I am in New Zealand, where Stellarium works fine and matches the sky.

But then I try to switch the program to another city to see how the sky looks, the time is way out.

For example in Chicago the sun is rising about 200, noon position about 600 and setting at 1100.

If I set to London the sun rises around 2000 and sets around 500, all very low in the southern sky as though one is near the Arctic circle.

Tokyo rises about 1000 and sets at 2000

I've uninstalled and reinstalled but no luck.

Am I missing something fundamental here? Seems this should be an easy reset.

Many thanks for any help!!!
