UK Maps
p.s. just "funny" part about Early Maps Access ... I had to (rather) roll-back this time ... so I do not know if my 97% estimate was right ;). This was due to combined ID overflow, so several September regions are now recomputed and will b…

france-map to be split?
There is an issue with split France OSM, in particular small islands on the west and probably also the south part of France. Because four parts are lists of relations the sea is missing, and during processing it basically cuts off the bridges :( ...…

Error message of Failed to add a Routing point. How do I fix?
Do you have map for that particular coordinate? Is there a road near-by? Can you try it by setting routing point from directly in the map (so that you see the area)?

media key and activation key
What product do you have? Media key is the key when you bought the PC/Pocket Navigator/OCX/Map Explorer. Activation key is result of activation your media key for given device.

Intalling v.14
The maps are at the moment interchangeable, but it can later change ... 14.1 for example supports (future) split of Canada OSM and Russian Federation OSM, while ver 12 does not. Also 14.1 handles data for more precise speed description, but it is no…

Intalling v.14
I expected that you do not have anything installed - so it is probably picking old installation. Please delete setup*.exe files in c:\ProgramData\Navigator\14.0\Install (maybe different version directory) ... it should download 14.1 Edit: you can d…

No, you do not need ver12 - but make sure you have always selected Early Access (at the moment).

Cycle route takes prohibited road
At the moment it is "expected" (no extra attributes for bikes) and this will hopefully change within couple months with new table for pedestrian/bike routing.

Test of Android version 1.3.xx
@Joopy - if you do not want direct link, you can still use Google Play, but get access to Navigator "beta" via https://plus.google.com/communities/105361758524129041578... probably today I will upload on both places 1.3.32(?). Edit: http:…

Saving route with blocks
The blocks are not part of the route (at the moment). What is maybe worse that road blocks are related/linked to given map so if you update your map you loose them (I am not 100% sure about it now). There is a "ticket" to re-snap it by coo…

Navigator 14
please select "Early map access" and you should get update now p.s. I expect issues as last time, so you may have to delete old installation in order to force it to download new PC/Pocket/PND Navigator FREE 14.1.x

I am not sure what do you mean. Both types are available via "the normal download function". It is a week since UK was converted so now (or for sure rather tomorrow) you will get the same UK map independently of your "Early maps acces…

1.3.x has extra buttons for "composite countries" (Germany, France, UK) in map downloader - i.e. under United Kingdom you should see also UK postcodes

Can somebody confirm chattiewoman 1.3.26 behavior (dialog "Current Text to Speech engine does not support selected voice. You may want to choose another engine or language.")? We are not able to repeat it - I suppose German IVONA sounds.

UK Maps
The "Early maps" are for 97% (guess) identical to "Stable maps", they are only for one week delayed. Because processing/conversion/upload is all automatic we do not have chance to check all maps of the whole world. So this way en…

well - I do not know, but from mine point of view the Tomas and Chattiewoman coordinates are "almost identical" ... I supposed that you are discussing two unnecessary maneuvers (in both cases 1 and 2) and not exact location (of arrow, junc…
