Find a location in Maps on Mac
You can find addresses, businesses, landmarks and more — whether they’re nearby or further away — and get information about a location.
Ask Siri. Say something like:
“Find coffee near me.”
“What’s the quickest way to the Sydney Harbour Bridge?”
In the Maps app on your Mac, click the Current Location button to show your location on the map.
Note: If you see a message that Maps can’t use your current location allow Maps to use your location.
Click in the search field, then enter an address or other information. For example:
Intersection (“8th and market”)
Area (“Sydney”)
Landmark (“Circular Quay”)
Postcode (“2026”)
Business (“movies”, “restaurants San Francisco”, “apple inc.”)
GPS coordinates (“37.8199 N, 122.4783 W”)
Click a location’s pin on the map, then click the More button in the information card.
Information cards can show the location’s address, the type of location (for example, a landmark or a business) and the distance from your current location. You can also get directions, add the location to your favourites or contacts or report an issue.
To close the information card click outside it.
To open multiple maps, choose File > New Window.
You can also open a map from apps such as Mail, Contacts and Calendar. For example, in a Mail message, hold the pointer over an address, then click the arrow that appears.
