Google Maps - Pull Address from Calendar?

keri2000 · #1 (**permalink**) 07-02-2008, 12:06 PM

Hello:

I am sorry if this has been asked, I did do searches.

Anyway, does anyone know how to force Google Maps to pull an address from the Calendar location of an appointment? Here is how I currently get Google Maps to find my appointment location. Open Google Maps, open Calendar, open/edit appointment and highlight the address, copy address, close Calendar, paste address into Google Maps, then Search.

This seems time consuming. Is there a better way?

Thanks!
Keri

I run the Google Maps app on my Titan so one of the options in Contacts, under Menu (right softkey), is to "Locate in Google Maps." Works for me...

Thanks, I already use that option for my Contacts with addresses, but I don't see this feature available for the Calendar....

True, I didn't think about that. I am not sure that it can be done easily with the built-in calendar. Though you could use GooSync (free version) to sync your Gmail calendar with your PPC, into your built-in calendar. Because it is using the Gmail calendar, it may allow you to use Google Maps for the PPC to locate the meeting location... as the desktop version allows you to. But I am not sure.

Worth a try though. If you do try it, let us know if it worked.
