I use zap2it.com for online listing (C band). But just recently I've noticed
the channels show up in a different order and, more importantly, I cannot
get it to list over 20 channels at a time (I've checked the "list all channels"

The order is okay in mine, but I also cannot get the page to display
more than 20 channels. It was fine a couple of days ago.

I had the same problem. I've worked around it by setting my display to
50 channels at a time. That's enough to display all of the channels
that I'm watching so it's okay until the problem is fixed.

Thanks, that helped. I'd still like All Channels to work, though.
I dropped them a note using the Feedback link at the bottom of the
page. Hope the rest of you who are having problems will do the same.

from the dropdown to no avail). There are a *lot* of channels on C band, so
going through them at twenty at a time is pretty unusable. Anyone else having
this problem? (I've also deleted cookies and tried different browsers, but

I used to like Zap2it because I could set the order of channels
(which I can't do with Excite) a see four hours at a time (versus
three with Excite).
But for the last couple of months Zap2it has been so painfully slow
that I usually give up waiting a for a page transition and load up
Excite.

Yeah, sometimes when I'm doing a search, it actually times out on
the web server before anything comes back. I was trying to get some
info the other day, and it took forever.

It's not on my end; I've got broadband.

Yes, though in my case it will show 50, but no more. It's annoying,
but as another poster said, these kinds of things happen once in a
while to zap2it and always seems to get fixed.

I notice that that happens every now and then. Seems to be at the end of
the year. My guess is they do upgrades.
Either way, it should settle down after a day or so. I use canoe.ca
which uses the zap generator. I couldn't get more than 20 a page for
about two days last week. It's all fine now.

I'm not having that problem, but I've been wondering if anyone else, can no
longer make a bookmark... that will bring up your customized listing? For

That function is working fine for me. I have a bookmark in my Firefox
bookmarks bar, and when I click it, it goes right to my personalized
listings.

Thanks, Patty! I'll cancel my account and start over then; maybe that will
work. They never replied to my e-mail question about using Netscape.

Thanks to whomever suggested trying Display 50 Channels. All Channels
still isn't working, but at least now I can see 50 instead of only 20.
|
about 6 wks. now, I have to click through... 3 times... to get my schedule.
I've cleared everything [cookies, old bookmarks, etc.] and nothing works, so
before I cancelled that sign-in name and started over... to possibly get the
"same thing"... I thought I'd ask if any of you are *still* able to access
your TV listings directly? TIA...
