Your Go 730 should be running navcore 9.510, if not let TomTom Home software update it for you to that level.

NC 9.510 will let you use a fully featured map with Advanced Lane Guidance etc so the following map should suit your needs and also has meta released so you'll have no problems with activation:

Northern_US_and_Canada_970_7466 = 820.39 MB

Once downloaded:
1. Backup your device using Windows Explorer
2. Move the old map folder from your device to your desktop
3. Extract new map folder to your device (PW: navitotal)
4. Extract FastActivate to the root of your device
5. Run FastActivate.exe from the device and select options 2 & 3
6. Disconnect device from PC and reboot it....job done

You need to re-run step 5 above as it appears that the map isn't activated

FastActivate should report Northern_US_and_Canada-100772.meta => dct OK

When successful a 'Northern_US_and_Canada-100772.meta.dct' file will be created in the map folder

No, not models...they are for different versions of navcore/ different map features/ different devices like Android etc as can be seen on the compatibility chart at the top of this page.

Being as you have a well spec'd device and the latest and best navcore, I have pointed you towards a 970.7466 map which has all of the bells and whistles like Advance Lane Guidance & IQ Routes etc

1. Yes, TT posts free daily map updates, which you download thru TT Home.
2. NO.
3. Maps are Navcore specific, not model specific. As you know, different models use different Navcores, hence the different versions.
I have no idea why fredderf suggested you use a partial USA & C map, instead of the full USA & C map.

OK, just a minor language issue. To us North America means ALL of the USA & C, not just the northern part of the USA & C!!

It will work if you copy ttgo.bif from your device to the root of the SD card. It needs that file to make an informed patch.

Put FastActivate.exe & a copy of your ttgo.bif file in the map folder on the card. Run Option 2
