Does anyone know how to link the Address Book to Google Maps instead of Mapquest? Thanks.

    Outstanding! My copy of Tiger arrives later this week. I'll make the changes your link noted then. Thanks

    I'm surrised that Apple didn't make this default in the first place since they have a Google link in Safari. They seem to have a small aliance with Google.

    Okay - I tried this but I get a text box that says my copy of the phonebook.js file is read only. How do I change the permissions so I can modify this file? I don't know what to select in the "get info/ownership & permissions menu."

    Does Safari 2.0 fully support Google Maps? Safari 1.3 doesn't work too well...

    Type in an address. When it finds it, try clicking either Directions To Here or From Here. Nothing happens.

    The same thing is happening to me too. I use 1.3. Oddly enough, it used to work properly till around three days ago. I was able to click and get directions etc., and three days ago I tried it and it would not work!



    I did not install anything, I did not update anything, no change from the usual at all. Odd!



    Cheers

    I have that problem as well and I am using Tiger with Safari 2.0.
