Every time I return to TV Guide I have to reset my information.
When I add my information to TV Guide's web-site ... for example: location, provider, time zone etc ...it isn't being stored like it used to be. I am also having the same problem with the Mr. Movie-times webpage. I have to re-enter my same information ... state, city, zip code theater preferences etc. every time I log into that site. How do I save the information?
