Question

[cajun]

I just made a trip to Atlanta and My 720 gave me the directions to Emory Hosp. where I was going but I went a few different roads than it wanted me to go. I believe my way was alot easier. Is there any way for me to program my way into the 720 since I will be going back there a few more times?

I went to Google maps and ploted my way but I do not know how to copy it and download it into my 720. Any Help outthere???????

Google maps works great. Very simple once you get the hang of it.

I went to that site and planned out my route and copyied it into the space and hit make ITN and every thing disapeared. Where does it install it on your home computer so you can get it and down load it to your SD card or into the 720??

Make sure you slightly move the green dots for your starting point and destination on the map. Apparently you have to do this in order for Google Maps to insert the necessary coordinates. Then when you click to make the route file you should see a popup allowing you to save the file that was generated.

Here's an alternative site with better instructions:

I guess IM stupid!!! Still unable to get it on any site. If someone knows how to do it please IM me and I will send you the address and maybe you can email me back the ITN.

Cajun, if you will PM me a starting point and destination I'll see what I can do.

Did Google Maps draw your desired route? If so, I will need to insert enough intermediate points on the Goodle map to force TomTom to follow that route and not default to the route TomTom wants to take you.

Hondo, sent you a IM it also has the google map with the route that I want attached to it.
