TV guide will not show listings on my Sony digital TV

I have a Sony model KDL-32BXR6 that the TV Guide first showed no listings this past weekend. Last night when I entered the Guide the screen displaying the Setup/Display Setup Progress came up stating "In Progress". Same thing this morning. Something must have changes with the input signal if this occurred with two different sets.

CABLE BOX will be needed for all TV's after the 16 of October 2012 .you can use a cable card if your TV has a slot for one . you can thank the cable co for that . they also have a digital adapter you could get check best buy or eBay

please do check the settings of the gigapocket for the mean time and i'll try to do something to help you out.

Unfortunately you haven't said which exact model of Sony tv you have, but there were a lot of their models which didn't behave correctly after the digital retune. In most cases this led to a digital tv freeze.

The official advice is to first try the retune again; from experience I'd add that you need to try it at least twice and to do so at different times of the day in case there is temporary unplanned signal disruption or other environmental factors.

If that does not work then you need to contact Sony directly for advice on 0870 511 1999.

Please cut and paste the following web address into your browser and you'll see a list of Freeview equipment which is known to have incompatibilities with the retune (you need to have Adobe Reader installed). Unfortunately the list has proven to be somewhat less than comprehensive.

I hope that you have found my advice to be of assistance and in return ask only that you remember to rate my answer.

Symptoms / Customer Description
TV Guide issues.
Example:
1. Not getting the correct info, or no information.
2. TV Guide giving double channels.
3. TV Guide grid comes up but no information.
[Primary Symptom Code: 118X ]

Solution

TV Guide information comes from the Host Station.

1. If no information on some channels or incorrect information not TV issue, but station not giving any information or incorrect information.

2. If grid comes up, but no TV Guide Info could be
siginal issue.

3. Double stations showing up. Unfortunately double listing is the way it's going to be. They have to send out all possible OTA listings for the area. You can hide the channels that you are not getting.

For these type of issues
Please have the customer call our Customer Support Line 800-222-7669
Our Call Center Rep. will fill out an investigation form with data pulled from the TV. These reports will be sent to Gem Star for their investigation, and the Call Center will get
back to the customer.

Please clarify what you are getting. Is the Guide Plus coming up with no programs listed? If so, it may be that you lost power and the set has to be turned off overnight to "reload" the program schedule. If that is not the problem, have you recently changed to digital through a digital receiver? You need to have your analog antenna connected to receive the program listings. You may have to install a splitter to have both the digital antenna and the analog antenna connected. I have an RCA with Guide Plus and ran into the same problem, but solved it by reconnecting my analog antenna and leaving the set off overnight to reload.

The tv guide is coming from your cable not the tv.

Connect up your mp3 player to the computer through the usb cable. When it shows up on My Computer, click on it and the list of files already on it shows up. The operation guide is there in lots of languages.

1. Manually scan all channels on your TV with your TV remote and write down the channels and network shown:
(sample: 119.2 C-SPAN2 digital channel).
2. Go to Edit Channels and find the icon for C-SPAN2 (about icon 261 in my zip code). Manually change the channel from Off to On, Insert the frequency, and optionally insert the number you want the channel to show in your channel listing ( or move it manually later).

I have about 10 to add each time I reset my recorder.
