I have a problem with google maps. Zooming is not smooth in FF and IE (in Chrome works well)
Could you please check this google demo (Problem is also reproducible here.):
http://code.google.com/apis/maps/documentation/javascript/examples/places-autocomplete.html
Is there any way to make it smooth?
UPDATE:
I have found a solution. I set my app to use v=3.4 version of google map api. Zooming is smooth now.

I have a Windows Phone (a Nokia Lumia) from which I recently encountered an issue. I can't zoom (pinch zoom) or navigate (scrolling with the finger) using Google Maps. It was possible I believe last week or the week before that, but now it's not working anymore.
I can't recall any updates issued in between last working date and now, nor have I fiddled with any options.
I saw in a thread that one could use the options in the browser in order to enable zooming. But this option is not present for me. I use Internet Explorer.
Based from this thread, if it was determined that you are on a desktop version or IE, it will allow zooming to be controlled by mouse. Touch won't work at all. I also found this blog which states that:
The mobile Web version of Google Maps is optimized for WebKit browsers such as Chrome and Safari. However, since Internet Explorer is not a WebKit browser, Windows Phone devices are not able to access Google Maps for the mobile Web.
The desktop version of Google Maps works just fine in these browsers. It's one thing for Google to say the mobile site isn't tested or supported in the mobile browsers, but the desktop version, at least, shouldn't be off-limits. The desktop version may not be ideal in a mobile browser, but it does work.
I'm using the WP Google Maps Pro plugin on my Wordpress site to display various maps (API 3):

In chrome for OS X, I'm getting a 1px horizontal white line when displaying the map:
This only seems to affect Google Chrome. I've tested in Safari and Firefox and the problem does not occur. I've attempted disabling some chrome extensions but to no avail.
Issue no longer occurs in Chrome Version 37.0
I am trying to turn off main lines (grid map) in google maps api for web, but I do not know how to do. I was trying to set borders to 0, but it still display on map.
Thank you in advance for help.
I think this is a bug with the latest version of Chrome. It happens on my site http://www.shortwave.am as well but only on the newest Chrome version and not Chrome 33.0.1750.154 or Firefox.
I have two apps both using the newest version of google maps sdk 1.4.0
There's a weird issue I'm seeing on ios7 where the user's current location is surrounded by a white square (see image below)
I'm not really doing any funky things with the map, just that pin image over the map. Any ideas how to fix this?
It's a known issue on Simalutor. Both iOS 7 and 8.
Works fine on real devices.
You can check the issue in google maps api bug tracker here.
I have an application using Bing Maps that draws polygons on a map. For most polygons, the system works fine, and shows the shape correct. However, with huge polygons (covering almost the entire planet), I get errors in IE7 and IE8. The errors are related to a setSize method within the map script (veapicore.js). The map works correctly in IE9 and FF (still working on Chrome). The page is [http://data.nbr.org/Mapping/chinamissilerange]. The first two checkboxes work fine, the third is where the problem is (803 Brigade Base 55).
I can't figure out what could be causing the problem. Does anyone know what this issue could be?
Thanks,
Erick
I have solved this question. It turns out that IE7 and IE8 have issues with this particular API when everything isn't finished loading. Moving the map javascript to $(window).load fixed the issue.
