So, somehow yesterday my Tivo Roamio "lost" its activation connection to my profile on Youtube after I exited it from being in it for a couple hours.. I can go into Youtube just by clicking on the app, BUT, it just goes into plain non-logged in Youtube, and won't allow me to log in (arrow to the left will NOT go to the menu), OR go through activation.

I'm still running TE3. How can I fix this? Yes, I've rebooted, but it made no difference. I need to reset Youtube.

Ok, just got off chat with Tivo:

Is this fix going out to all or must we each call and request a fix?
Thanks.

Thanks.

I don't know, BUT, I highly suggest you call or chat and ask them to enter a support ticket for you.

I called last night. They ran me through removing the YT app, run the online update, adding the app back, and seeing if it's fixed.

It didn't fix it so she told me it's now escalated and to watch my email for further information when they fix it. So we'll wait and see.

Thanks all for your help.

UPDATE:
Ok, go into Youtube, and QUICKLY before the Home screen completely fills out, hit the LEFT arrow twice FAST. It'll then go to the Lefthand menu.

Same for right arrow. Scroll down to whatever you want, say Library, and quickly hit RIGHT arrow twice FAST before it's all rendered on the screen to get to "Watch Later" or what you want.
