Nonsense, Apple and their new software is correct and everyone else is wrong. Cannot find your location? It doesnt exist. Taken to the wrong place? Thats the place you should be anyway.

Sounds like really poor testing/planning went in to this. They are so determined to kill Google that they are doing stupid...more stupid...things.

Apple innovation, it just works.

At least when they fix it, I suppose. And the saddest part is, as we've all come to expect and see brought to fruition, Apple will do some magical marketing doublespeak over this and in a month people will suddenly believe it was all part of the plan in the first place.

Just like the magical coating on the black iPhone 5 that now allows for purely individual personalization just by putting it in your pocket and walking a few steps - you get your own custom engraving right into the device itself from your keys, your change, and whatever else you carry!!!

I'd like to say I'm joking but, I'm not.

as long as it lasts for 6 months, then itll be a reason to buy the iphone 6! :p

Some people will truly defend anything Apple does.

I defend anything that ends up being blamed for something that COULD be related to something else. As pertaining to what he said, I mistakenly thought he said his whole city wasn't there, which would be a loading problem of course. (which explains why i said what i said). Sorry about that.

I had hoped the pitiful directions and state of the app were going to be fixed by GM. This wasn't the case.

Google will have a Maps app out soon. In the meantime, I highly recommend Waze if you're looking for free TbT directions.

Apples map app sucks. I am from NYC and this app cant even find Public Transit (Train) details about the world famous John Jay College in the same City.

Can't be that 'world famous'.

I'm looking at the maps themselves, nothing wrong with them.

Luckily they made the maps just for the little bubble you live in then. I guess the rest of us are imagining the issues

unluckily (not a word but it fits) they made the bad maps just for the little bubble you live in then. I guess the rest of us are just lucky. As other have stated in other places, the maps are good in some places and bad in others. Why you so angry in all your posts? because of maps?

I'm not angry at all, there's no point denying the maps are poor. Evidently North America isn't as poor as the rest of the world

Friends/family are complaining already about the new maps in iOS 6. Apple should of took more time to work on their program before ditching Google. Really hope Apple doesnt use the slogan "it just works" anymore since in the past it may have, but not anymore. For a company who has been known for good R&D, this is crap and shouldnt of been released in its current form. I am all for competition and competing products, but I wouldnt call it competing ATM.

I'm looking at the maps themselves, nothing wrong with them.

May be nothing wrong for you but for this to be a hot topic on several sites, then many are not having as good a luck as you are. Otherwise, it wouldnt be reported at all or to much time spent on it...regardless if the topic does concern Apple.

I'm waiting for an untethered jailbreak on iOS 6 for my sweet 4S. I just keep telling others how I've had BannerDisable (DoNotDisturb) for almost a year and that Siri has been opening apps for as long as that. 5.1.1 for me but if the Maps doesn't get changed, I'm not getting the 5S or whatever the next thing is...may as well go Lumia 940 or something my upgrade isn't until May next year :D

    • But building your own.. what? You can't build anything like the Steam Machine yourself. Even trying to get close costs a good deal more. Even just the CPU cooler in their price comparison is as big as the entire Steam Machine. If you want a regular gaming PC, then by all means, build that. If you want a a small console-like PC for the living room that is good for gaming, I'm not sure what else is a better deal. In the GN review, they only mentioned a small form factor Dell, which is like twice the size and hundreds of dollars more expensive.
    • Those are some popular multiplayer games. But hardly "all". Just those that don't work on Linux currently due to specific anti-cheat implementations. I think it's also fair to point out the literally thousands of games that don't work on the PS5. And it's not locked at 1080p. That's the default, which you can change.
    • Ubuntu Livepatch arrives on Arm64 to eliminate system reboots for kernel updates by Paul Hill Canonical has just announced that its Livepatch service now supports computers with Arm64 processors. For those who are not familiar, Livepatch allows users to apply important kernel updates without any service interruption or rebooting. While home users will benefit from this, it’s even more important for critical machines that absolutely should not be going offline at all. The feature is available as part of Ubuntu Core 26 for Arm64 and Ubuntu Core 20 and onwards for AMD64. According to Canonical, this will improve the security of systems that aren’t security-maintained daily or weekly, and it helps organizations work towards Cyber Resilience Act (CRA) compliance. If you are familiar with Ubuntu, you probably know that most packages can be updated without having to restart the system. There is one big exception to this, and that’s the kernel; it typically requires you to reload the system to boot into the new kernel. With Livepatch, Canonical has done something so that you don’t need to restart to begin using the new kernel. Aside from Ubuntu Core 26, users with Arm64 chips running Ubuntu 26.04 LTS can also use Livepatch. If you want to learn more about Livepatch, check out its product page. There, you can also find a button to join Ubuntu Pro (it’s free for several home devices) so that you can enable Livepatch. By linking your computer to Ubuntu Pro, you will also extend the life of your Ubuntu install from five years to ten years. If you are running Ubuntu, let us know in the comments if you have been looking forward to this feature on your ARM-based computer. If you’ve had a compatible AMD64 machine for a while and never used this feature, let us know why in the comments!
