HELP - iPhone shutting down repeatedly

Recently my phone began turning off, turning on, turning off...you get the picture. I reset it (home and lock button) several times, and have also restored it using iTunes a few times as well. At first (after being restored once), it would perform all functions but shut down when I tried to make a phone call. Now (after a few more restorations and a day of rest), I can make phone calls, but it will still shut off without any provocation. If you have any advice, it would be very appreciated. Thank you.

I'm having similar problems - phone is turning off completely when I put it to sleep. It doesn't happen immediately, but after letting it sleep for a while (not sure how long yet). The only way I can get it to wake up again is with a reboot.
This really REALLY ***** because I cannot get calls when it is completely off! I need an operational phone for my work!
I bought the phone on Dec. 8, 2008. Started having the problem. I returned the phone and got a replacement on Dec. 11, 2008, and had the same problem. Therefore, I'm assuming that this is software related. I've downloaded a handful of third party apps from the App Store. I have Vista... any help?????

  • My iphone shuts down and wont turn back on. any help please

    my iphone shuts down by itself and wont turn back on, what should i do?

    If you didn't see anything at all your phone has defective hardware. Connect to the charger again, and while connected hold both buttons. If the phone comes back on, but goes off when you disconnect the charger, you have a bad battery. If it doesn't come on at all you have a hardware failure of the phone. If you see any instructions on the screen, such as an image of a phone connecting to iTunes, follow them; your phone may need to be restored.

  • Iphone shuts down computer help ?

    Hey everyone
    My iphone shuts down my computer when i plug it in and it wont charge any other way either has anyone ever experienced this ?
    Thanks Lexi

    If you try to plug the iPhone into the supplied cable and charger that plugs into the wall it won't charge? What does it do? Does there appear to be any damage to the cable? I've not heard of it shutting down a computer. I would say there is probably something wrong with the cable that may be causing a short or something that is causing the computer to shut down as a precaution?

  • IPhone shuts down when phoning

    Hello,
    when the battery goes to about 50%, my iPhone shuts down when I make a call (or receive) one. When I turn it on again (without charger) and try to make another call, it shuts down again There is no low battery warning!
    But I can use it for hours surfing the internet (WIFI or EDGE), playing music etc. I also tried to use (internet & music) it, till it shuts down and charge it for at least 6 hours. This doesn't help as well.
    Can I do anything else or do I have to replace it?
    Firmware is the latest 1.1.1
    Best regards
    René

    Sorry to hear you are having so much trouble.
    2 things to do before you seek service.
    1. Reboot the iPhone on your own. Hold down the button on the top and wait until you get the red bar telling you to slide to turn it off. Power down, reboot and see if the problem persists.
    2. If that doesn't work, Reset iPhone. Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button and the Home button at the same time for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
    3. Final option is to restore the iPhone in iTunes. You'll lose some data, but if you back up first, you'll obviously be ok.
    An Apple genius will ask if you have tried these steps before proceeding. Good luck.

  • Iphone shuts down when making a call

    Please help my iphone shuts down when making a call restored and set to new phone but still shuts down after 2 to 3 mins  HELP

    I'm having exactly the same issue with my iphone, and same specs. It's a new work phone so discussed with IT manager. She advised returning it so it could be sent back for repair. Would be interested if you have heard of any other fixes as not keen to be without the phone, although that needs to weighed against the fact it randomly shuts down when a call comes in!

  • Why does my iphone shut down my computer when i have pictures on my phone

    Why does my iphone shut down my computer when I plug into the USB port when I have pictures on my phone.  My computer says it has found a new digital camera - then my computer shuts down.

    Thank you Lawrence.  I forgot I used to run a Logitech webcam several years ago and I hadn't uninstalled program when I changed the camera to a different one.  I uninstalled the camera and it now seems to accept my phone with pictures onto my computer without shutting my computer down. I really appreciate your help with this problem.

  • My iphone shuts down in cold weather.

    My Iphone shuts down when is around 0 C, which is very common in Sweden.
    I can not use it outdoors to take pictures of my children etc. Should it really be this way? Many of my friends have the same problems and are really annoyed.
    Is it specified only for California ?

    You may find it difficult getting a smartphone that can operate well in sub-zero temperatures.
