HTML background color

I have not used treehouse for a while and have recently returned and I am currently on CSS. In the video it asks me to delete the background color and to align the text to the center. However when I do these things and then go to preview, there is no change. Am I doing something wrong? Here is my CSS:

a {
  text-decoration: none;
}

#wrapper {
  max-width: 940px;
  margin: 0 auto;
  padding: 0 5%;
}

#logo {
  text-align: center;
  margin: 0;
}

I have just tried editing words in my index such as the footer and after saving, there seems to be no change to my preview. Also I've noticed it seems to ask me to choose ports now when I preview, could this have something to do with it?

UPDATE: so after trying workspaces using chrome, workspaces was finally able to save properly. It seems that the issue only happened with Firefox, has anyone else had this issue?

I just tried this exercise with Firefox and it worked fine, although I had to use the default port (80) as none of the the others would work - received 'Workspace Unavailble' message in the new tab. I haven't tested enough to see if has anything to do with any installed extensions.

I'm having same issue using Safari. I won't save properly. I was thinking maybe the server is overloaded or something. I can't finish the exercise since the console is blank and couldn't do anything. I'll come back to it next time.
