I want to install Tyre using TomTom HOME, but I don’t know how to do that.
See Installing Tyre.
After starting up Tyre, I don’t see a map. What can I do?
Most likely your computer is infected with malware, that is prohibiting the map to be displayed.
Use the malware scanner from Malwarebytes to clean your computer: www.malwarebytes.org/products/malwarebytes_free
For your information: some people who were thinking that their computers were free from malware, because they were using a malware scanner themselves already, discovered that the scanner from Malwarebytes detected some other malware, and that removing that malware solved their problem!
Tyre is very slow or seems to freeze. What is going on?
This behaviour occurs when MS Internet Explorer is not installed on your system or when it is not up-to-date. Furthermore it may occur when your file contains a lot of waypoints or POIs. It is just Windows slowing down as memory fills up.
Depending on the number of waypoints or POIs and the speed of your computer, Tyre may seem to hang. It is not really hanging, but it might take a lot of time for the activity to complete.
We recommend to use a maximum of 100 waypoints or POIs for one file. If there are more, split the file, using ‘Split’ or ‘Reduce’ from the ‘File’ menu.
Is there a Tyre version for Mac computers?
We have lots of plans to port Tyre to other platforms. But since we are just a small company, it will take some time to realise them.
For the time being, you might consider installing a Windows emulator (like WINE, a piece of free software) on your Mac. It will create a Windows environment on your computer. You can use that environment to run Tyre.
On opening the map, I get an error message.
There might be an error in the settings of your Internet Explorer. Follow these steps:
