Hi emax,

I can't open the file which is telling me that it is from a previous version of Google Earth or not a google earth file.

 

[emax]

Which version of google-earth do do you have?
Anybody else having a similar problem?

The Australian east coast is catching up.

Hi Emax,

When I try to download I get the below error?
 

 

[emax]

Acrobat Reader is for PDF files, but not eligible for KMZ files.

This might be a setting of your device (PC, Tablet ...) or your browser which tries for some reason to open KMZ files by default with Acrobat Reader.

You have to download the KMZ file to your device (just 'download', not 'open with ...') and then import it into google earth. Or 'open with ... google earth'.

Iv'e also updated our site as you had our other showroom which is in Warrington.

I got this from ARKAIG (AFAIK).

So I assume your new entry shall be the only one and replace the older one. If this is not the case, just add the former one again with an extra name, e.g.  "Halliwell ... showroom"

Not guilty! None of my Long/Lats are to 12-16 decimal places. 

"Prev entry:
lat 53.40195503235892
lon -2.5934021694428124"

 

[emax]

It's not about guilt, so don't worry. And I am not sure where I have it from, see above:  AFAIK ...

... a few minutes later ...

I have found the "guilty" one: It's me.  ?

This was one of my very first entries I made, but I do not remember where I got the data from. So you can now relax, Arkaig, police is already on the way back to the cop shop. ;-)

Sorry for the mistake. ?

Hi Emax,

Yes the point I have put in will be our showroom yes.

The previous is a BMW and Mini showroom we have at another site.

@Arkaig
You have sent an entry with the following issues:

1. The longitude is -2094572 which is not a valid value (missing decimal point?)
2. The Note contains a comma
3. You have made yourself a dealer. If you use "Arkaig" as the entry name, this will replace the existing "Arkaig"

Please, "play it again, sam".

Well done, thank you!
