Hank did Google maps give you turn by turn functions NO
Are the new maps complete far from it but they are based on crowd technology -IF you have information for your locality share it and it will be added to the servers.
Yes its 1.0 software but it WILL get better as the data base builds.
Further Apple were paying license fees to competing Google that they don't now.
The GPS, and raw data from TomTom that powers the new Maps are actually quite accurate.
If you want to see street view you still can by adding a link/home icon after visiting
http://www.viewstreetnoflash.com in safari on your iOS device.
Turn by turn is NEW and free to use functionality within Maps and that was NOT in Google Maps.
Prior to you had to spend £50+ on a decent (Still do really) TBT app from Garmin or Tom Tom.
In the apps store there are 100s of Mapping apps covering a multitude of countries and regional transportation systems around the world.
GPS and walking maps are also available.
You have lost nothing really other than Street View natively.
However imo I do think flyover, and similar technologies seen competing Bing and even Google Maps looks good but is actually functionally useless.

Your phone is carrier locked to a carrier other than the one you are trying to use.
It was apparently hacked to unlock it prior to your attempt to update. Updating has re-locked it to the original carrier.
Contact them and find out what their policy is.

Try:
- iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
- Also try DFU mode after try recovery mode
How to put iPod touch / iPhone into DFU mode « Karthik's scribblings
- If not successful and you can't fully turn the iOS device fully off, let the battery fully drain. After charging for an least an hour try the above again.
- If still not successful that indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

Guys, a little help please ???

Guys, a little help please before i launch my new toys out of my pram I've got the new apple TV, Ipad2, and IOS5 update. I'm trying to set up mirrorring , however, when i double click the home page and swipe, the only options it gives me are Ipad or Apple TV. The video shows that i should be able to simply click on mirrorring and whazam it appears on my TV... I can't get this option.... I've rebooted them (router, ipad 2 and Apple Tv) numerous times but still can't get it.......Can someone tell me what I'm doing wrong?
Thanks

Sounds as though the options you're getting are the standard Airplay output icons.
Check current AppleTV software version in Settings>General>About
Latest is 4.4.2 - there's a sticky at the top of the page about updating - if you're on 4.3 or lower just update from Settings.
Maybe someone can confirm the video you mention is actually the correct way to invoke mirroring - link?
(Yn anfodus heb iPad2 does dim syniad 'da fi os ydi'r Mirroring yn gweithio fel yn y fideo - oes linc i'r fideo, rhag ofn bod y fideo'n anghywir?)

my itouch 4th gen internal speaker doesn't want to work. what can i do to fix it? help please!

- Try inserting/removing a earphone plug a dozen or more times.
- Reset the iPod. Nothing is lost
Reset iPod touch: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
- Restore from backup
- Restore to factory defaults/new iPod
If you still have the problem that indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order. Could be a bad headphone jack.

Need a little help please Airport Express

Need a little help please.
I am trying to set up a wireless network at my home using Airport Express.
I have a regular phone line running in to I assume the modem. From there, there is an Ethernet cable running from that box to the back of the PC. My question is, I think, which of those do I unplug and plug into the Airport Express, the one on the back of the PC or the one that is in the back of the modem, or is this totally wrong.
Any help would be appreciated…
Thanks
In advance…
PS I have the manual but to me it is not very clear…

Your connection sequence would look like this:
Internet > Modem > AirPort Express >>>wireless to your computers.
This means that you would unplug the cable that is now connected at the back of your PC and move that connection to the AirPort Express.
Open Macintosh HD > Applications > Utilities > AirPort Utility
Click Continue to follow the guided setup. On the third page, you will choose the option to "Create a wireless network" and continue the setup.

Unfortunately, this sort of trouble has gotten more complicated to deal with ever since Microsoft pulled the Windows Installer CleanUp utility from their Download Center on June 25. First we have to find a copy of the utility.
Let's try Googling. (Best not to use Bing, I think.) Look for a working download site for at least version 3.0 of the Windows Installer CleanUp utility. (The results from mydigitallife and Major Geeks are worth checking.)
After downloading the utility installer file (msicuu2.exe), scan the file for malware, just in case. (I use the free version of Malwarebytes AntiMalware to do single-file scans for that.)
If the file is clean, to install the utility, doubleclick the msicuu2.exe file you've downloaded.
Now run the utility ("Start > All Programs > Windows Install Clean Up"). In the list of programs that appears in CleanUp, select any Bonjour and QuickTime entries and click "Remove".
Quit out of CleanUp. Restart the PC, and try another iTunes install. Does it go through properly this time?

Previous session won't restore but I can see the websites in Sessionstore.old, Help please.

I saved the old files but all the things I read on this site have not helped. I can see the links of the tabs if I open sessionstore.old in firefox but there is like 200 tabs and there must be a faster way then copy and pasting each one into the browser. This has never happened before. It has crashed and opened back up many times, the last one yesterday with no problem but now I get a grey out for restore previous session. I updated to the latest version recently but it opened fine after. Please help.

Firefox doesn't use a sessionstore.old file.
Did you try to copy this file to sessionstore.js?
Did you check for History > Recently Closed Tabs/Windows if you can't restore the previous session?
