Has anyone here got the tomtom upgrade programe that works....downloaded the latest one from tomtom and it just doesnt work
Lost my cd disc so I cant install the original version
-
my 300 didnt come with a disc. it was all on the sd card. do you still have that?
-
The device itself works fine
Its the utility you install on the PC to update the tomtom
Looked on the card but no sign :-/
-
i have a tomtom go 300 and dont remember any disc just the card with a product code card.

Appreciate the offer fella :y

i downloaded my iberia map for £40 when we went to portugal, it didnt help find the villa at first but once we got there and marked it as "home" we could go anywhere and get back no problem- money well spent!!
-
Iirc on my old tomtom, i just downloaded the update from the tomtom site and ran that to update it.
My new tomtom510 has an interface/download manager.......maybe this what you have downloaded and doesnt work with earlier tomtoms? :-/
-
I went to the tomtom site and then the pages specific to the go 300 model
(here's a link to prove i'm not imagining it all LOL!!!)

There are a few forums that all state the latest release wont work....just trying to find a previous version
-
i updated my 300 today v6.52 ( wouldn't have done it if i had read this first) however , no problems, looks like its working OK so far, i have already programed it for my next run-out to donington park.
i do have 5.42 backed up , the files you need to replace are data.chk (1meg) , system(0.5meg) , and ttsystem(3.5meg) ( i think) ::)
i may be able to email them to you

I'm not being rude gents but you are all missing the point
the tomtom DEVICE the actual tom tom go 300 that is placed in the car is working fine...100%
Its the management utility you can download from tomtom website; that runs on your PC this is giving me and others aggro
Here's the link again but please DO NOT download this version

Sorry, I'm unable to help as I use PDA version. Have you tried contacting TomTom, though I know they are slow to respond...

Its the program that fires up when you connect the tomtom to your pc so yu can update the device.
Seeing as yours works as you successfully updated the tomtom device any chance can you send me the tomtom program file please?
Thanks,
Andy.
PS I have e-mailed tomtom but not holding out much hope for a reply this month :-/

the software i think you meen is the tom tom 'home' that lets you connect the 300 to the pc.
the file i downloaded is too big for me to e-mail (max 5meg limit).
however, i didn't have a copy on this laptop (it was on the main pc) so i downloaded 'home' at the same time ! this is the link i followed and clicked to download and run the EXE http://www.tomtom.com/plus/service.php?ID=17
