MapShare issue

Tue Mar 05, 2013 9:24 pm

Hi everyone !
I'm trying to update my map using 'map share' service from tomtom home for this device :

DeviceName=TomTom ONE XL
DeviceVersionHW=ONE XL
DeviceSerialNumber=xxxxxxxxxxxx
BootLoaderVersion=53026
ApplicationVersionVersionNumber=8010
ApplicationVersion=9369
CurrentMap=Europe_1GB_West_905_4800
CurrentMapVersion=905.4800

Everything is patched using last FastActivate, and Home is seeing that my map needs to be updated with MapShare data. Unfortunately, when I'm pressing the 'Update & Install' button, a window is popping up and asking me to connect to MyTomtom account.
I do not own any 'MyTomtom account', so I'm closing this window and .... nothing happens : Mapshare is not updating.
:think:
I probably missed something when patching or maybe there is a trick to enable mapshare updates ?
Any help will be highly appreciated.
thanks.

A couple of TT Home versions back, TT Home started requiring you to log-in to download/update everything. Prior to the change, you only needed to log-in to download purchased items.

Could it be that simple ?
Yes !
Thank you very much for your clever answer to my dumb question... :rolling:
Creating a fake account and logging-in solved my problem.
