Just downloaded iOS 6. Cannot view maps at street level now. Any solutions?

Just downloaded iOS 6. Cannot view maps at street level now. Any solutions? Apple help told me I cannot delete iOS 6 and go back to 5.1.1

Apple is constantly working on improving their new Maps service, but until it reaches the level of finesse necessary to be usable, take a look at some alternatives.
Bing Maps offers a very good maps service with Bird's Eye, a feature similar to Flyover. It's arguably better than Google Maps.

You can use Google Maps by creating a shortcut to the Home Screen with help from the article below.

MapQuest also has a very nice app available.

Nokia Maps is another great service that you can add to your Home Screen via a web shortcut.

Waze is another very well reviewed app.

Here's an article detailing how to receive Public Transport directions.

If you want a YouTube app, Google has made a very improved version available on the App Store.

If you would like to send a suggestion to Apple, please go to http://www.apple.com/feedback or you can Report a Problem via the Maps app by tapping the bottom right.

  • I just downloaded IOS 8.5.3 on my iPad3. Now I cannot open it. Whenever I touch the screen Siri tells me what I am doing, but nothing works: I cannot enter my password and I cannot slide to open. I am frozen out from my iPad

    you are right about the IOS number. I couldn't access my iPad so I guessed and guessed wrong about the number. It was the latest upgrade offered by Apple for my iPad, which I dowloaded and installed. I have done some sleuthing and discovered that some of the problems are the result of the Accessibility - Voiceover being activated. Once I figured that out, I was able to navigate somewhat better, though I now cannot turn Voiceover off. I slide the button and it just revert to On. The other problem I have now discovered that the iPad only rarely will accept my password. This is a password that I know and love and use many times during the day (as all of us iPhone and iPad users do) Now it seems to reject my password 80+% of the time. I would disable password protection if I could. I think I am going to have to talk to Apple directly but wonder if anyone else has had this kind of trouble with the newest IOS. It worked fine on my iPhone.
    I will try triple tapping the home button if I can ever get it opened again.

    Good morning.
    Apple no longer includes Flash with the new Macs.  So, if you run into things that require Flash you must, if you want to view them, go to the Adobe site and download the Flashplayer as Paul_31 suggested.
    Enjoy your day.

  • Just downloaded IOS 6 and it disabled my favorite game, Bubblets Tilt, and it won't let me reload this game I originally bought through the Apps store because it says it is no longer sold in the US. I tried to download off website and same. Help!

    Just downloaded IOS 6 and it disabled my favorite game, Bubblets Tllt. Restarted and no luck. Tried to download new app and it is gone. Tried to download from website off Safari and message it is no longer sold in the US. Please help. Apple owes me for the cost of this app. Plus Google Maps is infinitely better and that the download kicking it off makes me want to buy an android. And I am not alone is resenting this meddling in my right to keep what I originally purchased. What are they thinking?

    hi Bern 
    Firstly welcome to Crowd Support  
    The Australian Communications Industry Forum (ACIF) Credit Management code states that Telstra must perform s credit assessment when a customer is applying to us for credit.   
    For our Credit Assessments to be passed there are many factors of information considered to determine if the Credit Assessment is satisfied. 
    There are many reasons why a Credit application may be declined, and one of the most common is due to the new Customer not having any previous history with Telstra.
    While this may be frustrating for you, in the circumstance of a Mobile Phone contract being involved, we really do need to be sure that we have the correct billing information, up to date contact details and also viability to pay bills on time. 
    There is a process where this decline decision can be disputed, and I would be more than happy to lodge this dispute for you if you could provide me with some information. 
    I will send you a PM so that we can work together offline to lodge this dispute.

    If you have an old ID in Settings>iCloud as a result of updating to iOS 7, to change it you have to go to Settings>iCloud, tap Delete Account, provide the password for the old ID when prompted to turn off Find My iPhone, then sign back in with the ID you wish to use.  If you don't know the password for your old ID, or if it isn't accepted, go to https//appleid.apple.com, click Manage my Apple ID and sign in with your current iCloud ID.  Tap edit next to the primary email account, tap Edit, change it back to your old email address and save the change (you should need to verify the old account).  Then edit the name of the account to change it back to your old email address.  You can now use your current password to turn off Find My iPhone on your device, even though it prompts you for the password for your old account ID. Then go to Settings>iCloud, tap Delete Account and choose Delete from My iDevice when prompted (your iCloud data will still be in iCloud).  Next, go back to https//appleid.apple.com and change your primary email address and iCloud ID name back to the way it was.  Now you can go to Settings>iCloud and sign in with your current iCloud ID and password.

  • I just downloaded IOS 7 but it wont let me login to my apple ID for imessasge or Facetime what should i do?

    I just downloaded IOS 7 but it wont let me login to my apple ID for imessasge or Facetime what should i do?

    Try resetting ...
    Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button and the Home button together for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears
    Then try again.

  • I just downloaded IOS 6.1.2 and it won't recognize my password.  I have reset it on my Apple ID and it still says it's incorrect.

    I just downloaded IOS 6.1.2 on my iPhone 4  and it won't recognize my password.  I have reset it on my Apple ID and it still says it's incorrect.  What do I need to do?

    There are two more things to try. If the first thing you try fails, try the next.
    Two Button Reset.
    This is the least likely to result in loss of data.  Read that again, especially the phrase "least likley."
    Unplug the phone form the computer.
    Press and hold both the home and the sleep/wake buttons (ignore the red slider) until you see the silver Apple logo.
    When you see the logo, let both buttons go.
    If this worked, you should see an icon instructing you to connect to iTunes.  My guess is that the reset did not work.
    DFU Restore
    This will very likley result in loss of data.
    Plug the iPhone into the computer.
    Ensure that it is running the lates version of iTunes and that it has access to the internet.
    Press and hold both the home and sleep/wake buttons for exactly eight seconds.
    Release only the sleep/wake button but continue to hold the home button for another five seconds.
    Let go of the home button, then look at the computer screen for an instructional popup.
    The popup should say "iTunes has detected a device in covery mode. . .(etc)"  Click accept to all boxes and let iTunes download and install all of the latest device Firmware and Software.
    If no popup appears, repeat the above DFU instructions.  If you 've never done a DFU, it may take about three attempts to get the timing right.

  • I just downloaded IOS 8 on my Iphone 5 and to do so i had to delete all my photos to clear space, but before so I selected all of them and copied them. Now were can i go to paste all 400 of them and get them back ?

    I just downloaded IOS 8 on my Iphone 5 and to do so i had to delete all my photos to clear space, but before so I selected all of them and copied them. The only place I can seem to be able to paste and see them is while making a new message in gmail and then when i tried to send them the message comes back blank and looks like below. what can i do to retrieve them?
    <Edited by Host>

    As razmee209 said, you can use iTunes to install photos on your phone from wherever you have them stored. Where did you copy them to? Are you saying you selected them on you phone and just hit "copy"? That would only copy one at a time to the "clipboard" so that you can paste it somewhere else. As you copy each one, the previous one is deleted from the clipboard. This is not a storage area. Did you back them up on your computer or in iCloud?

    Hi Michellem_14,
    Have you reset or restarted your iPhone since the update?
    Hold down the home button and the power button until you see an Apple logo
    Release both buttons and the iPhone will restart.

  • I just downloaded iOS 6 on my iPhone 4 and now can no longer open internet links that were texted to me.  Anyone else having the same problem?

    I just downloaded iOS 6 on my iPhone 4 and now can no longer open internet links that were texted to me.  Anyone else having the same problem or know how to fix this? 

    The SMS links thing is highly annoying. You don't have to copy/paste however. You should see an icon like this: (>) to the right of the text bubble with the link. Tap on that, the in the screen that opens, tap "Visit".
    Alternatively, you can tap twice directly on the link, then hold your finger down after the second tap.
    Still unnecessarily difficult, but not as bad as copy/paste.
    What I don't get is why can't I find any mention of this change or how to fix it (if even possible) elsewhere online?

Maybe you are looking for
