It seems that restarting resolves the problem. However, adding a new applet results in greyed out preferences just for that applet
** Description changed: Right clicking the weather applet and selecting Preferences results in a greyed out preferences box where nothing can be selected (see attached - screenshot) + screenshot) Restarting resolves this problem.
