Computer turns off

My computer shuts off when Im on the internet.

Hi, disconnect fromthe Internet first.
Open console in Applications>Utilities, check the system log for the date/time of the last problem  & the Startup right after that for clues.

  • TS1717 While downloading the latest iTunes version, my computer turned off. When I opened iTunes, it says that "The file "iTunes Library.itl"  cannot be read  because it was created by a newer version of iTunes" Help please :(

    While downloading the latest iTunes version, my computer turned off. When I opened iTunes, it says that "The file "iTunes Library.itl"  cannot be read  because it was created by a newer version of iTunes" Help please

    That message is usually a sign that you tried to roll back to an earlier build of iTunes, but occasionally I've seen it connected to a new upgrade. This technique should fix things.
    Empty/corrupt library after upgrade/crash
    Hopefully it's not been too long since you last upgraded iTunes, in fact if you get an empty/incomplete library immediately after upgrading then with the following steps you shouldn't lose a thing or need to do any further housekeeping. In the Previous iTunes Libraries folder should be a number of dated iTunes Library files. Take the most recent of these and copy it into the iTunes folder. Rename iTunes Library.itl as iTunes Library (Corrupt).itl and then rename the restored file as iTunes Library.itl. Start iTunes. Should all be good, bar any recent additions to or deletions from your library.
    See iTunes Folder Watch for a tool to catch up with any changes since the backup file was created.
    When you get it all working make a backup!

  • HT1941 While working in word computer turned off and started beeping

    Okay, I was working on a word program and the computer turned off and started beeping. And doesn't respond to anything

    Sounds like hardware failure. Take it in for service.

  • When I plug the Lacie external disk to my Macbook pro, my computer turns off. Whats wrong?

    When I plug the Lacie external disk to my Macbook pro, my computer turns off. Whats wrong?

    Something certainly is wrong.  Do not plug the external HHD in the MBP.  Male an appointment at an Apple store genius bar and bring the Lacie with you.
    Ciao.

  • Please help - computer turns off randomly

    I purchased my computer in the US in september - right before I moved to London. Mid november it died. The computer would turn on and chime, but the screen was dead. I took it to a 3rd party repair (which apple phone tech support insisted was just as good as the apple store) and they replaced the logic board. It all seemed fine until I took it home and used ichat video with my family - the computer turned off. It didn't shut down, just seemed to pause and go dead. I could reboot it and it had no recollection of incorrect shutdown with the exception of firefox. (I dont know if this is important, but every time it does this and i reboot, the sound resets to mute) I started to notice that the computer does this any time I use video functions for an extended period of time (or at least 20 minutes). I have brought it to the apple store twice, where they have repaired it twice. I have gone through at least one more logic board, a heat sink, something to do with the power adapter, as well as the battery. They cannot find anything wrong - 3 repairs later its still shutting down so I went to apple again. Unwilling to give up my computer YET again, they recommended I archive and install. I have now done that - now my computer is crawling - still crashing - and some programs decide to open up occasionally or start and stop without a crash notice. I tried to run disk utility and it froze. On top of this all, they recommended I download xslimmer to convert old power pc programs to the current intel format I'm running on my new macbook - this seems to have complicated things more. I asked them to replace the computer during my last genius bar visit, i was told that because my computer was purchased in the states they cannot replace it, and I will not be heading back to the states soon enough to have it replaced there. So anyone with any insight, please help! I bought a new computer so i wouldn't have to deal with these problems and its turning out to be more of a headache than my old powerbook g4.

    I also forgot to mention that every 45-60 seconds there are two faint tick sounds coming from inside the computer.

  • Computer turns off suddenly when i startx

    Hello, I try to run xorg with my nvidia card but I have a big problem.
    My graphics card is an Nvidia GTX 670MX (in Asus G75VX)
    Here's my setup xorg + nvidia driver procedure:
    pacman-S xorg-server xorg-server-utils xorg-xinit
    pacman-S nvidia
    nvidia-xconfig
    and then i do startx ..
    startx charges to "GLX.." and the computer turns off suddenly!
    The logs file exist, but it is empty
    What can I do ? Thanks you

    You have the exact same laptop I have, and exact same problem. There is already a long standing topic about this.
    https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?id=167195&p=1
    However, to cut a long story short; certain laptops with nvidia GPU can't start x with proprietary nvidia drivers and the 3.10, 3.14 and apparently 3.15 kernels. Booting with the kernel parameter
    rcutree.rcu_idle_gp_delay=1
    seems to solve the issue for most. This is what works for me and since you have the same laptop it should work for you as well. However on the Nvidia forums, there were some people who required an additional kernel parameter
    CONFIG_HZ=1000
    But for you it should work with just the first one I mentioned so I suggest giving it a try.

  • When i connect ipod 2 minutes later my computer turns off

    when i connect my ipod to my computer 2 minutes later my computer turns off. It doesnt shut down, my screen goes blank and i cant do anything but turn my computer off at the wall. I have a healthy computer with service pack 2 so should be fine. Itunes recognises my ipod but because of this problem I have attempted the 5 r's to no avail.
    Help why would it do this i cant find anyone with a similar problem.

    hmmmmm.
    let's see if there's a blue screen lurking behind the display problem.
    1) Open your system control panel (Start->Control Panels->System).
    2) Select the "Advanced" tab.
    3) Click the "Startup and Recover" section's "Settings" button
    4) Verify that under "System Failure" the "Automatically restart" checkbox is not checked.
    now plug the ipod in. do you get a blue screen? if so, what numerical and text codes are you getting with it? (ie 0x[zeros/letters/numbers] CAPSANDUNDERSCORES)
    if the blue screen mentions a specific file, let us know what that is called too. (exact spelling, please.)
    here's a reference on the sorts of things i'm asking about:

  • Why does computer turn off when battery 40%?

    Why does computer turn off when battery around 40%? I have tried replacing the battery.

    Replacing as in "removed, re-installed", or "bought a new one"?
    This is my display from "Apple menu > About This Mac > More Info > Power"
    "Normal" means no issues.
    I will stop now in case you have actually put in a *new* battery ...
