Hi all

Been having this issue for a while, when browsing a website e.g. websites to show nearest stores etc by using your location the location does not work.

It never pops up asking if this website can use my location or anything like that it just said failed to get your location. Tried different websites etc. Google Chrome works fine and is only Safari that has the issue.

I have turned off Location services in system preferences and back on again - also ticked Safari off and back on and nothing seems to fix this.

Also been into Safari settings and made sure the options is set to 'Ask once per day for website' regarding location services.

Has anyone had the same issue and did you manage to fix it..... I cannot be bothered to wipe my MacBook Pro and reload it.
