Where do I find my Destinator 6 license key?


The license number is either printed on the inside of the DVD cover or quick start guide. We suggest you make a special note of this number and keep it in a safe location as it identifies you as the owner of a licensed software version.

I've entered my licence and activation keys but still cannot register my map data.


This could be due to one of the following:

One of your codes has been entered incorrectly.
Double check that your license and activation keys are correct, also check that you have entered your Device ID correctly online. If the Device ID entered does not match up to the one generated by the Destinator software the activation key given online will not work.

Old map data -
If you have upgraded to Destinator 6 from a previous version you may still have old map data installed.
When you go the register your map data on the PDA check the date of the map data. If it is not Q1 2006 you have old map data from your previous version of Destinator.
To install the current data uninstall the Destinator console from your PC choosing Automatic for the map removal option. Reinstall the console form the CD and then reinstall the map data to the SD card of your PDA.
close

I've lost the software due to a hard reset / flat battery. When I reinstall, do I need to register the map again?


Yes.
Because you are reinstalling on the same device the device ID number will not have changed so you use the same license and activation keys.



Tip: Many PDA's have a Backup/Restore function that allows you to create a backup file of all your files and applications from your main memory to your SD card. You can restore this file if you loose all your main memory data. See your PDA's user manual for further information.
