Can't view Google maps in Safari
I'm on a mac book pro mid 2015 with the latest Monterey 12.6, after loading the new software update I can no longer use Google Maps, it's a thin horizontal lines.
Does anyone know how to fix this?

In another discussion users are reporting the following works...
Safari->Preferences-Advanced->check “Show Develop menu in menu bar”. Now from the Develop menu select “Experimental Features” and scroll down to “WebGL via Metal” and uncheck it. Now try Google Maps again.
It appears this issue is limited to Intel based Macs running Safari 16.0. I have an M1 Mac Studio and do not experience the issue. Anyway, try this and report back.
I tried following your directions but all items under Experimental Features were greyed out. There was no option to check or uncheck anything?
Please assist, if possible. I've been having this issue for a while and I'm close to switching to Chrome browser because of it.
Thank you.
Unfortunately, this did not work for me. Mac OS 12.6, Safari 16.0 (17614.1.25.9.10, 17614) on a 2019 iMac, (Intel) It works fine in Firefox but Global View is still greyed out in Safari. Any other solutions?
The entire list of "Experimental Features" is grayed out, including WebGL Metal. Any suggestions? Worked fine until the latest security update from Apple.
I have a macbook pro Montery 12.6 / 2.5 GHz Intel quad-core i7 (2015).
Now what?
Thanks much ~
Hey geno053.
Jumping back a bit, you mentioned this is happening when viewing this site In Safari. Is that the only site doing it, or are other sites unable to load correctly as well? A great page with a lot of helpful info is If Safari on Mac doesn't open a webpage or isn’t working as expected as it'll take you through some pretty common troubleshooting steps like checking for potentially troublesome extensions to
checking in a private window and removing temporary files that could be causing the issue.
If none of those steps helps, Get Support from Apple directly here.
Take care.
I have the same machine and same problems as you exactly.
Forgot to mention, this proplem happens on Mapquest too.
Same issue with my 2016 MacBook. Google maps not loading correctly. Also affects maps in Underground. Just started in early Sept 2022
Yup, that does seem to have fixed it for me.
Thank you lkrupp. Much appreciated. Now I can update my other 2015 MBP and not lose my maps.
THAT WORKED!!!! Thanks mate.
That works!
Thanks very much!
Brilliant - thanks for figuring it out and sharing with the rest of us. Much appreciated. Worked for me.
lkrupp, that fixed it for me too. Using a 2015 MBP 15". Thank you!
Thank you
That worked for me as well, no more frustration !!
Thank you, as this resolved for me as well. If anyone could flag this for Apple, that would be very helpful.
the options for "Experimental Issues" are not available in my computer MacBook Pro (Retina, 15-inch, Mid 2015)
