A small gesture for our members to thank you for all your posts on Motorhome Craic.

Here is the Google KML file of all our Motorhome Parking spots up until October 2012

If you have not already got Google Earth then download it from HERE


After installing Google Earth then download the attached file to your desktop and double click it, it will open automatically in Google Earth.


File removed, see subscribed section for new 2013 POI File.

Ok I have no experience with Apple but let's start from the begining

1. Download & INSTALL Google Earth for Apple HERE

Compatible with iPhone, iPod touch and iPad. Requires iOS 4.3 or later.

2. Download the File from post one on this thread.


3. Open the file you downloaded from Motorhomecraic and it should open automatically on your iPad in Google Earth?


Those that have it working on an iPad is that what you do?


Beakey: is your Toshiba an Android tablet?

Yes.

That is exactly how to do it.
If you have google earth installed and download the POI file you are given the option to "open in google earth" top right of your screen.

The funny thing with apple is.
If you close google earth and open it later all the pois are gone. I have looked in settings but can't find how to switch them on again

Any ideas?
