Apple vs Google maps

This has probably been asked and perhaps answered in the past, but no one knows why Google Maps knows where I live, but Apple Maps is not? The location with Google Maps service locates my exact address, but Apple Maps moves me 50 down a different street. Good thing I know where I live.

Use:

Maps.App > cards > problem with...

They fixed a mistake I reported a few years ago.

If I type my address in Apple Maps it falls a straight pin through the roof. Even gets the room and my position in this right. It must be lucky, but it's just a little scary...

  • I have a scooter that can not go on the road. It is a navigation problem for cards from Apple and Google Maps for the watch. Does anyone have a solution?

    Hello

    I recently got a scooter that goes from a maximum of 40 mph and cannot legally go on the highways. I was worried about navigation on the thing, since I can't hear my phone, but I thought the directions can get sent to my watch. My problem is that Google Maps can really follow the navigation on the watch, so I can still see the signs when I put my wrist; still, he turns back to the lock screen. So I stop, remove my gloves, and pull up the directions. On the other hand, Apple cards can't do navigation for bicycles or avoiding the road. I tried to use cards of Apple walking directions, thinking I can correct errors on one-way streets myself, but Siri decided I was going too fast, spent my navigation to drive and tried to send me on the highway.

    Anyone has a solution, or am I better off memorizing the card before entering the thing?

    Thank you!

  • iPad 6 will link to google maps when off the grid

    My iPad 6 will link to Google Maps when I have wi - fi, cellular and wi - fi Assist turns off? I want to test OK cards before the holidays, and my iPad still seems to allow Google Maps. Thanks for your help.

    Only if you download and cache the maps of the area you will be in advance.  Google maps, as cards of Apple, is a display of live stream for visual mapping data.  But if you're looking for the Gizmodo and others tutorials on how you can cache a limited amount of data Google Maps for offline use.

    Otherwise, you're better off investing in one of the applications offline maps - IE. cards apps that include download (able) full card displays for guidance in offline or navigation.

  • error message when the location of my pictures (Google maps)

    Excuse my bad English, I'm french! When I try to inform them of the location of my pictures in IPhoto, using Google Maps in the Info window, I get this message: "Oops!" something was wrong. This page has not properly loaded Google maps. See the JavaScript console for more technical details"

    What can I do with Java script?

    Thank you for your response.

    Contract of Apple with Google to use Google maps with locations of the pictures in the iPhoto library has been cancelled a few months previously.  That's why iPhoto 9.4.3 and earlier can no longer access the Google map servers and get this error message.

    If you use iPhoto 9.4.3 or earlier you can stop the fracas in the following manner, but will lose the mapping functionality in the library.

    iPhoto 9.4.3 and earlier began planting for many users suddenly a few weeks ago. This is because the contract between Apple and Google for the use of Google maps with iPhoto 9.4.3 and earlier sites expired an elderly couple of months and was not renewed. This is the case of him freezes or crashes.

    Now uses Apple its own program for locations maps and too the use you need to run iPhoto 9.5.1 and Mavericks or 9.6.1 and Yosemite El Capitan or Photos and El Capitan.

    Re: iPhoto crashes after opening several times in reply to carvermon

    I found a solution that works for me.

    1 goto /Applications/iPhoto.app/Contents/Resources (control (right) - click the iPhoto application and select the content in the context menu - OT.)

    2 delete the files 'googlemap.html' and googlesearch.html

    iPhoto no longer crashes, site does not work, but it doesn't bother me too much.

    Let me know if it works for you guys...

    Deletes two files "googlemap.html" and the googlesearch.html of iPhoto application bundle prevents the JavaScript running inside and causing the accident.  Log of course do the same thing. So it's pretty clear that something happened at the end of Google.

    There is a notch posted by user cotton-x that will let iPhoto 9 and earlier still use Google Maps for the purpose of the location.

    Re: iPhoto 11 - problems with Photo locations

    in response to Paul Fisher

    YES!

    I did just the job.

    I'm on a macbook running white 10.7.5 with iPhoto 9.4.3

    Thanks to Paul, I got an idea. What happens if we had simply ignored Apple has expired API and used our own, private and free from Google. Turns out it works.

    Here's what you need to do:

    0 - quit iPhoto

    1. create a google account or use your own

    Console developers of Google 2 - access HERE

    3. create a project (any name)

    4 - turn on a Google Maps Javascript API

    5 - generate your own API key

    6 - go to the folder /Applications/iPhoto.app/Contents/Resources/googleMap.html

    7. change the googleMap.html (I used an application called TextWrangler)

    8 change the src ="http://maps.googleapis.com/maps/api/js?v=3 & client = gme-appleinc & sensor = false" > to this src = 'https://maps.googleapis.com/maps/api/js?key=YOUR_KEY_HERE& signed_in = true & sensor = false ">"

    9 - save your freshly edited googleMap.html

    10 - open iPhoto and enjoy.

    Take the Apple.

    Don't forget to make a backup copy of the iPhoto application before performing this procedure.

    Sync to iphoto with Iphone hangs on during synchronization. In addition the google map can be charged when I click on the places of Mediathek. Error message: "this page has not loaded correctly Google Maps. See the JavaScript console for more technical details. »

    Perhaps the reason for the problem of synchronization is the problem with the loading of google map?

    Error message: "this page has not loaded correctly Google Maps. See the JavaScript console for more technical details. »

    Apple has not renewed the contract with Google to access Google servers.

    If the old version of iPhoto, which are still using Google's servers for the cards and places are either crashing or hanging.  Places are only work in iPhoto 9.5.1 or newer, who use places of Apple servers.

    There is more support for iPhoto from Apple.  You must update iPhoto 9.5.1 with the Mavericks. It would work well, only it is no longer buying this update to Apple.

    Perhaps the reason for the problem of synchronization is the problem with the loading of google map?

    It is very likely.  If iPhoto work very well when you are offline, then your problems will be caused by the connection failed to Googles servers.

  • Safari will not show Google Maps

    Just recently, I can't get Safari to display Google Maps - I use the version 9.0.3. I do a Google search for Google Maps and it shows a URL of type https://maps.google.co.uk , but if I click the link it translates into https://www.google.co.uk/maps and all that I get a blank page or one that shows just the words "Google Maps" in the upper left corner, without notice, that something is wrong.

    There was a suggestion in another thread that there was a problem with the DNS name servers but I already use the OpenDNS ones, and I have no problem at all with Firefox that shows the cards correctly. If I copy the URL using Firefox in Safari, I get the same result as before. It can be the cause of this problem?

    Try to run the update from the drop-down list. It contains a new version of Safari, which can solve the problem.

    10.11.4 update combo

    Make a backup using Time Machine or a cloning program, to ensure that data files can be recovered. Two backups are better than one.

    Try to set up another admin user account to see if the same problem persists. If back to my Mac is enabled in system preferences, the guest account will not work. The intention is to see if it is specific to an account or a system wide problem. This account can be deleted later.

    Isolate a problem by using a different user account

    If the problem is still there, try to start safe mode using your usual account.  Disconnect all devices except those necessary for the test. Shut down the computer and then put it up after a 10 second wait. Immediately after hearing the startup chime, hold down the SHIFT key and continue to hold it until the gray Apple icon and a progress bar appear. Startup is considerably slower than normal. This will reset some caches, forces a check for directory and disables all start-up and connection, among other things. When you restart normally, the initial restart may be slower than normal. If the system is operating normally, there may be 3rd party applications that pose a problem. Try to delete/disable the third-party applications after a reboot using the UN-Installer. For each disable/remove, you need to restart if you do them all at once.

  • How can I disable the zoom MagicMouse with Google Maps?

    I use OS 10.11.3 (just improved) and an iMac 27 inches and MagicMouse, and suddenly the zoom with Google maps feature is now out of control.  I barely touch the MagicMouse and the zoom goes berserk, zoom-and-out and back-and-forth like crazy!  I can't click-and - drag any card with the function of zoo goes ballistic.

    I had already been able to disable this annoying zoom feature but now I can't find anything in system preferences (mouse, accessibility, trackpad, etc.).  Please help me.  Thank you!

    Hi FRANTIC,

    I don't know if you press any other keys while you scroll/zoom around your screen or if this only happens with Google maps, but I don't know which would be difficult.

    Looks like you check in the appropriate locations to change the behavior.

    Zoom in the accessibility preferences - Mac Help options

    Set the options for the selected style (full-screen or picture-in-picture) by clicking More Options in the Zoom of the accessibility preferences pane.

    To open this pane, choose the Apple menu > System Preferences, click Accessibility, click Zoom, and then click More Options.

    Zoom full screen

      

    Maximum and minimum Zoom Zoom

      

    Set the range of magnification to use when you zoom in and out quickly.

    Enlarge the image on the screen using your trackpad - Mac Help

    You can use your trackpad to zoom in on part of your screen.

    1. Choose the Apple menu > System Preferences, click Accessibility, and then click Zoom.

    2. Select 'Gesture to scroll using the modifier keys to zoom' to activate the zoom, and then select control, Option, or command from the context menu.

  • Route transfer to phone office google map

    I have several routes on my Mac in Yosemite OS X for a three weeks bike ride.  Previously, I used email to send to my phone, but I do not use this service on my iPhone 5 more.

    I read where you go to "notifications" in the settings, select Google maps and 'allow' your office send a file to your iPhone.  I don't see anything of the sort "notifications" after update the phone, I can not find anywhere to "send" a map of google on the phone file.  I received a Google ID to search this site, also without success.  Any help would be appreciated!

    I would be happy again the entire journey on the cards of Apple, if the new version is a bit more friendly, and I could synchronize my computer with phone mapping file.

  • Cannot disable "localization." However, Google Maps opens to my exact location.

    Hi all

    I read in the forum after forum on Google and Mozilla and have tried many steps like turning off "geo-enabled" in all: config, etc.

    Every thing in the settings of Google is set to 'Pause', which I think is also disabled because you can turn them off, but when I go to the site of Google Maps, it always zooms in on my position real and true.

    I tried navigating to another city and then completely close the Firefox browser, but then when I go back to Google Maps, it zooms in to my actual location. How in the heck is Google Maps knows that if the Firefox browser is not it?

    When the page opens, here's what it says in the address bar:
    https://www.Google.com/maps/@33.XXXXXXX,-86.xxxxxxx, 12z

    with the x being the rest of my exact location of lat/long. As I said, where is this latitude/longitude information from otherwise the browser?

    Any help would be greatly appreciated.

    As always,.

    If geolocation is not used, then Web sites can do a reverse DNS glance upward from your IP address and is generally not very accurate.

    Firefox will always ask for permission before using the geolocation.

    You can use websites like these to see how your location is indicated by a reverse search DNS of your IP address:
