Ok I have moved to a new house and I cant connect to the Tivo service. It was working fine at my old address. Im using the same router and ISP. Nothing in my setup has changed apart from my location.

The error I get is always "Failed while configuring" any ideas anyone I need my EPG back.

Happy 2017 everyone :)

That sounds like the error message that I was getting a couple of weeks ago when the service was down.. My TiVo is still packed up so can't test it..

Regards,

Sorry to advise the TiVo EPG server seems to be down again. It went for almost a whole week this time. Amazing !

Yes have done the email to TiVo support. I'm sure TiVo's email inbox is filling fast.

Its strange but none of my four TiVo's have had any issues at all. I am with Spark and our TiVo's are in everyday use.

Down for me too, email sent after a manual update failed after the automatic update failed all by itself. Grr.

Also not connecting.

Getting worried, due to the age of my 2 TiVo's.

It has been a brilliant device.

I cannot see why Australia (?) cannot sort this out.

Have you checked under the settings to see if it actually connecting? The EPG can last a week or more so you may not notice it failing in the background at first with normal use.

Best scenario another fix will still be another two to three days away. The previous fixes appear to be made by TiVo US so we can only go by their timetable.

The fault possibly won't get officially logged with them till TiVo NZ/AU are back from leave probably tomorrow (today technically being a public holiday observed) then TiVo US being off work for another day or two after their New Year. They need to diagnose and test before they can release a fix, plus another half day of timezone differences plus however many hours your device waits until it runs the check. Hopefully they resolve it pretty quickly - again.

Been happening a lot lately, and can't see anyone being keen to have to manually fix all the time.

Don't want to ask really, but is anyone privy to the support contract details? How long is this Australian (?) agent contracted to provide the EPG data in NZ for?

Here's the email I received from TiVo support:

We are working with TiVo US and the Hybrid Operations team to get a resolution as soon as possible. As soon as my team have received word that a fix is in place we will let you know.

In the meantime, please do NOT try a Guided Setup or Clear and Delete as you will not be able to use your TiVo until the incident is resolved. You can, however, continue to schedule recordings using the Manual Recording feature, accessible by pressing the TiVo button followed by 7 (seven) on your remote.

Maybe these outages are a gentile hint that the service is soon going to end so you had better get used to it..
