Hi,

Your Mac location may be wrong because you're using a VPN or because you're connecting to a different network location. You may have also disabled Location Services. 

You can remove or correct your location from your Mac, also you can turn off location services on your Mac.

Hi, thanks for ideas.


My VPN is rarely used so i do not believe this si the issue.


Please explain "because you're connecting to a different network location".

Both MacBook and iphone are connected to the same router in my home.


please are you able to tell me how to correct my location form my Mac. i notice that the button on the bottom right hand side of Google maps on my Mac ( black circle with lines at 12, 3, 6 and 9 o'clock) is flashing saying "getting current location"


Much appreciated.
