London Underground Stations on Apple iOS 6 Maps

I can't fingure out how to activiate / show the location of London Underground stations on the new Apple maps, can anyone help me ?

The stations are there as small purple icons, though I've had trouble finding some of them through search. Hopefully things will improve before too long.

Use of iOS 6 Maps Images on Websites

I am webmaster for a 501.3(c) "not-for-profit"'s website. The following situation regards iOS 6 "Maps" from Apple, as well as screen shots in general taken on an iPhone (or other iOS device).
We would like to display the iPhone screen shot of a 3D aerial view of our buidling as an image on our public website. The 3D image was generated by iOS 6 Maps and then the screen shot taken with "Home button/Power Button." The image would be viewed by maybe 200 people a month. (But while it's not likely, any site could go viral all of a sudden, right?)
What are the copyright rules for displaying such an image generated by Apple iOS 6 maps? With Google maps, you can apply for a waiver in some cases; in others, Google considers fair use. Unsure? They have a four-step wizard for determining what course of action one should take to properly use such an image.
But what is Apple's policies and procedures for using such images? How do I apply for a license or a waiver of such license? How much would it cost for a not-for-profit, educational use? Any other issues?
Aside from images from Maps, what, if any, are copyright restrictions on other screen shots taken on an iOS device captured with the "Home button/Power Button" combination?
Thank you!

I would not advise it without researching this page very thoughourly, http://www.apple.com/legal/terms/site.html
I can tell you from personal copyright infringement experience. (I had a single pic on my site that I once had permission to use, no longer allowed. Getty images contacted me and sued me for $800)
So tread very lightly and research thoroughly.

HT5429 Has anyone reported a problem on iOS 6 Maps and had it fixed?

Within iOS 6 maps, I reported that searching for Holland Park underground station in London yields two locations for the station (one of them being wrong). It has been over three weeks and the issue has not been corrected.

I have seen several things in my city (Portland, Oregon) corrected. However I would sometimes see them correct on the maps app in my iPad days before the correction showed up on my iPhone — or vice versa.
Not saying that they have fixed it (and I just checked from this side of the world and they haven't...) but once they do it could be awhile before you find out.
I think there is some serious caching issues they need to work out as updates roll out.

FAQ: What font is used by the London Underground (London Transport)

This summer, while on vacation in the UK, I spent a few hours in the London Transport Museum. Surprisingly enough, in their gift shop, two items for sale attracted my attention. One was a book and the other, a collection of fonts!
Every so often, the question comes up on this forum and others as to exactly what font is used in the London Underground. The book in question,
Johnston's Underground Type by Justin Howes definitively answers that question and provides quite a bit of background on the subject.
To summarize, the basis of the font used today is
Johnston Sans, dating back to 1916. Johnston Sans also had an upper case-only bold face. These two faces were used with various modifications until 1988 when the font was modernized with the release of
New Johnston, a family of nine typefaces based upon Johnston Sans. The family includes light, light italic, medium, medium italic, medium condensed, bold, bold italic, bold condensed, and stencil weights / styles. New Johnston Medium most closely resembles the original Johnston Sans face in terms of weight and style.
Neither the original Johnston Sans nor the current New Johnston are licensed by London Transport for any external use.
However, at the London Transport Museum (and I believe on-line from the P22 Type Foundry), you can purchase a license and media for P22's rendition of Johnston Sans including three faces - P22 Underground, P22 Underground Bold (uppercase only), and P22 Underground Extras (symbols associated with London Transport over the years). Included on the CDROM are both Type 1 and TrueType versions of the typefaces in both Windows and Macintosh formats. The designs were officially licensed from London Transport. The EULA (End User License Agreement) carries some
very strict restrictions with regards to embedding in PDF or any other file type as well as commercial use of any printed output formatted with these typefaces.
A fairly close (and less restrictively-licensed alternative) to the P22 package or for Johnston Sans and New Johnston (neither of which are available for license) is ITC Johnston, available in Type 1 and TrueType versions in both Windows and Macintosh formats. Fifteen individual typefaces are available including old style figures and small caps, italic styles, as well as light, medium, and bold weights. Alas, they are not (yet) available in OpenType format.
In any case, further information and background is available in
Johnston's Underground Type by Justin Howes.

I was. I have to say as much as there is a lot of negativity towards Larry Jordan, I really respect him for not shying away from adversity and talking about the issues quite Frankly. I mean, his talk was laced with quite a lot of rhetoric ("it's not the end of the world", etc etc), but he didn't decline to answer any questions (including my own: "what were they thinking").

Having spent the past three days on this forum, I think that list only covers about half of the gripes people have and the problems people are facing!
These are just the things I remember off the top of my head. Sadly I didn't make any notes, in all honesty because I was expecting the whole thing to be a whitewash. Remind me of anything I've left out and I'll try to cover it.
I'll try to transcribe the recording today as it was the only thing that's come close to an official word on the situation from Apple, though I have to say the recording is not particularly good :/

Red/Orange/Green indicators for ios 6 maps?

I just updated to ios 6. Every morning I check my maps app to see how the traffic looks for a couple of routes I can take to work. This morning, with ios 6, there was no information. It seems it only shows when its red. This is completely frusting because I know that both these routes can have slow "orange" patches every morning. Will they be adding red/orange/green indicators to ios 6 maps?!

We are not Apple employees and you may know that already. This is a forum for users with technical questions and problems. You are entitled to your opinions and you are entitled to be disappointed. Let Apple know how you feel.

How to change language in IOS 6 Maps?

Hello, everyone!
I'm from Ukraine, and I have a problem with maps. The problem is:
The IOS 6 maps displays street's names in Ukrainian language, so there is no way to set Russian adress for search.
Also the Setteing "Always in Russian" in Maps settings -> inscriptions on map doesn't work (((

I have the same problem. I upgrade to iOS on my iPhone and iPad yesterday. I'm American living in Germany. Both devices came up with the Germany iTunes/App Store after the upgrade. Now I must ask, why would the device destroy my country connection just because it upgraded the iOS. Never happened from iOS 4 to iOS 5. Strange. But I verified Settings...iTunes & App Stores, clicked on my Apple ID: [email protected], clicked View Apple ID, entered password, and sure enough, still says United States. Therefore, powered off the device, rebooted, and the store was correct (United States), where it should have been without all these steps.

HT5429 when u will fix IOS 6 Maps?

maps is not working in india.. its not showing me directions between any two places.. but maps of IOS 5.1.1 it works correctly.. and know in google maps its also working correctly so why not in IOS 6 maps..??? what are u doing guyz..?? just for giving new features.. u just messed up everthing..

If you want to tell this to Apple, then do so. There is nobody from Apple on these forums, which are user to user, and not monitored by Apple.
Directions do not work in India because the function is not yet available in India. It is not a secret - see here.

Ios 7 maps, direction sign on the indicator disappears

On maps, when I tap on the button which makes the indicator show the direction I am facing, the screen automatically spins to make the direction point the top of the screen. Everything is normal so far, but unlike older ios versions, on ios 7, when I tap the little compass button on top right of the screen to make the map spin back to normal where it shows north at the top and the south at the bottom, the direction sign which shows where I am facing disappears. So ios 7 maps application doesn't let me view my direction on the regular display of the map.

Lumia 920 cannot connect to London Underground Vir...

Hi there,
I have never been able to connect to Virgin WiFi in London Underground since I have had my Nokia Lumia 920 since December 2012 (it says "connecting..." for a while, then says that it could reach the network, altough the signal is strong). I used to be able to connect to that network without any problem on Windows Phone 7, using a Samsung Omnia 7 or a Nokia Lumia 800. This has been tested at different stations where Virgin WiFi is available.
OS version: 8.0.10211.204
Firmware revision number: 1232.5951.1249.1018
Note: I'm a an EE customer and I am register for free Virgin WiFi on London Underground. I do not think it's an operator related problem since I cannot even connect to the WiFi network.
Note 2: I have no problem connecting to my home or work wifi.

UPDATE: The mod's edited my post and unfortunately removed some of the explanation of why my connection to the tube wifi has been restored. I didn't mean to cause trouble, mods - sorry! Am I allowed to confirm that manually flashing the most recent 920 UK EE firmware has instantly restored my tube WiFi?
Hi,
Just thought I'd update, if anyone's interested.
Manually flashing the most recent 920 UK EE firmware has restored my tube WIFI connection - the phone connected instantly this morning when I selected Virgin Media. I do, however, seem to have lost the updated 'Storage Checker' option in the Settings menu that appeared with the original OTA update. Still, you win some, you lose some. I use the tube WIFI far more often so I'd rather have that.
It seems that, at least with my phone, every OTA firmware update renders me unable to connect to the tube WIFI. Manually flashing either the same firmware or a different version restores it, but comes with the tedious hassle of losing some settings.
I'll just have to see what happens with the PR2.0 update that's apparently coming in July...

IOS 6 Map Direction Not Working

Hi this is Karthikeyan from India, I am using apple iphone 3GS, I have updated os from ios5 to ios6, the problem is io6 map is not working like previous version ios5... The main problems is in ios6 map Route Directions completely not working... anyone help to resolve this..??

First, I would suggest looking at: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5429.
In ios 6, apple removed google maps as the default and provided their own mapping service. Maps is not available in all areas and there are ways to report problems inside the application.

Can i revert back to the ios 5 maps on my pad. Im not quite satisfied with the maps being used on the ios 6 especially the street/ regular map

Can i revert back to the ios 5 maps on my pad. Im not quite satisfied with the maps being used on the ios 6 especially the street/ regular map. It looks good but some details like gas station, restaurants, sidestreets which are good references when travelling are not there anymore.

Load this map and save it on your Home Screen

Adobe Creative Cloud does not support Bootcamp by Apple IOS operating system, but does work with boot camp Win 8.1 why"

Adobe Creative Cloud does not support APPLE latest IOS operating system, but does allow Windows 8.1 to be accepted. This seems a shame to me, as
Apple IOS is the leader in graphics, photography. The advertising states it is usable under both APPLE IOS and Microsoft 8.1 windows operating systems. Adobe Support Chat Sooraj tells me on 02/19/2015 that i must buy two computers to have it operate on both operating systems. Adobe will not support apple's Boot CAMP allowing both operating systems.
i love the apple product and love the ADOBE Photoshop CC, but it simply does now work with an apple keyboard and a WiN operating system. .[email protected] Adobe Creative Cloud

In Thehatters defence, this was initially posted in the MacbookPro forum and then moved to Boot Camp,
If you have any joy solving your trackpad device driver issue, feel free to post here (there might be a similar fix for my wireless adapter device)

Using Apple IOS Numbers on my iPod Touch 4th gen, where would I find... ummm... let's say b200?

Using Apple IOS Numbers on my iPod Touch 4th gen,
where would I find... ummm... let's say b200??
I use the row numbers and column alphabet all the time, and yet they don't appear on the IOS5 version of Numbers.
This is kinda short-sighted, isn't it? On the desktop version they show up just by clicking on a cell.

Yeah, we in the real world call it stupid design.
I discovered a real stupid, stupid, stupid way of seeing the header columns and the row numbers. You need to select a cell, and double tap it and the keypad pops up, at the top of the keypad window is a black wide tool button-bar with "42", "a clock symbol ", a "T" and an "=" The "42" stands for numbers, stars dollar signs, ±, etc. The "Clock symbol" is to put in days, hours, minutes... that sort of thing. The "T" is for words. AND the "=" is for formulas and stuff. HOWever, when you selct the "=" the column header (ABC...etc) and the Row numerators appear! Done so you CAN select certain column and rows to include those certain cells for calculations.
What a crappy design, right? Must be an engineer without any human interface design skills whatsoever who designed THIS Numbers for ios GUI... you have to hunt through crap to find the simplest of spreadsheet information. A real human interface designer would have made it easy option (for aesthetic reasons or "save space" Hah. Save space on a spreadsheet... why do you think they call them SPREADsheets anyway?).
And while we are on the Stupid, Engineer-Minded GUI, whose idea was to make you shake your ios device to "UNDO"? There is plenty of space where the title "Spreedsheets" and 3 toolbar buttons are located at the top of the spreadsheet workspace for a simple ø <--(circle with a line symbol)
This Numbers for IOS needs a big retooling.
