Hi

Sorry that this seems to be a repeat question.

I have existing V2 maps on several domains.  For reasons unrelated to the 
maps, I need to move some of these to a new domain.

Of course I get the usual message:  "This web site needs a different Google 
Maps API key. A new key can be generated at 
http://code.google.com/apis/maps/documentation/javascript/v2/introduction.html#Obtaining_Key.";

The search for the Google site to get a version 2 key was fruitless.   

1) Going to the url given in the error message sent me to a page  that (of 
course) said V2 was deprecated but contained a link to the "Developer's 
Reference".  That had this informative sentence section:

To create your API key, visit the APIs Console at 
https://code.google.com/apis/console and log in with your Google Account.

Click the *Services* link from the left-hand menu, then activate the *Google 
Maps API v2* service.

Once the service has been activated, your API key is available from the *API 
Access* page, in the *Simple API Access* section. Maps API applications use 
the *Key for browser apps*.
 
2) Following that set of instructions I went tp the Google API Console 
https://code.google.com/apis/console.

3) The console first asked me to create a *project* which I did.  Then in 
the API Access tab  I got a list of items:

Client ID:
Email address
Client Secret:
Redirect URLs
Javascript origins:

I was getting hopeful ...


4) Then following the next instruction from the developer reference, I 
went  back to the the console home page and clicked on *services* and 
selected *Google Maps v2.*

5) Unfortunately that brings up the v3 page and none of the options 
mentioned in the reference.  In fact both the v2 link and v3 link have the 
same url address in the link, namely 
"http://code.google.com/apis/maps/documentation/javascript/";


Can anyone solve this puzzle for me?

Thanks
Richard
