This message means the TV is not receiving a picture from your device. It sounds serious, but it is usually very simple.
1

Press Input on the TV remote

Use your TV’s remote, not the streaming device’s. Press Input or Source, then choose the HDMI number your device is plugged into.
2

Check the device has power

Look at the small light on your stick or box. If there is none, check the power cable and the wall outlet.
3

Push the cables in firmly

Push the HDMI connection firmly into the TV. If you use a short extender, check both ends. Loose connections are very common.
4

Try another HDMI port

Move the device to a different port, then choose that number with Input.
5

Unplug everything for a minute

Unplug the TV and the device from the wall. Wait one minute. Plug in the TV first, then the device.
6

Check the power source

Plug the device’s power into a wall outlet, rather than the TV’s USB port. The TV’s port is often too weak.
