Why has the TV Guide stopped working? ›

Check your aerial cable is plugged in securely to your TV or set top box and that the connections are not loose. Check that there is no damage to your aerial cable. Step outside and perform a visual check from the ground to see if your aerial and external cables appear to be in good working order.

Press Guide on your remote. This button is usually labelled as Guide, EPG (Electronic Program Guide), or will show as a box with two horizontal lines inside. You can also get to the TV Guide from the home screen via the menu options at the top of the screen.

These channels use your aerial to populate the now and next part of the guide. If you're seeing the words 'No information available' it sounds like you have an aerial reception issue. Try our steps for a weak or lost signal for help with this. You can also take a look at how to improve your signal.

When your Guide shows “No Data”, it means that the guide information is still loading. This is a normal behaviour when: You just activated your set-top box. You just plugged your set-top box back.

News Corporation sold TV Guide to the United Video Satellite Group, parent company of Prevue Networks, on June 11, 1998, for $800 million and 60 million shares of stock worth an additional $1.2 billion (this followed an earlier merger attempt between the two companies in 1996 that eventually fell apart).

Unlike most other NPCs, the Guide spawns upon world creation, before a house is available. He will, however, move into the first house built. If he is killed, a proper house will need to be built before he can respawn, but has no additional requirements.

If you watch TV using an antenna, disconnect the antenna coaxial cable from the antenna wall socket, then reconnect it. Note: If your TV is connected to a separate over-the-air antenna, you can use the signal strength information to adjust the antenna for increased signal strength and improved HD channel reception.

If your cable box states "No Data Available" on your program guide, disconnect the power from the box for about 30 seconds. Plug the box back up and wait for the time to appear on the front of the box before turning the power to the box back on. This should refresh the program guide data to the box.

This is often a result of either the TV box being powered off, not being properly connected to the TV, or the TV being set to the wrong input. In some cases, if you are not receiving a signal on your TV, it could be a result of a service outage.

First, try manual tunning instead of auto tunning. Second, try adjusting the aerial position and if possible, check the TV with a different aerial. If the issue remains after all of this, maybe the TV needs to get inspected by a service centre as it could be a hardware issue.

Why is there no information on my TV guide? ›

Check Internet Connection: Ensure that your smart TV is connected to the internet and has a stable connection. A reliable internet connection is necessary for accessing up-to-date program guide data. Update Software/Firmware: Make sure your smart TV's software or firmware is up to date.

A no-data connection error can result from a basic software glitch, damaged hardware, or even a network-wide outage that renders the entire mobile network unavailable.

Is the Guide displaying "No Information Available" (error 024)? This problem is typically caused by signal issues or an error in the DISH receiver. Press the red color button or the Options button (depending on your remote type) to view the TV Activity screen.

Many issues, including channels missing from the guide, can be fixed by refreshing (reauthorizing) your receiver. To refresh: Go to My equipment & services. Review the equipment you have and identify the impacted receiver(s).

If you are experiencing picture break up or missing channels, your problem might be a reception problem and not due to interference. Therefore, you may just need to manually re-tune your television, this can often solve a number of common problems.

Finding a specific channel may be difficult if there is ongoing signal construction in a nearby area, or if the digital broadcast signal is weak. This is not an issue with your TV. If the symptom persists, please contact your service provider.
