Leave it in the box for a day or so (with it on) and ITV should appear (assuming you can receive astra 2D). The card will have missed some updates if it hasn't been used for a while.

If any ITV regions are activated then all of them will be (there is no regional blocking).

Just because some channels are there it doesn't mean the card has been fully reactivated. When the BBC was encrypted their channels could stay blocked long after all the other ones were available.

How long was the card out of use for? And how long has it been back in a box?

Nope, can take some time. Let us know tomorrow if you have ITV or not
