Hi All,
I've been having the same problem described at the post in the link below but wanted to solicit advice from this forum.
forums.support.roxio.com/index.php?showtopic=52560&st=0#entry296319
Although my issue is almost identical to the OP's there, I'll redescribe the problem that I have. 4 days ago, I was using the Mac2Tivo application to transfer some files to my Tivo (as I often do), but the transfer didn't start. The folder had about 10 mpeg2 videos (I routinely convert files to mpeg2 using VisualHub, because it makes the transfer faster). Although the blue light on the front of the Tivo came on, instead of transferring, the Tivo told me that it would start transferring after other transfers had completed. The problem was that there were no other transfers pending at the time.
I was getting ready to implement some of the fixes suggested by the folks at the Roxio forum, but it seems that the Tivo thinks there is still a pending transfer and the blue light has been on for 4 days. I've deleted the pending transfer (the one I set up that was "waiting"), and I've restarted, both through Messages and Setting as well as by disconnecting the power for 30+ seconds. I've also tried disconnecting the network. Nothing seems to "flush" the phantom transfer.
Anyone have a clue what's going on? I should mention that one possibility is that Mac2Tivo didn't seem to like it when I moved the shared directory from one folder to another after I had already started the application (but before transfer), as it instantly had trouble seeing the number of files in the folder. Not sure if that's important but I figured I'd give all the details.
Thanks in advance for any help!
