Weather docklet problems

July 15, 2006 1:36 AM from

I tried the search, but it's not working right now. I'm having problems getting the docklet to work, it doesn't show any info, stating it's N/A. I didn't see any firewall setting that needed to be changed, and I even disabled the firewall to see if it made a difference. Any ideas?

I came for the same reason, I think the weather.com access key used is reached it limit for the decade, I just with I could use my key but this has to be a compiled library file .dll! :NOTSURE:

I can't tell it is working! maybe they changed the xml format and the docket cant farse it right!

I downloaded OD free for my inlaw yesterday - the weather docklet worked.
I tried mine (OD free) last night when I got home - it worked.

I believe it's on a timer. When I first fire up the puter, it's n/a since I'm on dialup. After I get access, it takes a while unless I right click and update.

Hmm, I've made no changes to my computer's settings since I started this thread, and all of a sudden, the weather info is showing. Must be problems at the other end, it just seems to cut out every now and then. Oh well.

I'm having a similar problem.

The weather docklet hasn't worked for about 2 days now.

It just keeps saying Weather Information Unavailable.

Can somebody test it for me? My zipcode is 31404
