I get local news and weather on my Yahoo homepage for Cleveland, OH. I'm not in Cleveland. How do I change my current location to get news and weather for my real location? (Default is already set for my real location). When I try to add a city, I get an error message.

Best to discuss that with your internet service provider. They give you your IP Address, which (unless you are using WiFi) determines the location which is "reported" to websites. The website "reads" the IP Address of your connection to the website's server.
