Stupid TiVo

My power went out Aug. 30th and ever since then I guess TiVo hasn't been able to connect to update the programming. Today I get this message every time I try to use it: "There is only 3 days left of programming...."

I spent over 6 hours today looking up everything online I could possibly find to try and fix the problem and nothing. Right now I am dumping everything - clearing and deleting everything and then I'm going to have to go through the initial setup again. ARRRGGHHH. So frustrating.

That's awful. Dh and kids use TiVo all the time. I can't begin to understand the whole thing. Not that I want to either, I guess if there's ever a show I want to watch and DH isn't around to program the dang thing, I'll learn then.

I hope you get it up and going soon.

I don't have a phone so I can't get TiVO I have to use a DVR which is Okay but TiVO sounds alot easier. If I try to tape new episodes of "The Soup" and set it to record every week...it will tape EVERY episode ALL WEEKEND! We all know how many times it plays...ugh...so I set it at the beginning of the week and make sure it just records once!

Sorry about your troubles...hope it works out for you.
