When I hover over the weather on my Calendar (new Outlook.com site) it provides a "change" for the location. But, when selected it does not provide a means to change the location. How is it done?

Hi everyone,

I have recreated the issue and was successful in changing my Calendar Weather to Oxnard, CA .  Simply follow the steps provided by Gwyneth_A and when you are in step 6, type in the location that you want (example Oxnard, CA). You will then notice that the locaiton " Oxnard, CA" will be beside the the "Location:". You may then click the Save button.

I hope this helps.

Thanks!

Hi,

Please try again the instructions provided by the previous moderator then try logging out of the account and then log back in after a minute to see if there will be any changes. Sometimes, the changes do not take effect automatically. Once done and issue still persists, kindly optimize your browser by following these steps:

·         For Internet Explorer browser: Press CTRL+SHIFT+DEL simultaneously and click Delete

·         For Google Chrome: Press CTRL+SHIFT+DEL simultaneously and click Clear Browsing Data

·         For Firefox: Press CTRL+SHIFT+DEL simultaneously and click Clear Now

If your browser is not included on the instructions above, please refer to the link below for instructions on how to optimize your browser:

**How to Clear Your Browser's Cache**

In addition, please make sure that the browser you are using is in the list of fully supported browsers for Outlook.com. Please refer to this link for more details.

Also, we would like you to change the settings of your account to automatically use https. Please follow these steps:

  1. Sign in through this link: https://account.live.com/ManageSSL
  2. Choose Use HTTPS automatically (please see the note above)
  3. Click on Save.

Note: If you are already connecting to Hotmail using HTTPS, try switching back to HTTP.           

Once done, please check if issue will still persist. If it does, please provide the following:

-Does issue persist when using another browser?

-Does it also persist when using another computer?

-Does it also happen to your other account when accessed on the same computer using the same browser?

Thanks.

    I can' find any private message tab or link in your post.

    As I said before in a post that didn't seem to submit, I have tried all the directions in the posts on 5 pc's with various operating systems

    XP, Vista, W7, W8, Ubunta using Chrome, Firefox and IE

    If that information is of any use to you.

    Apart from moving to the location of my weather icon my only option was to turn it off to stop it annoying me, hopefuly it will be fixed at sometime in the future.

    Thanks for all the advice.
