Thanks for the feedback.

Probably because I’ve been messing with it. It’s a shared connection. Try again in 5 minutes. :).

If that fails I can switch geocode location provider and we can try that.

Ok, I tried again, this time it says “You’ve performed this action too many times. Please wait 59 seconds before trying again.”

OK I’ve switched provider - give that a whirl?

Just tried again, similar message “You’ve performed this action too many times. Please wait 51 seconds before trying again.”

Ok let me think about it. :).

Leave it for today.

Still no joy. I also get the message about trying too many times. I’ve tried street address, city, state, zip and I’ve tried pretty much every variation of those fields that I can think of.

Once that message comes up you have to leave it for a bit.

Paid location services are probably better.

Could you try it again? Unfortunately the response of the off-site address database seems slow so once you’ve typed in a search term please wait for it to respond and update a few seconds.

I’ve done an ooops and reset the Follow network: you may have to re-follow people manually all over again.

This may be an opportunity to re-assess who you follow?

Profuse apologies!!
