							Sky Go on Ipad repeatedly says "we've found a different Sky Q Box" and won't connect
						
					
					
				
			
		
	
			
	
	
	
	
	
Had to use the iPad version of Sky Go last night for the first time since moving to Sky Q.
Shortly after launching it says "We've found a different Sky Q Box" and gives yuo the option to CONNECT or DONT CONNECT.
I hit connect, but a few seconds later I get the same message.. And this happens over and over and over.
In contrast the PC version on the same network connects fine..
Any thoughts?

Is the ipad on the latest software?

In the settings of the Sky Go app is the connection to your Q box turned on or off ?

Have you tried leaving it turned off perhaps overnight or some other time you are not using it then turning back on when you come to use it next ?

I just installed SkyQ on my Android Phone and it works just find.. It sees the SkyQ box (it doesn't actually ask to connect like the iPad app does).. And I can see the recordings
This is the same network so this is clearly an iPad/App thing...

All I can suggest is to email the apps team to see if they have any ideas:
apps@sky.uk
