Location Service for Calendar

While I was creating a new event on calendar, I wanted to add a location. An alert popped out asking me if am allowing location service. I accidentally clicked "Don't Allow"!

Now, every time I try to create a new event and add a location, the related location don't pop up anymore. if this makes sense.

Like when you type a location, a list of related locations appears underneath.

I tried to look at settings such as location service and calendar, but could not find anything wrong.

Help Please!

Thanks so much!

Regards

The only other area I could think of would be under System Services and Spotlight locations. That could affect the search for a location when adding a calendar event. I may be wrong, but that is all I have left.

If you are referring to the iPhone, since you are in the iPhone forum, go to Settings>Privacy>Location Services>Calendar, and set your setting there. You can have Never, or While Using the App.

I'm sorry, but in all of my research, I don't find another spot to make any other changes. However, I have another thought. When adding an event to Calendar, the locations that tend to come up are ones that seem to have been searched for in Maps, or something you may have used in the past as a location from on of your contacts. I wish I could help you more, but I'm at a loss.

I was having the same issue and just now found a way to get location service back. I had to change my default calendar to my gmail. When I'm adding calendar events now I make sure the gmail is listed as default then I'm able to get location suggestions.
