      You need to append the port to the address. By default, MM2 runs on port 8080, so you want to load up 'http://localhost:8080'…

      A Life? Cool! Where can I download one of those from?

        Why exactly are you using chromium anyway? There is no need for that (if you do not use a Pi 1)

        We're all stories in the end. Just make it a good one, eh?

          Im just going by dyan J peirces guide. Unfortunatley still having issues. When I go to http://localhost:8080 via the browser I get an error that it cant be reached. I’m guessing I just need to wipe it out and find an updated version of code for the RPI3.

            Rather than looking for other people’s write-ups, why not follow the tried and true method that’s on the actual project page?
            https://github.com/MichMich/MagicMirror

            There is an 'Automatic Installer' section, as well as a 'Manual Installation' if things fail.

                @KirAsh4 this worked GREAT. Thank you I have it up and running. Just one more question. Do you know how to change the orientation of the display. it comes up on the mirror horizontally(Clock in the top left corner, forecast in the right) , I would like vertically so I could flip the TV on its side behind the mirror. Thanks for any input.

                  @Jpseck89 As in Configuring the Raspberry Pi on the github wiki.

                  Rotating the screen

                  edit /boot/config.txt

                  sudo nano /boot/config.txt
                  

                  Add the following line:

                  display_rotate=1
