If, as I am presuming, this is a download rather than physical purchase could you just put in any address's postcode in the US. Or even use a whole address, especially in huge tower blocks or whatever.

How about:

The Port Authority of NY & NJ
225 Park Avenue South
New York, NY 10003

Obviously if its a physical map you are buying disregard all of above waffle.

bought map direct off the tomtom site,not through home. paid for it but it still does not show up in home....i can understand now why people use "other" ways to put maps on tomtoms.

all done and dusted now....it only took two days. thanks for the help folks.
