Your Media Access Key 

TiVo DVRs connected to your home network share a Media Access Key. Your Media Access 
Key keeps your TiVo recordings secure, and prevents them from being played or transferred 
outside your home network.

Your Media Access Key is tied to your TiVo service account, and you’ll be prompted to enter it 
when you install TiVo Desktop on your computer. To find your Media Access Key:

From any DVR connected to your home network, go to the TiVo Central

Imagine you’re on a business trip, on a 

long flight, or stuck in a hotel room. 

Instead of doing the crossword or watching a 

bad movie, you could be watching your 

favorite programs on your laptop.

Even at home, imagine watching a cooking 

show in the kitchen. Or an auto repair 

program in the garage. With the TiVoToGo 

feature, the possibilities are as endless as 

your imagination.
