OK, TomTom on the Artemis is really getting the best of me. I downloaded my one free USA map that comes with the device. I liked what I saw, so I decided to purchase another USA regional map from TomTom's site. The description said that you needed Navigator 5 or 6 for the map to work.

Long story short, I can't get the built-in TomTom app to recognize my purchased map (Plains USA). I've moved it around to different directories on my 1 GB microSD with no luck anywhere.

I've emailed TomTom support three times in the past week with no response. Anyone else in the USA getting TomTom to work beyond the one free map?

I have had the 'North America' map working with TT6. Sounds like you may have a TT5 map.

I did the same thing and did speak to customer service at TomTom. The download maps do not work with the Artemis version of the software. I was told that I would have to buy the full version for the US which comes with all US/Canada maps. On a good note, they did refund my purchase price for the non-functioning maps.

I think that TomTom 6 can recognize TomTom 5 maps but TT 5 cannot seem to recognize TT 6 maps. I have TT 5 installed from the factory on my HP 6915 and I have TT 6 added on as an upgrade. My full US map for TT6 shows in TT6, as does the TT5 map of Chicago, but in TT5 the only one that shows is the map of Chicago.

I just went ahead and got the North America map so I wouldn't have to mess around with individual cities and ending up off of the map.
