You may be unable to view some or all of your channels in the following situations:

In addition to missing channels, you may encounter the following when you get to your subscription channels may appear red/grey on the programming guide.
You recently activated a new or replacement Bell Satellite TV receiver.
Your Bell Satellite TV receiver was inactive for at least a week.
You recently changed your programming.
Your TV programming guide is not set to the right mode.

If you experience any of the above, try to restore the channels.

Synchronize your programming: Sync your programming online. Simply follow the on-screen instructions or call 1 866 337-4617 to synchronize your programming by phone 24/7.
Note: Once you have completed the reactivation process, it takes an average of 15 minutes before you can view or record programming. In some cases, it may take up to two hours. While this is taking place, you may see an error message on your TV screen.
Reset your receiver: On most models, simply hold the POWER button on the front of your receiver for 5 to 8 seconds and then allow it to reset the satellite sign
