Weather Dock Time lag

from Stardock Forums
Hello,

So I have a problem with the Weather dock included in OD 1.9 plus.
There's near 1 day of time lag.

For exemple it's Monday and I see on the different little block : Today, Tomorrow, Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday.

How I can fix this time lag ?
Also can I change the language ?

thanks

I just installed ObjectDock and have the same problem. It's quite irritating. It seems that the Weather applet is permanently on the US time zone instead of adjusting the displayed day based on my Windows time zone setting.

Absolutely Jargonz, that's probably this. I really hope there's a way to fix it

I was wondering about that too =) "Tomorrow" and "Friday" (should be same) but with different weather reports...

What versions of Object Dock are you currently on? If you have not already make sure that you have uninstalled the free version before installing the Plus version. Also what locations are currently in question?

like he mentioned above...and same for me...object dock 1.9 build 535u.

I have deinstalled free version (it didn't work either) and installed the Plus version.

Locations...well I have another thread going about that...my location in Stuttgart, Germany does not get a feed even though it is available on AccuWeather.com.

Likewise here. Build 1.9 build 535u. Location Australia. I also responded to another thread on this topic about a month ago with no official response or solution.

For Germany please try copy and pasting this into the location: Stuttgart, Germany (Baden-Wurttemberg)

You need to use the whole thing. I am able to get the whole of the feed from this location. I'm hoping this works for you. It is possible that there is a feed problem from the servers of AccuWeather.

Where in Australia are you trying to get weather for?

Hi Seabass

I am in Melbourne, Victoria

I can get the weather but it is a day out and it is extremely difficult to decypher the display to determine what the weather on any particular day should be.

I have the exact same problem with a UK location. Also, it shows a moon when it's a sunny (rare!) morning!

Are there any other weather applets that can be used?

I also have this problem, and I'm in the US.  I finally took it off the dock and started using XML Weather.  It doesn't have the benefits of popups, but at least you can tell what the correct temperature is on the correct day.  I really hope the weather docklet that came with object dock plus gets fixed...sure do miss the popups. :S

For anyone with weather docklet problems. Please make sure that you are on the latest version of the BETA of Object Dock. The Beta contains nessacary updates for the weather docklet. The short story is we changed services and that update contains most of the changes.

Hill you will want to copy and paste this into the location in the properties menu: Melbourne, Australia (Victoria)

I was able to get a feed off of it right away.

 

Please let me know about further concerns.
