Thumbs up TomTom One

Hi have bought a second hand TomTom One but without instructions, have mastered most but can't seem to find the space button for entering a postcode, ie cf3 then i need a space before the next number, but i can't seem to do this? Any ideas or help would be grateful

i am sure you dont need a space in mine, set the keyboard as a qwerty one and there should be a space at the bottom mate

Unhappy

Right found and done that but still can't make out why its not doing it. If i enter for eg. just say yo4 then if i need again just say 4rt it comes out as yo44rt and it gives you a totaly the wrong des: the postcode should read yo4 4rt and not yo44rt?

It must be me have tried what everyone has said but still not working right, i'll have to find someone to look at it as its easier to go through it when someone else is looking at it with you. Everything else seems fine, cheers for your help

Go to tomtom website, download their software, plug in tomtom and download latest software onto it. As above though I've never needed to use a space and i've never had a problem!

i may be wrong but if your putting the postcode in the address section it wont work. it must be put in the postcode section.... this is about the only thing i can think of.... IF YOU HAVE THE USB CABLE, PLUG IT IN AND PLUG IT INTO YOUR COMPUTER.. GO TO WWW.TOMTOM.COM.. CLICK ON SUPPORT AND THEN ON THE RIGHT HALF WAY DOWN THE PAGE IS DOWNLOADS. IT SAYS MANUALS IN THERE, HERES THE LINK
