Apple TV turns on by itself at least twice daily
Since updating my Apple TV to software version 3.01, it turns on by itself at least twice a day. I have explored the menus and do not find any functions that control auto on/off. Is anyone else having this issue? Is there a cure? Should I just leave it on all the time, or keep putting it on Stand By?
Welcome to the Discussion Forums.
There are a number of posters who have reported this issue since the first software version, i don't th ink anyone really has produced a sound reason for this behaviour but many have suggested outside interference or network activity.
The tv does apparently consume slightly more power when not in stand by mode but this is generally considered to be around 4-5 watts, so I don't know whether you consider that excessive or not.

to place an item in illustrator cc 2014 the command repeats itself at least twice before i can place an item. would this indicate a corrupt preference file?

Thank you for taking the time with this issue. I do use a Mac with the latest OS X.
I have solved the issue simply by deleting all Adobe apps (cc 2014) I ran the Adobe app cleaner tool and deleted all traces of my Adobe software.
Then I re-installed all my apps and the issue has been resolved. In fact my Adobe apps (cc 2014) appear to be working better than ever before.
I think I may have had a corrupt preference file stored somewhere on my system. However, that was deleted and all is working fine now, better than ever before.
Thank you.

Does Apple TV turn off by itself?
How do you turn off Apple TV or does it turn off by itself?
You can put it to sleep by holding play/pause for a few seconds or settings-general-sleep now.

Pre Turns Off By Itself at Least 2x/Day (Often More)
Even with decent battery power, doing a restart, a partial erase, removing the battery, and having changes made for me on the 'network' by Sprint Support... it still turns itself off at random times. I first thought it was because the power button was so exposed, but even when it is sitting on a table, not close to anything else-- it just turns off.
Very frustrating and it is delaying me from turning off my blackberry. My Pre was meant to replace my home phone, my work phone, and my personal one... but with it turning off, I can't rely on it.
Is anyone else experiencing it, and if so do you have a fix?
Post relates to: Pre p100eww (Sprint)There was a batch of bad batteries that were out of spec (as mentioned above!)
Look at your batteries - are the "legs" at the end of the battery of the "hollow" design? These are the batteries that were a little short.
The replacements are of the "solid", filled-in design. If you have the hollow leg ones, go back to Sprint and exchange them.

Try a SMC reset.

It might be helpful if you indicated the exact model/year of your MBP. Are you running Lion OSX?

IPad turns off by itself and returns to apple logo screen
My iPad turns off by itself and I need to wait for 2-3 minutes for it to open and then it will turn off again and wait. I already tried pressing home and off buttons for 10 seconds but nothing happens.
Try restoring the iPad software.

If that does not work, you may want to try recovery mode.

applepro turns off by itself and then i have to wait anywhere from 15 to 30 mins to try to reboot and have to unplug
You should really be asking this question in MacBook Pro: Notebooks: Apple Support Communities
because this sounds like a overheating problem and we're the Mac Pro (desktop workstation) forum. -
I just turned on my Apple Macbook pro. Whenever, I turn it on, the progress bar comes with the Apple symbol and after few secs, it turns off by itself. Safe mode on start up does not work either...any ideas?
i tried it with both. i have since tried control+R, (https://discussions.apple.com/thread/3730727?start=0&tstart=0) which appears to be doing something but wont let me repair anything..

My iphone turned off by itself and it doesn't turn on
My iphone turned off by itself and it doesn't turn on, What should i do????
IIf the battery was completely drained it might take some time before the phone will respond. Wait at least 30 minutes with the phone connected to the charger. Then reset your device. Press and hold the Home and Sleep buttons simultaneously until the Apple logo appears. Let go of the buttons and let the device restart. If the phone starts up let it continue to charge until it's 100%.
if the broken button will not let you do the reset Make an appointment at an Apple Store to have your device examined by a technician. Or contact Apple Support. -

MacBook Pro (15-inch, Mid 2010): Intermittent black screen or loss of video
Make a "Genius" appointment at an Apple Store to have the machine tested. The routine hardware diagnostics used by service providers may not detect the fault. There is a specific test for this issue.
Print the first page of the panic report, and the support page linked above, and bring them with you.
Back up all data on the internal drive(s) before you hand over your computer to anyone. If privacy is a concern, erase the data partition(s) with the option to write zeros* (do this only if you have at least two complete, independent backups, and you know how to restore to an empty drive from any of them.) Don’t erase the recovery partition, if present.
*An SSD doesn't need to be zeroed.
You may be able to stop the panics by disabling automatic graphics switching in the Energy Saver preference pane, but that's not a solution.
Most likely, the logic board will be replaced. Sometimes the replacement is also defective, so be prepared for that possibility. -
when i turn on my computer it stays on the grey screen and then turns off by itself. How can I fix that?
Hi , and a warm welcome to the forums!
Could be many things, we should start with this...
"Try Disk Utility
1. Insert the Mac OS X Install disc, then restart the computer while holding the C key.
2. When your computer finishes starting up from the disc, choose Disk Utility from the Installer menu at top of the screen. (In Mac OS X 10.4 or later, you must select your language first.)
*Important: Do not click Continue in the first screen of the Installer. If you do, you must restart from the disc again to access Disk Utility.*
3. Click the First Aid tab.
4. Select your Mac OS X volume.
5. Click Repair Disk, (not Repair Permissions). Disk Utility checks and repairs the disk."
http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=106214
Then try a Safe Boot, (holding Shift key down at bootup), run Disk Utility in Applications>Utilities, then highlight your drive, click on Repair Permissions, reboot when it completes.
(Safe boot may stay on the gray radian for a long time, let it go, it's trying to repair the Hard Drive & clear caches.)
If perchance you can't find your install Disc, at least try it from the Safe Boot part onward.
If 10.7.0 or later...
Bootup holding CMD+r, or the Option/alt key to boot from the Restore partition & use Disk Utility from there to Repair the Disk, then Repair Permissions.
Hold alt or option key at bootup, do asny boot choices show up? -

my ipod 4th gen which i got from a friend is permanently disabled and when i try to restore it, it starts to restore it then my ipod goes off the "connect to itunes" screen and turns on by itself and doesnt restore i need to know how to fix this problem??
does anyone have any solutions?Try:
- iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
- Also try DFU mode after try recovery mode

- 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.
