If your TomTom GPS model number (when you originally purchased it new) is shown with an "M" ... e.g. GO 730M ... it indicates that the TomTom GPS unit you'd purchased includes free lifetime maps (updates) just for the map included in that unit, e.g. USA and Canada. If it shown with a T, e.g. GO 730TM ... it indicates that it also includes traffic data.
When you register the unit (on the TomTom website), and you log in to the TomTom website (using the TomTom HOME or MyDrive Connect), it will (automatically) tell you if/when you have an updated version of the map to download, to replace the current one on your device.
1. If you have TomTom Home application installed, attach your Tomtom to your PC and run the program. Select update map. Options should be offered with prices. 2. Go to TomTom web site. Follow options for maps. Either download/pay for map or apply for a map on an SD card if preferred. Register it at the given site. 3. There are non-TomTom sites offering maps and keygen/codes to unlock them. Not an appropriate solution, though and my mention of them does not imply that I endorse them in any way.
I had the same problem before on a TomTom GO 730. The free internal memory was too small to hold the updated map so installation failed (the download to PC was OK, the message is misleading). It's a TomTom software bug to not check on the available free memory properly before the update process is started. My TomTom device required a new software install from scratch. Remove any excess MP3 or unused voices before you retry the update.
If you have made a recent update this may be the reason you may have lost your FM transmission!!
Tom Tom disabled silent FM transmission on these units to comply with the law in certain countries which prohibit these FM transmissions. Later updates configured the units to output lower strength FM transmissions.
That means you didn't let TomTom Home finish your update before you disconnected. You can do one of two things: reconnect update your device, but if that fails to work, you're going to need to do a hard reset of the device. It is very important to allow TomTom Home to completely finish installing any updates you select before disconnecting or the software may become corrupt.
I have found a solution to this problem by quick-formatting the device and reinstalling the TT Home this time declining the update to a higher version (just in case).
For the faint-hearted, like myself, in the absence of a working backup I recommend copying BEFOREHAND all files from TT Go to an empty folder in your computer (using Windows not TT Home). This way if you do not succeed at least you can go back to the position before the format.
