Copy from Go Premium to Start 45

Judgeatc

Hi,
We use a TomTom Go Premium.
Recently, my kids gave us a TomTom Start 45, to use in our other car.
How can I copy my POIs/Places from our Go Premium to our second TomTom?
Thanks, Paul

Hello,
With Mydrive you connect your Start 45 to Mydrive with the same login as your Go Premium.

A Start45 is not compatible with MyDrive. It's a Nav2 device what was mannaged witth TT Home.
See at GY: https://help.tomtom.com/hc/en-gb/articles/360015808079-Which-TomTom-START-device-do-you-have-

I think he can copy the ov2 files into the folder of the Map Name

Hi
@Judgeatc
Welcome to the site....
To save and convert your GO Premium, 'MyPlaces' to a .Ov2 POI Category
Maybe Useful... Many users have asked for the facility to back up their MyPlaces to a PC....

Thanks for all the helpful ideas, folks - the suggestion from Willy875 worked and we're now up and running with the same info on both TomToms. Cheers, Paul

Hi
@Judgeatc
Glad to see you're sorted
Are you sure the device is a Start 45 ???
What are the 1st 2 characters of the serial number of your device ??? The two letters define the Tomtom Model.... I think the device is maybe a Nav4 Start 42... A Start 42 would allow the syncing of POI/MyPlaces between both devices ???

A word of caution if both devices are ever likely to be in use at the same time....
Logging out of MyDrive fix for Multiple device using one Account

Thanks YamFazMan,
I checked it just now and you're right - it is a Start 42! Sorry for any confusion,
Cheers,
