I've been trying to find a way to install individual maps for my Artemis but it seems I am stuck with TomToms BS way of dealing with them.

Ok, so I start Tom Tom home and look for CH... I only see DE, AT & CH. +all major EU roads... and I think to myself, "heh, no, I'll stick to CH only thanks". WRONG. Tomtom will not let me.:mad:

I don't want to install Austria and Germany if I want my CH map... Why on earth do I have to do that?? I only want the CH map, plain and simple, that's it, I'll install AT and DE when I want/need!!... It takes up 300 MB off my SD card on stuff I will not use anyway:mad:

Then I try to calm down and think "hmm maybe CH is too small for it to be worth the bother thus they decided to fuse it to the others"... THEN I SEE CANARY ISLAND worth just over 3MB...arrrrrghhhhh!!! why why why :(


Anyway, sorry for the rant but I needed to let the steam off. Now, does anyone of you know of a way on installing CH (or any fused map for that matter) individually?

Help would be much appreciated.

Cheers:cool:

You might be frustrated mister, but still your language is offending, even with the ***'s.

Here we 'act' like gentlemen (and women)

as you mentioned the map you have includes all the coutries (Ger, Aut, Ch + major EU roads).
So you cant extract or what ever only one coutry.
Go to the tomtom page and see if you can buy a map only for your loved CH or live with the FREE Ger and Aut maps

Cheers a german guy...

astrodemoniac - what version of TomTom Navigator version are you using? (I will assume that you upgraded to the 6.03 on the HTC site).

What version of TTN Maps are you using?

*TomTom NAVIGATOR 6 - Software & Maps of Western Europe on DVD
*TomTom NAVIGATOR 6 - Software & regional maps on memory card

Edited for the easily offended.

I hope you really "'are" gentlemen (and women) otherwise if you only "act" then it'd be rather hypocritical ;)

Ok, the fact the software comes bundled with the device doesn't mean it's FREE as you want to point out. I paid for the device and believe you me that they do charge you for it ;)

Oh and it's not about my "loved" CH and hated evil "DE,AT" it's about choice. What I need and what I don't. In my case, I don't need the other countries, why should I have to waste over 200MB of my card's space on it. Sorry if I am not a conformist.

Of corse your are right, you have/had to pay for it, but there is no CH only map available für TomTom as you can see on www.tomtom.com . And as i mentioned there is no way (i think) of extracting the CH part of the DACH package.

And its a pitty i can't "delete" or what ever the A/CH part of my DACH map, so i could save space too.

Canary Island, you say? Just hold a second! Sure you are using an official version? Canary Island was used to activate some cracked maps with new tomtom versions! Afaik, no other reason for this map to be there!

Well it's there, what are you implying?:mad:

I am surely not the only one with an Artemis Premium so I'd suggest you go inform and educate yourself by asking others before making stupid comments.

Sure, thanks for helping :)
