How can i show custom lis of places / addresses from a json file to show in google places autocomplete search instead of getting them from google places api?

I am working on a project where my customer has to administrate (delete & add) several addresses (locations) on a google map.
This map needs to be inserted in a website with all the POIs.
Also the app needs to be embedded in android app and ios app.
The point now is how can I make it possible for the customer to administrate all locations?
When using the:
Google Maps Android API
Google Maps for iOS
Google Maps JavaScript API
Might be super easy but I miss this puzzle....
Take a look at Google My Maps - service that enables users to create custom maps for personal use or sharing (mymaps on stackoverflow). But take into account that currently there is no any API to access My Maps programmatically.
I have a question, searching a local business on Bing maps results in detail information about the business for instance its phone, url and hours of operations. I didn't find a way to get similar attributes (phone, url, hours of operations etc) by Bing maps API. My question is it just me, who is unable to find a way to extract such info or there is no way (through Bing maps API)?
This is to be expected. The Bing Maps website is just like any other company that uses the Bing Maps API's. They use the API's to provide mapping functionality and then add their custom functionality on top. A lot of the rich business listing data that you see on the Bing Maps website is sourced from other companies such as Yelp, Four Square or Trip advisor, but they only allow the Bing Maps to use this data in their 1st party apps (i.e. Bing Maps website) and not in the developer API's as these companies already have developer API's. This is the primary reason why you will see more data on the Bing Maps website than you will in the API. You will find that this is also the case with Google Maps as well.
I am creating a search engine using Goolge Custom Search API (JSON/atom). I have associated my search engine with an adsense account but when I make queries I don't get any ads with search results also I have checked the Google Custom Search documentation and it does not mention anything about ads in the response of the API call, it only tell about the search results and the promotions.
I want to know if its possible to get search ads with JSON/atom API.
Thanks in advance,

Im using google map api and im being limited to 8 searches everytime im searching for a business place and its not very accurate( meaning that there is a nearby mcdonalds that did not appear on the search). Does anyone know of any good tutorials on how to increase the amount of results nd how is it possible to set the results so that they appear automatically providing a list of the names of all nearby business within a radius kind of like foursquare or facebook places?
It sounds like you are either using the deprecated Google Local Search API, or the GoogleBar for Maps API v2. If you switch to Maps API v3 you can use the new Places library, which will return 20 results per query in JSON format so that you can render them on and alongside the map as you please:

Im trying to create a "search nearby" shops on iphone,
but i can not find any solution on how to get the data from Gdata Libraries.
http://code.google.com/p/gdata-objectivec-client/
They only support the following Google services provides a Google data API, but not google maps?!
Google Base
Blogger
Book Search
Calendar
Code Search
Contacts
Documents List
Finance
Health
Picasa Web Albums
Spreadsheets
Webmaster Tools
YouTube
Any solution or idea where i should look for would be much appreciated.
As far as I know, the only way to do this is to use the KML output format from a standard Google search:
http://maps.google.com.au/maps?f=q&source=s_q&hl=en&geocode=&q=italian%20category:restaurants&sll=-37.816518,144.890628&sspn=0.007247,0.012424&ie=UTF8&z=12&output=kml
Although you should check Google's terms and conditions to see if you're allowed to use that as an API.
