I cannot get my Series 2 Dual Tuner Tivo to transfer from PC-to-Tivo. The PCs show up on the Tivo, but the "Watch on this TV" option is gone. There is an option to "Transfer this recording", but when I choose that it says that it will begin transferring once the other shows have finished transferring. The problem is there are no other shows transferring. I know I did not schedule any, but, just to be sure, I have checked the To Do List and there are no shows besides the one I just scheduled to transfer.

Initially this morning, there was a show there set to transfer that I could not delete from the To Do List so I restarted the Tivo. After the restart, it was gone from the To Do List, but I am still unable to transfer programs from my PC-to-Tivo. I even upgraded the Tivo Desktop on one of my computers and still no luck transferring from either PC. I turned off my firewall (which has never been a problem before) and still no change.

There is no problem transferring from Tivo-to-PC so I think it is something internal with the Tivo.

After yet another restart, it started working again. Strange little devices we own and love...

I had this problem too. I rebooted the Tivo and it went away for the TivoServer built into Tivo Desktop 2.5, but it still has this problem with transfers from the TivoServer running on my WindowsHomeServer (WHS) under TivoPublisher. It appears that something in the most recent update has broken parts of the transfer capability.

NOTE: I don't have any S3s in my house. I have one S2DT. One PC running TivoDesktop&Server, andone WHS running TivoPublisher.
