location services and apple maps

I discovered today that location services no longer works with Apple Maps App on my M1 Mac Mini. I click on the triangle at the top of Maps to take me home and it bring up a dialog box saying to turn on Location Services which is already on. Location services works with Find My and it works with Safari when I bring Google Maps. So I then tried this with my wife's MacBook Pro M1 Max and the Maps does not work there either. Is there something I am doing wrong? I guess I need to call Apple.

MacBook Pro 15″, macOS 10.15

Allow apps to detect the location of your Mac - Apple Support


Indicates the location is gathered off your WiFi router and/or ethernet router in the modem, and not a function of the Mac itself. This is a problem for your ISP, or router manufacturer.


It does mean though that if you share cellular data from a cell phone on your Mac, you might be able to gain back location services on the Mac. If that's the case, then you need to isolate it with your ISP or router manufacturer. ISP is the company that provides your internet at home.

Location services works fine with "Find My" app and Google Maps in Safari and other Safari sites as well. Not an ISP issue. Locations serves works just not with Maps. I talked to Apple today and they had me try to log in as another user and that worked so they had me reload the OS which did not work. Other people on line have seen location services issues as well. Not just me. It is an issue with Venture 13.5 update as this worked before the update.

The fact it isn't working on one user may indicate some user preferences are being deleted by a system cleaner. If you use any Zeobit, MacPaw, Advanced Mac Ceaner, MacKeeper, software, remove it. It will actually damage the system inside files.

定位服务与Safari浏览器和其他Safari网站上的“查找我的”应用程序和谷歌地图配合使用也正常。不是ISP问题。位置服务只是不适用于地图。我今天和苹果谈过,他们让我尝试以另一个用户身份登录,这起作用了,所以他们让我重新加载操作系统不起作用。其他在线的人也看到了定位服务问题。不仅仅是我。这是Venture 13.5更新的问题,因为这在更新之前就起作用了。

指示位置从调制解调器中的WiFi路由器和/或以太网路由器上收集,而不是Mac本身的功能。这对您的ISP或路由器制造商来说是个问题。


但这确实意味着,如果您在Mac上共享手机上的蜂窝数据,您可能会在Mac上获得定位服务。如果是这样的话,那么您需要将其与您的ISP或路由器制造商隔离。ISP是在家里为您提供互联网的公司。
