Manually update program info

[jjp007]

After almost a week of no power and no internet connection due to hurricane Ike my Tivo HD hasn't updated the program information, of course.
Is there a way that I can manually update it now that I am back online and have power?

TIA.

TIA.You could go into the phone & network settings and force a connection to TiVo.

That should cause your TiVo HD to download new guide data. However it will still take a few hours to index it before it starts scheduling your shows in the ToDo list.

As a follow-up.

I am in Houston. Have a Sony Series 1 (Lifetime Subscription) and a TiVo Series 2 Single Tuner (Monthly Subscription). Neither were updated for 10 days due to loss of power. Got power back Wednesday (it's now Sunday). Have been trying to force manual update and nothing. Have tried KS 57 and multiple other options listed in the Series 2.

Anyone have any ideas or suggestions? Financially we can't buy new units.

Thanks for any and all suggestions/ideas.

Does it boot normally? Kickstart 57 has nothing to do with downloading the program data - for that you go into the phone and network settings and tell it to make the daily call. If you are using the phone line, you may want to try the different local numbers, or even try dialing them yourself to see if you get a modem tone. Its possible the storm knocked out the phone service or power on the Tivo end.
