Why was the Weather Channel App changed?

The new weather Channel App for the touchscreen really sucks now. I used to have it as the "Screensaver" because it showed everything all in one place. Now its completly useless. You have to make different selections to see useful info instead of having it all on one screen. You used to be able to walk by, glance at the screen and see everything you needed or wanted to know. Is there any way of getting the old app back on the touchscreen?

Why is the Weather Channel app blocked in OSX?

Every attempt I've made this evening to install a The Weather Channel app on this computer has been blocked.
The app is fine on iOS..
What gives??

Because iOS App's for iDevices are not made to run in OS X.
Also > The Weather Channel App for Windows with Current Conditions, Local Alerts, and Radar, will not work because it is only for Windows desktops.
You can however get the > The Weather Channel Widget for your OS X Desktop and then easily access Weather.com from it.

HT4623 I installed ios7 on my iPad 2 yesterday, this morning it wouldn't open the weather channel app. I thought maybe I should power it down. When I held down on the power button the screen went black and now it won't do anything. What do I do now?

Try a reset: Press and hold both Sleep/Wake and Home buttons until the Apple logo appears.

Application Permissions Request The Weather Channel App

Beginning yesterday 5/8/2012 The white screen pops up showing Application Permissions Request. TWCStandard is requesting permission to use the following resources. There is a box with location and a check mark. there is a box with connections and a check mark. A save button and a Details button. This pops up everytime I click on the weather icon. Is there a way to keep this from popping up every time? It did not used to. I have uninstalled and re-installed the weather app 3 times and 1 time in safe mode. I have edited my permission several times. Any suggestion would be helpful.

did you ever figure out a solution for this? our problem is that when we unlock the blackberry, the permissions screen is ready and waiting even though we have not tried to open the weather channel app.

I am using the weather channel app and don't have any sound. The sound button is at a Hugh level. Can anyone help?

Ipad2 no sound with weather channel app. Settings indicate sound level is up. Can anyone help? Thanks

You havn't got notifications muted have you ? Depending on what you've got Settings > General > Use Side Switch To set to notifications can be muted either by the switch on the right-hand side of the iPad or via the taskbar (whatever the switch is set to control, the other function is controlled via the left end of the taskbar).

Weather Channel App Question?

When I open the Weather Channel App on my 8330 it always goes to a screen that says "The waether channel is requesting changes to its application control permissions"
How can I stop this? What settings is it looking for?
Thanks

Hi and Welcome to the Forums!
The settings it is looking for should display when you continue into the permissions screen. You "stop it" by allowing the settings it is requesting. If you do not allow the settings it is requesting, it will forever nag you with the request because the application is coded to require those settings. To change that, you'd have to contact the app developer.
The only caveat here is if you are subject to an IT Policy. It may be that a setting it requires is not accessible to you due to IT Policy restrictions. In which case, there's no way for you to grant the setting it is requesting, and it will forever nag you. To change that, you'd have to talk to your BES administrators about changing the IT Policy.
Good luck!

Weather Channel App. Uses lots of background data

The Weather Channel app uses alot of background data, if I restrict background data, it says it may cause an app to stop working when only mobile available. Does anyone know of another weather app that would not use up so much data? Or is there a setting on the weather app itself that would help use less data?

I had the same problem. I switched to the "Go weather" app. it takes up less ram while running in the backround and it gives you the option to choose how often it will update the weather. Most weather apps will update every 10-15 minutes and so that will eat your data. this allows you to update manually whenever you check the weather so it doesn't use your data much, if at all. Hope that helps

Can't download weather channel app to first gen iPad

Question: What must I do to download the weather channel app to my first gen iPad with iOS 5.1.1. I keep receiving message "must update to iOS 6.0 or higher"

Try this similar procedure that a user did on an iPad 1 to get Netflix.

You should be able to install it. If the iBooks app isn’t in the purchase history of the iTunes account that is being used on it then try downloading the current version on your computer’s iTunes so that the app is in it. Then on your iPad go to the Purchased tab in the App Store app and see if you can download an older compatible version of it

Installed The Weather Channel, but icon is missing

I just purchased the Ipad2. I installed The Weather Channel app, but after it downloaded, the icon is missing. When I go to the App Store, it says it's installed. I tried searching for it and it doesn't come up in the list.

Have you tried swiping from screen to screen as well as using the Spotlight search feature suggested above? You can also look in any folders that you may have on your various screens.
I think that in the event that your iPad is entirely filled with apps, folders and all of your screens are full as well, it is possible that the icon will not be visible on the iPad. You could connect the iPad to your iTunes library and search the Apps area and the search screens there.

IPad 1 will not download apps. This just started. Looking to get the weather channel.

Having trouble downloading a app. This problem just started. It will let me go into the app store but comes up blank. Trying to get the weather channel.

Have you tried logging out of your account via Settings > Store and logging back in and seeing if that makes any difference ? You could also try a reset and see if they download after the iPad has restarted : press and hold both the sleep and home buttons for about 10 to 15 seconds (ignore the red slider), after which the Apple logo should appear - you won't lose any content, it's the iPad equivalent of a reboot.
If an app is over 20 meg in size then you won't be able to download it over 3G, you will need to either use wifi on your iPad or download it to your computer's iTunes and then sync it across.

Why isn't the weather channel working?

We have had the weather channel on our iPad, but it stopped working today.

Check this link. It appears they have had issues today: http://downdetector.com/status/the-weather-channel

With Firefox 3.6.10 I cannot run The Weather Channel's interactive or full-featured maps. Anyone know why?

I have no problem loading The Weather Channel's web site but when I click the map for my locale to enable the interactive map, or map in motion, or full-featured map, I get a blank screen -- although the time-log loop for the interactive or map in motion displays.

Thanks to those who provided help, but the tips didn't work for me.
I just applied the latest Flash update, however, and now the weather.com map-in-motion finally works for me, again.

What is with the black batch script box appearing on the Weather Channel? See Pix's.

I first noticed these Friday 06-01-2012 whenever I change to the Weather Channel (WC), it only happens when on WC.
The first pix shows it in mid-update. See the last character it is a zero. Every 15secs it tries to update itself.That last character will roll alpha-numerically until it stops at the bracket character ( ] ), then it does it again 15secs. later.
I was unable to get a pix of the first script box because it changes to fast, but it starts out:
[ T for Weather Channel...some type of code.....] Then goes to what I show in the above pix's.
I have tried both the STB Auto-Recovery, and STB reset, neither one will stop it from appearing.
The only way to get rid of it is either to shut the TV or the STB off, but it comes right back when I want to view the WC.
My release is 1.9, and the build is 10.95. Is this happening because the STB is trying to update to 1.9.1?
Does anyone have an answer?

Solved!
Go to Solution.

I'm pretty sure that is coming from your TV. use your tv remote or the tv menu from the front panel of your TV (not the fios remote) and look in the menu for your closed captioning and turn it off.
you may even have a CC button on your original tv remote (the fios one looks different, so I don't think this is coming from the set top box)

I can't open the Weather Channel's interactive radar map that I've always been able to open in the past.

Up until a few days ago, I've always been able to view The Weather Channels Interactive Local Weather Map for my area. Now it won't open the map and asks if I want to refresh. It still doesn't open. The site works fine on my other computers.
Just wondering if it was something I did by accident that changed something.

If you have Flash Block installed, try uninstalling it. When I had the same issue, I first tried white listing the Weather Channel site in the Flash Block options. When that didn't work, I tried disabling Flash Block. When that didn't work, I uninstalled Flash Block, and the maps worked fine. I'm guessing that there is some incompatibility between the most recent versions of Adobe Flash, Flash Block, and the Weather Channel site.
