This sounds like you are not getting into the My5 app.

From home, scroll,down to the apps and inputs rail.

click on the My5 app.

Can you get into the app?
You may need to setup an account if you have not already.

I've escalated this to Sky and they should be in touch with you soon about it.
Look out for a message from Sky on your email and Sky Community private messages.
Look out for the blue chat bubble within your Sky community.

@Stef9 Sorry to state the obvious but in case you have not already tried have you rebooted your Glass TV. The last time I had similar issues with the spinning wheel on My5 I rebooted my puck and that resolved it.

To do this go to Settings > System Management > Resets & Updates > Restart device (do not do a factory reset). It takes about 3 minutes to completely reboot. You will have a blank screen for the first couple of minutes and then the Sky logo appears.

If you have already done it then apologies but if not it's worth a try.
