Can I locate my iPhone on google maps?

Is there a way to locate my iPhone on Google Maps? Just curious.
André

If you open google maps and enter a destination it will ask you if you want to use the current location as a start point.
I have just tried this and it knew where I was. Was that what you were wanting it to do?
I have used google maps on 2 occasions now to get me to my destination when lost and it has known where I was both times and guided me there!
Indeed, it has been a real life saver!
More praise for the iphone!

  • I can't access to Youtube and Google Maps with Safari

    Hello,
    I've a MacBook Pro and I can't go to Youtube and Google Maps with Safari. I've also tried with Firefox but the problem is still not solved.
    Actually, Safari (or Firefox) keeps charging the page but is unable to get it. I always see a blank page. It only happens with these two websites. Other sites are working perfectly.
    I've tried so many things like installing the flash, erasing cookies or cache, installing updates but nothing helped. This is really annoying. Just to give you an example, if I try to localize my MacBook I just can't see where it is as the map is not appearing.
    Can you help me?
    Thank you!
    Mac OS X 10.7.4
    Safari 5.1.7

    Hi CMCSK!
    Thanks for your answer.
    I bought my Mac in August 2011. In the first weeks, I couldn't see YouTube videos which was normal as the flash wasn't installed. I therefore installed the latest version of Abode's flash and it worked well. But maybe 1 month or more later, I don't know what happened: it began difficult or even impossible to load YouTube website. I first thought this was a problem with Safari. I downloaded Firefox but the problem remained the same: impossible to go to YouTube. I followed the instructions to uninstall the flash and to install it again. Nothing helped. I waited for an update for Safari but it didn't solve my problem.
    As I've already said, the browser (Safari or Firefox) keeps loading the page and after 1 or 2 minutes I see "Safari can't open the page because the server where this page is located isn't responding".
    To come back to this:
    if I try to localize my MacBook I just can't see where it is as the map is not appearing.
    Well I wanted to give you an example of the problem itself (with Google Maps here). If I go to iCloud and try to localize my Mac, I can see the green circle but the map is not loaded. I don't know why it isn't working. Whenever there is a Google Map on a website (e.g. a restaurant giving its localization with a small Google Map) I can't see it. I only see a light grey background with question marks everywhere. I also see this grey background when I go to the website of Google.
    I hope you see more what the problem is.
    Thank you

  • I have one apple ID for both my Iphone 4S and Ipad. My Ipad was stolen from me and when I checked the iCloud, it can only locate the Iphone 4S. How can I locate the Ipad device?

    I have one apple ID for both my Iphone 4S and Ipad. My Ipad was stolen from me and when I checked the iCloud, it can only locate the Iphone 4S. How can I locate the Ipad device?

    Welcome to the Apple Community.
    You can only locate your device when it is logged into iCloud and 'Find My Phone' is enabled, additionally the device will need to be switched on and connected to a wifi or cellular network.
    Unfortunately, you cannot activate iCloud or 'Find My Phone' remotely.

    Hi, Abril_Perez17.
    This may be related to a new feature embedded in iOS7 that shows all purchased music by default.  Go to Settings > Music, then turn off Show All Music.  See if the issue ceases once the feature has been disabled.  This information is located on page 63 of the user guide below.

    You can't, it was built-in to iOS and is not in the store. Google are supposed to be working on app version of maps, and in the meantime you could try accessing it via Safari : http://maps.google.com

    LOST PHONE
    If you enabled iCloud on your device and enabled Find My iPhone on the device, then you can view the iPhone or iPad location at www.icloud.com .  Use your iCloud login details and then click on Find my iPhone.
    If Find My iPhone was not enabled on your device or your device does not have an internet connection or has been turned off then there is nothing you can do to view the location and track your device.
    If your device has been stolen, report it stolen to your carrier and the police and change all your passwords.  This is what you do when you lose your phone or it is stolen support.apple.com/kb/ht5668

    If you activated Find My Phone before it was lost or stolen, you can track it only if Wi-Fi is enabled on the device. What you cannot do is track your device using a serial number or other identifying number. You cannot expect Apple or anyone else to find your device for you. You cannot recover your loss unless you insure your device for such loss. It is not covered by your warranty.
    If your iPhone, iPod, iPod Touch, or iPad is lost or stolen what do you do? There are things you should have done in advance - before you lost it or it was stolen - and some things to do after the fact. Here are some suggestions:

  • Can I locate my iPhone over IMEI-a?

    Can I locate my iPhone over IMEI-a?

    The only way to find a lost iOS device is to use the Find my iPhone app or www.icloud.com.  For this to work, you have to enable Find my iPhone (Settings > iCloud) on the lost device prior to loss.  If you didn't do this, there is no way to find it.  Neither Apple nor your carrier will find it for you.

    Yep like roamingggnome said.
    You maybe turned it off in restrictions. Go to settings, general, restrictions.
    Or do a restart. Hold power then slide to power off then turn it back again.

  • HT5429 i still can't locate a local restaurant on maps

    i still can't locate a local restaurant on maps after reporting the problem and inputting all the info. It's been a week. Apple support mentioned it should only take 24-48 hours to add into the maps system. Anyone else have this problem?

    ok no problem! all i did was 1) set up the mobile hotspot on my phone. 2)  turn it and wifi on on the phone. 3)  connect the laptop/desktop to the hotspot network. 4) insert setup disk for the printer and begin setup. 5) complete the setup "using a usb cord to temporarilly connect the computer and printer" 6) unplug usb cable and finish set up on the laptop/desktop. 7) give it a few minutes to show up on the AirPrint menu on the phone. 8) that should be it. I unplugged the printer and plugged it back in, made sure the laptop was totally turned off AND disconnected from the network, and did everything I could to try and make it not work. The printer I have is a Canon MG3122, it doesn't have a fancy screen or even a way to input a password or anything like that, so it just strores a default network that it will connect to. in order to change networks i would have to complete setup multiple times. Since I only plan to use it with AirPrint for my mobile business....the one network is just fine! Hope this helps!

  • How can I locate my Iphone from my computer

    I cannot find my IPhone. Can anyone tell me how I can locate my IPHONE via a computer because I don't have another phone?

    If you set up the Find My iPhone service prior to your iPhone going missing, then there is a chance that can be tracked, though it depends on a number of factors (the iPhone is turned on, connected to either the 3G or a WiFi network, or has not had the Find My iPhone service disabled or the iPhone been completely restored). If you set up Find My iPhone, log into iCloud.com from any computer with a current web browser and an Internet connection. If you did not set up Find My iPhone, check with your cell carrier. Some carriers offer their own tracking service, though you usually have to pay for it. 
    If your carrier does not offer such a service and you did not set up Find My iPhone, then there is no way to track the unit. Contact the police and change any passwords for any online accounts you may have used from your iPhone (the iTunes Store, for instance). 
    Regards.
