Unfortunately, transferring itn files is not supported. The newest devices connecting to the myTomTom Support Application are using a different way to travel to waypoints.

Article Waypoints (TomTom Knowledge Base) hyperlink

Using Waypoints in itinerary planning

From application version 10.500, you can plan routes with up to 4 extra stops before reaching your final destination. To plan a route that travels via one or more stops follow these steps: Tap Navigate To… or Plan route from the Main menu and plan a route to your final destination. Your navigation device calculates your route and a summary of the route is shown. Tip: You can view the route summary at any time by tapping the right-hand side of the status bar at the bottom of the Driving View. Tap Change route at the bottom of the route summary screen. Tap Travel via... Add your first stop. Tap Change route at the bottom of the screen to add more stops. Note: Tap The arrow next to a stop to change the order of your stops or to remove a stop. Tap Done to update the route. For routes with more than one stop, the order of the stops is optimised automatically based on the distances between them.

Web Based System

The new devices are using a web based system, which means that they connect to the computer as a Lan connection on its own network. The contents of the device are hidden so its not possible to access the drive through windows explorer like it was possible with other devices.

This is probably be done to prevent piracy, and also to prevent users from removing, editing,.. files so the system would become unusable.

Hi Mike, and welcome in a Brave New World : the World of TT considering that you're not using your device to travel

As Stefan states it, it is not possible so far to transfer *.itn files into the device memory.

We are many to demand that this feature is restored in the new device by any mean. I have created a specific thread here, and added also this feature in the wish-list thread.

Hope some TT guys are sometimes wandering on this forum, and I wish they will understand very soon that we NEED this feature.
