Public transit in uk

can someone tell me if the public transport option works in any UK cities? i have tried it in a few, including london, and i always get the same result - not available. i tried it in new york and it worked fine so its obviously not the phone or the software. this leads me to believe its just not available in the uk, but i have seen it advertised, for example on the uk version of the apple updates site.
if it isnt available yet, have apple announced when it will be?
thanks

Works in London. I just found transit directions fro the Copthorne Tara Hotel to Hertford.
According to Tara's link above, there's not much yet for the UK.
"United Kingdom
East Midlands UK: Traveline East Midlands
London: Transit layer only
Southeast UK: Traveline South East"

  • IOS 6 maps and public transit?

    When will iOS 6 have a public transit option?  Not having one is a pain. 

    I sent this via feedback:  One of the best features of maps WAS public transit info. for when I travel.  It was excellent and very reliable.  Now Apple maps directs you to the App Store to purchase a free or not free separate app for that.  Most have marginal reviews...and some have terrible reviews. 
    Since I began using Apple products in 1988, this is one of the most blatant rugs pulled from under users with no good replacement..  It seems a disgrace to have done this and hardly can be a sign of a forward thinking company.  Your developers increased functionality for the car driver and removed it from the rest...very arrogant and disappointing. Please redeem yourselves.

  • IOS6 map is useless for public transit users

    I LOVED the google map on my iphone and used it daily, the user experience was great w/ detailed directions and a map view for public transit.  Having to use Embark on the new OS is AWFUL and I have to switch back and forth between Embark and the new map.  PLEASE BRING BACK GOOGLE MAP!

    this will certainly rank among Apples stupidest moves.  Maybe the proportion of map users that utilize the public transit feature is not enormous, but those of us that do use this feature use it intensively and derive great utility from it.
    Isn't it ironic that Apple, the company that created one of the most iconic ad campaigns in history (i.e. the one poking fun at lemmings following the masses onto the PC platform), is now dictating use of inferior features just because they have the lemmings locked into their platform?  It's almost as if Apple is no longer interested if customers can or can't use their products to create the most individually valuable user experience possible.
    Wasn't there a time when Apple would not attempt to provide a product or service unless it could provide a superior service?  Or am I thinking of someone else?
    I am now.

  • Public Transit in Maps

    Google Maps will give directions with either public transit or walking in addition to driving. Are there plans to add that to the Maps application as well?
    I could use google in safari but the app is MUCH faster than the web page. Plus the website doesn't have access to GPS.
    Thanks!

    This is a user to user forum. We are iphone users like you.
    Unless there is an announcement, I'm not sure how we would know what Google's and Apple's "plans" are for the future.

  • What transit file format is required for HERE Tran...

    I thought pretty much everyone used the General Transit Feed Specification (GTFS) which is an common format.  My city uses that spec yet it isn't supported on HERE Transit. 

    Do you all not have like an inside sales force or someone that can contact public transit organizations to get their data.  The reality is most public transit companies only know of Google Transit and GTFS.  Therefore, the onus is upon HERE to make themselves available and to get transit orgs to sign up with you.  There are several cities I visit or plan to visit and they all have their data in Google Transit.  Most of them have their GTFS feed published at a web link that anyone, you or I, could download on a regular basis if we so choose.  If you want to get their permission that is fine, but there should be no issue downloading a GTFS feed that anyone can currently access on the web.
    I want to help make HERE Transit better, but that will never happen if the transit org has to do all of the leg work.

  • Map ***** for public transportation! What app can help me get the same results as the map before the ios6 upgrade?!!

    I remember using maps for public transportation before i start driving and it was pretty godd. Telling me when the next bus is departing giving me all the option necerssary to get to where i want to go all in the map app...now when i touch on the public transportation option it just take me to a bunch of apps that i try and try and none of them work as the map...so now i want to know if there is any app that can replace the efficience of maps before      ios6     upgrade...
    Please help

    There are lots of public transit information apps in the App Store. A search for "public transit" or "public transportation" should turn them up. What you might find useful would depend on where you'd be using it. I've used HopStop.

  • HT5429 Maps is no longer giving transit instructions????????

    I am very disappointed to find that I can no longer use my iphone to find public transit instructions using maps.  This was my go-to method of independent travel.  Now that I've moved to a city I just found out that maps no longer will find me busses!  I now have had to do research into apps, and use a combination of two apps as well as the metro system website to figure out a simple trip.  What used to be one step has turned into many steps.
    What was apple thinking with this change?????
    I'm living in Seattle and so far have not found an app that performs all the functions of the old iphone maps.

    This option was included with Google maps info which was the maps data provider with the Maps app prior to iOS 6. Google's contract with Apple expired and was not renewed.
    I believe Google provides a free Maps app for the iPhone that may include this option.

  • Transit directions could not be found

    This the message I have been getting for a few months now. I am not sure what is going on, but when I try to get directions from place to place it is unable to tell me.
    Does anyone else have this problem?
    Thanks,
    -Adam

    At the top of the directions page are three symbols, a car, a bus, and a man walking. Tap the car for most directions. Tap the bus for public transit directions if your city is on the list Tamara linked to. Tap the man for walking directions.
    If you always get "transit directions could not be found" be sure to select the car symbol rather than the bus.

  • Trying to get Chicago Transit Authority "maps" to work on "a" browser/10.3

    Hi all,
    As much has been made of late of the lack of updates to Safari 1.3.2 for Panther to function for Google Maps etc., now I find I can't get Chicago's CTA Bus Tracker maps to work on any of my three browsers using 10.3.9.
    The site is:
    http://ctabustracker.com/bustime/home.jsp
    I have Safari 1.3.2, Firefox 2.0.0.14, and Camino 1.6.1 and none of them seems to be able to load the map feature of the site. I can get the routes section to function and the "text only" page to function but not the maps. I keep getting Java error. I assume that Java for Panther 10.3.9 is just not compatible but I thought I would post and ask if perhaps I am just doing something wrong.
    The site is not very specific as to usage on the Mac platform (surprise surprise) and the best I can come up with is the Java that I have installed is not good enough for running the maps feature. I was hoping that Firefox or Camino at least would work but I suspect it has more to do with Java and not the browser.
    Anyone willing to take a look and let me know if I am missing something or if the Java requirement is the problem and not the browsers I have?
    My bus lines are coming online with the tracker and I was really excited that I could use this site...it would be very useful.
    Thanks in advance, as usual, for any help,

    Kappy,
    I just edited my above reply with a little additional info about my java version that I found in the Profiler. Didn't look like it would support the Maps in any way. As far as I can tell that's fully updated for Panther.
    My daughter and son-in-law live there. She uses the public transit daily when it's running! Apparently not something it does reliably, so I hear
    That's great, I hope they are happy here. I love Chicago. Big city with problems but all 'n all a pretty darn nice place to live. Yes, the public transport here is either excellent or severly lacking sometimes. Still haven't figured out when it's one or the other
    You know, that site is one more reason for getting an iPhone 3G, that I can't afford right now , as I think it would be a fantastic feature to use on the phone.

  • HERE Transit for PVTA

    PVTA is a public transit system in Western Massachusetts. HERE Transit appears to have about half the routes. For destinations I know to be connected by one bus line, it suggests two buses going far out of the way. Elsewhere when two will do, it suggests four buses travelling all over the region to get there in a few hours. And the nearby transit function notices some buses but not others. What needing how this happens and whether coverage of PVTA could improve?

    Something odd here .. It was (and still) not appearing under Nokia Collection for India. But I could download it thru' the QR Code and its working fine too ...
    Othr thing is parts of Australia are shown under coverage.. Refer the attachment showing just one such ...

  • How can you use an I-pod nano with family sharing?

    My daughter (under 13) has an IPod Nano, fairly recent generation. She doesn't really want a Touch because she like the radio feature when on the go with her Nano (long commute on public transit to and from school) but also wants fresh music of her own for when the radio is all talking. Family Sharing sounds perfect. Can she access this? Or should I set up an account and she uses ITunes on her computer to Family Share and then download the songs onto her IPod Nano from there? Or can I just not use Family Sharing unless I buy her a Touch and she loses access to the radio? Thanks!

    An iPod nano can't connect to the Internet on its own; all the music on it needs to have been transferred from a computer.

  • Why can't I print a map from a PDF file?

    I am going to the website   http://www.atac.roma.it/   which is the public transit system for Rome, Italy. If you scroll down and click on the green button for     Linee e Mappe     and then scroll down on the next page and click on the PDF file for the      Line e Elettriche     you will get the map for the electric buses that runs through Rome. You will notice at the top of that page on my computer it says        "doc.pdf(secured) Adobe Reader".     You will also notice that there is no option to print the map. This did not used to be the case as I have printed maps off this site before.
    I do not have any add-on for Adobe reader. I am able to print PDF files. I do it all the time. I just did it now, but when I have those pages open I do have the option to print.
    I don't have any problem viewing the page, either the website or the PDF file of the map. I just can not print it. Because it says "Secured" would the mean that  ATAC.Roma does not want everyone printing their map?
    Thank you,
          TomS

    That is because the document's security settings disallows printing (as well as everything else).

  • I only recently upgraded from iOS5 to iOS6 and now my apps are crashing constantly and my email won't load

    I had put off upgrading my iPhone 4 to the iOS6 and only gave in to it about a week ago when I thought that the trouble I was having with a select few apps was because of my outdated operating system. Now, I'm regretting it terribly and would either like to know how to revert back to iOS5 or fix this irritating as all **** and unproductive system. I had backed up my phone right before upgrading thinking that that way, I could just restore to it if I didn't like iOS6, but now I'm seeing that restoring to that point does not in fact restore firmware.
    Now I have a maps app that won't help me plan through public transit.
    An email app that will not update my inbox or any box even though it falslely says it checked and there was simply nothing new.
    Every other app I have crashes constantly.
    When I turn on the iPod/music function, there's an extended delay before the music will actually start playing.
    The shuffle function is messed up (if I'm playing a tracklist of 38 songs, it will only shuffle a few of them and just keep looping through those few tracks).
    etc etc
    My contract is almost up and I was hoping that all the negative stuff I had heard about iOS6 would have been resolved by now so that I could confidently by the next iPhone, but at this rate, I'll be ditching Apple's phone entirely.

    Basic troubleshooting from the Users Guide is reset, restart, restore (first from backup then as new). Try each of these in order until the issue is resolved.

  • Maps Directions not working after upgrading to iOS 5

    So I upgraded to iOS5 and now two things happened:
    It now uses the Chinese version of Google, instead of the international English that I had before. So now I can only see the Chinese street names in Shanghai, instead of both Chinese and English names before.
    The directions do NOT work now!! I tried emailing directions from the site maps.google.com, and they do show up on iPhone Maps. I can even calculate different type of directions (car, walking, public transit) on iPhone of the emailed directions. It just doesn't work with directions created on the iPhone itself.
    I hope somebody can help me with these two problems.
    Thanks!!

    BACK TO ENGLISH AND CHINESE LIKE BEFORE!!!
    YES APPLE OR/AND GOOGLE FIXED IT.
    now works with and without the VPN.
    THANKS!!!!!!

  • Volume Limit

    I have a 60 GB video Ipod and there seems to be a problem with the volume limit settings. I followed the instuctions for changing volume limit on this site but it changes back to the default setting when I set it to be louder. When I scroll the volume to max, the triangle moves to max but the volume bar does not stay on max after I confirm the setting. Can anyone help me with this?

    That seems to be the way it works on mine. My blue triangle is all the way to the right and I generally only have to set the volume to about 40-50%. I ride noisy public transit and have no problem with the volume.
