2.5 installed fine on my Vista Ultimate, runs great in Admin account - won't start at all in standard user accounts. Tivo server doesn't start and trying to open the Tivo desktop results in errors.

Need to run the Tivo services as Admin? Other ideas?

Also, with multiple user accounts, is each account supposed to have its own "now playing" list and set of recordings? Not sure how that would look to one of the Tivos - would it see recordings from all accounts? I noticed that in the install, 2.5 created My TiVo Recordings folder in the Admin user folders - not visible to other accounts.


I have the same question regarding multiple user accounts but couldn't find an answer. Tivo Desktop works great in the user account I used to install the software, but the software is not even visible as a program when I log in under my wife's user account. It would seem odd to have to download the software twice on the same computer??
