I want to delete a pin in Maps

I've created some pins in Maps that I want to remove, but this is no longer possible. I've Googled it several times, but none of the answers apply. I guess this has been changed yet again in iOS8. I'm gathering that Apple doesn't want it's users to just be able to do something basic that should be simple, and maybe even stay the same way over time, but what would be the challenge in that?

Some of both, I think. The ones that are bugging me right now are the ones you see when you do a Search listed as potential places, probably based on a previous search. But I'd like to be able to remove any kind of pin that is no longer useful. I googled and one suggested that I go to a place and click on "Recents",  but the only recents I see are the list that automatically appears when I start a search, which are not labeled, just listed. The other method suggested I click on the "blue arrow" somewhere, which I didn't see when I went there. I gather that this procedure has changed many times, probably with every update of Maps, which is making it more difficult than it should be. I'm using 8.02 right now.
If you know of a way to do this, I would be most appreciative.

  • I want to see multiple pins on Maps app.  Is this possible?

    Basically, I would love to be able to click on Maps app on my iphone, and depending on where I am, see the map and any bookmarks I have saved in my phone.  For example, if I wanted to pin all my contacts on a map and see pins on where they are, but ALWAYS stay there.  It's also usefull for places you want to remember, that you walk by, for example.  I want the pins to stay there..even if I exit the map.  Let's say for example I have errands to run.  So I look up the 6 places I need to go to on my bike, then make pins for them so the next day I can open up my maps app and, voila, there they are.
    I've tried bookmarking pins, but this doesn't work.  After a while the pins disappear.  Does anyone know of a way to do this?
    Thanks!

    I would LOVE a solution that allowed to see, perhaps greenish pins? that pull from your bookmarks. I usually drop a pin when i find a handy wifey. SSID+Street & Street

    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 do I delete the old Google Maps applicaiton

    I think I have a problem that many wish they had prior to google releasing an updated Maps application.  I updated to iOS6 and got the new Apple Maps app, but still retained the Google Maps app as well.  This is one of the kind of apps that can't be deleted, like SMS, Phone, etc.
    I can move it around, and generally used to just stuff it away on the last page, but now I want to make an effort to remove it.
    Looking at the file system, at the .ipa files, the built in .ipa's are not included.  Anyone know where those are stored, so perhaps I could remove that, to see if it would remove it from my phone on next sync?
    I did a backup and restore the other day, still no change.  I did a backup, completely erased my phone to factory, then did a restore, which also didn't work.  And finally, though I really didn't want to, I went ahead and erased my phone with the intention of rebuilding it from scratch, though the darn Maps app was still there, so  just backed up a step and did a restore to my last backup point to save the hassle of setting up my phone from ground zero.
    I have added two screen shots, one wiht my mouse selecting a normal app so you can see I get the "X" to delete icon on the app, and the other with the maps application selected so that you can see I DO NOT get the "X".
    I filtered the left list to just the google ones, but have tried various other combinations such as "maps" to locate it, it is not in the list, just as "phone", "sms", and "mail" are not in the list.
    Any help would be appreciated

    Older versions of the SMS app I don't even believe we're called "SMS" but "Messages" though I could be wrong on that. There were differences in the SMS app regarding FaceTime. The current app has a button at the top that allows you to jump that conversation into FacrTime. Older versions didn't have that button as FaceTime was not released yet.
    Yes, I can delete the new Google Maps App, it is an app I downloaded from the App Store. What I can't delete is the icon labeled Maps, which is also a google app, not a bookmark.
    For the large majority of users of iPhones of compatable hardware, when they upgraded to iOS6 the Google maps application that was part of a default iPhone installation was deleted. In it's place was installed Apples debatably botched Maps application.
    In my case, that didn't happen. I was left with both applications still intact. At first I didn't even understand why everyone was so upset with Apples Maps implementation. From my perspective, if they didn't like it they could simply use the Google Maps application they had been using all along. Then I started to see people asking where they could download the old Google Maps App and it started to make sense. Their system no longer had the app. They only had one choice, Apple 's Mapping app, while I still maintained both choices.
    I'm looking for others who have experienced this and solved it. I've seen similar cases where different apps hang around longer than they should, but never found a solution. I assume over time enough users will report this to Apple and a software update will correct it. I however, would like to correct it now.

  • I want to delete all transparent pixels, how can I? CS6

    I would like to delete all transparent pixels surrounding my irregularly (non-square) image.  The TRIM function only trims to a square surrounding my image and not to the edge of the image itself.  Is there a work around for this?  I have looked around and haven't found one. 
    Thanks,
    JB

    Image have rectangular area they have a width and height boundaries as do layer.  Not all of the rectangular area need to have content or be fully opaque,  However the image boundary is a rectangle.  Some file formats are like a Photoshop Background layer do not support empty area or even transparency so those file formats only contain image that are rectangles and have no transparency. Some file formats support transparency and empty areas so those images can be any shape and contain transparency still the image boundary is rectangular. Then there is the GIF file format an oddball format. It only supports 256 Colors. Pixels are mapped to one of the 256 colors selected for the image.  If you want Transparency in a gif  the number of colors is reduced by 1 to 255  the 256 color now indicate no content its not real transparency it just a no color pixel in other words off or no content.
    So if you have areas that are 100% transparent there is nothing to delete the area is empty.  If you have pixels that contain some transparency and you delete those pixels you delete details are you sure you want to delete all pixels that contain transparency? You will loose things like drop shadows

  • Desktop Manager wants to delete contacts in Outlook while syncing

    I have the 9530, Outlook 2002 and DM 4.7. While syncing contacts and calendar the DM wants to delete some of my contacts for example that are on Outlook. I don't know why. I can review what it wants to do but I cannot tell DM to not delete that contact. I have to accept or reject all the entries. I would like to be able to highlight an entry and accept or reject each one individually. I now have changed the settings so that only Outlook changes are put onto the Storm, one way. But then I can't get any changes from the Storm onto Outlook unless I enter them in outlook manually. Does anyone know any way to set things up that work better ? Or does anyone know of any third party apps that synch with Outlook better than DM 4.7?

  • TS3991 I want to delete my iCloud on my pad but I can't because my password is wrong and when I want to reset my password I can't I can't reset my password

    I want to delete my iCloud on my iPad but the Apple ID wants my password. I don't know it and when I hit reset I choose answer security questions and my birthdate doesn't match ***. Then I choose reset by email and it says email sent when I receive my info follow directions in my email. There's no emails *** do I do now

    Hello there, Lorijorules.
    The following Knowledge Base article offers up some great information to get a resolution of your issue by contacting Apple Support:
    Apple ID: All about Apple ID security questions
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5665
    What should I do if I don't remember the answers to my Apple ID security questions?
    If you forgot the answers to your security questions, try answering them at least once to see if you can get them right, even if you're not sure you remember the answers. If you're confident that you can't remember them, try one of the following:
    If you have three security questions and a rescue email address, sign in to My Apple ID and select the “Password and Security” tab to send an email to your rescue email address to reset your security questions and answers.
    If you have one security question and you know your Apple ID password, sign in to My Apple ID and select the “Password and Security” tab to reset your security question.
    If you have one security question, but don't remember your Apple ID password, contact Apple Support for assistance. Learn more about creating a temporary support PIN to help Apple confirm your identity when you contact Apple Support.
    Note: If you forgot your password and answer your security questions incorrectly too many times in a row, you will be unable to try to answer your security questions for a period of time. During that time, you will not be able to reset your password and will not have access to your account.
    Thanks for reaching out to Apple Support Communities.
    Cheers,
    Pedro.
