good

Looks like the updates for this GPS are simply downloaded and put onto the SD card. You can do this with any computer. Follow the link at the bottom of this comment for instructions. Just ignore the Microsoft Windows references, Windows does NOT appear to be required. Also note that you DO NOT need Winzip on a Mac, ZIPing and unzipping is built into Mac OS X. https://motorola-global-portal.custhelp.com/ci/fattach/get/593429/1361471480/redirect/1/session/L2F2LzEvdGltZS8xMzg5MTA3MzQ1L3NpZC95SGpCcE5KbA==/filename/MOTONAV%20Web%20Download%20Install%20Instructions%20v8.pdf

HOLD THE ON/OFF BUTTON DOWN FOR APROX. 8 SECONDS,THEN TURN THE UNIT BACK ON AND IT WILL RESET. TAKES A MINUTE OR SO TO DO THIS

I am not familiar with that model.

Phones don't connect to seperate GPS devices typically.

I have Motonav TN765 . . . How do you delete past recent trips?

Hi.

You may have to reset the GPS. To reset the TN20, press the Power button for 8 seconds, then press Power button again to turn on.
You can also use a pin to press the Reset button when the TN20 is on. The reset button is on the bottom right side of the GPS.


Hope this helps. Good luck.

Unless Motorola US can supply you wish Australian maps, you may need to stash it away for your next trip over there. Appears the Motorola TN30 uses Navteq mapping, so contact Navteq Australia in Richmond, Vic and see if they can assist.

I do not see that Motorola offers any Oceania maps for sale, but Nav n Go should. I would explore their web site although I did a quick look and did not see any. There are torrents out there of AU maps and from what I am seeing the install can get involved and usually seems to need a PND with a SD card slot to execute. Does the TN30 have a SD slot?

Hope this helps.

Hi!
Gotcha covered I think!

Hope this helps.

GPS SYSTEMS HAVE A TENDENCY TO LOSE CONNECTIVITY TO SATILLITES BECAUSE OF BAD WEATHER, CLOUD COVER, TUNNEL ENTRANCE, BAD OR NO POWER, BATTERY LIFE HAS BEEN EXPENDED, HAZARD OF ELECTROMAGNETIC INTERFERENCE TO GPS SYSTEMS, AND IMPROPER VEHICLE MOUNTING AND HAND HELD POSITION. FREE SOLUTIONS 1. ALWAYS PLACE YOUR GPS DEVICE IN THE UPPERMOST PORTION OF YOUR VEHICLE SO THAT THE GPS SIGNAL MAY EASILY LOCATE YOUR DEVICE EVEN WHEN THE WEATHER IS BAD 2. KEEP YOUR BATTERY CHARGED ONLY WHEN IT NEEDS IT MOST AND AVOID CHARGING OFTEN 3. IF YOU OVERCHARGE YOUR GPS DEVICE, YOU WILL EXPERIENCE BATTERY LEAKAGE, WHICH CAN EAT AWAY AT YOUR CLOTHING, DESTROY YOUR DEVICE IN SECONDS, AND CAUSE DAMAGE TO YOUR VEHICLE SEATS 4. YOUR GPS DEVICE HAS A TENDENCY TO FREEZE BECAUSE OF THE SIM AND MEMORY CHIPS LOCATED WITHIN IT 5. YOU CAN FIX THE FREEZING PROBLEM BY REMOVING THE SIM CHIP AND MEMORY CHIP AND RESTARTING YOUR SYSTEM 6. OTHER FREEZE PROBLEMS OCCUR BECAUSE THE DEVICE IS COLD WHEN IT IS KEPT IN THE VEHICLE AND CHIP CREEK OCCURS WHERE THE DEVICES MICROCHIPS BECOME LOOSE AND TIGHTEND BECAUSE OF WARM AND COLDER AIR FLUCTUATIONS. IT IS BEST TO KEEP THE DEVICE IN A PURSE OR ON A TABLE WHERE IT IS NOT SUBJECT TO CONSTANT TEMP. CHANGE 7. PREVENTION OF ELECTROMAGNETIC INTERFERENCE IS BEST SOLVED BY: interference from devices located nearby, and even a radio turned on and located really close to your unit. This is normally known as electromagnetic interference to electronics and is very common

You may leave the device turned on until the battery goes dead. Return the device to charge for several hours then power up once again.
