Mac OS X 10.2, 10.3, 10.4: Address Book - How to Locate and Use the "Map Of" Feature

In Mac OS X 10.2 and later, Address Book includes a "Map Of " feature for locating an address on a card.
To use the "Map Of " feature, you must be connected to the Internet. Additionally, a given card must have at least one valid address and country entered. If necessary, click the Edit button to add one to the selected card before using the "Map Of" feature.

To see a map of a valid address, simply click the label (such as "Home" or "Work") that appears to the left of the address, as in Figure 1.
