I am unable to use location access in my mac firefox browser. When using the Met office uk for example I get this message each time. Sorry. We could not get your position because your web browser or device did not give permission to use your location. I have looked at the preference settings and the met office is allowed.

You can check the "Access your location" setting in "Tools -> Page Info -> Permissions". Also make sure you have enabled this feature in the Mac OS settings.

  • System Preferences -> Security & Privacy -> Privacy -> "Location Services" (left-side menu)
