Unsolved Apple Maps isn't syncing
-
Hi there! I have been using Mozlocal for a local client for a few months now. They recently opened, so I began the syncing process a few weeks ago. Apple Maps is reporting as synced when I view it in my Listings, but when viewing the actual listing on Apple Maps, the hours are very wrong. It is an important time of year for this business, and appearing as not open for 6 days a week is not great. Is there anything else I can do through Mozlocal to get this listing fully synced?

Manually verify the listing on Apple Maps and update directly.
Resubmit changes through Mozlocal to ensure re-syncing.
Contact Mozlocal support if issues persist to troubleshoot further. This can help with improving your local seo. -
If Apple Maps isn’t syncing, try these quick fixes:
Check iCloud Settings: Ensure Maps is enabled in iCloud under Settings > [Your Name] > iCloud.
Update iOS: Make sure you have the latest iOS version, as updates can resolve syncing issues.
Check Internet Connection: Syncing requires a stable internet connection, so verify your Wi-Fi or cellular data.
Restart Devices: Restart your iPhone, iPad, or Mac to refresh the system.
Sign Out and Back into iCloud: Sometimes, signing out and back in can re-trigger sync.
Reset Location & Privacy: Go to Settings > General > Reset > Reset Location & Privacy.
If none of these work, contact Apple Support for further assistance. -

Hi! It sounds frustrating to deal with incorrect hours on such an important platform. While MozLocal reports the listing as synced, it’s possible that the data hasn't fully propagated to Apple Maps yet. Here's what you can try:Check for Manual Edits: Sometimes, listings might be manually edited by Apple users or local guides. Verify if any manual changes were made to the business hours on Apple Maps.
Resubmit Through MozLocal: Go back to your MozLocal dashboard and manually re-sync the data to Apple Maps. You can also update the business hours to ensure everything is correctly entered before resubmitting.
Apple Maps Connect: If MozLocal continues to show syncing issues, consider logging into Apple Maps Connect and manually update the hours there. This can help you regain control over the listing directly.
Wait and Monitor: It might take some time for Apple Maps to reflect the correct information. Monitor it for a few days after re-syncing or manual updates.
For those looking for an easy-to-use app with features like background music and multilingual support, check out YMusic for iOS. It might not solve your Apple Maps issue, but it's great for background entertainment while troubleshooting!>

Our Google my business listings aren't syncing with Moz listings. I've tried importing them but nothing happens. Anyone know what the problem could be?
We have a professional level subscription for 5 company listings on Moz Local. These listings seem to have synced everywhere except for Google My Business. 1 out of 5 of these synced with Google My Business. When I try to import the listings that aren't synced, nothing happens. I would try the option "push to Google my Business" but we already have listings there. Any ideas about why these aren't importing/syncing?

Submitted listings for Removal via MOZ local 7 months - still showing 'Request Submitted'
I manage multiple health care practices and have them submitted to MOZ Local. The main reason for this is to clean up and remove listings with inconsistent business names, addresses and phone numbers on aggregators such as InfoUSA and Localeze. I felt MOZ Local would be something that could save time and money for myself and clients so I wouldn't have to do the phone verification game for sites such as InfoUSA and localeze. In some cases I submitted for removal aggregator listings 7-8 months ago but they are still showing the same 'Request Submitted'. What is the standard time I can expect these requests to go through. I sort of feel duped believing that MOZ would remove duplicate/incorrect listings somewhat quickly. If anyone else has a similar experience or a timeframe of removal for sites MOZ works with that would be great.

Moz local is telling me that I don't have a Google+ listing when I actually do. What is the problem?
I have about 7 of my clients listings currently in Moz Local. It's showing that we don't have a Google+ listing when we actually do. Everything I have in Google My Business (NAP) matches what I have in Moz Local. It's a service based business and Google has recommended that we hide the address since consumers don't actually visit my clients location. Could that be the issue? If so, how do we take care of this?

How does Moz Local work with business that don't have a physical location? (e.g., handyman, locksmith, etc.)
I'm wondering how Moz Local will handle a business that doesn't want to publicly display an address. A handyman, landscaper, or locksmith might want to do something like this. Is it easily handled or do you have to manually try to "work around" to hide the address on sites that let you? Thanks!
