Where's the "Clear" button in Maps after upgrading to iOS 5?

Subject pretty much sums it up.  After upgrading to iOS 5 I found that they seem to have removed the Clear button from the Directions feature.  How can I clear a route in the updated version of the app? Thanks.

iPhone 5
Just wanted to add instructions on how to clear the recent routes history.
1  Open maps app. to view the actual map screen (not the route screen that shows the routing history).
2  Touch the little book icon in the upper right corner. Then you should see tabs at the bottom of the screen labeled "Bookmarks, Recents, Contacts".                                                          
3  Touch the "Recents" tab. Then you should see a list of the past routes you have looked up.
4  Touch the "Clear" tab in the upper left corner. Then you should see 2 options to either "Clear All Recents" or "Cancel".
5  Touch the "Clear All Recents" tab (shown in red). Then you should see the screen wiped clear.
6  Touch the "Done" tab in the upper right corner.
If you still see the very last route on your map: Then touch the "X" on the upper part of the screen, on the left side of the little book icon, located within the Search bar. Then you should only see the blue dot, representing your current location.
I hope this helps.

  • Issues with getting the slide button to work after upgrade to iOS 7.02 and 7.03

    Ever since upgrading to iOS 7.02 and 7.03 having issues with getting the slide button to work to open up iPad 2.  Happened last week and was able to restore it to new and get it to work again and it worked great until one week later (this morning) doing the same thing.  Have tried restoring iPad to new 3 times (via itunes) and still unable to get the slide button to move so can use the iPad.  IPad able to charge, able to restore, able to sync with itunes even able to recover but not able to get past first screen where you have to slide to access iPad.  Any help would be greatly appeciated.  Live about 300 miles from nearest Apple store.

    I am beginning to wonder whether there isn't some weird problem with that Home button.
    Try this: Settings > General > Accessibility > AssistiveTouch = On
    This will place a button on the iPad's screen.
    You can move this button anywhere on the screen.
    This button gives you - amongst many other things - a soft Home button.
    To turn your iPad on, you can use the Sleep/wake button or move a small magnet across the bezel of the iPad where the volume controls are.
    If you use the magnet, then: Settings > General > Lock / Unlock = On
    Now should not need to press the Home button anymore.
    If this method allows you to use your iPad without a hitch, then suspect hardware problems with the Home button.

  • Is anyone having trouble with the "home" button not responding after upgrading to 5.1.1 OS?

    Is anyone having problems with the "home" button not responding after upgrading to 5.1.1?

    You will not belive how I accidently solved this - !!!
    Yes I had the problem immediately after the 5.1.1 'cloud' upgrade, the problems started (on my iphone 4) ... I followed the 'get power down button, then hold HOME for 30 secs' solution, but no result, nothing seemed to work and I was starting to get a bit agressive with the keep it pushed, multiple double click frustrations, icopybot multigesture solutions etc. and paid money ... but this comedy solution now works ...
    I discovered it because I ordered a waterproof case for my iphone for my motorcycle ... I've just fitted it to my iphone and all the problems have gone ??? what! ... so wondering why I looked at what the home button on the casing was doing - it was pressing ACROSS the home button i.e. it converted my finger point into a wider 'PRESS
    so taking the new case off, instead of using the point of my thumb to press HOME, I used the flat of my thumb to emulate it ....and initially nothing, so I wondered if it wa making better 'cross button' contacts, so I licked my thumb, wiped it and then tried again! - it worked!
    I can't explain it but it seems to work - try it! if the double click on HOME doesn't work lick your thumb dry it and try again! I've just done it again
    what a mad techno world we live in! :-)

  • IPhone Home Button not working after upgrade to ios 5.1.1

    Hey everyone,
    I'm pretty sure this is a software failure due to the symtoms the iPhone is showing;
    0 - the home button does not work at all when the phone is turned on and running ios 5.1.1, well it used to work okay when i had ios 5.0.1, I upgraded to 5.1.0 and started working randomly, upgraded to 5.1.1 to see if it was fixed with no luck at all.
    1 - When locked the screen does sometime light up, like when you press the home button and don't slide the unlock button. but it does not exit apps anytime, I mean it doesn't act like it's pressing the home button randomly but only when the phone is locked.
    2- The button does work perfectly when iOS is not running: I can get in and get out of recovery and dfu mode at will, that wouldn't be possible if the button were broke.
    3- what else? Oh yea, not really a symtom: Tried the 'home button calibration' several times.
    4 - It's not filthy, since I really cleaned it thoroughly with a powerful tiny nozed air blower I got and gave a rubbing alcohol treatment too.
    5 - when I shut the phone down it instantly turns back on, I can interrupt the turning on for turning the phone into dfu mode (i'm sure It's in DFU mode because the tinyumbrella log monitor tells me)
    I'm now using the 'soft' home button that goes in the accesibility options, but hey, I didn't pay a ton of money for a phone that the same Apple is gonna break down.
    It's out of warranty and I don't have apple stores where I live.
    I'd downgrade to 5.0.1 in a snap if I could but I'm not into jailbreaking, so the shsh blob thingie is not a possibility.
    Any apple dev around that can give me a workaround?
    thanks a lot in advance
    Added more info ~ 

    I had the same problem with Home button not responding after upgrading from iOS 5.1 to iOS 5.1.1 on an iPhone4.   I solved it but not sure exactly what fixed it.   Here is what I did.
    1.  Took it local Apple store Genius appointment.   They used a special tool and took some lint out of the connector opening.   The Home button started working.   They said even though the phone was out of warranty, I could buy a new replacement one without a contract for $150. 
    2.   The Home button stopped working when I got home.   I got some compressed air in a can and blew the air through the connector to try and clean out more dust.   I now keep the phone with the connector opening facing down in my pocket.   I also struck the phone downward on my hand or other soft surface to force as much dust out as possible.
    3.  The Home button still was intermittent.  I then tried to do a hard reset by holding the power on key and the Home button simultaneously for about 10 seconds.  This doesn't work if the Home button doesn't respond.
    4.  I connected the iphone to Itunes via the USB to sync the phone.  While connected, I did a Hard Reset by Holding the Power button and Home button simultaneously.  I noticed the Home button responded better when connected to ITUNES via the USB.
    5.  I did a backup of the iphone4 by highlighting the iphone 4 while connected to ITunes and right mouse click and selecting BACKUP.    I was prepared to reset my phone4 in iTUNES and restore it from the backup.
    The phone worked consistently before I had to do this.
    6.  As a last resort which I didn't need to do, I was going to copy all my settings for the iphone by selecting the phone in iTUNES and looking at all the sync settings.   I would then have restored the iphone to original factory settings and then sync the phone using the copied settings.  This would have made sure that the backup didn't include the bug.
    Fortunately, I didn't have to do step 5 and 6.   Things started working after Step 4.  So I don't really know if it was the iOS 5.1.1 upgrade or pure coincidence that the Home button stopped working immediately after the upgrade.

  • Where's the 3g button for ipad 2 running on ios 5.1

    after upgrading my ipad 2 from ios 4.3.3 to 5.1 cant find the 3g button to turn... where is it?

    Afaik, it doesn't display "3G", it shows the name of your carrier (AT&T in my case). I'd guess that's what the "O" is representing.

  • Why my sound button isnt working after upgrade to ios 6.1.3??

    I recently upgrade my ios. And found out after that there's a sound bug. My ihone sound isnt working at all... Can anyone help...?

    iOS 6.1.3 has so many different bugs. I updated my iPhone 4S to this version and now my phone doesn't charge anymore. I and Apple Support technician believed that it's a software problem but they couldn't fix it at all and now I have to wait until the next update of iOS. So don't bother yourself just wait for the next update. Also, contact Apple Support Centre and open a case to report your problem because if it doesn't a common problem maybe they will not hear about it and your problem occurred in the next update again.

  • My iPad Sleep/Wake button not working after upgrading to IOS 4.2.1

    Since I uploading the OS system onto my iPad 3G, the Sleep/Wake button is inoperate. When I click this button, my iPad will not turn on (I press the Home button to activate my iPad). When my iPad is on and I press the Sleep/Wake button nothing happens.
    I restored my iPad on iTunes which did not solve the issue. I have search this forum for any solutions and I have reviewed the iPad User to see if I miss something when I activated the update OS on my iPad.
    Any other iPad users experiencing this issu? All recommendations is greatly appreciated.

    Sorry, but I can't tell from your writeup how it is that you're actually using those controls. Some basic points:
    A. Merely pressing the Sleep/Wake (SW) button doesn't turn the machine on if it's off. Instead, you press & hold it until the white Apple logo appears.
    B. If you press Home and the machine comes to life, then it was not off, powered down. It was sleeping, or idle.
    C. When on, pressing/clicking SW should put the iPad to sleep.
    If you can't put it to sleep by pressing SW, and can't shut it down by pressing & holding SW until the red slider appears, then you have some sort of a fault involving that switch itself and you're probably looking at a hardware replacement. Follow instructions in your User's Guide to start that process.

  • Is there a way to keep the apps on my Ipod after upgrading to IOS 5?

    I plugged my Ipod touch (4th generation) into my mac and itunes prompted me to upgrade to IOS 5 (which I would like to do).  However, it says that I'll lose all my apps...
    Is there are way to restore these apps after the IOS 5 has been downloaded/installed?  I don't want to go ahead with this process if I have to buy all the apps (with all the information I've stored in them) again!
    thanks in advance for the help!

    - Transfer the app to the computer by:
    iTunes Store: Transferring purchases from your iPhone, iPad, or iPod to a computer
    - Connect the iPod to the computer and make a backup by right-clicking on the iPod under Devices in iTunes and selecting Back Up.
    - Restore the iPod from that backup. That should also update the iPod.

  • Notes in the Notes app are missing after upgrade to iOS 8

    I upgraded my iPhone 5s to iOS 8.  After the upgrade, all of the notes stored in the Notes app are missing.  The notes were not associated with an email address, as I believe they were stored on the "On my iPhone" account.  I also tried restoring the phone from a backup prior to the upgrade, but that did not restore the notes.  To be clear, the notes app is there, but the notes inside it are missing.  Solutions?

    ical is a native app and cannot be deleted
    spotlight can now be found by swiping down anywhere on the screen below the first row of icons.
    you can also go to settings/general/reset/reset home screen

  • Can't install Google Maps after upgrading to iOS 8

    I try to install Google Maps into my iPhone 4S.  The Google Maps icon shows it is loading on an iPhone page.  When the installation finishes, the Google Maps icon disappears and I am unable to use Google Maps.  Google Maps remains in the list of apps with the button showing Remove, so iTunes appears to think that Google Maps is installed.  I click Remove and click Sync and the button shows Install.  How can I fix this loading failure?

  • Why has my music controls in the locked screen stopped working after upgrading to ios. 7.0.2?

    I cannot pause, advance track, etc with the in-control feature on ios 7. When my phone is locked and the music is playing, (ie. iTunes, podcasts or any other audio enabled app) the play controls do not work even when I access the in-control feature.  I remember this working after I updated. Now it's not. Anyone else had this issues or know a fix?

    I have the same issue. with iphone5 with iOS 7.0.2

  • TS1559 My wife's iPhone 4s worked fine. She syncd last week and then it couldn't find any wi-fi networks. Tried all the steps above except that after upgrading to ios 6, the wi-fi is toggled off and is greyed out, unable to turn on. NOT AN AT&T ISSUE

    Nothing posted on any of the threads has worked. I am reluctant to revert back to 5.1.1 which some say worked for them. Posting this solely so Apple will know there is one more continuing to have this issue and it is a major inconvenience.

    I have been having the same issue for the last two weeks. No real indication as to why it ever began other than I had turned off my router and Airport Extreme Base Station off for a weekend while I was away from my place.
    iPad, iPhone, iPod Touch, all have no issues at all with my Airport Extreme Base Station. Can stay connected throughout my living room, bathroom, bedroom, no issues whatsoever.
    My 5 month old MacBook Pro 2.66 GHz Core i7 Airport is sometimes perfect, able to connect, DHCP, and browse without issue. Then, for no reason, I won't be able to join my wireless network, or when I can join, I can't pick up an IP address. And then it will connect, pick up and IP, and then it won't browse. No real rhyme or reason to when this will happen, or when it works.
    I thought that it was an issue with my MacBook Pro, but then my sister visited with her brand new MacBook Pro 2.26 Intel Core 2 Duo, and while a month ago she was able to connect, DHCP, and browse without issue, this weekend she had all of the same issues I was having.
    My XBOX 360 and MacBook Pro have absolutely no issues with the wired connection. Only my WAN seems to have this issue.
    Did you ever find anything more to this?
