@Kirsty1 Have you tried rebooting your main Q box ie
putting your box into Standby then switching it off at the wall for 30 seconds
switch it back on then follow the on screen instructions

@Kirsty1 is this a new install or have you changed your subscription recently ?

Re: Apps, catch up and downloading
Does the home screen show any of the normal tiles or say that there's no internet connection?

I've checked the connection and it states it's connected. I have all the tiles and can use YouTube but no catchup, on demand or other apps like Netflix and Disney +
