    I have the EXACT same problem same model going to the 250gb disk and Satilite--- no channel list after several attempts after an upgrade to version 8. I have tried a couple of other zip codes ( although mine used to work fine two years ago) and that has not worked.


    Is this zip code the problem or is it a bad image from Weaknees? I live in San Diego area is there a zip code we know that works?

      Mine used to work fine three years ago, so I'm not sure what's changed. In any case, using a nearby ZIP seemed to fix things. Other things you might try - use a ZIP code from a completely different state, or choose the other satellite provider (DirecTV if you have Dish, or vise-versa) in your ZIP. If either of those get you up and running, go back and enter your real ZIP.

        I am working now thanks to the tips above --- thanks!

        Here is my 2 cents on the problem:

        There must be a bug with a new disk install shipping with version 7, upgrading immediately to version 8 and setting up for Dish Network all in the same subsequent sessions - IMHO.

        If someone gets the symptoms above of no channels, here are two things to try that will probably fix it:

        1. Try another local zip code or
        2. Say you have digital cable and let it finish DLing/index then go back and say redo for Satellite and Dish Network - this is what worked for me for whatever reason.

        Dish Network and TiVo companies have not been the best of friends lately anyway. ($70 million law suit)

              Problems with getting channel list

              I am having identical problems as described above. I have a TCD24008A TIVO unit trying to work with a DishNetwork 311 box. I replace the harddrive and am able to get the setup screen but for some reason, no channels get listed. In fact, I am not prompted to list whether I have premium channels, etc.

              I live in the 70115 area code. I emailed tech support. They suggested the same old things as noted above and I have been without success. My machine has frozen a few times after I have completed the whole set up.

              I am going to try different zip codes or perhaps try with "digital cable" and see what happens.

                This seems to be a problem with older OS versions and TiVo's servers. What OS do you have? Have you given it a chance to update?
