OK, TomTom on the Artemis is really getting the best of me. I downloaded my one free USA map that comes with the device. I liked what I saw, so I decided to purchase another USA regional map from TomTom's site. The description said that you needed Navigator 5 or 6 for the map to work.
Long story short, I can't get the built-in TomTom app to recognize my purchased map (Plains USA). I've moved it around to different directories on my 1 GB microSD with no luck anywhere.
I've emailed TomTom support three times in the past week with no response. Anyone else in the USA getting TomTom to work beyond the one free map?
I have had the 'North America' map working with TT6. Sounds like you may have a TT5 map.
I did the same thing and did speak to customer service at TomTom. The download maps do not work with the Artemis version of the software. I was told that I would have to buy the full version for the US which comes with all US/Canada maps. On a good note, they did refund my purchase price for the non-functioning maps.
I think that TomTom 6 can recognize TomTom 5 maps but TT 5 cannot seem to recognize TT 6 maps. I have TT 5 installed from the factory on my HP 6915 and I have TT 6 added on as an upgrade. My full US map for TT6 shows in TT6, as does the TT5 map of Chicago, but in TT5 the only one that shows is the map of Chicago.
I just went ahead and got the North America map so I wouldn't have to mess around with individual cities and ending up off of the map.

Am driving from England (skegness) to Poland (katowice) for the new year , what's the best idiot proof gps mapping software package to buy + gps receiver for that part of the world ?, to be used on the mda pro ?
After reading this forum it seems these 2 are the best:
Leadtek GPS 9553X Bluetooth GPS Receiver
and
Globalsat BT338
Thanks in advance.
probably the most popular sofware in Poland is automapa http://www.automapa.com.pl/
Hi everyone!
I just had my O2 Xda Orbit delivered three days ago and decided to order as well the CoPilot Live package as I will be using the GPS quite a lot. I spoke to O2 Customer Services before they sent me the whole lot to ask them to send me the CoPilot Live box with the Western Europe maps... They told me that it shouldn't be a problem as the O2 Orbit was released as well in Germany so I expected that package with those maps but guess what?, they sent me the UK & Ireland maps only...
After a few phone calls to O2 Business Customer Services, they told me that "O2 UK would only supply UK & Ireland maps" and for the Western Europe ones I would have to upgrade them from the ALK Technologies website and "they probably would charge me something"...
My question is: is it worth getting that upgrade or should I better return the CoPilot package to O2 and get TomTom 6 for the Orbit? Any experiences on those 2 programs in the Orbit so far? Which one do you think runs better? And which one has an easier installation?
Your opinions will be appreciated... Thanks!
Hi, I had the same problem and finally managed to get the upgrade direct from http://www.easydevices.co.uk/pp/Software/COPILOT_LIVE_6_EUROPEAN_UPGRADE_FOR_O2_XDA_ORBIT.html . I haven't used the European maps yet but am off over Christmas so will let you know how I get on. The UK maps seem all good so far and I haven't got lost yet!

Anyone got any ideas where i can get a Republic of Ireland Map for TTN6 and Also The Speed Camera pack?? and updates Ect??
Thanx People
Ireland Maps
On the tomtom site you can get the UK and Ireland map for 50€
but why drive in Ireland ? Better drink as much Guinness as you can
This is the one I use. TomTom_Great_Britain_and_Ireland_v.675.1409
I did see it on the Piratebay once. ;-)
I don't think there's any Speedcamera updates for it or Traffic. If you subscribe to TomTom you can get traffic updates, but I can't imagine we need it in Ireland. There are only a few bad spots, i.e. all major cities. ;-)
I am a long time mapopolis fan, recently downloaded to Hermes, and am unable to find North American map pack w/o gps. can anyone help? Las Vegas a must ( This years vacation )
Dunno if someone will pm you about it or not, but, it looks like mapopolice went out of business. And this isn't a warez site.
Maybe google maps will help you?
Hello everyone,
I've recently moved to Germany and had my U.S. spec Ford Edge with Sync 3 shipped over. Unfortunately, navigation doesn't work and the Germany Ford dealerships have said there's nothing they can do aside from removing the entire system and shipping it to a third party for over $1,000 and 2 weeks worth of work to get it to function. I'm of the opinion that there's cheaper (found things for around 249 euro but still requires removing the entire unit and shipping it to another country) and easier ways to do this but have no idea how.
Any help or suggestions are greatly appreciated!
US Spec Ford Explorer
Where you ever able to find a solution? I ordered a US Spec Ford Explorer and thought it would be an easy addon to include EU maps.
hello, I'm making EU Sync3 USA maps without pulling out the radio. The radio condition must have the NAV icon. Price: 300Euro
