[QUOTE="bearhntr, post: 854482, member: 117357"] Lehmden, OK. I copied over the original file to the folder and everything looks as if it was reset. The original 5 cities are there - that I had deleted. I started with number 6 and built one for my City (SNELLVILLE, GA). I used the following information for the file: CITY: Snellville CITY CODE: USGA0526 POSTAL CODE: 30078 DESCRIPTION: United States TIME ZONE: (UTC-5:00) Eastern Time (US & Canada) LONG: -84,0917 LAT: 33,8633 (note that these originally had a '.' [period] not a ',' [comma]) Units: Temperature: Farhenheit Wind : Miles per hour Pressuure : Pounds per square inch Visibility : Miles (YES) Round Values I registered for WorldWeather Online API code, and it has been added to the software and I have tried WWO, Google and Yahoo for the providers. I did finally get the ICON sets to work, but the SUNRISE and SUNSETS are always off. I am either off by 2 hours (shows 9:53 AM when it should be something closer to 7:53AM, etc) I note that using commas in the LONG and LAT fields does not show anything at all...it MUST be a period (decimal point). My language settings for the whole computer are set to US ENGLISH for everything. Are they supposed to be periods or commas (the website mentioned in the structions gives them as periods ([URL='http://www.travelmath.com']www.travelmath.com[/URL]). [COLOR=#3366ff] If I wanted to manually edit the .XML file, there are no instructions or tables of values anywhere for the values that are used for such items as <entry name="Timezone">86</entry> [/COLOR] [COLOR=#3366ff] (What is the 86? - this must be coming from some place. There are only 24 (well some say 26) timezones...where does the 86 come from?)[/COLOR] [COLOR=#3366ff] I noticed that each of the existing entries has a different number in this field Where would one find this value?[/COLOR] I really want to get this working and I appreciate all the help - and it seems that someone needs to expand on the instructions manual if the CONFIGURATION TOOL is not working correctly and one must manually create their .XML file. I have deleted my CACHE folder as you instructed, and SADLY the World Weather screen still has no icon/image from the launch screen (see image): Thank again to you all for teaching me how to make the best HTPC ever with this wonderful software.
