Firefox 8 and Google Maps problem!

Ever since upgrading to Firefox 8 (I don't recall this problem using firefox 7.01) using maps.google.com if I search for something like watertown, wi or greendale, wi it will work the first time or so. Then afterawhile it will just say "loading" and stop working. This is on Windows XP Pro 32bit.
I have completely re-installed firefox from scratch (deleted all settings) and started over. But, it does the same thing!
Help!

I have this same problem with Firefox 9.0.1, but not with explorer; "problem" = destination and location markers in Google Maps don't appear and hence can't be clicked and dragged, really limiting usefulness. Problem began a few weeks ago, maybe when Firefox updated. Haven't added any new add-ons. Tried opening Firefox in safe mode, tried the add-on posted here, tried the various Tools>Internet Options suggested here, none worked.

I'm told that Firefox and Google maps interface are incompatible?

When I try to use a website that contains a Google Map, the application fails. I can send a screenshot if that will help.

Start Firefox in <u>[[Safe Mode|Safe Mode]]</u> to check if one of the extensions (Firefox/Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Extensions) or if hardware acceleration is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox/Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Appearance).
*Do NOT click the Reset button on the Safe Mode start window.

Firefox and Google Chrome problem

I updated plugins in Firefox - including Shockwave and now my Google Chrome browser crashes as soon as I open it. I uninstalled and reinstalled Chrome, but it still won't work. For a split second when I try to open Chrome I get an error that says something about Firefox, but it is not on the screen long enough for me to read or hit continue. I like using Chrome for one of my email accounts and some other stuff. Any one else having this problem?

Normally there's no connection between Google Chrome and Firefox. Do you have any Chrome add-ons that interact with Firefox in any way, for example, to share data such as bookmarks, history, etc.?
Chrome has an integrated version of the Flash plugin, so updates for Firefox or IE usually have no effect on Chrome.
Does Chrome have a command-line switch to start up with a blank page instead of your regular home page? Or a "safe mode" with add-ons disabled? If so, you might try those.
Perhaps if you use a screen recorder (like Jing) you can record that fleeting message and reply back with whatever it says.

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 am in nanchang jiangxi china but my local weather and google map is showing unknown location so Plz help me

I am in nanchang jiangxi china but my local weather and google map is showing unknown location so Plz help me

The weather application is powered by "Yahoo". It doesn't have all cities listed in the database and your city is also not listen. Therefore it's not showing your local weather. You can "ADD" a nearby location in the weather application.
For the location problem, turn the location service "OFF" & "ON". Restart your phone (by long pressing the ON & OFF button on top right & slide to tun off). Then use a WIFI connection to run the google map application and locating your position. I hope this will fix the issue.

CRM UI using IE 8, Firefox and Google Chrome

Hi Colleagues,
Is there any feedback on CRM UI using IE 8, Firefox and Google Chrome?
A prospect is asking about it and I could not find any oficial information in Service Marketplace.
Regards,
Renato Petrulis

Renato,
For CRM 2007/7.0 IE8 was release conditionally. Basically it defaults IE8 back to compatibility mode when viewing CRM from IE8. Please take a look at the following OSS Notes
1397488 - Conditional release of SAP CRM 2007 and SAP CRM 7.0 for IE 8
1302283 - WebCUIF: IE8 Compatibility
I haven't seen anything for Chrome and Firefox 3 in terms of official support right now.
Good luck,
Stephen

Safari and Google Maps are useless

Safari and Google Maps invariably quit and return to the home screen. They are essentially useless. I tried to empty the cache and history...no luck. I then tried a reset and when it restarted got a message to please connect to iTunes. iTunes told me my phone needed to be restored. A progress bar indicated it was extracting some software and then it was preparing the iPhone for restoration. After some time I got an unknown error message (1603) that said it was unable to restore. I am looking at it as it sits uselessly in the dock with nothing but the apple icon showing. Has anyone experienced this? Does anyone have a solution? Should I just return it to the Apple Store.
MacBook Pro Mac OS X (10.4.10)
MacBook Pro Mac OS X (10.4.7)

James, I'm sorry to say buddy, but you might just have a defective product. If restoring doesn't work there really isn't much more you could do. You can ether wait for the next update, and hope that would fix it, or just take it back to the store and exchange it. You have 30 days from the day of purchase to return the item. Thats my recommendation. GL

've recently upgraded to FireFox v22.0. Originally, a legacy XBAP I use always opened correctly in FireFox and had no problems displaying or running. As of v22.

I've recently upgraded to FireFox 22. Originally, a legacy XBAP I use always opened correctly in FireFox and had no problems displaying or running. As of 22, it won't even attempt to download the application, let alone try and display it.
I have the windows Presentation Foundation 3.5.30729.1 installed, which is the same version I have been using in older versions.
Can anyone shed some light on any changes that would have effected this?

Hi, I have a similar problem. I did attempt the *.rdf fix on a test system, but it didn't work (em:maxVersion was already 22).
We got about inflow of phone calls from our clients experiencing the problem mentioned above from the 2nd of July onwards... and more are phoning in.
All the complaints come from clients (+- 10 so far and rising in number) using Firefox v22 (we have checked), and all of them have said that it was working previously.
We downgraded one of the clients to an older version of Firefox, and it worked again. So far we are telling our clients to downgrade until a fix comes out, or use Internet Explorer (*blush*)

HELP: CLOSING MAIL AND GOOGLE MAPS

Dear guys,
My 3gs suffer from battery drain caused by background 3g traffic data activity.
Even if I have no background running app, my phone keeps sending receiving huge mb of data.
I've downloaded from appstore an app, system lite, which has revealed that, between runnin apps, there are mail and google maps. Maybe this colud cause traffic data.
How can I close them? Obviously, double pressing home button doesn't show these apps running....
Thanks in advance.

If double pressing the home button does not show the programs in the bar, they are not running. There is no possible way for them to be running in the background unless they are showing the quick switching bar.
What is showing in this bar when you double tap the home button?
Have you tried the basics from the manual or reset, restart, and restore?

Driving times vary from Maps and Google maps?

When I plot a trip I find driving times vary significantly from Maps and Google maps. I wonder what the paramieters are for attaching driving times to routes? I would hope that it were speed limits.

Basically it is average driving time. Speed limits is a factor but so is congestion, terrain, weather, construction, etc. Since Apple and Google get their data from different sources, the results are always going to be different.

Google Maps Navigation and Google Music problem

Hello,
I love the LG G2 but it has a few concerning issues. First, is the squealling, hissing, cracking, popping, etc. during phone calls, but I have seen that brought up by others.
The second problem that I've discovered, and the most upsetting to me, is that when using the Google Maps Navigation and Google Music All Access at the same time, whenever the navigation voice instructs a direction, the music shuts off. It is then silent until the navigation voice instructs the next direction OR when a new track starts. This was not a problem on my droid bionic, so it must be an LG G2 issue. This is a huge problem to me as I travel a lot for work and usually use GPS to find where I'm going, and I subscribe to Google Music All Access so I listen to music in the car. This problem makes that impossible to do (I have to choose).
A related issue, is that my Alpine CD player displayed track information (Artist, Song, Album) with my Droid Bionic, but with the LG G2 it displays 'UNKNOWN'. I find it hard to believe that a two year old phone has capabilities that a brand new phone wouldn't, so I'm hoping these issues will be fixed with a software patch.
Has anybody else experienced these issues, or does it work fine with your LG G2?

Hawaii is a part of the USA so you will be fine there. Mexico on the other hand, you will be roaming for data there and could see extra charges for international data.

Phone numbers are not showing up on craigslist and google maps is not working.

I uploaded the 3.6 version of firefox and although learning a new look and figuring out what changes had been made were doing ok then the other night the power went out it shut the comp down and when my husband started it back up it had him update it again now my first page when I open it shows yahoo instead of ask, and when I use fire fox to open craigslist lots of the post do not have phone numbers showing up on them that does show up if I use internet explorer to view CL. Also, It will bring up google maps but when I put a location in the box to see it on the map and hit the search button it only starts to load the page with the little word loading... in the center above the location search box but then it says it's done. This also does not happen when I use IE. We tried to restore to a previous date (which there were only a couple to choose from, don't know where the rest of them went) but once the comp restarted itself after supposedly restoring it comes up and says it was not able to restore it properly. I did not have any of these problems with the first update to 3.6 but I think the update that was just loaded 3.6.11 or something like that has really messed something up or it's just not right some how.

Issues with phone numbers not displaying properly can be caused by the Skype extension (Tools > Add-ons > Extensions)
Start Firefox in [[Safe Mode]] to check if one of your add-ons is causing your problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Tools > Add-ons > Themes).
* Don't make any changes on the Safe mode start window.

Oracle Packaged Application "Google Map" - Problem Found

To Oracle Webmaster and Support Team,
In the APEX Sample Code from the page (http://www.oracle.com/technology/products/database/application_express/packaged_apps/packaged_apps.html#INTEGRATION).
The "Google Map" Application Preview (http://apex.oracle.com/pls/otn/f?p=34481:1:4401939335008683) has some issues.
After entering an address and click the button "Get Geocode", the following error message display: "ORA-29273: HTTP request failed ORA-06512: at "SYS.UTL_HTTP", line 1577 ORA-24247: network access denied by access control list (ACL)" (Error Calling Geocode Service).
I apologize if this is the incorrect place to post this message, I cannot find any other place to post this issue to Oracle.
Thanks.
JT

JT,
On the Oracle hosted web site, that 'problem' will never be fixed, mainly because to fix it, it could allow a whole series of approaches for their system to be 'hacked'.
In short, for Oracle to allow that access on their server, for anybody to execute, would be a huge security problem. On your own site, then you can limit which users/schema would have that privilege, so it's not as big of a secuirty threat on your site. Though, that also doesn't mean nobody on your site could inadvertently grant the permission and open your site up to potential attacks, but that's a completely different problem.

NB 6.1 and Google Maps

I've looked all over and can't seem to find tutorial on Google Maps for NB 6.1 There is tut for NB 5.5 but it can't be applied to NB 6.1 as Netbeans developers said themselves:
- No Support for Ajax Sample Components
- Google Map - Planned for futureI've tried to work with NB 5.5 but the tut for Ajax Map Viewer isn't working quite right and the map component is the reason.
Ajax Map Viewer component does not work properly under NetBeans Visual Web Pack 5.5.1.
    Description: The BluePrints Ajax complib needs to be updated and re-added to the project for this component to work properly.
    Workaround: To fix this issue:
       1. Update the BluePrints Ajax Components library from Update Center as described in Downloading and Importing Ajax Components.
       2. Remove the BluePrints Ajax Components library from the project: Under Component Libraries, right-click BluePrints AJAX Components (0.1.1) and choose Remove.
       3. Add the newly updated BluePrints Ajax Components library: Right-click Component Libraries and choose Add Component Library.
       4. Undeploy the web application.
       5. Stop the application server, clean and build the project, and restart the application server.
       6. Redeploy the web application. Tried it and now sometimes it works and sometimes it doesn't. Am I forced to abandon NB if I want to develop google map type of app?

Hooo, speew, you are optimistic.
I've definitely got the problem: ultra slow redraw, takes up to 40 seconds to activate when you click on an action such as 'directions from here' in a contextual menu, takes 30 seconds for a route to be drawn, takes 10 seconds for a zoom change, and more. 10 seconds may not sound like a lot, but to give you a reference, 90% of voicemails left are only 4-6 seconds. Give it a try.
That's all without satellite view or any other services options turned on (hotels, show me etc)
