Why is my Droid Turbo prompting me to turn on the location everytime?

Why is Droid Turbo prompting me for turning on location everytime.

When I run programs (could be any of the location programs) gives me this error intermittently and continuously.

"In a previous version of Android, you turned off the ability for Google apps to access your location.

Turn it back on for all Google Apps?

<Not Now> <Yes>"

When I press yes or not now it keeps prompting. Even does this for Maps.

System version 21.44.8
Android version 4.4.4

Thank you,

Go to Settings>Google>Location and turn it on if its not.

Eclipse2K - Thanks foryour feedback.

I have already turned the location on and off but this prompt still occurs. I Need location on for maps, and a lot of other items.


This is really annoying, because it keeps popping up and the location is already on.

Thanks,

You may want to try and clear your cache. Here is a write up by Motorola on how to do it.

Tried the clear cache steps and never can get the boot screen (#2) to show up.

Go into settings / location and turn it off. Then turn it on again - you'll get a couple of prompts that you have to agree to. Try saying yes to both of those, and see if that stops the prompts.

Clear cache takes usually 10 minutes or so - you just have to wait it out. I think that you're giving up too soon.
