I recently "upgraded" my 920 for the first time since April 08 (probably "ever") to v 8.302.
Then I noticed that the "voice over FM" had gone - so I followed instructions elsewhere to roll back to 8.010
My maps are "old, and so the roll-back worked without problem ... but now my Favourites are missing.
Each time I copy the MapSettings.cfg file to the Western Europe (WE) directory it gets wiped before I can use it.
Oddly, my US favourites are fine, just the WE ones.
I have looked in this forum and tried "safely removing hardware" - but that makes no difference.
I read about the "work around" - to access the favourites from my PC using "Home". However, when I run Home to operate my TomTom it simply comes up as if there are no favourites ... even thought I can "see" the MapSettings.cfg file in my Explorer window ! Trying to add a new favourite simply creates a new MapSettings.cfg with the one new favourite.
I have even tried switching to the Guam map, creating a Guam favourite, copying my WE MapSettings.cfg files and then re-booting. When it comes on (in Guam) the new Guam favourite is still there. I can even see the correct MapSettings.cfg in WE.
But if I switch maps to WE it blanks my favourites file.
It seems to be that the act of booting up in WE, or switching to WE blanks my WE favourites out.
HELP !!!

Graham
