Why is the maps app on my ipad not working properly ?

It opens OK but can't find my location once and a while.
Then getting directions between to points doesn't work.
Any idea's ?
ipad 1
version 4.3.3
(Also its getting slower and the battery life goes down.)

    We want you to always have working apps linton37. I'm sorry you're having issues. Have you tried to remove the apps and redownload them back to your phone? They may need updating so they can work with your phone. I would also try accessing them on the data network to ensure its not your home wifi blocking those apps.

  • HT5429 Why has the maps app gone so sour in IOS6 can I revert to IOS5?

    Why has the maps app gone so sour in IOS6.The images at any reasonable magnification are colourless and so fuzzy as to be useless.I loved my old Google based system which even allowed me to look into my house window from the street view function.I wish I had never accepted the invitation to upgrade to IOS6 I would like to go back tithe old system

    Google and Apple have apparently parted ways in the 'bundled apps' area.
    If you don't like the bundled map app, then your option is to look for a replacement in the app store.

  • Since upgrading to iOS 8.3 the maps apps on my ipad do not show current location from my gps

    Since upgrading to iOS 8.3 the maps apps on my ipad do not show current location from my gps DUALXGPS150A
    The data is still being received by the ipad but not appearing on any of the maps.
    Everything was working fine before the upgrade.

    Hi davidisleta,
    If you are having issues with your iPad not showing location information, you may want to try some things to troubleshoot.
    First, quit all running applications and test again -
    Force an app to close in iOS
    Next, I would try restarting and if needed resetting the iPhone -
    Restart or reset your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch
    If the issue is still present, you may want to restore the iPhone as a new device -

    Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.

  • I have lost track of the number of websites that do not work properly on the iPad without Adobe Flash player which is unsupported. I cannot use retail sites, billing sites and most important of all job application sites. All are missing tabs, links, info

    I have lost track of the number of websites which do not work properly on my iPad. They include retail sites, billing sites and most important of all job application sites. They all seem to require Adobe Flash Player which cannot be downloaded onto an iPad. Skyfire does not solve the problem. They all load without vital parts of the site such as tabs, links and correct formatting. Any suggestions?

    Most such brower/service combinations have a difficult time working with Flash-based apps and often fail completely. Flash videos are usually the most successful content these browers can handle. You can try the others apps - Puffin, iSwifter, etc - but you may find that none of them work, in which case you will not be able to use your iPad with these sites other than by using one of the various remote control solutions to take over a computer running the full Flash Player.
    IMHO, any developer that built a Flash application for a billing or job application site was an idiot, but I know that's out of the control of anyone but the relevant company.
    Regards.

  • HT2693 How do you contact Apple by email to report one of their pre-installed iPad Apps (ie Calender) is not working properly?

    How do you contact Apple by email to report one of their pre-installed iPad Apps (ie Calender) is not working properly?
    On trying to open month of March 2013 the pre-installed calendar just shuts down and closes.  Have tried restarting iPad but this didn't help and because its a pre-installed App am unable to re-install it.   Is this a universal problem or just affecting me?  Tried searching for support in both App Store and on Apple site and can't see how to report this.

    You've tried deleting and redownloading them and seeing if they then work and tried contacting the developers ? If you have and they can't/won't help then try the 'report a problem' page to contact iTunes Support : http://reportaproblem.apple.com
    If the 'report a problem' link doesn't work then you can try contacting iTunes support via this page : http://www.apple.com/support/itunes/contact/- click on Contact iTunes Store Support on the right-hand side of the page, then Purchases, Billing & Redemption

  • Since I installed the new OS X Lion, the iCal syncing through iTunes is not working properly.

    Since I installed the new OS X Lion, the iCal syncing through iTunes is not working properly.
    When I sync my MacBook Pro with my iPhone and iPad, the events set in both devices (iPhone & iPad) are not transfered to the iCal on my labtop. Events created in both devices are transfered and copied betwen them when I sync them with the iTunes app (through the MacBook Pro) but they are not trasfered/copied into the labtop (iCal). The events created in the iCal (on my MacBook) are tranfered to the devices as two events on same hour. One, with the description created on the iCal, and the other as a New Event (no description). This is happening since I installed the new OS X Lion last week.
    I file a report and talked with an Apple Support Representative, but they could not help me. They have not receive any other reports on this matter. Do someone has confronted this issue. I need to find out how to solve this problem.

    Hi Sydness,
    Thank you very much for your help. It just worked fine. I have 4 macs in my company for 25 years (one is updated each year), and it is the first time I could not solve a problem for weeks. It gave me the opportunity to join this great community.

    I am facing problem in playing yahoo pool in Firefox 4 while it was working fine in Firefox 3.6. In Firefox 4 the combination of mouse keys are not working properly.

    I updated to Firefox 4.01 today and the middle scroll button on my Lenovo T400 stopped working. I downloaded the updated Ultranav utility and the Ultranav driver for my T400 from here http://www-307.ibm.com/pc/support/site.wss/MIGR-72858.html and then uninstalled the "Thinkpad Ultranav Driver" from Add/Remove programs rebooted and then installed the updated utility and driver (another reboot) and it now works perfectly.
    So glad to get this working again.

  • Why does the map app say it takes 8 hours to travel 25 miles?

    The map app says it takes 8 hours and 17 minutes to drive from Naperville, IL, to Midway Airport.  An alternate route only takes 49 minutes.

    If I selected walking, why would a longer alternate route only take 59 minutes.
    I just got directions for the same route and got reasonable results.  Whatever the problem was it appears to have been corrected.
    Thank you all for your comments.

  • Just upgraded to iOS5 on iPad. Music app and mail does not work properly.

    Just upgraded iPad2 to iOS5. Music app does not work properly. When I select a song to play, it plays a different song. Sometimes, it just stops playing songs, other times, it shuffles songs.
    Not sure whats going on.
    Worked fine using iOS4.3.5.
    Synced the iPad to iCloud. enabled mail. It shows under settings that the iCloud mail is setup, but the mail does not appear in the mail app. Not sure whats happening with these functions on iOS5.

    Launch the Console application in any of the following ways:
    ☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
    ☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
    ☞ Open LaunchPad. Click Utilities, then Console in the icon grid.
    Make sure the title of the Console window is All Messages. If it isn't, select All Messages from the SYSTEM LOG QUERIES menu on the left. If you don't see that menu, select
    View ▹ Show Log List
    from the menu bar.
    Click the Clear Display icon in the toolbar. Then try the action that you're having trouble with again. Select any messages that appear in the Console window. Copy them to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination command-C. Paste into a reply to this message (command-V).
    When posting a log extract, be selective. In most cases, a few dozen lines are more than enough.
    Please do not indiscriminately dump thousands of lines from the log into this discussion.

  • Why does my ipad not work properly when charging

    when my ipad is plugged to charger it does not work properly  goes crazy

    Not sure what 'goes crazy' means but it most likely should not do that.  Try a reset... press the home and sleep/lock buttons until you see the Apple logo, ignoring the slider. Takes about 5-15 secs of button holding and you won't lose any data or settings.
    Also try it plugged into another outlet (on another circuit) and/or try another charger.

  • HT4061 I deleted the ABC app because it wasn't working properly.  I went to reinstall it and it says I still have it.  I don't.  What do I do.

    I deleted the abc news app because it wasn't working properly.  I cannot reinstall it because I get the message I already have it...I don't.  What do I do?

    I have this happen on occasion.  What I do (Either wireless sync or cable sync) is look under the apps tab under your device in iTunes.  If the app is checked off, uncheck it, sync, check, and then sync.  If it is not checked then just check and sync.  Hope this helps.

  • Is it still the case that the Muse CC Forms widget will not work properly unless you have Business Catalyst?

    I am looking into options for our next office website redesign.  We will definitely need a forms function.  I downloaded the Muse CC free trial and went through all of the tutorials.  The video on the forms (Contact Form) stated that the forms widget would not work or would not work properly if you do not have Business Catalyst.  I'm hoping that has changed since the video was created.
    Is this still true that you need to purchase the Business Catalyst product for Muse CC form widgets to work correcty??? 

    Piruki have you tried utilizing the Previous version option within the Creative Cloud Desktop application?  You can find additional details under the install Previous version section of CC desktop lists applications as "Up to Date" when not installed - http://helpx.adobe.com/creative-cloud/kb/aam-lists-removed-apps-date.html.
