wont turn on light flashes three times

When powering up AppleTV the light will blink 3 times and then nothing.

Same result when unplugged for 5 minutes

If left unplugged for an hour or so it will turn on but the remote wont work so I can't use it

Is my remote broken or is it the AppleTV

The remote is less than 60 days old

Also it won't load in iTunes to reset it

Thanks

Your Apple TV may have become paired with another remote. Hold the remote close to and pointed at the Apple TV, hold down the menu and Rewind buttons together for 6 seconds or until you see a broken chain icon on screen.
