Encountered some difficulties updating my maps through Latest Map Guarantee. TomTom HOME got through downloading the North America maps (it took several hours), but then always got an error message for Western Europe etc.
I gave up on the Western Europe maps, and installed North America using the regular update maps section of HOME. This worked okay at first. But my settings and favorites were missing, so I manually dragged my backup copy of the mapsettings file onto the right place on the TomTom. Now the device goes into an endless loop when starting up, so I'll have to restore the backup using either TomTom HOME or my manual backup.
Once I'm back to square one, I'm wondering whether it might not be better to just manually install the new map files by dragging them. Is this possible (and which files to use?), or do you have to use TomTom HOME to install maps?
