Quite simply down to a poorly written operating system.

Hi @tnalves

I've assigned the single Iberia map on your device, please connect and download the map. See the steps here in the comment

Cheers, lampard

Took a couple of attempts as it initially failed halfway through writing the large map to the SD card, but in the end, it worked!!

Many many thanks.

Hi @dikkie123

Welcome to the community!

Smaller map of UK and ROI has been activated for your device.

It should be available for download in MyDrive Connect.

Hi cordtex

A smaller map of UK and ROI has been added for your device.

It should be available for download in MyDrive Connect.

This should get installed on the internal memory of the device which will allow you to format the memory card on the device and install a larger map.

Hi. I have same issue with maps and memory card. Can I, please, also get smaller map zone, where is included Latvia, that I can install it in internal memory.

cordtex

Many thanks for your help Vikram. that's a great help.

Hi @raptor812

I am sorry but I cannot assign maps of specific countries.

We are trying to add the UK and ROI map because we want our users to have a working device in case if the installation fails on a memory card.

Hi,
my TomTom doesn't want to know to recognize the card !!!

If you head a post with "@VikramK " he will likely pick up on it and add a small map to your account so you can update your device.

Hi @chemk75

Sorry to hear that you have not been able to get that card working again. Looks like you need a new one.

Soooo glad I'm not the only one with this problem :-)

Dear @VikramK could you please help me out as well? I have a Go 6000 and face the same issue as all the other fellow TomTom fans here; Update failed, Map to big for internal memory.

Many Thanks!

Cheers.

HI @MisterThompson

Assume you will be getting a Micro SD Class 10 memory card size 16gb or maximum 32gb in order to be able tho download the updated Europe map once you can get your GO6000 going again.

Hi @DougLap

Your assumption is correct - I already have 16GB Class 10 SD Card which I used until the update failed. After that it was not possible to erase the half-uploaded map from the card via MyDrive Connect so I formatted it on the PC.

I found it a little disappointing that you can get into this situation. Perhaps there should be a dummy map in Drive Connect to avoid these kind of problems.

However - if one of the Tomtom masters here around can help me out like they did for the others I'm happy with it

Cheers

M.T.

Hi @VikramK

Hi,
I have a GO 400 and have now also the problem with not sufficient memmory.
I use Europe with scandinavian buildings.

@VikramK or @lampard can you also give me access to a smaller map please.

DougLap

Hi @CarstenBA

If you fit a Micro SD Class 10 memory card, size 16gb or maximum 32gb, then you can update your current map.
