Itouch turns down for no reason

I was running on a track and all of a sudden my 64 gb iTouch 3g turns all the way down. I take out the head phones and just try the speaker, same thing. I check to see if the volume control on the side is stuck, it is not. Then I reset it see if that works, nope. It was probably around 85 defrees, 70% humidity and I a a rather sweaty person, but I have been running with it like this before, and with perview models, but never had anything like this happen. Any ideas?

  • My ipod touch shut down for no reason. now when i try to turn it on again, it goes to the apple icon to the spinning wheel, then it repeats. HELP!!!!

    My ipod touch shut down for no reason. now when i try to turn it on again, it goes to the apple icon to the spinning wheel, then it repeats.

    Try:                                               
    - iOS: Not responding or does not turn on

    - If not successful and you can't fully turn the iOS device fully off, let the battery fully drain. After charging for an least an hour try the above again.
    - Try another cable       
    - Try on another computer                            
    - If still not successful that usually indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

  • Shutting down for no reason

    So, my ibook's been shutting down for no reason and seemingly random times. The battery is fine, but I noticed that it only shuts down when the power cable is plugged in. It might work fine for hours, and it's never shut off while actively charging (below 98% battery power). So it seems to me that it might be the dc board from what I've read around here on the forums, but I want to try to get confirmation before I try to fix it myself.
    The only other detail about this situation that makes me wonder if it might be something else is that at almost the same time it seems that my power cable for my Western Digital external hard drive has gone out. Could they both be the effects of some kind of power surges? Or is it unrelated and just coincidental? I have everything plugged into a warrantied surge protector strip that should prevent that kind of thing, but I know failures do happen sometimes, or fluctuations in the power levels in a building might cause problems as well.
    I'm probably overthinking all of this, so please help me out as I'm no expert at all. Thanks so much!
    Lydia

    I just ran the PRAM reset, so we'll see how that does.
    I have the problem when nothing except the power cord is plugged in.
    The external is a USB drive with an AC source. The power cord for it acts the same way even when there's no drive attached, the light barely winks on then fades out. When the drive is attached it tries to start then turns off when the adapter (for the drive) turns its light off.
    The power adapter for computer is fine according to all the standards on that page. I replaced it back in December, so it's not been used all that much. The connection looks good and the DC in board port looks fine too.
    The fan comes on without problems and whenever I've checked the temps in istat it seems within normal levels.
    What's the Apple Hardware test? I may have heard of it previously, but seem to drawing a complete blank on it now.
    Also, at this point I'm leaning towards a power surge being the root of my problems. A bulb in an overhead light blew out the same day, I went to replace the bulb and had bought a high wattage bulb then found that the light had 2 bulbs inside and both had blown at the same time. My dad has some background in electronics and when I consulted him about the power surge theory he said it was likely. I went ahead and filed a report with the maker of the surge protector to try to get a claim in and possibly some kind of funds to help pay for whatever repairs are coming.
    Thank you so much for your help and advice, I appreciate it!

  • Mac mini keeps shutting down for no reason

    My mac mini keeps shutting down for no reason. If I try to turn it on right after it shuts down, it won't or I may hear a chine, power light lit up for about 5 seconds and turns off. I have to wait a while before it would turn on again. And sometimes it stays on for 15 min, 2 hrs or 1 full night ... but then the cycle happens again.

    Make sure the power cord is attached firmly to the back of the Mini. If so, try a clean install of Snow Leopard (or whatever version of OS X it came with). If neither of those suggestions works, it's likely a bad power supply, in which case you'll need to take it to an Apple store or call Apple support.

  • My iPhone 4S will shut down for no reason

    My iPhone 4S will shut down for no reason with plenty of battery life. Why does this happen?

    Hi 123Guardian,
    Welcome to the Support Communities!
    The following article will provide some troubleshooting steps for your iPhone.
    iPhone, iPad, iPod touch: Turning off and on (restarting) and resetting
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1430
    If that does not resolve the issue, refer to page 150 in the iPhone User Guide to Reset All Settings:
    iPhone User Guide for iOS 7
    manuals.info.apple.com/MANUALS/1000/MA1565/en_US/iphone_user_guide.pdf
    The final troubleshooting step would be to restore your device:
    iTunes: Restoring iOS software
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1414
    Restoring your device will delete all data and content, including songs, videos, contacts, photos, and calendar information, and will restore all settings to their factory condition. Before restoring:
    Verify that you are using the latest version of iTunes.
    Back up your device.
    Transfer and sync content to your computer.
    I hope this information helps ....
    Have a great day!

  • My itunes account shuts down for no reason.  It wont recognize my iphone and there is an issue with network connectivity and itunes.  I have already  reinstalled itunes and did a syste restore on my computer, firewall checked and virus scan done.  Ideas??

    My itunes account on windows xp shuts down for no reason.  If even try to delete something from my library it shuts down.   It wont recognize my iphone and there is an issue with network connectivity and I can't connect to the store.  I have already  reinstalled itunes and did a system restore on my computer, firewall has been checked, itunes is ok on firewall and virus scan done.  Ideas??

    Same problem. I can see the itunes store so not a problem with windows firewall. The account is active on my iphone so i know i am not locked out. I can connect the PC to my iphone so i know itunes is working ok. It is just logging into itunes on this pc which doesn't work. Only thing I can think of is that the email address I use for my apple id has been offline for a while and is working again now, I'm wondering whether this has been the case for others who are having this issue?

  • IMac 27'' keeps powering down for no reason

    After about 2 hrs of editing sometimes my iMac 27'' keeps powering down for no reason and then rebooting.

    If you have more than one user account, these instructions must be carried out as an administrator.
    Launch the Console application in any of the following ways:
    ☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
    ☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
    ☞ Open LaunchPad. Click Utilities, then Console in the icon grid.
    Step 1
    Make sure the title of the Console window is All Messages. If it isn't, select All Messages from the SYSTEM LOG QUERIES menu on the left. If you don't see that menu, select
    View ▹ Show Log List
    from the menu bar.
    Enter "BOOT_TIME" (without the quotes) in the search box. Note the timestamps of those log messages, which refer to the times when the system was booted. Now clear the search box and scroll back in the log to the last boot time after  you had the problem. Select the messages logged before the boot, while the system was unresponsive or was failing to shut down. Copy them to the Clipboard (command-C). Paste into a reply to this message (command-V). Please include the BOOT_TIME message at the end of the log extract.
    If there are runs of repeated messages, post only one example of each. Don’t post many repetitions of the same message.
    When posting a log extract, be selective. In most cases, a few dozen lines are more than enough.
    Please do not indiscriminately dump thousands of lines from the log into this discussion.
    Important: Some private information, such as your name, may appear in the log. Anonymize before posting.
    Step 2
    Still in Console, look under System Diagnostic Reports for crash or panic logs, and post the entire contents of the most recent one, if any. In the interest of privacy, I suggest you edit out the “Anonymous UUID,” a long string of letters, numbers, and dashes in the header of the report, if present (it may not be.) Please don’t post shutdownStall, spin, or hang logs — they're very long and not helpful.

  • MBP unexpectedly shuts down for no reason- help!

    MBP unexpectedly shuts down for no reason.
    My MBP has been working fine, until I updated to 10.5. Originally this problem started in Bootcamp running XP, but has now done this once in OS X, just a while ago. There seems to be no difference- even when the psu is plugged in. Just now when it did this again, I pressed the power key and the led on the front blinked really fast, then there was a tone- like it was doing a firmware update (but I did the firmware update months ago!).
    I've done a power reset- taking out the battery and holding the power key down for 20 seconds, which seems to have helped, but then again this problem seems to be rather sporadic, and one can never tell when it is going to happen next.
    Oh yes, there is a mechanical 'click' that sounds when it does it- like a relay click. Is there a relay power related IC on the motherboard?
    Any clues anyone? (I'm sending this exact letter to Apple as well)
    Tom

    It's an interesting thread, but I seem to have the problem even when the cord is plugged in. I did have battery problems when I first got this MBP, but they seemed to settle down once I used the computer a bit more. FWIW, I have now got them mostly while using Bootcamp. BC beta 1.3 was really stable and good. It wasn't until I bought Leopard that this problem started. And again, it's only happened 3 or 4 times now.
    I'll just have to keep saving. I'm sure Apple will wise up to this sooner or later. (Incidently, I haven't been able to send anything to Apple as I can't find their direct contact addie. Can someone 'remind' me? Thanks!

  • I just downloaded Lion and now my computer just shuts down for no reason. What is its problem?

    I just downloaded Lion and now my computer just shuts down for no reason. What is its problem?

    I recently made the same mistake.  The thing to do is download the new Quicken Essentials for MAC.  After you install the new version follow the instructions on how to transfer your old files.  There is a way, it just takes a little time and, if I remember correctly, it takes the info from your quicken backup files. Hopefully you had auto back up on and your files are intact.  I didn't and reconstruction was a bear but entirely possible.  The new Quicken is quite different but seems to work quite well.  Good luck.

    Hello everyone,
    I own an HP Probook 4710s laptop for about 3 months now.
    Recently I played Call Of Duty MW2 and after a while of playing it just shut down for no reason.
    I played it before on my laptop but it didn`t shut down.
    And just recently I played Age Of Empires 3 and it also shut down.
    It happened twice with Age Of Empires.
    Tho it never happened when I wasn`t playing games I`m still concerned and would appriciate any kind of help or explenation from anyone.
    Thank you.

    Check your Event Viewer logs at the time of the shutdown and look for critical errors and events.  It sounds like a heat problem.

  • Ibook G4 shuts down for no reason

    hi can anyone help me with a problem thats just started to happen with my ibook or maybe its happened to someone else and they have a solution. the problem i'm having is that my ibook just shuts down for no reason esp. when i'm online and won't start up again unless i remove the battery leave it out for a few seconds then put it back in and it press the on button. i have kept my software up to date and as soon as a new update is available its downloaded and installed on the computer and i also have intego security software on my mac, so this is why i'm a little confused if my software is up to date and i have my security software protecting my mac why is it shutting down i have ran virus scan after virus scan but it comes up clean every time, is my mac on the way out (its only 2 years old) or is there something i'm missing or not doing. i would be very thankful if anyone can help me with this because although there is plenty of shiny new macbooks out there i kinda like my ibook and i don't want to let it go with a fight. thanks again

    hi john
    quick question is it possible for my ibook to reset its pmu itself, i looked up the effects of resetting the pmu on the apple site and one of the things it says will happen when the pmu is reset is that, "After the reset, on some iBooks and PowerBooks, the system clock is set to 00:00 (GMT), 01 Jan 1970 for computers with Mac OS X" , its just that when my ibook shuts down an i manage to start it back up the clock is set to 00:00 (gmt) 01 jan 1970 so does that mean its resetting itself or is the date going back to then because i take the battery out. thanks for your help so far
