Help!!! my computer turns off when i plug in my iphone

Do you have any other peripherals connected to the computer when you connect the iPhone. If so, disconnect them and try again.
Make sure you're connecting the USB cable correctly to the computer. I've seen a few instances where the USB pin on the computer was bent down and the USB cable was connected upside down.
This could also be caused by a damaged photo. If it's okay with you, you might try deleting the photos you've taken with your iPhone and then connect. If you don't want to lose the photos, you can email them to yourself.

Computer turns off when I plug Ipod Touch in

Hi everyone,
I was just wondering if anyone could give me some advice. Each time I plug my Ipod Touch into my computer and open iTunes it resets the whole computer. It will keep on doing this until I take my ipod out of the usb port. I tied plugging it into my other PC and accessing the few songs I have on there and it worked fine.
I'm not sure what's going on, Wether its my Ipod or if its my computer (both pc's by the way).
Any help will be much appreciated.

You can start by turning off the caps lock.
You need to try a few things - reset your iPod and check on what is happening with the Apple Mobile Device Services on your computer.
If you don't know how to reset, click the Support tab at the top of the page and then click on Troubleshooting.
As to the AMDS problem, see this article: http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1567

My iphone5 will die or just turn off, when I plug in the charger the screen just keeps turning

My iphone5 will die or just turn off, when I plug in the charger the screen just keeps turning off and on. It will do this for hours until it finally stays on and charges. I've gotten a new charger, but it didn't work. Help

Hi there katygracie88,

Will not turn on, will not turn on unless connected to power, or unexpected power off
Verify that the Sleep/Wake button functions. If it does not function, inspect it for signs of damage. If the button is damaged or is not functioning when pressed, seek service.
Check if a Liquid Contact Indicator (LCI) is activated or there are signs of corrosion. Learn about LCIs and corrosion.
Connect the iPhone to the iPhone's USB power adapter and let it charge for at least ten minutes.
After at least 30 minutes, if:
The home screen appears: The iPhone should be working. Update to the latest version of iOS if necessary. Continue charging it until it is completely charged and you see this battery icon in the upper-right corner of the screen . Then unplug the phone from power. If it immediately turns off, seek service.
The low-battery image appears, even after the phone has charged for at least 20 minutes: See "iPhone displays the low-battery image and is unresponsive" symptom in this article.
Something other than the Home screen or Low Battery image appears, continue with this article for further troubleshooting steps.
If the iPhone did not turn on, reset it while connected to the iPhone USB power adapter.
If the display turns on, go to step 4.
If the display remains black, go to next step.
Connect the iPhone to a computer and open iTunes. If iTunes recognizes the iPhone and indicates that it is in recovery mode, attempt to restore the iPhone. If the iPhone doesn't appear in iTunes or if you have difficulties in restoring the iPhone, see this article for further assistance.
If restoring the iPhone resolved the issue, go to step 4. If restoring the iPhone did not solve the issue, seek service.
Issue not resolved
My issue is still not resolved. What do I do next?

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 ...

Computer turns off when importing CDs and converting files! HELP!

Hi everyone,
I'm having trouble importing music from CDs and converting files on my computer. The computer just turns off when I do these things and I'm really stuck as to why. Can anyone help?

I just started having the same problem. I was able to import songs from 5 cds with no problem, but when I tried a few more my mac started shutting down about halfway through the import of the song. It doesn't matter how many songs I choose to import, it happens on the first one everytime. Did you find a fix for this?

My computer turning off when plugging in my iphone??? Why..

Can anybody help me out here? My iphone completely turns off my computer does anybody have that problem and if so how do you fix it?
R/S

Marine78,
Have you added any card to your computer, or replaced any hardware? What power supply do you have?
A PC may shut down when something draws additional power if either the USB port is not connected correctly, or if the power supply is already overloaded and trips its own circuit breaker.
If it is restarting, and not powering completely off, do you happen to have a Logitech Webcam installed or previously installed? If so go to Logitech's website and download the latest version of their software. Many Windows XP or Vista computers will automatically restart if they get a blue screen. You could be getting a blue screen because of a software conflict with another device. This is discussed in this knowledge base article:

Hope this helps,

HT201269 I have an IPhone 4 that turns off.When I plug the phone into a outlet, it says to connect to iTunes. But my phone doesn't connect. I need to backup info to sync to a new iPhone. Is there another way to get the info from the old one?

I have an IPhone 4 that turns off on its own. When I plug the phone into an outlet, it says to connect to iTunes. When i connect my phone to itunes, the screen displays the apple icon and doesn't connect to iTunes. I need to backup info on this phone so I can apply my back up to a new iPhone. Is there any another way i can do this? My older phone will not show it's connected to iTunes. I used iCloud on the phone with problems, but I didn't back up all the info thru iCloud. Is there another way to back up?

Sounds like your phone is in recovery mode. In this case, all data on it is gone. There's nothing to back up.

IPod turns off when i plug in a 1/4 inch jack.

Whenever I plug in a headphone jack into the ipod it turns off!
I can't use my iPod.
Has anyone had this problem?
This is my 4th iPod in a year.

A 1/4 inch jack won't fit into an iPod, I assume you mean an adapter to go from 1/8 to 1/4 inch?
The iPod headphone jack has a feature that pauses Playback when the headphone jack is pulled out. Sometimes certain jacks inadvertently activate this feature due to minor differences in jack design.
You may be using a Mono Jack Adapter (which has only one Black band) or a Stereo Jack Adapter (which has two black bands). Either one could be causing this problem.

How do I keep my computer from shutting off when I plug in my iphone

What do I need to do to keep my computer from shutting down each time I plug in my iphone?

Hello goldeeneyes!
I'd love to tell you how to adjust your screen settings. Keep in mind that a longer screen timeout may drain your battery significantly, so you may wish to change it back when you are not using your knitting application.
Please go to Settings>Display and change the Sleep to a longer period of time. Happy creating!
Thank you,

My computer shuts down when I plug in my iPhone 5. Please help!

I have a new iPhone 5, and when I plug it into my PC, it syncs for a few minutes and then my computer abruptly shuts down. This is my 3rd iPhone model (previously 3G, 4, and now 5), and I've never had this problem before. I reinstalled windows 7 home premium, and reinstalled itunes, but this problem persists
Any ideas?

Also, I do not have a webcam on this computer, so it can't be an old camera driver... (as was the case for others with this same issue...)
