TomTom Go5000 not seen by PC

Hello,

I have a TomTom Go5000 Model: 4FL50 and have read some information on this forum, but I'd just like to check a few things prior to putting it aside.

My understanding is:-

- when hooking this unit up to a pc via usb, the pc cannot see it, correct? I ask as my pc cannot see it but I haven't got MyDrive Connect installed (and don't particularly want to).
- the device is pretty ...

TomTom Start red X at startup

Hello,

I have a TomTom Start that has a flashing red X at bottom right of screen and a harddrive symbol at bottom left of screen.

I've read a few posts regarding using Clear Flash tool, which I've downloaded and run but am unsure if it is doing anything. Can't remember where I downloaded it from and the instructions don't quite match what is being displayed on the screen. If it is doing something it ...

TomTom XXL signal loss

Hello!
I'm experiencing constant gps signal losses.
After format and reinstall, nothing changed.
So i bought another XXL and the issues are exactly the same...
Is it a enormous coincidence?
Is it TomTom attempting to force a sale of a newer model?
I wouldn't mind to purchase a newer model but TomTom stopped the one function i use constantly, the ability to add poi's..
I use gps to work and i need to add customers ...

GO 520 - Smartphone Messages - Really need MyDrive?

Trying to get SMS messages to appear on my TT GO 520.

Seems that I must have the MyDrive app on my phone for it to work?

"If you connect using only Bluetooth, the smartphone messages feature will not be available."

If I just want SMS, is there another way?

Thanks

Windscreen Mount for TomTom GO 520 Wi-Fi (ZN)

I've just got a TT GO 520 WiFi , it came without a windscreen or any other kind of mount and wondered if anyone has seen a good low cost alternative?
I've got a smart phone holder on a flexi stalk that might do the job but it wobbles quite a bit with a phone so am expecting even more wobble with the TT.
Apart from the expensive TT original mounts, all of the mounts ...

I can't find a map 1130_12379

Hi all,

I have a TomTom One V4 and the start of the product code is PE and its navcore is 8.041 (possibility it's 8.41 from my old note taking on how to do this). Anyway, the last time I updated maps was March last year. I have looked on the map checker and it appears 1130_12379 has a tick for my navcore. However, when I go to browse around the part of the site ...

Start 25 - Can't connect to tomtom.com/getstarted

Probably an old question but am hoping that there's an alternative to the 'getstarted' web page that no longer exists.

I got a TT Start 25 today that looks like it has maps from 2013 and would like to update it. Is it MyDrive Connect that I need? If so, I'm having all sorts of problems getting it to run on an old XP laptop. I'm a Linux user so don't have anything but the ...

TomTom XXL 540TM

Bought one from eBay this week more for nostalgia than anything else, but would still like to use it. It has 'lifetime map updates'. Im still waiting for it, but I now find that it may be missing a code to unlock the updates. Secondly, is this device eol and if so can it still update? Any advice would be much appreciated.

TomTom One v2 Update?

Hi all,

I recently found my old TomTom One v2 in the back of a drawer and thinking about leaving it in my car glove box as a spare.

Just wondering if anyone can point me in the right direction to update it - appreciate it's such an ancient device that the latest update available for it will be out of date but hopefully it will be newer that I currently have.

In the info ...
