    I'm using a tomtom V3 and i see you can download google map directions on to your tomtom. When i click i the send link it only give's me the option for e-mail and not GPS? I have my tomtom connected to the PC.

    Any ideas :confused:

    How did you figure it out? The Send link on top right of maps only gives me "Email" option. My TT is connected and TTH is started up ...?:confused:

    Did you select the location ? , It only gives you the extra options once this is done .

    You can only search by Business and not the Search Map option. I do think its a bit stupid that you can't search by map, select get directions and send that to your GPS.

    Anyone know if there are any programs out there that can allow you to do this? I'm sure after a few months google will change.

    Guys , I dont know what you are doing wrong

    But I just type in an address , press "search the map" and hey presto . Then select your location and send to GPS.
