Street maps gone from my Apple Maps?! A week or so ago, I opened Apple Maps on my desktop (Mac Studio running current Monterey) and there are so streets, only a blank grid. When I search out a location, the info bubble appears and points to nothing. The satellite view shows the aerial imagery but with no street names and minimal labeling. Is there anyway of fixing this that is easier than an OS re-install?? Thanks!

Apple Maps satellite images at least 5 years out if date I live in Austin Texas, one of the fastest growing cities in the US. How is it that Apple Maps satellite imagery is >5 years behind? This seemingly would be easy to keep up with. Google is way more up to date than Apple. Why such poor quality Apple??

Geolocation trouble on apple map, weather app and Safari Hi all! Any one does run into the trouble like me with geolocation: not working my location in Safari, Apple Map and Weather but at the same time my location is managed to get in Chrome, in different map's web sites The current status is: all geolocation services are switched on, tried Safety Mode to switch of and on it (no impact), changed settings of geolocation in Safari for web sites: from "to ask", "to allow" (no impact).

Use the Maps menu > Report an Issue...

... and wait patiently for Apple to use a more recent publicly available image.

My experience is Google maps is always ahead of Apple Maps revision wise..
