TV guide abruptly stopped receiving information

TV guide worked fine for months, then one morning, it just said it had no information and hasn't worked since.
When we turn on the tv, it goes directly to the tv guide screen which says it has no information.

Off-Air reception (Antenna) of TV Guide comes from a supplier called Rovi (formally known as Macrovision, Gemstar). They have supplied your local CBS affiliate with a TV Guide application known as SCTE 127 or VBI in MPEG. Follow these steps until you have found a solution to the TV Guide - No Information Available.

1. Check to see if your local CBS station is coming in clearly not tiling.

2. Reset your TV Guide through your TV Guide Menu, for more information copy and paste the link below. (What usually works for me is setting up the guide by putting in 99999 for the zip code then answer all other questions. After it says your TV will receive the guide in 24 hours then setup the guide as you normally would with your zip code).

3. Contact your local CBS affiliate engineer and see if they are having problems with the TV Guide transport stream i.e. SCTE 127 or VBI in MPEG

FYI if you get your service from a Cable TV company they will have to pass this information through their system commonly referred to as Passing PIDS.

In order to best assist you I will need a little more information. Have you tried checking the cables running from the receiver to the TV? Are there any devices connected between the receiver and your TV? Also what type cables are connecting the receiver to the television?

I own a Logiech wireless keyboard & mouse combo (Model No. MK 250). The keyboard works fine. the mouse has a red light and just stops working abruptly. I have tried another wireless mouse and it works...

Try resyncing the mouse, especially if you just replaced the batteries. Press the sync button on the receiver and then the one on the bottom of the mouse.

Have Warning message on DVD 'Your Guide Plus has not received TV Listings. Check your host channel.' What do I do?

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.

RCA 46" LCD TV - HDMI Stopped working overnight

I don't mean to sound ignorant, but can I assume you have already checked your Source Selection just incase someone hit a different button on shutdown ?
Sometimes when I just set the remote down can sometimes change a setting on the TV, I thought maybe the same may have happened to you too.
