Bing Desktop Background Images Do Not Load Or Show

So I downloaded Bing desktop about a year ago hoping to get a new desktop background daily, but no luck so far.

When I drop down the wallpaper tab on the app the view has a constant running ellipsis ( ..... ) that is just an infinite loop. It never seems to get the wallpapers.

On the same note, the tabs Trending, Trending Images, and Trending Videos are showing the message "Sorry, the content is not available for now." Weather and Top News tabs are showing content and it is current.

Things I've tried thus far:

1. Re-installed a few times.
2. Made sure to check the option to set Bing as desktop background.
3. Deleted some folders as suggested with other similar issues.
4. Allowed Bing through the firewall.

System Info:
Windows 8.1 Pro
Bing v.1.3.470.0
