Google maps...dropped pin

ii cant seem to find out how to delete a dropped pin after i make the final drop and it changes from purple to red.
i was playing around with the new feature and i dropped a pin 2 blocks from my house that doesnt man anything to me and now i cant delete it from the map.

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.

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

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.

In FX 8 (WinXP and Linux) I'm not able to change a route of the Google Maps routeplanner via drag&drop, the markers of start and destination don't appear and therefore cannot be moved, either.

Usually (IE, Firefox 7 and below) if you go along the blue line of a route planned by Google Maps, a small circle appears which can be dragged and dropped to other roads so that the routeplanner changes the route. This is impossible with Fx 8, the circle doesn't appear and when trying to drag&drop I only move the map. The same applies to the markers which mark the start and destination of the route, they are not visible and cannot be moved. Disabling Adblock and Firegestures didn't solve the problem.
When the page is loading for a moment you can see the symbol for an image which is not yet loaded both where the markers should be and if you go along the line with the mouse. As soon as the page is completely loaded you don't see this anymore.

There is opened a bug in Bugzilla:

What are these new red pins in google maps

So I'm exploring ios5 on my new iphone 4s. In google maps I'm laying down some red pins for location based reminders and suddenly I'm seeing red pins all around my location that I cant get rid of. I'm imagining this is some sort of advertsing based thing from google. The pins are distracting, are for nothing I'm interested in in any way, and there is no way to differentiate them from pins I have laid down myself (that aere actually of interest to me).
Does anyone know whats up with these? Is there any way to delete them, control them or turn them off. I really dont expect the built in software that I pay a fortune to use through my purchase of the phone to have its functionality diminished by something like this. I live in NYC if anyone that pays a fee gets a red pin I cant remove on my phone, There will be nothing but red pins and the thing will become worthless.
I have never seen this before so I'm guessing its a new thing but I really havent tried to use the phone this way before. Has it been around for a while?

never mind. somehow home was on the top screen in maps and i think the pins were a result from that search.

Using drop pin feature in maps with other applications

Hi members, hope one of you can guide me. How do I find code or hyperlink to allow an iPad user use a ' find on map' link on an interactive digital magazine to allow the drop pin function on maps show the user the location they were looking for on maps. I understand that I am trying to use the existing features in maps and need to get my link to connect with and inform maps the details the user is looking for.
I hope my ramblings make sense. Mike

Hi there,
If you are asking about app development, then you are in the wrong place.Head over to the developer forums and ask there. A link is below.

IPad: How do I delete a drop pin on maps?

New user & have too many drop pins. I would like to delete some of them. Please help!

Tap on the pin. Then tap on the circled i. Thee may be an option to remove the pin. However, the pin may be associated with an address in your contact app and I think that you have to remove the address to remove the pin for a contact address. Also, you can associate a pin with a Map app bookmark. To remove those pins yo have to delete the Map bookmark.

How do I label dropped pins in Maps?

How do I label dropped pins in Maps? It would really be helpful to be able to label a dropped pin on a map with something like "Elk Hunting Spot". I can't find how to do that.

When you drop a pin it should create a label for you.

Pin myself but found Google Map is not real time map (few years before)

I recently pin a place on my event, but I found google map is not a real time map (not a few days different but few years different) It is an old map. I discovered this from the satalile map.
Any one can help on this?
Thanks

I think this is a problem that affects some areas of the world, especially Asia where governments are a little more sensitive. It is the same here where from my window I can see a new bridge completed some 3 years ago that is not shown at all.

Why doesn't the map search locations and only drops pins?

I started a project in iPhoto and used the map to show various locations. It was easy to insert the locations as the map searched them for you. Now I only appear to be able to drop pins and label them. This is going to be very time consuming if I have to precisely search each location manually... Any suggestions?

How do you set the location of a phot if it has nort recorded the GPS co-ords ?
I cannot see a way to drop a pin !... Tx
This discussion is about photos on the map pages in a photo book. You can drop pins on the map of a book to mark a place, but that does not assign a location to a photo.
While viewing a map in a book, ctrl-click a place on the map and select "Drop Pin".
Adding location data to photos is not supported in Photos. I hope, the next update will add this necessary feature.
Send feedback with a feature request: Apple - Photos - Feedback
For the time being, you have to add GPS coordinates to the photos before importing them to Photos.
You could, for example, first import to iPhoto, add the locations, batch change the titles and captions, do all the things that are not yet supported in the new Photos, then export the photos from iPhoto and import them to Photos.
Or use the free exiftool, if you like the Terminal.
See: http://www.sno.phy.queensu.ca/~phil/exiftool/exiftool_pod.html#geotagging_exampl es
To install exiftool: http://www.sno.phy.queensu.ca/%7Ephil/exiftool/install.html
Other convenient apps are Jetphoto Studio, Geotagalog, houdahGeo, there are many more ..
I use Jetphoto Studio, but it is not free.
If you updated iPhpto to version 9.6.1 before the update, you can still use iPhoto.
Just drag it back to the Dock from the Applications folder.
If you not yet have 9.6.1, update as described here:
Get iPhoto 9.6.1 if you didn't update before OS... | Apple Support Communities
The main idea is to move the iPhoto app to the Trash, so Spotlight does not see it as installed, reload the AppStore, and then to try to download again from the App Store - from your Purchases tab, not from the main page, since you can neither buy iPhoto nor update it, but you can reinstall, if your AppleID is associated with it.

Assign contact to dropped pin on Maps

Hi,
As topic says how to assign contact to dropped pin on the map. Sometimes maps can't find address of person which I would like to assign to that location so I drop pin on that location but then I can't get an option to "assign to existing contact" etc.
Is there any other way to do that?
Thanks
