How many satellites does Tom Tom GPS use?
Every GPS unit needs a minimum of four (4) satellites to compute a 3-dimensional position, and performs more accurate calculations with more satellites. I think my TomTom is capable of using 12 simultaneous satellites if it can see that many. Yours may be different.
How far up in the sky are satellites?
There are currently 32 GPS satellites Orbiting earth at 20,000Kms above sea level There are also 24 GLONASS satellites (The russian version of a GPS satellite) Which many high end GPS receivers will use in conjunction with the standard GPS satellites. These orbit a little lower than GPS at arond 19,000Kms above sea level. There are 4 Galileo Satellites, which are currently un used, but are the start of the European satellite constealltion which is a work in progress. They orbit at 24,000Kms above sea level. On top of all that, there are 10 Chinese navigation satellites called COMPASS orbiting in an orbit above China and Asia. They orbit at around 21,000 Kms above sea level.
How many satellites needed to get a position?
You need 4 to locate a position. There are 24 satellites in use in the sky with 8 spares.

At least how many satellites are needed to calculate the position?
It takes at least 3 satellites.
Name all the satellites?

Is any kind of satellite stationary in the night sky?
Yes. There are many satellites that are geostationary. That is they remain fixed over the same relative position of the Earth. In the night sky, it would appear to not move in relation to the background stars and other stellar bodies.
