Map - Driving Directions Problem.

Hi guys, I have a pointer on my map however when 'i' is clicked for driving directions, I am presented with the error message 'It appears that device location information is unavailible. This feature will not work without location information'. Ive changed the settings in the proerties section of the control panel but still no luck, has anyone know how to get around this little problem? Many thanks.

The message only means that the application does not have latitude/longitude for the device. Just because the device has 'allowed' it doens't necessary mean it's available. There are tons and tons of things that can cause the location info. to not be available. Consider what happens with GPS info is not reachable. So.... restarting may help but really it's a matter of percentage. Most of the time it will be available but not all of the time.
