Posted by TTONE XL How to put a car symbol on the TomTom One XL Others have written that you can add a car symbol to their TomTom One XL, but they say they use a software that ends in .exe. I have a macintosh and .exe programs are for the PC world. Anyone have any ideas how to install car symbols on a TomTom One XL? My wife bought a TomTom One (the small gps device) and it came with five different cars in 'preferences'. I bought the TomTom One XL thinking it would have all of the same features as the TomTom One. But it seems as if TomTom didn't put the old features in the newer Tom Tom. I don't understand why they would not make a newer and more expensive TomTom that didn't have the features contained in their older models. Anyone have any ideas how to put a car symbol on my TomTom One XL. |

I searched forever and finally found in fine print that the map has to be in 3D instead of 2D for anything other than the arrow to show up. |
