TomTom 340TM: how do you delete the unused voices?
63652
Use the TomTom Home software that comes inside the GPS. When you hook up your GPS to your computer with usb, you should be able to see the TomTom device drive. Open it, find the setup program and install TomTom Home software. You can manage anything you want using the software including deleting unused voices etc etc.

Yes you can. If you already own the unit, hit the button toward the bottom of the unit. Not the big round one, but the small one. You should get a slightly musical tone. Hit the down arrow until you do not hear that tone anymore, then hit the small round button 3 times. The audio should be gone at that point.

Hello Simon, Unfortunately no. You can turn off the voice prompt, so you will not here the voice. But the key strike tones are always there. Thanks. Fortress 253 468 0196

I also had this issue. I called TomTom at 866-486-6866 and had the issue fixed within minutes. Their customer service was excellent.

I haven't used mine in about a year, still can't get the files off. As I remember the WAV is the mixed down version, not separate tracks. I need to fool around with it again, get the tracks off and start over. I can't figure the damn thing out.

Yes, you scroll to the file you wish to delete and hold down the volume button. Then select Yes or No. My player came with the complete works of Shakespeare installed. Nice feature, but I deleted them all for more music room.

They offer a speech text service you can purchase after the first free year or something like that. I did not use their service because I use Motospeak for free with my Motorola phone. I only had this device a month before the metal speaker came out and was lost forever making it useless. I replaced with a Samsung Bluetooth.

Sorry, haven't tried to do that, so have no answer. My first thought would be to go to the TomTom website and research their downloads. Good luck.

Laureen, did C.D. Hess' recommendation of selecting a computer voice work out for you?In case you're not familiar with how to select a computer voice, here is the link to the step-by-step instructions on TomTom's website:http://us.support.tomtom.com/cgi-bin/tomtom_us.cfg/php/enduser/std_adp.php?p_faqid=8494

How did you delete the audios? Did you reformat the recorder, or delete them off the recorder one by one, or cut and paste onto your computer?

Gosh, I really don't know! I would contact TomTom and ask them. I think that you can purchase other country maps but not really sure. Your best bet is to contact the company and see for yourself. I'm sorry that is all I can tell you. Good Luck.

I had this problem too. On the TomTom Home application, the computer voices were listed as not being usable by the device (even though they came pre-installed on the device). I tried the factory reset (holding down power button on the unit for 15 seconds until it restarts). This did not work. Then I followed the instructions to reinstall the TomTom application on the device from here: http://www.tomtom.com/9091 . This worked. I also should have tried restarting the TomTom Home application before or after the factory reset of the device. That may have worked.

The TomTom operates either on its internal memory, or on the SD card. If you want it to use the maps on its internal memory, turn it on without the card inserted. If you want it to use the maps on the card, plug the card in, before you turn the unit on. If the maps are obtained in the correct way, the card will also be loaded with an up to date operating system. It is the lack of this that is your problem. It does happen that downloads become corrupted in some way, so it may help to plug the TomTom into your PC, connect on-line to TomTom and try an update. Could be that any corrupt data is replaced, allowing the unit to operate normally.

I have the older model TomTom XL-S and know that ONLY the computerized female or male voices will actually speak the street names. All other voices included with the GPS are "real" voices and therefore cannot speak the actual street names, just the generic type directions as you mentioned. I don't know if your newer model TomTom is the same, but it sounds to me like it might be. Hope this helped!

Actually, I get around this problem by using an Open Source program called "Audiobook cutter" to split very long files into tracks of about 5 minutes in length. That way I can skip from track to track with one click of the 'forward' or 'backward' directional buttons. Here's a link: http://www.audiobookcutter.com/products.htmlI find the free edition perfectly adequate to my purposes, and have used it for several years -- ever since I started downloading audiobooks from our local library system's electronic resources: Library2Go and Overdrive.

You can download new voices with the Garmin app from Garmin.com. It can hold as many as you like.
