How to navigate and click options without controllers

Upon booting up I get a transient screen then the tracking error message.  If I power down I get a pop up box with "restart" or shut down"  How do I choose one without a controller?  What is the white dot that appears but cannot be moved?

 

Also, how do you wake up the black screen with the tracking messages?  I tried all the solutions found online but none worked.  the only way I found to clear the problem is to re-download the latest firmware, but the fix is only temporary.  I read a similar post and the individual was told to investigate privately with Meta.  I just bought this unit used so there is no warranty.

The white dot is the cursor,  you should be able to move it around by moving your head.

 

when you find a selection you wish to click; try pressing the volume down button.

 

i am unsure what you mean by the “tracking messages”.

 

But to wake up from the normal black screen is done by tap the power off button once, waiting 3 seconds then tapping the power button again.

I know just enough about tech to look like I know what I'm doing.
