    Hi there just found your video and my sat nav is frozen showing the “no gps signal” message. Please could you help me with the software side, ie, what site do I go to for the software and do I need to create an account there first. I struggle to turn my MacBook on ( yes I’m useless 😅) so a step by step guide would be really appreciated. Totally understand if you don’t have the time, thanks.

    Hi. I am really struggling with mine. Started off by telling me No GPS Signal mid journey. I downloaded Smart Media Connect onto my laptop. Paid for a subscription. Did an update. Now says No Maps Found. Tried uninstall and install again. Still same message 😭

    Hi there, great video. I have a mac - how did you get the mac software download? the link you shared doesnt work for macs... any help appreciated. Thanks

      Hi, I have just checked on my Mac, you may be doing something wrong...
      firstly. go to the latest link in the Smart location... ( I used the link in the comments that's all and not work) let it download to the folder with the downwards arrow...
      You don LAUNCH it ... you just drag and drop it into the usb stick .... it auto runs from there into the SMART User Interface (UI) hope that helps.

      p.s.
      if you have lost your "downloads folder" they this How to access Downloads. You can easily access the Downloads folder is easily accessed from Finder's sidebar. If you don't see it under Favorites, go to Finder > Preferences, and turn it on in the Sidebar tab. You can also quickly get to it from Go > Downloads (Option+Command+L).

    Hi! So far my system recognises USB and then promptly tells me there’s no music! 😂which of course is exactly right, however!
    I see that when I look at the smart media file and launch it on my PC via the file on my usb it says GPS fix update available but install is greyed out. I will give it another go. Now also saying SD card is corrupted which it shouldn’t be as I did the eject on both car and PC… (I have tried doing the update via the SD card but it’s just not playing ball). Your wisdom appreciated!

      Honestly…. I’m thinking either reformat the SD card or try a new one.. some times it can take a few attempts

      @@clareblatchford-hanna4265 yes. You will loose your maps Clare. Reformatting will basically give your SD card a new fresh clean slate for the new maps and updates to cling on to. Quite common for data to become corrupt. A new sd card is only about £8 from Argos not doesn’t need to be huge in storage. In fact from memory it says keep below a certain size … I also used a USB stick to fix another media glitch and it just overwrote onto the sd card. Let me know how it goes?

      Hi. Since this video there must have been an update. Go to the Smart home page. Select your country and search for TOMTOM updates. Same process just a newer link. I had this question a few months ago. Just an updated maps/software since this video was made

      Has it ever worked?
      1-try pressing the home button 5 times quickly. Turn the car off then on
      2-with the car on, eject the memory card
      3-eject the memory card and reinstall the software like in this video
      Look for the fuse and swap it out. See my other video on fuse location and the link to what each fuse does is in the description of that video
      Good luck

      This is quite an old video now and there has been a further update.
      Go to your countries SMART website go to support. Then update your tomtom and you will see your update there.

    I have the basic radio on my 453 Passion cabrio, which has no screen, hence no sat nav. The reason i did not want the fancier system, was my previous 451 had sat nav and had a lot of trouble, like when my car was parked in my garage, it showed up on sat nav in the sea next to my house LOL, so GPS position was highly inaccurate. As for the fancy sat nav system you have, I believe once you do the update, you lose speed camera warnings, as Smart in their ultimate wisdom decided to remove it, as speed camera warning in a car in France, is now a payable fine if you have it, so smart removed it from all European countries.

      The update is a necessary evil I’m afraid. It will either screw up the gos signal or have no signal AND also the update is needed when the clock doesn’t work. To be honest Col… I pop the sat nav to full screen in map only mode and use the audio from Apple Maps 💪😝😝
