No 'GPS' menu-option
      #780209 - 02/02/07 02:41 AM

Hi all.

I just upgraded to GE Plus mainly for GPS import feature.

But in my GE version there is no GPS menu option in the Tools menu or elsewhere.
I remember a greyed-out one in the free version but now it's gone, simply not there...

Am i dumb or what?! How do i get GPS working?

Regards
....volker

Can you make sure you are using the newest version Google Earth 4 Plus? To check, go to Help -> About Google Earth.

If you're using v4.0.2722 and you still can't use GPS, I would uninstall Google Earth and download a fresh copy from earth.google.com.

Let us know how it goes!

Downloaded 4.0.2735 (Build date 30.1.2007). Removed the GEP install directory and the directory in the user's home dir before installing.

4.0.2735 runs fine, no visible changes and still no GPS menu option.

I'm having the same problem, I upgraded to Plus and then tried to download a track from my GPS but it crashed every time I tried. I did a check for updates and it said a newer version was available so I downloaded and installed it. (The original version was 4.0.xxx, the new one was just an upgrade on the xxx) Now there's no GPS option in the Tool menu. This is the only reason I upgraded to Plus!

I thought as a Plus subscriber you could post a support ticket to Googleearth but I can't seem to find how you do this.

I want to see my track!
