i connect it to the imac when it is off, and try with it switched on. neither seems to work.
i have tried a factory reset . nothing changes and tomtom connect does not seem to recognise the device is connected. so i cannot update it.

    Are you connecting the device using the cable supplied with the device?

    Hi
    @callumflett

    Tomtom Home is for the old NAV2 devices
    The NAV3 Via 135 Uses MyDrive Connect to update the device...
