You’re not alone if your computer, phone, TV or Wi-Fi doesn’t behave the way it used to. Technology changes often, and it isn’t always explained very well.

A few simple things that genuinely help:

• Computers: use Restart, rather than just turning them off
• Phones and tablets: hold the power button and choose Restart
• TVs and Wi-Fi boxes: turn them off at the wall for 30 seconds, then back on
• If something suddenly looks or works differently, it may have updated and nothing is broken
• It’s okay to take notes or write things down

This isn’t your fault. Technology often changes without telling you.

If you’ve tried the basics and it’s still not right, that’s okay too.
