to solve this problem ?

Hi
@Capitano75
Was your device turned on and connected to a computer USB port....
Were you connecting direct to a PC USB port, Don't connect through a USB Hub

yes it was connected directly to the usb port and on , I have read that the new software is having problems with the ( manage community settings ) and doesn`t show it , is that true ?0
