Before buying a map
- Depending on the map you purchase, additional memory (e.g. an empty SD card) may be needed. Some devices do not have a SD slot, more information see: Which memory card should I buy for additional maps?
- If you order a map download, a broadband internet connection is required. For more information see: How long does it take to download a map?
- Maps for PDA/mobile phone will only work if you have TomTom NAVIGATOR already installed. Please note that all maps for NAVIGATOR 6 are the latest versions available, released in April 2007. They are only compatible with NAVIGATOR 6. No further versions of these maps will be released by TomTom.
When downloading a new map:
- Accept the latest version of TomTom HOME. If you don’t have HOME installed follow these steps: How do I install TomTom HOME?
- Update the application on your device when prompted. If you do not accept the software update it is likely that your device will not recognise the new map.
- We recommend that you make a backup of your navigation device. For more details about this and for full download instructions, see: Downloading and installing maps.
