TomTom 3rd - Itinerary

[Doubleex]

I've had my TomTom one for about 2 weeks and have basically "played" with it. No trips yet. Out of the box it has some interesting features that go well beyond my old Garmin eMap. However I am a bit disappointed in something about the interface. Oddly enough I can't quite put my finger on it (no pun intended). I seem to wander through the menus hunting for a function. Once I take a deep breath and settle down I can usually find things yet it seems to continue to happen. Oh well...that's a personal problem.

My question is this - I've created itinerary files using Tyre and loaded them into the TomTom using Tyre. I cannot find a menu option on the TomTom to save a used route or load one that I've dropped in with Tyre.

I've seen some posts about menu hacks and although I'll probably try this - I think it's a bit ridiculous. Which group of people designing a automotive GPS would think that the ability to build an itinerary, load and save them would be less popular than finding HELP???

Can I load these itinerary files without hackng my menu?

Thanks

You did put the iternary file in the itn folder, did you not?

Go to Itinerary Planning and then select Options. You can save and load an Itinerary from there.

There are a lot of menu choices and they are sometimes hard to find. After you use the TT for awhile it gets easier. There is a program called TTMenu that lets you move them around but I would not suggest using it until you have some experience using the TT.

i don't believe the 3rd edition has itinerary planning native to the menu options. although you can add it with menu hacks.
