  1. Microsoft News - No Local News for Some Locations


    [Moved from discussions] Since September 1019, the News app hasn’t shown any local news for my location (it displays 'No content available for this location, try again later or try with another location'). If I search for other locations, some show local news (e.g. London) but not for my default location (Ipswich, GB). The same issue is present on all my Windows, IOS and Android devices, even after the most recent News App updates. I sent feedback within the App, but the issue persists. This problem has occurred in the past, but it was usually resolved quickly and it hasn't surfaced for a long time (> 12 months), until now. Can others please let me know if you have had this issue and can Microsoft or others suggest a fix please?

    :)

  2. Microsoft News App - No Local News for Some Locations

    For the last few days, the News app doesn't not show any local news for my location (it displays 'No content available for this location, try again later or try with another location'). If I search for locations, some show local news (e.g. London) but
    not for my default location. The same issue is present on all my Windows, IOS and Android devices even after the News App update (for the PC) today (to version 4.32.12463.0). I sent feedback within the App a few days ago, but the issue persists. This problem
    has occurred in the past, but it was usually resolved quickly and it hasn't surfaced for a long time (> 12 months).

    How to replace old Microsoft Account with a new Microsoft Account

    Hi Hitendra,

    Thank you for posting in Microsoft Community. I understand your concern and I am glad to assist you.

    I would suggest you to switch your Microsoft account to a Local account first and then switch back with a new Microsoft account. Please refer to the following steps:

    Step 1:

    • Type Manage your accounts
      in the search bar and click on it
    • Click on "sign in with a local account instead"
    • Press next and complete the process.
    • If you do not have a local account, leave the credentials blank and proceed.

    Step 2: Now, on the newly converted Local account, follow these steps to add a new MSA.

    1. In the Start search, type "Manage your accounts" and press Enter.

    2. Choose 'Accounts'.

    3. Click on "sign in with a local account instead"

    4. Enter the Microsoft account ID and Password and click Next.

    Hope this post helps. Get back to us for further queries. We are happy to help!
