Hi, I love the new, little weather app/temperature icon in the upper left of the Firefox home page. HOWEVER, I really want to change it to a city closer to me. I looked up how to do it, but the directions seem WRONG. I cannot hover and find any way to change locations. Is it because I'm on a Mac? or ?

Can you help me? I'm using an iMac computer... everything works, it's updated, what could be wrong?

thanks, Kathy P.

You don't have Change location? Enter about:config in the address bar and switch browser.newtabpage.activity-stream.weather.locationSearchEnabled = true.

You need to click the tree-dots that appear if you hover the weather widget .

"Change location" might be disabled/hidden in the three-dot Weather menu, you may need to enable this via about:config.
