First just confirming you entered your MAK number and not "MAK"?
Looking back through the thread, it appears you have 2 TiVo's and a Mac.
Can you transfer between the TiVo's and TiVo to Mac?

First just confirming you entered your MAK number and not "MAK"?

Can you transfer between the TiVo's and TiVo to Mac?
I used 'tivo' and my MAK with and without ':', but no access.
I can transfer between Tivos.
I don't have Tivo Desktop on the Mac. I can install if if it would help.
Ok I think you might be getting MAC and MAK confused.
MAK is the number that TiVo gave you when you purchased the home networking package (unlike MAC it does not have any colons). If you don't have the email any more, It can be found on the TiVo's account and system information page under the Media Access Key option.
That made a difference.. I have been able to transfer a file from one of the Tivos to my PC. So do you have any idea why I am unable to download with Desktop?
Try it on your Mac and see if it is still a PC related issue.
I will install it on the Mac. It appears that Desktop on the Mac will only transfer photos and music and that I need a third party application to be able to transfer Tivo files. I can't get to it until the weekend - I will report back when done. Thanks.
I've decided to settle with spoon feeding the downloads manually and not using the Tivo desktop. When that gets too much, I guess I will have to move across to ICE TV.. Thanks for getting me this far.. Cheers.
