Help!!

I downloaded the combined state parks list but can convert it to ov2. I am a avid rv'er ( I pull a travel trailer) and That poi is the best I have found can some one convert it for me or send it to me pm me for email or just post how to fix it.

Thanks!
And Thanks to The person who made it GREAT JOB!!!

Like the title says, I cannot get the the Ruby Tuesday csv to convert to ov2 for the Tomtom, I've tried all csv formats in POIedit and none will recognize it. What am I doing wrong?

OK, I'm a twit.
Apparently, to be active on this site, I have to contribute.

I've looked and cannot find information that I can understand on how I would post a POI. I am using a TomTom XL330 and a Macbook Pro. I did see a post that involved Microsoft Excel, but that's of no use to me.

Is there a way to convert a gpx to an OV2 file? I have routes saved from my Nuvi 760 that are in GPX format that I want to use on a GO730.

Or...is there a way to make a route in TomTom software where you can make a specific route and not let the gps change it? I liked that feature on the 760. I'm not sure if the TT Itineraries works the same.

I've tried to convert the "cracker barrel IL.csv" to ov2 and keep getting this error message: "3 to 4 values expected on line one" I did a search on the forum and see someone else had the same problem. Anyone have any ideas? Thanks. I'd like to get it soonest, I'm going to meet someone in a Cracker Barrel tomorrow.

I'd like to point out a program to you guys. I discovered this program when I was playing around with itineraries. It is a free program called TYRE (Trace Your Route Everywhere) and its made especially to be used with Tomtom. Using the program you can access Google Maps or Google Earth and by clicking directly onto the maps to create waypoints, you can create your itineraries easily. It's a fun program to use and I recommend it to all. This is the link:

Hello

As a Dutchman I just recently found out that I have won a trip to the USA. I may drive with a friend the famous historical Route 66. I will start in Chicago and end up in LA 2 weeks later. The trip will start this saturday 30th of August.

where do i save the KLOVE coords to?

Hi guys, just wondering if anyone's written anything that will read type 8/9/10 ov2s. These are compressed, well the description is at least. I know poiedit reports them as invalid.
Does anything read these?

Has anyone downloaded a file for red light cameras in Canada and USA, so it can be loaded onto TT XL330?

Hi,

I recently converted from a Garmin 200w to a TomTom 720 GO for Tom Tom's functionality.

I'm finding I'm having issue with the power button. How long does one need to hold it down for the unit to turn on?

First I will declare that I am a GARMIN owner/user.

The problem is an ongoing one that a relative has with TomTom.

He bought a new map online for his Go 720. Map size - under 250MB. The download stalled so he could not get the map. Look in the fine print in support (not up-front when buying) and they say his broadband is not recommended - should they say that up front?

Hi, I am new to this site and just got a TT XL 330s. I downloaded the Rest Area POI and converted them to be able to use with TomTom. However, there is not icon next to it . its just a Red square. How do I get the icon to show next to it. i would also like to have the warning sounds.

Every trip I plan I see "Do you need to arrive at a particular time". The manual says under 'Change perferences' then press "Show ALL menu options" so that "Show fewer menu options" is actually displayed that a "Do not ask arrival time" icon should appear. I do not see the icon anywhere.

Why is this icon missing?

I have some POIs and a map I purchased from TT loaded on a 1 Gb SD Card. When I insert the SD in my TT the screen displays an ARROW coming out of the TT SD SLOT and a RED 'X' crossed out on the SD CARD. My TT works fine once I remove the SD Card. The manual or the TT Support pages don't explain this or how to correct it.

Can someone assist me with this? Thank You ALL.

Ernie.

I recently bought a 720 that came with North America map v710.1584 and voice recognition works. My understanding is that the current North America map is v7.20. Does anyone know if voice recognition will still work with v7.20. If not can it be made to work.
Thanks...

Does anyone know about when this map version was released?

Thanks

Hey guys after my first One crapped out Tom Tom sent me another One only this has trouble getting GPS signal. My older unit would grab a signal almost instantly outside and quickly near windows now it takes minutes to get a signal in the car and I couldn't even grab a signal messing around on a bus yesterday (Straight Windows).

Anyone have any idea why TomTom seems to have simply stopped updating the software for the unit included with the Eclipse AVN2210p? I was so excited when I bought this last year, but now it seems like the software is WAY behind when compared to every other TomTom available.
