How Do You Transfer Favorites From One TomTom to Another?



1. Connect the first TomTom to your computer using the device's USB cable, and then confirm the connection on your TomTom. The TomTom Home software will launch--close the application.

2. Select the 'Open folder to view files' option in the AutoPlay menu that appears in Windows operating systems. In Mac operating systems, the TomTom will appear as a new removable storage icon on the desktop--open the storage drive.

3. Open the Map folder associated with the favorites that you want to transfer. For example, if your favorites where from New York, you'd open your 'North America' folder or if they where from Ontario, you'd open the 'Canada' folder. Copy the 'MapSettings.cfg' file from the folder to your desktop.

4. Disconnect the first TomTom. Connect the second device to your computer, and then navigate to the map folder on your computer--open the map folder.
