How do I install TT 5.1 on my M5000?

[Guest Grayling]

I am having a problem installing tt5.1 on my m5000.

I have installed tt5.0 successfully by following other posts on this site, but have found that when trying to install 5.1 there is only 1 file (ppcupd510.exe) and this runs the tom tom installer, which in turn brings up a microsoft error.

I need 5.1 installed, as I would want to use the 7 digit postcode facility everyday(this didn't work on tt5.0).

Also I need to activate the GPS control panel.Could someone explain how to, in simple terms please, including how to use a registry editor & which is a good one to use with wm5.

Any help gratefully received.

Many Thanks

I f ound the same thing today when trying to install TT5.1 on the Qtek 9100. I am assuming you downloaded the update from the TT download site?

Well, I did the same and get the same error. I did a search on google for the update file and used that instead (not from the TT site).

Worked a treat this time round and TT 5.1 happily installed on the Qtek.

I will however be reverting to using it on the C500 but that's another story.

Search on google, and you will find the file in its own right. Also, I did not need to use the GPS control panel at all, just works fine setting it up on COM port 8 from the bluetooth settings

I did it by downloading the CAB files for the update, and installed them one by one once again, i thought i'd got them off of the TomTom site but clearly i didn't!

County,

Welcome to the site. As you are a novice the Caps Lock button is on the left-hand side of the keyboard; this should stop the SHOUTING! :)

Get the official file from here

TomTom have now released version 5.2 that is compatiable with windows Mobile 5, i know the old version worked through installing the CAB files, but you can now install it from the TomTom application.
