Tom tom already has western europe and regions on but we have downloaded map of western USA but tom tom says not enough room/memory. Purchased an SD card but tom tom doesn't like it, guy in shop said all the SD cards are the same. We can transfer the map to the card but is there anything we can do to increse TT memory or make it accept the SD card?
Please help, we go on honeymoon Saturday to California.
many thanks

If you have TomTom that have the slot for SD card, then it should accepted the SD card. The instruction for how to use the SD card is simple, but it is hidden in the TomTom Home, that's why it's difficult to find it. Below are the instruction how to use the SD card.
1. Format the SD card (FAT32) and do not stick the SD in the slot yet
2. Run Backup (connect TomTom device to computer)
3. Disconnect TomTom from computer and turn off
4. Slide the SD into the slot and connect TomTom back to computer (choose "yes")
5. In the TomTom Home menu, Choosen Backup & Restore >>> and choosen Restore
TomTom Home will add all applications to the SD card. So the internal memory still have the applications and the SD card also had the same applications. Everytime you slide the card in, TomTom will automatic detect and use it as its primary storage, if it not detect, you can go to the device menu and pick the device to connect to.
Whenver you take the SD card out, then TomTom will use its internal memory.
Hope this helpful
Make sure the SD Card is formatted as FAT32 and not FAT. My TomTom One XL would not recognize it until I did that.
I think we are up **** creek without a paddle £17 down the drain, I dont believe it
What problem have you got with the SD ? Have you tried to load the map with TomTom Home ? Also, bfore uploading the map onto the sd, did you load the TomTom app in the sd via TomTom Home ?

I can not operate my machine with the SD card left in, it refuses to work even if the SD card has nothing on it?????
yes , have same problem. I purchased online the European maps and when i wanted to upload it onto the GPS it wouldn't take it and i have tried many things including deleting the US map that are preloaded. Nothing seems to work. I get this feeling of having purchased something where I was told this was simple and I am left without support and solution to my problem.
tom tom one xl USA AMERICAS edition won't accept sd card as storage space, why? this is stupid, i would of never bought the tom tom if i would of known this!!! what a waste of 350 bucks!!!
