When do you think the old My Yahoo page will be able to get all my favorites back on the TV listings? The Beta version is just too cumbersome – only shows two timeslots at a time, takes forever to get back to My Yahoo, sometimes not at all. I wasn’t unhappy with the old version. Please bring it back to full functionality.

Just read your comment about fixing the TV listing in the original My YAHOO – not so. I still only get about 15% of the listings I get in the BETA version, but I can not use the Beta version and still be able to access the MY YAHOO hame page on my PDA (HP IPAQ 2795B). It will only connect on the original. Help.

The new TV listings are two hours off i.e. 4pm programs are in reality 6pm programs. How do I correct this ??

Thanks

Yay! I just found this blog and JUST found out I can change back to my original yahoo and also get the TV listings! I’ve been hating the new Beta look, and REALLY hating how the TV listings were handled in it. I want to be able to see them quickly and easily and not have to scroll forever just to find out what’s on TV tonight! Thanks for fixing that! I’m off to switch back to my old yahoo style! Yippee!

Is part of your fix going to restore “ALL” of my favorite channels? Right now it only shows about half of the ones selected.

I have tried to update my tv listings but when I try to enter my service provider (antenna/rabbit ears) I can’t seem to find a place to enter it. I do agree with the comment “Please allow users to select default time…” I too want to see my time frame first. Thanks for the new beta.

James, I’m not here to beat you up, enough people have done that already. I just found this post, so I am going to repeat what I said in your site survey on the new My Page. I use the news mainly, but the TV listings is very important to me also. The old listing was/is cumbersome to use, but it got the job done. I print about 30 channels daily from 0900am to 0530am. I’d print more chan’s, but then the listing would not support a 1 page print [hum, 55 lines per page, go figure]. If I printed 31 chan’s, it would do two things, 1) print a second page, and 2) cut 1 chan out, about 3/4ths the way down on the list. Since you brought the list back, I can’t get past chan 39. Chan’s 40-67 are listed as favorites, but will not show up. I went thru the FAQ’s, and it said to go to ‘Top of My Page, Click Select Page, Click Add/Delet. I can not find anything on the top of either My pages that allows me to ‘Select Page’, and I still don’t know if this [change refresh rate] will cure the situation. If this option is in fact there and I am just overlooking it, I’d bet that it is actually called something other than ‘Select Page’, and whoever wrote the FAQ blew it. I know how easy it is to type out a thought, but we can’t type as fast as we think, and can leave out a word or two. That’s why it’s nice to have another person read what we do to see if it makes sense to a dip like me. Overall, I am normal [depending on who you ask] and don’t like change, but more importantly, have learned ‘if it aint broke, don’t fix it’. The new page looks good, but the old page is by far better to use.

Very obvious that you are still at the “work in progress” development stage. But I like what you’ve done so far so keep working! Please allow users to select “default” time frame to view. No matter what time of day I look at the schedule, I’m only interested in “prime time” for my favorite channels – so take me there as I enter the module but continue to allow the “now” selection if I choose to see current listings.

Personally, I only have one issue with the TV Listings changeover… Hurry up and restore my “record to TiVo” connection!
