if you didn’t have a profile… what did you log out of to begin with? By definition, you weren’t ever signed in. I think that you will be fine moving forward with a signed in profile…

 

After an attempted break-in at my house while my car was at a hotel valet a few years ago, I'll never put my home address in the nav again.

I use my neighbor's address. And it just got deleted the other day too.

 

Yeah, I logged out of the Land Rover InControl site on my laptop, where it has the 'sign out of all devices'. I never had a 'profile' and all the destinations were 'starred' as favourites. Then when I logged on in the car, it said 'select which profile', and of course I don't have one, and the only other option was to create a new profile, but different profiles can be added, so where my original entries are no one knows. I don't think a profile is essential to run the navigation, radio etc, except that maybe none of the entries are saved in an update.

BTW, the helpline said even a profile can be deleted when they do an over-the-air update.

 

Sorry to hear that. Yes, safety is always factored in and my 'home' address is nearby. Are you saying you lost just your home address, or all your destinations (if that's so then there are 3 of us on this thread)?

 

@_Allegedly - Sorry for your problems, but that experience has provided a BRILLIANT suggestion to others. Thanks for the tip. I'll be changing mine shortly.

 

I am not sure about the entries not being saved, but if you have an Online Pack with data plan subscription to take advantage of the native apps built into Pivi Pro (Deezer, Spotify, TuneIn and, likely coming soon, Amazon Alexa), you do need to be logged into your InControl account profile in Pivi Pro to install and connect to those apps.

 

Best way to avoid the ‘valet’ hucksters/criminals is to never use a valet service. Case in point: years ago was at a wedding venue and used the valet. Forgot something in the car, so retrieved my keys and proceeded into the basement parking facility. I heard screeching tires and an accelerating vehicle, only to see some 17/18 year old valet zooming through the parking deck, park the car then go running back for the next one. Swore at that moment to never use a valet again. Now when they approach my vehicle, I hand them a 5 or 10 dollar bill and tell them I need to complete some business calls, and ask where I can park it close. If you tip them well they will usually point to a spot close by. Besides, ever note the sign that says
”NOT RESPONSIBLE FOR DAMAGE OR THEFT”. So if there is a scratch or dent, it’s your word against theirs. And I don’t have to hide my radar detector, spare change, sunglasses, phone cables, etc. Those things are known to grow legs when using a valet.

 

I agree with you, years ago while in college I had a part time job as a valet. I was good but other valets….not so much. Exactly why I NEVER valet now! Self park only. 😀👍

Stealimg someone’s home address from the NAV screen is next level though.

 

Never use valets (see below why). As to the whole address thing, I agree with not having it saved in the car for security reasons: the car already can enter my gated community and open my garage, so if the car was stolen, having the home address saved just makes it easier for them to also break into my home! I just saved a nearby commercial location as my address so I can easily get directions and traffic by pressing the "take me home" icon.

Perfect update. Took 35 minutes and Apple CarPlay was a breeze. Awesome. I didn't have to buy a 2022 or 2023 defender 110X!
