Bug Description

Preferences does not allow toggle to any other than default service or Yahoo. There are two boxes for Wunder... and World Weather Online; however, even if you input your API key and hit activate, nothing happens, cannot click the box to the left of that
little window to mark it as chosen. Nothing happens. Also, preferences almost refuses to close. I love the applet and used it before on Ubuntu 12.04 without these problems, but when I did a full install of Ubuntu 12.04 on this machine, this time it refuses to adjust. Would love to have it. thanks

after boot, my-weather-indicator does not come up. I am using 12.10 with all maintenance applied. I also use 13.04 and same results.

Same as above. Running MWI v 0.6.1.2.quantal.1-1 on Ubuntu 12.10. When I first installed all seemed ok but when checking forecast discovered that earlier activation of World Weather Online was no longer working and MWI had defaulted back to Open Weather which shows no detail. No activation is available for World weather Online. I exited the indicator to try to run from terminal but this didn't work (command not found) and now wont start again from Dash. It it working fine on another machine running 12.04 LTS
