No problem, Post back if you still get problems.

Yes there is a meta file in the Mpas folder , removed the maps and autoactive folders and extracted them both from the file on my laptop to my SD card , still getting the same messge ????

Does AutoActivate show any error messages like no meta.txt or ttgo.bif not found?

no ,it runs fine , all the way through to the " hit any key " message , is it worth trying to load another map rather than this one , to see if that works ?

"This is not the correct activation code for this map" means the map hasn't been patched properly.

Let's start from the beginning...

Download [color="red"]United_Kingdom_and_Republic_of_Ireland_865_3262[/color]
Download [color="red"]AutoActivate[/color] from this thread.

Delete the map folder and Auto/FastActivate.exe from your SD card.

Extract the map folder and AutoActivate. [color="red"](Password: navitotal)[/color]

Copy both the map folder and AutoActivate to your SD card using a card reader.

It should look like this...

\United_Kingdom_and_Republic_of_Ireland_865_3262\CLINE.DAT, CNAME.DAT etc
\AutoActivate.exe

Not...

\United_Kingdom_and_Republic_of_Ireland_865_3262\United_Kingdom_and_Republic_of_Ireland_865_3262\CLINE.DAT, CNAME.DAT etc
\United_Kingdom_and_Republic_of_Ireland_865_3262\AutoActivate.exe

Run AutoActivate.exe on your PC, You must have an active internet connection!

Possible problems...

You say you're using navcore 7.910, I've not had much success with this navcore, 7.450 is more stable.
Incorrectly set-up mapshare can cause problems, Is there a ttgo.bif in the root of the SD card

If the map is patched correctly there will be a newly created United_Kingdom_and_Republic_of_Ireland-309.meta.dct file in the map folder.

Still no joy , how do i change my Navcore from 7.910 to 7.450 maybe thats the problem ??

Comfirm there is a ...meta.dct file (there is a .meta already)

Delete everything to do with Tomtom off your SD card.
Copy the navigator folder from the above archive onto your SD card.
Place SD card into device and start Tomtom
It will say "no maps" in french
Turn off device and put SD card into card reader on PC
Copy map folder and AutoActivate.exe to your SD card
Run AutoActivate.exe
Place SD card into device and start Tomtom again
Language setting is on preferences page 6 with a icon of some flags
GPS settings are Other NMEA Receiver, Baud 57600, Com:7
Tomtom will crash as soon as it gets a satellite lock, Just restart and it will be fine.

OK before i patch there is no meta file in the Map folder , after i patch the meta file is there so all thats happening correctly . Just loading map from another source just incase , if no joy will try changing to 7.450

the link provided comes up with the title " wedding photos " which wont complete and then i get a virus message on my antivirus ???

I'll reupload for you later...

Out of interest, Did you install the mapshare hack?

Mapshare hack ?? do you mean the " navitotal " password ?

No. The hack to get Tomtom mapshare updates on your device.

no have not installed a mapshare hack ( or not that i am aware of ) , could that be the answer ??
