The old first option is to turn the box off at the mains. Wait 1 minute then turn it back on and let it reboot. (It's basically a simple computer so "have you tried turning it on and off" is often a solution!)

Hi @julie592 

Have you tried pressing the Standby button (Amber led) on the front of the Q box.
If this turns the Q box on
Try completly resetting your Bluetooth remote.
Press and hold 7 & 9 together on the remote until it’s led flashes four times.
Then make sure that you are pointing your remote at the Q box and press 1 & 3 together until the led flashes and follow onscreen instructions to re- pair.
