Tivo and Cable Cards

if they all failed I'd check the Tivo and make sure the cable card slot is working

ClueLess - What Andrew said.  I've got three Tivos with Cox, all are working, although I had to swap out a tuning adapter that went bad recently.  I'm assuming you also have a tuning adapter.

Call TiVo technical support and ask for a cable card specialist.  They can have you check the TiVo diagnostic screens and determine if there is a problem with the TiVo.  Of my three TiVo boxes, I did get a defective one and TiVo had to swap it out.  I'm assuming your box is still under warranty.

My TIVO began complaining about not communicating with the tuning adaptor on Thursday. I switched to a new tuning adaptor on Friday, but nothing changed. After many calls to tech support, an upper level support person said the identifiers for the cable card and tuning adaptor were not correct, and they were mis-matched. The problem persists.

However, other TIVO users might like to know that they can watch anything, uninterrupted, by recording the channel then watching from the recording. That's how we watched the bedlam game. Also, streaming is not effected from sources like Netflix and Amazon Prime.

TIVO Support, I'm guessing you're in OKC?  Me too, and I had the exact same problem starting Thursday evening.  Phone support was no help.  I tried a new tuning adapter from the Cox store to no avail and ended up with technicians out on Saturday.  They tried a new cable card (couldn't get it activated) and another new tuning adapter.  The techs said they rarely get calls on these but that day there were 15.  My problem is still unresolved today (Sunday).  The tuning adapter does a long blink, pause, then a sequence of two blinks and a pause.  Repeat ad nauseam. 

This sounds like a Cox problem.

Yes, same issue here since Thursday.  Tried new cards, new adapters etc...  Had a tech come to my door on Sunday only to tell me there is an "outtage" and there is no prediction on when the problem will be resolved.  Any new info on this problem?  I can't watch hardly anything.  jgriffin17@cox.net

Hi Everyone,

Our video team is still troubleshooting the Tuning Adapter (TA) issue in the OKC area. From what I understand, something is interfering with the two-way communication between the TA and the Cox network. That's all the information we have at this time. We'll update you as soon as we get new information. Thank you for your patience!

Thanks, Becky.  It would be nice to get this resolved as it has been going on for 5 days now.

I am having the same problem since Thursday (with multiple Tivos)

Please fix this asap
