Launch google maps in hybrid view?

i'm developing an iphone app, and want to launch google maps in hybrid view with a location. is this possible? or will the map app always open according to the last user setting?

When you query the google map add 't=h' (where 't' is the type of map and 'h' means hybrid).
i.e. URL: "http://maps.google.com/maps?q=cupertino&t=h"
This website will give you much more info: "http://mapki.com/wiki/GoogleMapParameters"

  • Google maps street-level view works in Safari but not Firefox 3.6.8

    I've lost the ability to see street-level views in Google Maps, probably in the last couple of months, and suspect Firefox.

    Perfect! Thanks cor-el: Good instructions. It was the add-on extension FlashBlock, which makes some sense, in that what wasn't happening with the street-level feature was that I wasn't getting the image of the street. Cannot now reconstruct what led me to <https://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/Troubleshooting+extensions+and+themes>, but your instructions got me there, and following the trouble-shooting steps narrowed down the problem, the way one used to have to do with Mac extension, identify the culprit by process of elimination and going first for those that might make sense, as FlashBlock did to me, whether for the right or wrong reason.

  • Has anyone heard when Google Map's Street View will be supported??

    I thought it might be included with the recent update but that just got me iTunes...

    Nothing has been announced by either Apple or Google.

  • In google maps I cannot go to street view as I can in my other browsers. It tries to but quits and then says "done"

    Google maps has street view where you can virtually put yourself on the street and move in 360 degrees of rotation and move in any direction to see the address you just looked up as it appears if you were standing in front of it. It used to work in earlier Firefox but in 3.6.9 it tries to but quits before it accomplishes the task stating "done" in the bottom lower left on the taskbar(?) then leaves a blank white screen. All necessary plug ins have been installed; Adobe Flash Player, Java, Shockwave. It works fine in Google Chrome and explorer but Firefox is my browser the browser I use over all others.

    If you use extensions like <i>Adblock Plus</i> or <i>NoScript</i> or <i>Flashblock</i> that can block content then make sure that such extensions aren't blocking content.

  • Google maps in jsff

    Has anybody had any luck getting google maps to load in a jsff? My code works fine in a jspx, but in the jsff I just get a grey panel.
    The code is pretty simple
      var myOptions =
        zoom : 6, mapTypeId : google.maps.MapTypeId.HYBRID
      map = new google.maps.Map(document.getElementById("pt1:r1:2:mapPH"), myOptions);I know the div is being found because I have debug info checking that call higher up in the function.
    Thanks

  • Flash 11.1.102.55 crashes IE8 on Google Maps / street view

    Since the Flash update to 11.1.102.55 I have had repeated crashes of my 32 bit Windows XP SP3 system.  They typically have happened in Internet Explorer 8, 32 bit version (updated with latest MS patches).
    Sometimes the IE8 lock ups can be cleared by using task manager.  About 30% of the time, a machine power down/ reset is the only solution -- the screen freezes (mouse won't move, clock stops, Ctrl-Alt-Del won't work).
    The machine is a Lenovo Z61p with 3Gb available memory.
    I have been able to repeat the crashes by going to Google maps.
    Example:
    1. Go to Google Maps
    2. Look at Arlington National Cemetery in regular view
    3. Move the "Street View" stick figure to one of the Panarama photo points.  Screen with show photo view
    4. In the shrunken lower right corner map view, expand the map view to cover half the screen.
    Things may get dicy about now.
    5. Try moving the stick figure on the map.  OR try expanding the photo to full screen.
    I get repeated lockup at this point.

    Try using a different browser. I use Firefox which you can download from here: http://www.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/fx/
    If you don't like the "Tabs On Top" layout, you can move them to below the location bar by simply right clicking a blank part of it and then click the menu items called "Tabs on top" to remove the checkmark. Tabs will subsequently appear below. Other tab layout options can be found in this support article: http://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/how-do-i-customize-toolbars
    There are no issues with Google Maps as far as I'm aware.

  • Using Google Maps Street View on My MacBook Pro

    Recently, I have been getting "Plug-In Missing" in the place of a video in a blog post. Also, when I try to use Street View in Google Maps I get a box that tells me I need to install Adobe Flash Player 10 or later to be able to use Street View. Should I try to download and install Adobe Flash Player? What could I use to be able to use Google Maps Street View and/or to play videos?

    I found my reply elsewhere - you have to uncheck "contacts" and then recheck it. Kinda idiotic, but there you have it!

  • Street View (google maps) not working on Firefox with SNA

    I have a problem with Firefox when trying to use Street View in Google Maps. It basically kills the browser by being extremely slow. Now, this happens only when using SNA acceleration (default), but not with UXA or GLAMOR (just removed on latest update or xf86-video-intel). Everything else works fast and good with SNA, including WebGL in Firefox. Moreover, with Chromium I don't have this issue: Street View works fine with SNA.
    This is an Intel based laptop with Gen5 Intel graphics (and in case it matters, I use KDE desktop):
    # cat /var/log/Xorg.0.log | grep SNA
    [455944.801] (II) intel(0): SNA initialized with Ironlake (gen5) backend
    Anyone else noticed this? Any idea of what can be the problem?

  • Google Map Integration with Map Viewer is not working

    Hi Team,
    My MapViewer Version: Ver11_1_1_7_B130111
    I have created a Google Map (with Type of Map Source as "Google Maps") in Oracle Map Viewer and i could see google map in Oracle Map Viewer(using "show Map").
    I wanted to show a village map theme over the above google map in a web page and i am using Jdeveloper to integrate map viewer with Village data. I could see the google maps inside Jdeveloper however when i run the Jdeveloper code google map is not shown inside the web page.
    I tried with Oracle Maps, Bing Maps as the "map source" in map viewer and tried integrating inside Jdeveloper and got same result (blank screen). However when i tried a different mapviewer ( Base Map ELOCATION.WORLD_MAP from OracleFMW MapViewer Home ) i could see the map in the web page.
    I could get all other base maps (created with "internal" as the map source") in the web page, so there is some thing that i am missing with Google Maps, Bing Maps, Oracle Maps. Could you please help me what is that i am missing or point to a help resource?
    Thanks
    Nag

    Hi Jayanth,
    Issue is solved after creating the web page using latest JDeveloper (11.1.2.4). Thanks a lot for your help
    With Regards

  • New Google maps street view is very slow in FF 31.2.0 on Linux (RHEL 6.3)

    The new google streetview (which does not use Flash) is unusable and renders very slow starting with pixelated images that progressively build. The slowness is not present in FF30.0 on Windows.

  • Although I have been using Google Maps App in India for a while now (without any issues) but I still want to know if there are any plans for launching Turn by Turn Navigation under the OOTB Map App for iOS?

    It has been quite a while since Apple came up with Map App of their own and should be releasing improved maps with more capabilities in India.

    No one here can answer your question, as there is no one from Apple here, & no one here represents Apple or speaks for Apple.

  • Google Maps does not show street view or choice of map or satellite on 4.01. IE does.

    I installed 4.01 on XP. Google Maps opens with satellite view. I cannot find toggle for maps. Street View is not available.
    These still show up on IE8. VPike.com which is powered by Google Maps works fine.

  • Why does Google maps not render "Earth view" properly in Firefox, but works fine in other browsers?

    I've been using firefox forever, use it with google maps, mostly with earth view and suddenly, it shows a diagonal mirror image of the map from the bottom right corner to the top left. Google maps in Chrome works fine and maps in Google Earth also work fine.

    We are aware of this issue and will be releasing a Firefox 37.0.2 to correct this within a day or so :)

  • From Google Maps user point of view

    Hi,
    I come from Android and Google 's services.
    I'm really impressed by Windows Phone 8 (and really happy too for my migration).
    I have bought a Nokia Lumia 620.
    One of more important services in Nokia is Nokia HERE Maps, for sure. Because it can replace a central Google service as Google Maps.
    By the way some things are missing and I wonder if they are going to be in Nokia Maps or I will never be a 100% satisfied user and will have to deal with it.
    My suggestions are:
    1. A lot of POI are missing from maps. In the future can a single user add or correct POI simply from his smartphone?
    Communities work well usually. It could be also that every place has a number for its actions, so you can trust for a POI with an higher number of interactions despite of a POI with only one random action.
    2. Can I save POI to create a personal map and then view it as a layer on the main map?
    For example "restaurants in Milan".
    3. Nokia Maps still lack of calendar and contacts integration but, probably, it's more on Microsoft.
    Thanks!

    And a "save to contacts" function too.

  • Content viewer crashes after loading google map

    Greetings! I am making progress, finally on my first Edge Animate CC 2014 / InDesign CC 2014 DPS edition.
    I have finally gotten to the pplace where I need to display a Google Map for two different locations, each map will be loaded with a different button on click and replace the previous map. It works fine in the browser, but when I upload my folio through InDesign and load it into the Adobe Content Viewer on an iPad (Air) after clicking the MAP button (either one), the map loads and appears to be fine, then after about 10 seconds, the Viewer crashes. I have tried it repeatedly and by clicking both map buttons, the produce the same results.
    What should upload for someone to look at, or has anyone else ran into this issue?
    Below is the code for the Action(s):
    downtownMapButton:
    // insert code for mouse click here
    var mapFrame = sym.$("mapContainer");
    var map ='<iframe width="'+mapFrame.width()+'" height="'+mapFrame.height()+'" frameborder="0" scrolling="no" marginheight="0" marginwidth="0" src="https://mapsengine.google.com/map/embed?mid=zE2zuZhUFeMU.kVkOwZos-Fiw" ></iframe>';
    mapFrame.html(map);
    // Show an element
    sym.$("mapBox").show();
    // Show an element
    sym.$("downtownPointerSym").show();
    // Show an element
    sym.$("mapContainer").show();
    sym.$("closeButtonSym").show();
    sym.$("prestonPointerSym").hide();

    Found a solution.
