I think i found a way, may or may not work, my tmapi wouldnt connect, i closed target manager, form processes. restarted the ps3 using console manager ccapi 2.60. and tmappi worked again. i used console manager because, when i shut down my ps3 from the xmb it was still on, idk why. try that. it should work. but i'm not sure if it 100% will work for you.
