    Dealing with a persistent wrong location on your Yahoo homepage can indeed be frustrating, but don't worry—I'm here to help you troubleshoot and hopefully resolve this issue.

    First off, make sure that your device's location settings are accurate. Sometimes, browsers or devices use location services to determine your whereabouts. Check whether your device's location settings are turned on and set to the correct location. If they are, try turning off the location settings, restarting your device, and then turning them back on.

    Next, ensure that your Yahoo account settings have the right location information. Log in to your Yahoo account and navigate to your account settings. Look for any location-related settings that might be affecting the information displayed on your homepage. Update your location information if needed.

    If the issue persists, it's possible that Yahoo's geolocation feature is malfunctioning. Try clearing your browser's cache and cookies, then restart your browser. This might refresh the page's data and potentially fix any glitches causing the wrong location to appear.

    If none of these steps work, you might want to reach out to Yahoo's customer support for more specialized assistance. They can look into your account settings and help troubleshoot the issue further. Sometimes, technical issues occur on the backend that require their intervention to resolve.

    Remember, technology can sometimes be a bit finicky, but with a bit of patience and persistence, you'll likely be able to get your Yahoo homepage to accurately show your location again. Good luck, and I hope your Yahoo experience gets back on track soon!

    The Weather location on the My Yahoo homepage shows Babylon NY. It should show Sayreville NJ. please correct this as I have critical health needs and ordering medical products is adversely affected and hinders processing. Please correct this as soon as possible before i have an emergency. Thank you.

    Same thing is happening to me. Shows me Atlanta, and I live in San Diego. Called Yahoo and they directed me to this page. They have no idea and really do not care. Just have to change it if I want to see my weather forecast.

    I'm tired of having to fix my location on my homepage every time I go to it. I change the location to the right one. And then when I go back to it the location is change to the wrong one again. This issue needs to be fixed.

  • Jeff Segal commented  ·   ·  Report

    Every time I go to MY YAHOO homepage. The weather location keeps showing that my location is Gilbert AZ. I live in Tempe AZ. Not in Gilbert AZ. And I change the location to the correct location. But every time I come back to MY YAHOO Homepage it has gone back to showing Gilbert AZ for my location. Which is the wrong location for where I live. This needs to be fixed.
