Viewing 3D with Google Earth? (problem)

[Michguy04]

OK, I saw on the Disney World Website the instructions to get a 3D Tour using Google Earth.

www.disneyworld.com/3dparks


Here is the problem....I just downloaded the newest version on Google Earth, BUT when I do the search for "Disney World" the Yellow Mouse Ears don't appear for me???

Is there some kind of other setting I need to click on or off?

Thanks for any help-
Guy

31 Days to go until our first ever WDW trip

Are you having a problem getting the 3D going?
In Google Earth, on the left hand lower option window, make sure 3D buildings is selected.
When you do a search for Disney World, zoom in to the area you want to view.
On the upper right part of the screen, you'll see 2 controls, the lower one is for north east south and west, the upper one will tilt the view. Select the up arrow to tilt to ground level. You'll need to play around with zooming in and out, but you can get right on Main Street, and zoom up to the castle. You can even see the Dapper Dans outside practicing.

Never could get it to work for me either, thanks.

No the bigger problem (I think) is that the video instructions on the mentioned website shows that when you type in "Disney World" in the search bar that "a yellow Mickey" will appear.

It doesn't show up for me?

OK, on the same left hand window (layers), select the plus sign next to Gallery
When it expands, select the plus sign next to Travel and Tourism.
Now browse down until you see Walt Disney World, and check the box.
This turns on the Disney layer, and you'll see all kinds of Mickeys, yellow, purple, blue, etc...
