having trouble with google maps api key

Hey Guys
I get the message:
Could not connect to Google Maps with this API Key.
Troubleshooting:
Check if you typed the key correctly.
If you use the restriction setting on Google try to remove that, wait a few minutes for google to apply your changes and then check again if the key works here. If it does, you probably have a syntax error in your referrer url
If none of this helps: deactivate all plugins and then check if the API works by using the button above. If thats the case then one of your plugins is interfering.

I disabled all the plugins, and I also set up a new api key, I also unrestricted the key for a while, but then restricted it again.
the google account is active and working. I have 50 other keys that don’t have any issues.

I did a research and found that I can put the script:
<script async defer
src=”https://maps.googleapis.com/maps/api/js?key=YOURAPIKEY&callback=initMap”&gt;
</script>
directly into the body code.. I use perfmatters for this.. and it is working now. but there must be something else wrong why enfold won’t let me place it.
My way is not as elegant as putting it into the google services page in enfold.
Thanks so much for helping me.
Tina
