Google Map Marker Pin at Incorrect Location

Hi
Can anyone help regarding why a Google map marker is located off the coast of Africa when I have included the app item location/address details as being in Queensland, Australia?
It only comes up when a full search is done, when you click the Get Directions links you're taken to the correct map in Google Maps.
Thanks in advance.

Hi Mary, I had a problem with Perth as well, but it has somehow resolved itself.
I did see somewhere that it was an issue with the Google postcode database, but I cant remember where or how to resolve it.
Thanks

Keep google map marker after leaving for another view

I'm creating a mobile app which displays a google map. You can enter address and put a marker on the map. The problem is when I leave for another view and come back to the original view, that marker is deleted. Is there a way to keep that marker after leaving for another view and coming back to the original view? The easiest solution can be using database, but I do not like to use database if possible.
onMapReady(event) is implemented:
protected function onMapReady(event:Event):void {
        map.setMapType(MapType.PHYSICAL_MAP_TYPE);
        map.addEventListener(TransformGestureEvent.GESTURE_ZOOM,pinchZoom);
        if(Geolocation.isSupported){
          zoomLevel = 12;
          geo = new Geolocation();
          geo.setRequestedUpdateInterval(50);
          geo.addEventListener(GeolocationEvent.UPDATE,onGeoUpdate);
          geocoder = new ClientGeocoder();
          geocoder.addEventListener(GeocodingEvent.GEOCODING_SUCCESS, onGeocodingSuccess);
          geocoder.addEventListener(GeocodingEvent.GEOCODING_FAILURE, onGeocodingFailuer);
Any help is apprciated.

Hi Gsaison,
Do you have any progress on these issues? Im working on the same solution right now (SWV + GoogleMaps JS v3 ) I've got some weird issue when i try to spawn a StageWebView inside a View on IOS, it appears inside a scroller and is not open for finger interaction anymore. I use the eskimo framework, but then again, nothing fancy going on there for the rest. I've tried all of the the stage.stageScaleMode options but non of them work. Got any help?
Kind regards,
Roy

How do I get google maps back and turn on location services so I don't have to use your absolutely garbage maps

How do I get google maps back so I don't have to use apples disgusting version of an attempt at a map

You don't. You can use Safari and go to mobile Google maps and after opening that, tap on the arrow on the bottom of the page and save it to the homescreen. That will allow you to use Google maps web app on the phone. There is a rumor that Google is working on a stand alone app for the App store however no one knows yet if it has been submitted.

Google Maps app. Can't locate where I live?

It is placing me 2.4 miles away from where I am, on my Original iPhone.
On an iphone 3G, it is placing me about 4 blocks away.
Any thoughts?

It's late August, started noticing location weirdness about a month ago, thought I'd lost my mind. Now I see your post. The location feature was rough on 2G, but now it's way off. Mymother's 3GS seems off too now. Like the master library has been changed, and there's some offset improperly set.
Hope somebody gets an answer an solution. If this feature doesn't workhalf as well as it did, something has changed on the head end, I'm sure

Map marker + geolocation (google maps)

I'm currently working on embedding a google map in my app. The geolocating already works ( I used this code: DPS Tips HTML5 Examples, thanks Bob!), but I just can't add markers to the map. I tried different codes but none seem to work. I would also need the markers to have their names shown (e.g. hotspot 1, hotspot 2).
Has anyone here found a solution for this and would be kind enough to share?
Thanks in advance!

hi! I used the code for geolocation from the link above, and this code for the marker: Simple markers - Google Maps JavaScript API v3 — Google Developers
It both works independently, but I can't mix them. I also can't find a way to modify my marker ( own icon) and add an info box.
I tried some of the following links to try and work those aspects to the marker file, if it helps with finding a solution:
LabeledMarker Documentation: Examples

Add multiple location google map

How can I add a Google map with more than one location. I have 2 biz locations, but I do not see a way to have multiple biz locations on same map. Can I have more than one address? How do I do it?

Hi David,
There is no out of the box solution for this in Muse. I'll leave this discussion open for other members to reply with the workaround they have, if any.

Intermittently, Google Maps location is off and "My Location" not working

Is anyone else out there having this problem? It’s driving me nuts! I use Google Maps quite often.
Recently, I’m having intermittent problems using Google Maps on my Droid. When I’m having the problem and I launch Maps, my location is off by several streets. When driving, it doesn’t seem to track my location in real time. I have both “Use Wireless Networks” and “Use GPS satellites” checked in Settings/Location & security/My Location. If I uncheck “Use Wireless Networks” (force the Droid to use the GPS only) and use Maps/Menu/My Location, I get two messages “Waiting for location” and then “Your current location is temporarily unavailable” a few seconds later.
Usually Maps is VERY accurate. I see my exact location within Maps and it tracks my location in real time. This started happening intermittently a few weeks ago, perhaps with the Google Maps 4.3.0 upgrade or the previous upgrade.
Using Motorola Droid with Firmware version 2.1-update1 and Google Maps ver 4.3.0.

Some people have issues with GPS accuracy, such as showing your location 1000 feet or further away from your actual location, and this can be resolved by following these steps.
1. Download GPS Status from the market (it's free).
2. Make sure your GPS is turned on and open GPS Status.
3. Go to a location where you don't have magnetic devices around you (like electronics of any sort), such as outside (ideal) or room with minimal electronics nearby.
4. Hold your phone in your hand flat. Spin it around 3 times. After that, hold your phone on it's side, spin it around 3 times again. Finally, put your phone right side up (end on end) and spin it 3 more times. You can also do figure 8's, but the spins worked for me.
5. Go to Google Maps and see if your location is closer.

This gives the count as per the state in the google map, if we click a state it will show us the count, but its holding good only for 11 records in the map
Appreciate your response

I haven't yet used the tag. It looks quite interesting.
I had a look at the
cf_googleMap
Documentation out of curiosity. Apparently, putting
<cf_googlemapshow/> at the end, just before the closing body
tag, solves a number of Javascript issues.

Is it possible to embed Google Maps in Captivate?

Hi
I am using Captivate 7.0.1.237.
I want to insert Google Maps in one of my slides. I thought it is just a matter of getting the required link from Google Map (Open Google Map > Search for the required location > Click Settings > Copy the path in Share Link) and adding that in the Web Object interaction.
But it is not working. I have tested it from my local system and a web server.
Please advise.

There's a free app available in the App Store called iFindView. It's Google maps, and a better version on the one that was present in IOS5.

Google Map doesn't appear automatically when a prompt changes value

Hi everybody,
I'm using OBIEE 11.1.1.6.0 updated to 11.1.1.6.1 and I'm facing a curious problem.
I created a dashboard with three sections.
In the first section there is a prompt which shows the Top number of providers.
In the second section there is a table on the left side which shows how many members we have for each provider, and a pie chart on the right side.
In the third section there is a narrative view used to see a google map with ALL the providers' locations. This map have to show ALWAYS ALL the locations (no matter what I selected as Top number of providers, so it will be always the same).
So, when I change the Top number of providers, the table and the pie chart refresh automatically, but the map doesn't refresh, or better it doesn't appear ! (I don't see the map anymore, I see a white space....). To see it again, I have to refresh the entire page.....
This functionality worked in the past, but with this version it seems that it doesn't work properly....
Has anyone faced an issue like this using the narrative views with google maps ??? This is a problem that I need to solve urgently.
Any help or hint will be appreciated
Thanks in advance
Alex

It looks to me like this has nothing to do with the digital signature prompt and everything to do with a badly formed URL. In a URL the domain name is not case sensitive but all the path information is case sensitive. Whether one should use http://www.mycompany.com/Abc/Xyz/ or http://www.mycompany.com/abc/xyz/ depends only on what the HTTP server expects. So which of these does the HTTP server expect?

Safari 8 hover does not work over google map location pins

OS X 10.10.1, Safari 8, Java 8-25
I have always had little odd things not work when using safari on a large % of websites I visit, the latest issues are
no response when hovering over google map location pins, travel site calendars not opening or responding to mouse, drag and drop
show the item being dragged several inches away from the actual pointer, some links don't respond, missing items
or odd layout with print or pop ups going off the screen on some website pages, zooming in and out does not help. I have none
of these issues when using Firefox or Chrome. Been using Safari for 4 years now.

Have you tried a PRAM and an SMC reset? They're longshots, but don't take long to try.
PRAM: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1379
SMC: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT3964
Have you run Apple Diagnostics from the disc(s) that shipped with the computer?
Since the problem occurs in all browsers, it still sounds like a video hardware or video RAM or maybe a software issue having to do with layers and rendering.
The map layers aren't getting rendered, or if rendered, aren't getting displayed.
Do you have any browser add-ins? Pop-up blockers?
Since you have two video chipsets, it's possible that might be related to the issue.
This non-Apple website talks about switching between chipsets on the various MacBook models so equipped, and points to a free 'donationware' program for the menubar that lets you easily switch between chipsets:

Trying to think of other software that might help pinpoint the problem, does the iPhoto Slideshow 'Shatter' template work? Working properly, it 'shatters' images into several color layers and rotates them in and out to build and deconstruct photos.

I have an I phone 4. When I bought it the google maps app came pre installed. I am in the process of adding thousands of customers into my stock contacts app. Sometimes I want to drop a pin in an exact location on the property. I drop it, assign it to the contact, leave the app, and then come back into the contacts app and click on the address. It then takes me into google maps where I constantly discover that the pin has moved. It often moves off the property of the addresss or building I dropped a pin on. I am trying to solve this. I want that pin to stay in the exact location that I dropped it. Can somebody please help?

Sorry. There's nothing anyone can do. The current version of the facebook app will not run on 4.2.1. The iPhone 3G won't run anything higher than 4.2.1. You're stuck.
Maybe it's time to buy yourself a new iPod Touch.

How to show regions markers in Google maps based on longitude and latitude. on-click of region marker i want to display all the country locations based on the region from share point list?

Hello every one,
In My requirement i am having some regions with longitude and latitude in one SharePoint list. in another SharePoint list i am having the country values with longitude and latitude and region as look up field. I want to display all the region
markers in Google maps. on click of any region marker i want to zoom in the map to region level and i need to display all the country markers in Google maps under the region. can any body help me on this requirement.
Thanks in advance,
Venu.

Not sure about Google Maps but this is fairly easy to do with Bing Maps. I've used Bing Maps with SharePoint lists fairly regularly. Here are some blog posts:
http://blogs.bing.com/maps/2013/03/26/connecting-a-sharepoint-list-to-bing-maps/
http://blogs.bing.com/maps/2013/03/07/geocoding-a-sharepoint-list-item/
Once you have your sharepoint list connected to Bing Maps you can easily filter the list data based on the selected country if you have a country column in your list. If you want to take things a bit further an create a much cooler user experience you can
also use the Bing Maps GeoData API to get the country boundaries and show them on the map as polygons. These could be color coded based on some metric, or set up as the clickable area on the map rather than a pushpin. Here is a blog post on how to use the
GeoData API with the JavaScript Bing Maps control:
