Q: Aperture and Apple Maps

In Aperture 3.6 the GPS feature is supposed to use Apple Maps now. But instead of showing the map, it says "Your computer is not connected to the Internet. Aperture needs an Internet connection to show where your photos were taken".

Of course the computer is connected to the internet and the photos still have correct GPS coordinates...

Any idea how to fix that?

    You may be getting the same error message, if Apple's Map servers are not working or if a firewall, like Little Snitch,  is intercepting the connection to the map server. You may want to disable firewalls to check this.

     

    Can other apps connect to maps servers? Maps? iPhoto? Contacts?

     

    If iPhoto can show the maps, but Aperture not, reinstall Aperture.

    other apps were working. Seems turning the firewall off and back on fixed Aperture too. Thanks!
