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!

  • A browser issue with Google Maps Street View

    My apologies in advance if this is not right forum for my question, but I have a lot of respect and admiration for many of the posters in this forum.
    I use Safari, Firefox, and Opera 10 from my regular account to view Google Maps. I then select Street View by clicking on the thumbnail pic. The street view goes all dark.
    I log in to my guest account and it works fine from all three browsers. So, my conclusion is that there is something hosed in my account that affects all three browsers. What is it and how do I fix it?
    I am running Snow Leopard.
    Thanks.

    If you remove the Arial fonts from /User/Library/Fonts and get into Google Maps Street View, it works.
    Then, if you put the fonts back where they were, it still works.
    Go figure.
    Thanks to BillMacP that figured it out in the Using Snow Leopard forum.

  • 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.

  • 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.
    It seems to be an issue in Linux Mint as well: http://forums.linuxmint.com/viewtopic.php?f=47&t=180542
    It seems to be quite common on the google map forums: https://productforums.google.com/forum/#!topic/maps/rWUCllpDDSE
    There seems to be bug open already: https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=697443

  • HT5622 why does Find My iPhone via iCloud on my iMac use Google maps and not Apple maps?

    when I use Find My iPhone through iCloud on my iMac, the app uses Google maps to display locations. Why? Shouldn't it use Apple maps?

    thanks
    I used Apple maps on my iPhone, iPad and iMac and prefer it over Google maps except for street view (which albeit has an annoying, difficult to use interface). In El Salvador, Apple maps was certainly more accurate than Google maps. I like Apple maps turn-by-turn navigation via my Sonata's sound system, quite nice

  • Is there a way to roll back ios6? I upgraded before I knew about the new mapping. I used google maps all the time and absolutely hate the new one. Just about everything I've looked for is wrong or missing.

    I hate the mapping in IOS6. Is there a way to roll back to the older OS? When I upgraded I didn't know about the mapping change. I used google maps a lot, for a variety of things. In just a few searches I've found more errors or missing landmarks than anything else. I really hate this app!

    I agree. How can I roll back to the previous OS? Developers, please post a procedure for reverting.

  • I have a problem when using Google Maps, at some point my computer blanks the window and says there's a problem with display drivers, and it has recovered,but it doesn't. Problem doesn't happen with Int Explorrer, so I do not believe it is the computer

    When using google maps through Firefox, after asking for a place which is not the general North America section which routinely comes up, the firefox screen goes white, with a narrow banner at the top. A message appears in the lower right corner which says something about display drivers having had a problem, but now have recovered. However the display doesn't recover and the banner message is that Firefox is not responding. When I go to restart Firefox if I go to the restore point, the page is still frozen out.
    I do not believe it is a problem with my computer because it doesn't happen if I use I.E. to go to google maps, then G-maps works normally.
    This phenomenon did not happen before the latest upgrade to either Google or Firefox. I have used Fiefox for a number of years and also Google Maps on previous computers and on this one, and not had this before.
    This is a relatively young computer (Asus EeSlate 121) less than a year old. I have used Firefox since I bought it and until recently had no problem with Google Maps.

    I solved it myself, after the "note" which came back from FF/Mozilla just as I finished my message, commenting on what it was that my system had , I wnnt back to check my plug-ins etc. I downloaded the latest Java, BOTH 32bit AND 64 bit versions and latest Firefox.
    Now all is working.
    Thanks,

    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.

  • How to use Google Maps with dvt:map ?

    Native support of Google Maps and Bing Maps API. You can now display
    Google and Bing maps natively in your Oracle Maps (JavaScript)
    applications. Please check out the online Oracle Maps JSDoc API on
    how to use the new classes.Unfortunatly it looks like it's not possible with dvt:map
    http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/E15523_01/apirefs.1111/e12418/tagdoc/dvt_map.html
    It's an important requirement for our project and probably for many ADF customers.
    I would like to know if :
    Is there any way to use Google Maps with dvt:map ?
    Otherwise, is there any plan to support it ? Should we expect it within a year ?
    Else, I think we will use directly the Javascript Oracle Maps API but we will miss the built-in functionnalities of dvt:map

  • Using google map polygon without map

    Hallo
    i use a polygon ( com.google.maps.overlays.Polygon) in a value object (fieldData) besides other data, later in the programm the polygons are displayed in a google map.
    new FieldData(".....","1",new Polygon([
                        new LatLng(49.70624852,8.17595987),
                        new LatLng(49.70634712,8.17589098),
                        new LatLng(49.7063722,8.17708855),
                        new LatLng(49.70627548,8.17720608),
                        new LatLng(49.70624852,8.17595987)]
    i instantiate the value objects on programm start and i get this error:
    TypeError: Error #1009: Cannot access a property or method of a null object reference.
         at com.google.maps.overlays::Polygon()
    It seems like i get this error because there isnt a google map object existing at that time on programm start. so i changed my code to call this methode on programm start before creating my value_Objects:
    protected function initMap(): void
                        var map:Map = new Map();
                        map.key = "...................";
                        map.enabled=false;
                        map.visible=false;
                        addElement( map );    
    it works! but i dont like the code, i dont need that map object at that time and not in the main component. so i made it invisible.... isnt there a better way to use polygons without having a map-object?

    Thanks I just thought that if Im tagging Geo manually, it would be easier to find in google maps in Safari, then copy and paste it in my places.
    So you can only sort f manually do it be finding places, dragging the pin to where you want?
    Suppose it ok this way, was just hoping I could be super accurate.
