It seems that you are using \documentclass{book} in which case
\tableofcontents is typeset on a \thispagestyle{plain} (like all chapter
title pages).  Of course, \thispagestyle{fancy} is not going to work
since you can execute it either before or after the table of contets has
been typeset (\tableofcontents is one command, isn't it?)  In short:
redefine the plain pagestyle (try \fancypagestyle{plain}{...} or
redefine \ps at plain, and/or read the documentation of fancyhdr).

See you,
