TS1700 How to save a destination on Google Maps

...for future use??

OK deggie and thank you again.
I was there before. It looks like you can save the address of a restaurant, store movie house or some kind of business, already in the Google database...but you CANNOT save Aunt Millie's address - see above - like I used to do with my 5 yr old GPS :-(
Too bad, Google! I hope, since Apple Maps hogs the "Contacts", Google Maps will come up with a way to save addresses, beyond businesses.
For example, you plan a visit to San Diego and you plan to visit 3-4 friends while there. You can save their addresses before hand and make your life easier...or use Apple Maps with your Contacts and simplify your life!
Thank you again!

  • How to get digital signature for Google Map geocoding V3 in PL/SQL?

    Hi, Gurus:
        Could anyone provide me an example about how to generate digital signature for Google Maps service v3 in PL/SQL? We tried to upgrade our program using Google maps service from v2 to v3. We are using PL/SQl on background to send request to Google for geocoding. We found some sample code to register with digital signature, but none of them is based on PL/SQl. Notice I used Google business client ID "gme-XXX" and wallet.
    https://developers.google.com/maps/documentation/business/webservices/auth#digital_signatures
    Google Maps API - more URL signing samples
    Here is my code for V2. I notice in order to get signature, I need to use HMAC-SHA1 algorithm.
    procedure Get_Geocoding(P_s_Address in varchar2, P_s_Geocoding out varchar2, P_n_accuracy out number, P_b_success out boolean) is
      l_address varchar2(4000);
      l_url varchar2(32000);
      l_response varchar2(3200);
      n_first_comma number;
      n_second_comma number;
      n_level_length number;
    BEGIN
      /* TODO implementation required */
      l_address:=APEX_UTIL.URL_ENCODE(P_s_Address);
      l_address := replace(l_address,' ','+');
      l_url := 'http://maps.google.com/maps/geo?q='||l_address||'&'||'output=csv'||'&'||'client=gme-XXX';
    l_response := utl_http.request(l_url, APEX_APPLICATION.G_PROXY_SERVER, '/u02/app/oracle/admin/apexsb/wallet', 'XXXXXXXX');
      n_level_length:=0;
      n_first_comma:=instr(l_response,',',1,1);
      n_second_comma:=instr(l_response,',',1,2);
      n_level_length:=n_second_comma-n_first_comma-1;
      P_n_accuracy:=0;
      if n_level_length>0 then
      P_n_accuracy:=to_number(substr(l_response,n_first_comma+1, n_level_length));
      end if;
      l_response:=substr(l_response,instr(l_response,',',1,2)+1);
      --dbms_output.put_line('In function: l_response ='||l_response);

  • How to delete destinations in Google Map app

    New to Ellipsis7.  My Google Map app has destinations in it that I'd like to delete as they were only one time usage.  Can't find instructions on how to delete.  Help!

        Hi sunshineOH!
    I hope you're enjoying your tablet! Here's how to delete your history:
      • Open the  Google Maps app and sign in.
      • Touch the side menu  > Settings > Maps history.
      • Touch the X next to the entry you want to delete, and then touch Delete.

  • 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
    Message was edited by: this-is-my-alias because I forgot to add the image attachments.

    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.

  • How to show regions markers in Google maps based on longitude and latitude. on-click of region marker i want to display all the country locations based on the region from share point list?

    Hello every one,
    In My requirement i am having  some regions with longitude and latitude in one SharePoint list. in another SharePoint list i am having the country values with longitude and latitude and region as look up field.  I want to display all the region
    markers in Google maps. on click of any region marker i want to zoom in the map to region level and i need to display all the country markers in Google maps under the region. can any body help me on this requirement.
    Thanks in advance,
    Venu.

    Not sure about Google Maps but this is fairly easy to do with Bing Maps. I've used Bing Maps with SharePoint lists fairly regularly. Here are some blog posts:
    http://blogs.bing.com/maps/2013/03/26/connecting-a-sharepoint-list-to-bing-maps/
    http://blogs.bing.com/maps/2013/03/07/geocoding-a-sharepoint-list-item/
    Once you have your sharepoint list connected to Bing Maps you can easily filter the list data based on the selected country if you have a country column in your list. If you want to take things a bit further an create a much cooler user experience you can
    also use the Bing Maps GeoData API to get the country boundaries and show them on the map as polygons. These could be color coded based on some metric, or set up as the clickable area on the map rather than a pushpin. Here is a blog post on how to use the
    GeoData API with the JavaScript Bing Maps control:

  • How do I revert back to google maps?

    Does anyone know how to revert back to google maps, if you have alrady updated the iOS 6 update? I'm already hearing negavtive map locations. Please help
    joe in dallas

    While it is true you can't revert back to the original app, you can install a Google Maps app that uses Google data is is from Google themselves, and works very well. It is the Google web app map. To put it on your screen just like a regular app, open Safari in iOS and navigate to maps.gooogle.com. It should show you how to add this as a web app, but if it doesn't just hit the bookmark icon and select "Add to Home Screen". Viola, you now have an icon on your home screen that brings up Google Maps.

  • How can I go back to google maps instead of apple maps?

    Apple maps are very very very bad. Is it possible to go back to google maps. I come from Spain and maps doesn't work. Always finds what you are not looking for and what you want does not exist in 75% of searches. You find places and apple maps is not able to give a route. Says that no route available and that's all
    The app that comes with the operating system is a disaster.
    Any way to go back to google maps???

    Download the Google Maps app from the App Store.

  • ? How to clear Recent Directions from Google maps

    Does anyone know? I can't and I have like a hundred. I have disabled websearch so that can't be the cause. I also have uninstalled and reinstalled the app...no difference.

    Are you signed in?  If so, try going to Settings > Map History within Google Maps (assuming you're using version 2, which was released yesterday) and editing there.
    You get to Settings by tapping the three horizontal bars in the lower left corner of the Google Maps display.

  • How to Save & Transfer Route/Favorites from Maps ...

    First of all I think that there is a lot confusing with the names of the  things in OVI:
     1) OviSuite is a program to synchronizing some things and download Maps.
     2) Ovi Maps is a program that  runs in the 5230 to do navigation and synchronization of maps
     3) MapsOvi is a site in the Internet, to create and synchronize favorites and Routes.  
    I make a little basic  test with the Maps for OVI Site and my 5230  and after creating some favorites places and routes in the Internet Site, I can not find a button to save and  make the transfer of  routes and favorites from the Map Ovi suite to my phone, using Bluetooth or  USB cable. 
    There is a way to make the transfer directly from my PC to the 5230, using a USB cable or Bluetooth? Or the only way to transfer the favorites and routes created on the Maps Ovi to the phone is the real time synchronization of both, using the  Internet connection on the way of my phone and spending a lot of $$$ to do this? 
    I think that the overall  design of OVI things must be totally remade  
    Solved!
    Go to Solution.

    Thank You for your help. But the problem with my Nokia 5230 is that it does not have WiFi,so I would need to use the 3G connection,  wasting some Megabytes. I do not understand why the OVI software does not have an option to download the favorites and routes created in the Internet Site, directly on my phone using the  USB cable or Bluetooth  connection.   The OviSuite could do this  with the Maps,why not with the wpts and routes?
