I was recently tempted into upgrading my trusty old GO LIVE to a spanking new 5100, in no small part due to the Lifetime Maps and Cameras. And the fact that the old thing would often fail to connect to TomTom's servers for extended parts of my journeys.

I travel long distances daily to particular locations, and have built up over the years a large POI file of these locations (added to all the time as I visit new ones); and also 'via' locations to force navigation on certain roads set up using 'Itinerary Planning' picking these 'via' points from another POI file.

After an amount of fighting (and help from answers here and on TomTom's own forums) I eventually got the POI files loaded onto my new device.

What I'm struggling with now is setting up an equivalent 'itinerary' with several waypoints from my 'via' file, whilst the destination is picked from the 'locations' file.

What am I missing?

IIRC you can only add 3 waypoints, on the newer models, to a route.

Does This help?

Sort of ... but I still can't pick that/those waypoint(s) from my own, other, POI file.
