My new tomtom is stuck on a screen that has a picture of the tom tom and a flashing red X. resets wont shift it - either what does the X mean ? or is there a way round it ?
Thanks for any help

I read thru this,, created a back up, reformatted,, HINT.. when removing your device from your computer, go to tools> remove device ( or whatever is says) that is the safest way
That's a sign the unit cannot find the operating system and is usually caused by removing the unit from the connection before all data had been written to memory. Do not detach when TTHome says it is safe to disconnect. Rather, wait till the unit boots to the screen asking about connecting to computer. Say 'no' and then you can shut down and remove the unit. - some more info..

A tech support rep asked me to check to make sure Spotlight is ignoring your mounted Tomtom GPS device. Once I excluded it from Spotlight, the problem went away.
