This is so helpful. We have a travel blog and I have struggled for years to try to use maps on our site. Thanks to your excellent video, I am now able to really put Google Maps to good use. The the audio is so good and no echos what did you use for screen capture and audio recording?
Hi! Thank you for sharing this tutorial! It is super helpful. However, I don't have the option to share and have others edit and I need that feature. Why could that be??
Nice video. One thing the drives me crazy about mymaps is there is no scale displayed. Any idea how to get the scale to show? I have searched in vain for the answer.
Thank you, but I still don't know if there is any way how to print the map with all the points, labels and description in the map... or just map and list of points with description? Thank you very much!
Great video thanks. Is there a way for people you sharea Google map link with to get notifications if the map is updated? Want to create road trip map for us to use whilst on our journey and add photos in when we arrive at a certain destination . I would like for my elderly father to be able to follow our journey and see where we are at any one time and also the photos . Is there a way to do that?
This is very helpful. I have created a map of hotels in Memphis. I would like to take a screen shot of the map to include in a presentation. I also want to zoom in as far as I can, but still include each of the hotels I've mapped. However, Google has a lot of search bars, logos, and other images that partly obscure areas of my map. Is there a way to hide all (or some) of these images, such as the Google Search bar at the top left or the Google My Maps logo at the bottom, just so I can get a couple extra inches of viewable map space? Thanks for your tips!
Since you claimed that you somehow created a map, then that means you're a google employee because only google employees have the create a map option. Maybe you can pass this along to the morons there: I'd post this in the community but I'm not a Google so I can't post in there either as only Google Employees can create a topic there. 1. Stop using the phrase MY MAPS because there is no such thing. The correct word is just MAPS which is found buried in the 9 dots on the upper right side of the screen. That maps option is the same as typing "Google maps" into Google 2. There is absolutely 100% no such thing as CREATE NEW MAP for anyone that isn't a Google Employee 3. There is only one color and type pf pin (A red upside down teardrop shape) 4. A pin can only be on the map as long as the place the pin is for is typed into the search bar on the map 5. Only 1 custom red teardrop pin can be on the map, adding another pin, removes the previous pin

I am importing excel data by state into google maps. For some reason I get an error saying 20 of the 42 states on the list can't be added because of errors. It says to open the data table to fix the errors. However, when I open the data table, all the state entries are correct. Changing abbreviation to the state name doesn't work, because it defaults the state of Georgia to the country of Georgia. Clicking on the red triangle doesn't help, because t doesn't give any information.
Hi, thank you for creating this! Would you be interested in collaborating on the development of a mobile app that allows you to access and create interactive maps to share with others? The app lets you invite friends to participate in the map creation process and allows you to interact with friends within the map itself. The app is almost ready, but would you like to try it before we launch? If so, with your feedback we could fine tune it to create something that you and your fans would love.
is there a way to turn off Google's automatically choosing the expressway when traveling within the city? Using the expressway in the city is expensive in Tokyo. Hard to believe they wouldn't know that. i think users should be given the chance to choose whether or not they want to pay road tolls.
I want to reach destination. For this i open my map file in preview.but it no open and show message < when you open your map this is how it will look in view only mood >. Where I have an issue . Kindly tell me My google account icon also not shown on right side which you mention in vedio.
Ok, I know this video is > 2 years old. But I'm going to throw a question out here anyway. I help run a local beekeeping club. The club itself has a gmail account (we use it for the calendar, drive, & email). I have created a My Map of all of the members in the club - which I can share to all of the members of the club. I would DEARLY love to be able to give each person the ability to edit THEIR OWN entry - but ONLY their own entry (assuming of course they have a gmail account). Is there any way to do this?
I shared my maps with my coworkers but they are not able to use it on their phones? The type one of the saved locations but it does not comes up. Do you know why?
I don't like the way the marker works on the actual map. When the marker is clicked, it just shows the details on the left side. Is there a way to customize those markers in a way that it shows the same behavior like in editing mode where when you hover on the markers, the details, pictures or video shows on a pop-up.
Thank you! What i am searching for for now, is how to change language on MyMap to be X, which would not be English or whatever local language Google thinks should be applied in a country. I don't want to change language to be changed for all my maps, just this specific project i am working on.
Darn, I was hoping I could create my own world maps. Like a fantasy world that doesn't already exist. I mainly just wanted a blueprint of long and lat on a map I could then draw on or something to make sure that land masses connect properly if they had to be cut by end of a rectangular map and still make sense if converted to a spherical map like a globe... hmm
