I had this problem. After running tvtime in terminal, it looked like I didn't have access to the tvtime configuration files located at ~/.tvtime.

I ended up changing group ownership of the folder from root to my username, and then it started to work.

Yep this was the problem! Thanks, I just did sudo chown -R username:username ~/.tvtime and now it works!
