Iphone5 goes to google maps whenever an app needs a map, i'd rather use apple maps. how?

My iPhone 5, when using an app with location services always revrts to google maps an Id rather use Apple maps. Ho did this happen and/or how can I make it stp?

It is up to the app developer what map API to use. The apps you have chosen to use Google; I have an app that uses Bing. It is the developer's choice, not Apple's, however.

Getting "iPhone needs to cool down" warning while using Apple Maps

I bought the iPhone 6 yesterday and today I used the Apple Maps navigation on it. Not 30 mins into the navigation I got following warning from the phone "iPhone needs to cool down". 30 minutes of GPS usage is not too much. This happened twice. Are other ppl. having the same issue or is it just my phone?
Thanks,
Anupam

I updated my iPhone to the new IOS6 and my awesome Google map app was replaced with the sucky, horrible, awful Apple map app. I want my Google navigator map app back!!!!!!

I agree. I liked the previous map app. The version 6 app is powered by tomtom, I think. No more street view. I don't care for the new overhead view when dropping a pin. Plus, the current map app doesn't have the local points or data base that the google maps app had. Too bad I can't go back to the old map app.

Has anyone used Apple Maps (on the Mac) for RoadTrip planning?

I would like to use Apple Maps to plan a road trip, but I don't see a way to drop multiple pins for multiple locations. for example, I'd like to visit South Dakota, specifically, Custer and DeSmet, but I'd also like to visit Devil's Tower in Wyoming, the petrified forest which is close by, some caves, etc. I would like to be able to set my starting point and drop some pins for points of interest and then figure out what else is around those points of interest (PINs) such as restaurants, hotels, historical sites, etc. And finally be able to pull all this together so I can figure out the road trip.
Has anybody done this and if so would you be willing to share some tips?

I don't see a way to drop multiple pins for multiple locations
This can't be done with Maps at this time. The best you can do is amass a set of bookmarks that contain a maximum of one starting point and one ending point with no way to organize them beyond the order in which they were created. (A completely fruitless exercise in my experience.)
IMO, you're much better off creating maps with Google Maps, saving those maps, then accessing your saved maps through the Google Maps app (in its settings) on your iOS device or via the Web on a Mac. You can also use the Google Maps app in conjunction with the TripAdvisor app and even the OpenTable app to navigate to places to stay and eat anywhere in the country.
(Don't underestimate the value of paper maps for long road trips like this, either.)

We are fellow users here on these forums, we won't know what you are being charged for.
You can view the purchase history on your account via a computer's iTunes : if you log into your account via the Store > View Account menu option you should then see a Purchase History section with a 'see all' link to the right of it, click on that and you should then see a list of your purchases.
And did you have any auto-renewing subscriptions that you didn't cancel ? There are instructions on this page for managing and stopping them : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4098
If nothing shows on your account's purchase history then you should contact your card issuer, or if they show but you didn't make them (unless they are auto-renewing subscriptions which you didn't cancel) then you can contact iTunes Support via this page : http://www.apple.com/support/itunes/contact/ - click on Contact iTunes Store Support on the right-hand side of the page, then Purchases, Billing & Redemption

Copy app data from one iPad to many using Apple Configurator

I'm wondering if it's possible to copy customized content created with a particular app to a group of supervised iPads using Apple Configurator 1.4.1 that have the same app installed? The application in question is called Sight Words (https://itunes.apple.com/us/app/sight-words-list-learn-to/id445708245?mt=8). I have an instructor who made their own word lists and audio recordings for this particular app on their device and would like the content propagated to student devices. Thank you for your help!

Ipads are made with the letter i for a reason. isolated, indivudual, introverted,
We have the same bug. iPads fail in education settings.
workaround:
a) hope/pray/wish that the ipad app has a way to import via iTunes from a desktop mac. For example. We manage the ipads with configuator, then quit configurator. Then I connect one ipad to my mac with USB. Before I do this i check that all apps on the mac and ipad are closed. I launch itunes, and then using itunes there is a tab called apps, and then a few apps support itunes file transfer. Learningally.org has an ipad app that let's me push out files to the app from a desktop mac using itunes. That's a rare app feature.
b) Setup the ipads with a generic mail account. We use a restricted email account called robot. I can then email an attachment to that address [email protected] Then on each ipad the kids open mail, and then click the attachment and say "open with". That is rare, but some apps can then import your word list.
c) Buy android tablets that allow many types of file transfer

I was told you you could view your app from your Iphone on the TV using Apple TV, such as the AFL football one i have purchased through the App store.

I was told you could view your app from your Iphone on the TV using Apple TV, such as the AFL football one i have puchased through the App store. Is this true?

Hi - you can do what you want to do with AirPlay from your iPhone - but unfortunately it is not as easy as the people in the Apple store told you - your first problem is that you have a non Apple router - you cannot extend a non Apple router wirelessly with the Express - you can only join the network and connect an ethernet device to it - you can however connect via ethernet and have it create a wireless network of its' own - you can set this up from your iPhone or the XP - but this is a complicated setup and would involve many different discussion areas of this forum - therefore I would suggest that you use your 90 days of support and consult directly with Apple to do this - go to this link - http://www.apple.com/support/contact/

Use Apple Maps as GPS on IPhone5

Hi there,
I am fairly new to my IPhone 5 device. Coming from Android platfrom, there are a few transitional challanges.
Is there a way to have the Apple Maps operate as a GPS without locking of the screen?
After I open Apple Maps, I tick the little arrow at the bottom left to track my current location. That works, it shows my current location and whichever way I am traveling (by car). However, after about 30 seconds the screen dims and then locks. I need to keep it up for the duration of my drive to track which steet is where.
The same thing happens when I use Google maps app, but that may be the apps fault.
Thank you,

Thank you Ckuan for the speedy response!
I kinda figured that would be the answer, just wanted to explore the alternatives.
The problem with that: it adds an unnecessary step that could really be automated.
Meaning, it would be great if the auto-lock had no affect on my screen when I was in Apple Maps (or Google Maps for that matter).
I'll stick to having my Auto-Lock set to "Never" i guess. I just know I will forget to lock it manually from now and then, because of other pressing things floating in my brain that take priority.
Too bad though, my Android phone had no such issue. But then again, I am getting used to my Apple product now:) each has it's own pluses and minuses.

Why doesn't my iphone show up in the share options?

Hi dlinhardt,
Thanks for visiting Apple Support Communities.
If you don't see your iPhone in Maps on OS X, and you've confirmed you're signed in with the correct iCloud account (Apple ID), try these steps from our troubleshooting article next:
OS X Maps: Share menu doesn't list iOS devices
http://support.apple.com/kb/TS5293
3. Quit OS X Maps and try again.
Quit the Maps app, then open it again.
Click the Share button. If you still don't see your devices, continue to the next step.
4. Sign in to FaceTime or Messages on your Mac.
Sign in to either FaceTime or Messages. In Messages, you should be signed in to your iMessage account, not another type of account. If you're already signed in, continue to the next step.
Restart your computer. After the computer restarts, you should be asked to enter your iCloud password and click Log In.
If you still don't see your devices in Maps, quit Maps, then open it again and check for your devices once more.
All the best,
Jeremy

Using apple maps without 3G

I recently purchase the iPad3 with only WiFi. I also purchase the gpsx150 gps signal receiver. In attempting to use the maps once I begin moving the map turns to a grid versus the maps?

I know that Apple Maps is supported in Germany (and other countries) - but is the turn-by-turn navigation output in English, or in German?
