Has anyone solved the Apple Map App problem of no map data?

  I have a blank screen unless zoomed way out when continents are visible in very pale green.  When zoomed in, there is nothing visible at all, except the blue blob showing where I am, and oddly if I turn on traffic, then some traffic symbols appear.  It is impossible to remove then re-install the app, so is there anything else I can do short of restoring the iPhone?
Thanks in advance for replies.

Hi, bridgarw2.
I would recommend closing any open applications in multitasking and restarting the device.  If unfamiliar with multitasking, I have included a screenshot on how to process an application close.  Test the results after processing these steps. 
If the issue persists, see the section labeled Troubleshooting Maps in the article below.

  • Has anyone solved the Apple ID issue yet?

    My 4 year old iTunes ID, a Yahoo email, was disabled as I could not verify it. I could not verify it as I never received the verification email. I get the same problem when I try to reset. iForgot tells me the ID does not exist but when I try to set it up as a new ID I am told it is already in use. I have already removed the email from my .mac Apple ID. Apple support are not responding. Can anyone help? I have a lot of content tied to the Yahoo ID so I can not abandon it.

  • My apps will not download to ipad2 this is something that has just recently happened.Have switched the pad on and off holding buttons down but it makes no difference.Has anyone got the solution to this problem Thank you.

    My apps will not download to iPad 2 This is something that has just recently happened. Have tried re-booting but that makes no difference .
    Has anyone got the answer to this problem please or do I need to take it into an Apple store Thanking you.

    If all of that stuff checks out - and iTunes is telling you that the apps have been downloaded to the iPad - try this.
    Connect your iPad to your computer and launch iTunes. Right click on your iPad name on the left side of iTunes under devices and select Transfer Purchases from the pop up menu. Then sync with iTunes again. Don't eject the iPad yet. If you still don't see the apps on the iPad - click on the Apps Tab in the iTunes window on the right and see if they show up on any of the iPad screens. If they do - make sure that all of the apps are selected (checked) to sync - (checkmarks in the boxes next to the app names) - check to make sure that the Sync Apps heading is checked and as well and then sync again. You may have to click on Apply in the lower right corner of iTunes if the apps were not selected to sync.

  • Has anyone solved the "garbled characters" issue i...

    When I use Nokia Maps on my N95, all streets and towns which contain special characters such as: é, è, ü, ä, ö, etc… do appear garbled. For example,
    Zürich appears as: Zã¼rich
    München appears as: Mã¼nchen
    Liège appears as: Liã"ge
    I saw a couple posts on this forum where people suggested to format the memory card, some other suggested to reload the firmware (my N95 has 12.0.013) but nothing has helped. I went as far as using someone's PC whose WinXP is installed in French - I thought that maybe the operating system or regional settings could have some influence, but I was wrong.
    Has anyone solved this extremely annoying issue?
    Thx

    I solved it. It took me one evening. I wonder why Nokia haven't published any comments on this old issue.
    Solution can be found below, but before I want to tell about some technical details. Maybe guys at Nokia will read them
    As someone on this forum said before the problem is that map names are in UTF-8 format, but phone tries to show them using another encoding. After some googling I found that this issue is well-known because Nokia phones use ISO 8859-1 (which is similar to Windows-1252, Western European) by default but some application assume UTF-8 to be default.
    At first, I discovered that when I start Nokia map with empty SD card and allow it to download something from internet, all names were shown correctly. I supposed that the problem sits in that awful Map Loader, but I was wrong: it does absolutely nothing special with data files, just downloading and unzipping. And this super-mega-feature-rich-map-loader require about 40Mb to download for .NET 3.0 plus 10 Mb for itself. Never seen anything worse
    So I've started to compare contents of one SD card with incorrect street and city names and another with correct.
    After some time I came across Cachedatheader.cdt file in diskcache folder. And what do you think?
    The file from correct SD card contains a literal string: "UTF-8". While incorrect one contains a string saying "ISO 8859-1". I've nearly fell out of my chair after seeing that.
    I've replaced wrong file with correct one and names became readable on all my 180mb of previously downloaded maps.
    Finally, after playing with it some more I found a simple solution which should work for everyone:
    ***** SOLUTION *****
    1. Enable internet access in Nokia Maps application (set it to When Needed).
    2. Access memory card from your PC and go to "\PRIVATE\20001f66\diskcache" folder.
    3. Delete "CachedatHeader.cdt" file. Perhaps you should backup it somewhere before deleting, but it looks like it can be removed safely without affecting existing maps.
    4. Put the card back in the phone if you extracted it and start Nokia Maps.
    5. Allow Nokia Maps to access internet and try downloading some new locations (you don't need to download much, just let it access server) or searching for something.
    6. Now codepage should be correct and all names become readable.
    This effect seems to be permanent and will stay even if you disable internet access later. Also note that you don't have to format card, remove or reinstall any map files. The problem is just in one small file.
    Nokia Maps recreates missing CachedatHeader.cdt, but it will recreate it correctly only if internet access is enabled when it starts. Probably the best way to avoid wrong codepage problem is to enable internet access at first start of Nokia Maps and use Map Loader only after downloading some bits of map directly from the phone.

  • Has anyone solved the privilege error message in iTunes?

    Has anyone solved this? I can't get itunes to upload anything because it keeps producing this error message. I've followed the advice on other threads to change 'read & write' access and enable it across all, yet this has absolutely had no impact. Does anyone have any suggestions as to how to get round it so we can use itunes again please? Thanks.

    Hi,
    I got iTunes 7.3 running fine on my home computer (G5
    2.7, OSX10.4.10) but still cannot get it to run on my
    office MacPro Intel 2.66 without the -50 error. I
    even tried downloading again this morning a new
    installer from the Apple site.
    Try what I did, it worked for me. Do the video podcasts solution part first. It's fairly painless to apply, and above all works.

  • Has anyone download the Airport Utility app on their iPod Touch or iPhone?

       Just was wondering if anyone downloaded the Airport Utility app from the app store onto their iPod Touch, iPad or iPhone? You can see a picture of your Time Capsule's nework and a picture of your Time Capsule right on your iOS device (iPod Touch, iPhone or iPad) and it's quite nice that you can actually see a picture of your network. It shows current status and a diagram/picture of your network. You can also make changes to your network right from your iOS device. This is a nice feature to have on your portable device.
       I was just wondering how anyone else liked this feature?

  • Has anyone solved the problem with " lagging " response when opening nay app ?

    since " upgrading " ( if you can call it that ! ) to IOS7 on iPhone 4, everyone is complaining about the delay when opening any App. At the Genius bar at Apple store they referred to this as " lagging ". After a quick diagnostic of my phone, they suggested a full Restore. Big waste of my time and data. No change whatsoever. I had to go through the full process of syncronizing music and photos and resetting everything.
    I also talked about the new Calendar and especially the Reminders. The new Reminders App is quite simply horrible and no longer attractive and consequently a useless Icon. Even the calendar is labor intensive. I tried to register a future doctor's appointment and the receptionist finally said " Why dont I just call you a day befpre ? ". How Apple managed to make something so simple so complicated is beyond me. The rotary calendar anc clock is a joke.
    It bears repeating, Apple makes too many unnecessary design changes, I dont want to have to invest all this time going to work shops to figure out what they have done with basic apps, especially if its to find out what I already figured out.
    I would however like to know what Apple intends to do about the lagging. I have another 18 months on the iPhone 4.

    No. It was designed to work that way.

  • Has anyone solved the problem of sending Pages docs to Windows machines?

    I am trying to create a business newsletter that can be emailed to anyone who wants it. I'm working with OS X 10.4.10 and Pages. My business partner, who works on a PC, can't read a Pages doc, so I converted it to a pdf, and Windows won't read that, either. So I exported it as a Word doc, and he can read that, except the colors aren't true. What kind of a program creates files that pdf readers can't view? And why did I spend my money on Pages if it can't create a file everyone can read?

    Strange, I've been emailing PDFs with no problems at all.
    I am the only MAC-MAN in the office so all my work goes to 100% PC "market".
    A wild guess - are you using Apple Mail app? If so, make sure the "Send Windows friendly attachments" is selected.
    Do not encrypt the PDFs.
    Do not include EPS graphics (just in case...)
    JPEGs rather than TIFFs (dunno why, but better safe...)
    And most importantly, make sure the end users have the latest Acrobat Reader!!!
    You would be surprised to find how many "incompatibilities" boil down to obsolete software being used.
    To give you an example, I did an internal use web page using a FLASH animation, and several users sent me VERY ANGRY emails that the "MAC crap" doesn't work on their computers, well, guess what, for security (MS-security, not REAL security) FLASH was disabled on the network computers, nuf'said!
    Failing all above, send HTML.
    Hope you solve the problem. Keep us posted.

  • Has anyone solved the car integration problem with iOS8?

    iOS8 broke my car radio's ability to control my iPhone to play music.  I use USB, but many people in this community also suffered this over Bluetooth.
    Resetting network settings, or installing an iOS update, will make it work once or twice (connecting to the car) but not more.
    Has anyone figured out a permanent fix?
    Does Apple acknowledge this bug?

    Afraid start up is still rough.  Even more button pressing required to access.  Some apps still reluctant to open.  Either slow or simply won't open. 
    THanks  for your comments.

  • Has anyone solved the "all mail marked as junk" problem?

    Mail marks almost all incoming mail and all sent mail as junk. I've found some inconclusive posts on this but no solution. Can anyone explain (or, better) fix this problem?

    Hi
    have you read this thread? http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=292113&tstart=100
    esp about disabling junk filter & quitting mail.
    You're using junk filter in automatic mode?
    anyhow - blank field spam does seem to figure in breaking mail's junk filtering. Are you able to create a rule using the applescript linked to in my previous post?. If so - create one & put it at the top of the rule list to weed out any blank subject mail.
    Still a problem?
    quit & restart mail - make sure junk filtering is enabled
    delete/empty the junk folder.
    Find the mail in your inbox that's marked as junk & move it to the junk folder ( select them all & drag , or messages-move from the menu )
    In the junk box, pick one of the moved messages & click 'not junk' - does it get moved back to the inbox? is it still marked as junk (assuming it did move back...)
    If clicking 'not junk' isn't behaving - select all the messages & move/drag them back to the inbox. Are they still marked as junk? (hopefully not)
    Repeat above with the 'sent' mailbox.
    Disable junk filtering in mail prefs
    quit mail & open it again
    re-enable junk filtering
    Any better?.....
    If you're still having problems - make a note of all your rules ( you 'might' have to re-enter them)
    Quit mail
    find the folder ~/library/Mail & drag a copy of the folder to the desktop (mouse + Alt) . Locate the file com.apple.mail.plist in ~/library/preferences/ & drag a copy of that to the desktop too.
    These copies enable you to restore your mail to exactly as it is now - in case anything went wrong in the next stage. NOT that I expect it to, having tried all these things on my own mail installation......
    Make sure mail is not running.
    go into the original ~/library/Mail/ folder & trash these two files - LSMMap2 and MessageRules.plist
    start Mail , go to prefs & make sure that junk filter is enabled for your account(s)
    Send a message & see if it's marked as junk.
    If you had a lot of rules & don't want to re-enter them manually - you can try quitting mail, replacing the MessageRules.plist file in the real Mail folder with the one from the copy made earlier & re-starting Mail.
    If sent/junk is fixed - remember it may break again with a blank field email.
    Sorry to write so much - but remember, I don't have the problem- so I can't test to see exactly what might fix it & just tell you the good bits.

  • Has anyone solved the iPod touch and Comcast email problem?

    The reason I got a touch is to check email when traveling. As of a few weeks ago, I could no longer do this. The comcast.net page now requires Flash and directs me to the install page (which I cannot download to the touch). I asked about this at the Apple Store and the touch doesn't have/cannot have Flash.
    Has anyone figured out how to get past the Flash page to just sign in and get email? I am going around with Comcast about this -- they continue to mix up the iPhone and the touch. I will post if I get a solution from them. In the meantime, can anyone help?

    If you do NOT have the January Software Update, you must use the Webmail for Comcast. from Safari, type in http://mobilebeta.comcast.net works as advertised.
    If you have purchase the January Software update:
    Click 'Mail' Application
    Click 'Other'
    POP Information
    'Name' is whatever name you want to call the account
    'Address' is you email address
    'Description' Whatever you want to call the account
    Incoming Mail Server
    Host Name = mail.comcast.net
    User Name = [Your email address]
    Password = [Your password] THIS IS CASE SENSITIVE
    Outgoing Mail Server (SMTP)
    Host Name: smtp.comcast.net
    User Name = [Your email address]
    Password = [Your password] THIS IS CASE SENSITIVE
    It is really easy: just followed comcast for Outlook link
    http://www.comcast.net/help/faq/index.jsp?faq=EmailOutlook17742
    Looks a lot nicer than in the web.
    If you make any errors or need to change anything, go to home, then settings, then Mail

  • Has anyone solved the FaceTime problem of seeing, being seen, hearing but " not being heard"

    I have used facetime and Skype with my family. We could see and hear each other. Now, however, they can see but not hear me even though I can see and hear them. I have seen others complain about this. Has anyone received a response or answer from Apple?

    I have found a few people talking about it, but not seen any responses from Apple as to how or if it's fixed yet.  Same thing with my parents brand new iMac... using Facetime, I can see, hear them fine, they can see me fine, but not hear me.....nothing on either end is set incorrectly after checking over and over from other threads.
    Waiting for Apple to fix basically........

  • Has anyone solved the Yosemite and WebEx issue

    Ever since upgrading to Yosemite, my WebEx service has become unstable, I get varying issues from complete failure to connect, to bouncing WebEx icon on my tray, through to occasional connectivity.  This issue seems to be well known, certainly within my office I am not alone with this issue. Apparently, there is an issue with Pac files and how Yosemite interacts.  Has anyone found a fix for this ?

    So why won't my password work?
    A quote from another thread:
    "Long story short the Apple Genius Bar rep told me that they KNOW it's a software flaw, but unfortunately, they have no way to fix it, other than restoring my phone to factory settings" (https://discussions.apple.com/thread/3407403?start=15&tstart=0)
    I am not the only one with this problem. I was hoping someone had a solution or even a helpful suggestion.

  • Has anyone deleted the Lenovo Store app on an A1?

    I have no desire to use the Lenovo app store and I would like to delete the app which isn't a problem given that I have root access and the appropriate tool for deleting the app.
    My only concern is what will happen to the toolbar on the bottom of the launch page since it includes a shortcut for launching the Lenovo Store app...does that shortcut just "disappear" , is it replaced with a different shortcut, is the shortcut permanently stuck on the toolbar as a dead shortcut, or is the shortcut just replaced with a blank area, or what?
    Hopefully someone has already done this and can provide some feedback which would be appreciated.
    thanks

    I use the GO Launcher and the GO Locker. The toolbar becomes totally user definable. You can put anything at the bottom that you want. Very easy to use, and fairly intuitive. I have not found a way to get rid of the Lenovo App Shop. Pity.
    BTW Go Launcher and Locker are free. You might also want to check out the GO Keyboard. Yes I know we have that, but it is customized for Lenovo, I like the standard GO Keyboard much better.
