    jeffclarke,

     

    First thing is to check whether you can access and use Bing map in IE.
    https://www.bing.com/maps

     

    I have tested it on my local environment, we can use use map visual without any issue. In your scenario, could you please try to updated your Power BI desktop to latest version and check if this issue persists or not. If the issue persists, please share your PBIX file, so that we can make further analysis.

     

    Regards,

    Charlie Liao

I'm working on one of the Tutorials and am having trouble with the Map Visualization for STATE name.

 

The first tutorial I did worked fine and I have gone through the online tips as suggested in related posts, but this one doesn't want to recognize it properly...and yes I have already changed the Data Category to State or Province.

 

Tried to insert a screen shot but there is no upload function.

 

The source of the data is

The Tutorial is at:
