    My old tom tom rider 2, has stopped navigating and I received a e-mail from tom tom saying.. Due to the week number rollover that occurred on 6 April 2019 it will no longer navigate. has anyone else experienced this?
    And is there a fix for it.

    I got the same email but my Tom Tom is a version one that I’ve had a long time, no updates are available when I plug it into the pooter and I’m yet to try it since the email. Hope it’s gonna be ok, it’s got the Europe map which will be helpful for our holiday in Cyprus in June. Alternative will be to buy a new map for the newer Tom Tom so I’m hoping I can get away without doing that.

    Yes I had the same message. They said they were working on a fix for them. My totom is 2006 rider pro.

    Tried my old version one yesterday and it’s scrap, won’t pick up the gps signal. Haven’t been able to update it for a while now so not surprised really.

    i can get the signal but it fails to set the time. always shows 00:00.
    A bit weird as it does sync with the sats and displays the correct time in the settings but reverts back to 00:00 on the main screen.
    This means it cannot display what the eta is for my trip but it does tell me how long it'll take to get there.
    Tomtom rider 2 btw.

    went out with My Tom Tom rider 2 today and it won't work. won't connect to a satellite. will use my Tom Tom V5 tomorrow which appears to be working but won't update on the computer. Thinking of getting a Garmin next time, never used one. been reading reviews and thought the Zumo 395 LM, might be ok. any thoughts would be appreciated. I don't listen to music or use a phone. Just put in A to B directions each time. listen to spoken directions through my Sena smh5 intercom.
    keep it simple and basic. do tour Europe each year so need coverage.

    Mine wouldn’t show a new map so I had to revert back to an older map and it then worked.
    However, it’s not showing the time (as per previous post)
    Unwilling to pay out for a new one as I’m waiting for the new module for the rs which will display on the screen and syncs with google maps
