    This is because you have not selected a Malcolm, Serena computer voice to read street names.

    Hi @iscom

    Look back here later to see what @VikramK has to say after he has reviewed your units settings on the TT servers. If required he will allocate the voices you want to your account and you can then add them from Settings/Updates and New items page on your GO6200

    Hi
    @iscom
    Welcome to the site....
    Connected over Wi-Fi (MyDrive Connect NOT running on your PC) ...
    On the GO 6200: Check... Tap 4Dot (.... Menu) --> Setting --> Voices... Check for Serena or Malcolm
    scroll up the list as well as down, sometimes voices are hidden/missed above the selected voice....

    On the MDC Window click on My Content...
    Scroll down to the Add Voices menus...
    Are Serena or Malcolm available to install?
    If 'NO' only Tomtom staff ( @VikramK site moderator) will be able to allocate Computer voices for download...

    Hi @iscom
    Welcome to the community!
    Both computer voices have been activated for your TomTom, check for updates now.

    I have also split your comments to a new discussion topic here.

    Thanks,
    Vikram :)

    Sorry for any confusion :)
    The problem was the "New Post" is at the bottom of the page which is not visible.
    I discovered you can't look for updates by just connecting into the PC but you have to run the TomTom windows then shows update Maps , and once again the voices are at the very end of the maps page.
    I am still having a problem downloading a map so will start a new Post
    Thank you for your help
    Regards
    Paul

    Hi


    I have looked on the voices page but can't find Malcolm or Serena. Am I looking on the wrong page?
    Many thanks
