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

    • TerraMaster F2-425 Pro review: a low-powered Intel NAS that ships with AI (OpenClaw)

      By Steven P. · Posted

      I agree, especially if it is cloud sourced, like this one is.. but I wouldn't say no to a local AI assistant similar to the Zettlab one which would be really helpful with my large Photos library, but also to perform tasks like installing Docker apps rather than me having to do it via Docker Compose, but I don't think we're quite there yet. Synology Photos is somewhat AI, you can ask it to search for certain people (if you have tagged them and it will attempt to match similar photos to the person) and if you put a search term in for "cars" for example, it will show you all photos with a car.

      I doubt that Google will keep the same price... it may go up from that list published.
    • Sennheiser's audiophile grade HD 600 hits lowest ever price on Amazon Prime Day 2026

      By hellowalkman · Posted

      Sennheiser's audiophile grade HD 600 hits lowest ever price on Amazon Prime Day 2026 by Sayan Sen If you are in the market for high-quality audiophile-grade over-ear headphones then Sennheiser's HD 600 are a great choice for sure, especially today on Prime Day 2026 as the product has hit its lowest ever price (purchase link under the specs table down below). The Sennheiser HD 600 has long been regarded as a reference headphone for listeners seeking a detailed and natural listening experience. It is an open-back design that is built around the idea of acoustic transparency which is essentially said to allow sound waves to move freely for a more spacious and accurate presentation by reducing turbulence and the type of distortion that can result from it. At the heart of the product is Sennheiser’s proprietary driver system featuring a 42 mm driver paired with a lightweight diaphragm and aluminum voice coils. The company says this design helps deliver fast response times and better articulate sound across the audible frequency range. Comfort and durability are also key aspects of the HD 600 as the headphones feature soft velour ear pads designed for extended listening sessions. The HD 600 comes with a detachable 3-meter cable, a 6.3 mm stereo connector, and a 3.5 mm adapter for compatibility with a wide range of audio equipment. The technical specs of the Sennheiser HD 600 are given in the table below: Specification Value Transducer Principle Dynamic, Open-Back Ear Coupling Circumaural (Over-Ear) Frequency Response 12 Hz – 40,500 Hz Sound Pressure Level (SPL) 97 dB (1 V) Impedance 300 Ω Total Harmonic Distortion (THD) < 0.1% (1 kHz, 1 V) Cable Length 3 m (9.8 ft) Connector 3.5 mm Stereo Jack Plug Included Adapter 6.3 mm (1/4") Stereo Jack Adapter Weight 260 g Magnetic Field Strength 1.8 mT Driver Size 42 mm Dynamic Driver Diaphragm Size 38 mm Get it at the link below: Sennheiser HD 600: $237.00 (Sold by Electronics Expo, Shipped by Amazon US) (Was: $449.95) Good to know This Amazon deal is U.S. specific, and not available in other regions unless specified.

    • Creative Sound Blaster AE-X PCIe review: your headphones will love it

      So the card is targeted at headphone users - so the review should be from someone that uses this - maybe I can review a card next time.
