:( It started happening about three weeks into 2.1, which didn't make much sense at the time; I figured I had installed something else that was somehow interfering with the BK app. I went as far as completely DFU'ing my phone and rebuilding it from scratch, downloading the app again, and reinstalling. I wish I had read this first. doh! It sounds like you guys know what the issue is. I'm looking forward to the update. :) – xtex404, on December 01, 2008 18:32

Can you try rebooting your phone? If that doesn't help, go into the Google Maps app and hit the locate button there, to see if it can find you. – Martin May, on November 30, 2008 21:25

Yes, i turned it on and then the finding process starts but never stops, the wheel is turning and "finding you..." is written but never disappears – bunny, on November 30, 2008 21:16

Did you try toggling the "Find me" button to on? No need to open a new question. – Martin May, on November 30, 2008 21:06

On the placemarks page? The problem you described in your post above seems to refer to something else. The "Find me" button on the "I am..." screen is a toggle button, you can turn it on or off. – Martin May, on November 30, 2008 20:48

Eric, this is a bug that happens with iPhone OS 2.2. We'll be releasing an update shortly that should fix that.

I have the same problem: click on the "find me" button, the application starts looking for my location but nothing ever happens afterwards.

Its annoying since i thought that this is one of the "main" functions: tracking my location and telling me how is close to me...

I get no response from the placemarks page, which is a lot easier to use than GPS find + Pick a place + search. :/

Really wish I could edit existing placemarks to put that info in rather than having to create new ones – Eric, on November 26, 2008 16:15

On the Placemarks screen I have a hard time "clicking" the Check In button. It just doesn't seem to click easily, and sometimes a Delete button slides in from the right over the Check In button. Am I doing it wrong?
