You merely have to ensure the TomTom directory on your SD Card is not read only......(I'll bet it is!)

Johnny, when moving files to and from SD Cards, files can become read only - if TomTom can't write to it's directories, it can't save your home location/POI info.....

You should be able to change the file/directory properties in File Explorer ON your iPAQ itself, you can't do it by browsing to the iPAQ from your PC.
