hi @Thewilt
Does the red led above the SKY Logo button light when you press the ? key ?
If not perhaps try a different set of batteries
If it does then then may I suggest you try a reset of your remote:
Press & Hold the 7 & 9 until the remote's light (red LED above the SKY logo button) flashes 4 times
Then press 1 & 3 together to go through to pair with the box and your TV - make sure it has line of sight of the box as until it is paired it uses Infrared

@Janegrant47 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
then
rebooting the mini box
