I don't know if anyone has had this problem:

When I am using Tivo Transfer recently, the Shows that I want to transfer are showing up in the Active Transfer window yet they seem to be stuck in the "waiting" mode. I was able to transfer shows without a problem until yesterday when I noticed that I had shows that had already been transferred into my Tivo Recordings folder show up again in the Active Transfers window.

Is there any way to reset this? I am also not able to transfer any new recordings since then.

Have you tried restarting the TiVo and/or the Mac?

There's an independent way to see if the TiVo might be "wedged" when it comes to transfers. Go to the Phone & Network Settings screen on the TiVo. On that screen you'll see the IP address for the TiVo. Open Safari or Firefox on your Macintosh and put https:// (note the "s") followed by the IP address of the TiVo into the address bar of the browser and press the RETURN key. You may see a certificate error, but go ahead and continue. You should be prompted for a user name and password. Use "tivo" (without the quotes) as the user name and your 10-digit media access key as the password. If this goes right, you should see a browser representation of your Now Playing List -- from where you can also try to download a recording to see if it works (independent of using TiVo Transfer)

Ok, I suffer this issue too. I have tried using the web browser method to do the download from the browser representation. I get an error message: Server Busy - too many downloads.
The trouble is - no downloads or uploads are in progress when I get this.

How can I reset the server status? Powering off and powering up again has had no effect.

Usually a restart of the TiVo will clear the "Server Busy" unless there is a download in progress. Does anything show with regard to transfers in the To Do List on the TiVo? (press the "2" key on the TiVo Central Main Menu to get there quickly)

Make sure that transfers on the TiVo are "enabled" and the TiVoToGo status on the System Information screen shows "a,a,a"

The transfer status can be shown by going into the Now Playing List and pressing the zero key followed by a Thumbs Down. This brings up the Advanced Troubleshooting screen (with Transfers Enabled at the top) as well as lists all the TiVo boxes on your account
