How come when i press the sleep on my MBP it auto shut down?

Pressing the Power Button brings up a dialog: "Restart Sleep Cancel Shut down (default button).
Teddy Mack; are you just giving the Power Button a light touch, or holding it down?

    Hello all,
    I have a 14.88G iPod Nano that I currently use as my primary watch. A week or so ago I started to experience a blank white screen when I press the "sleep/wake" button instead of the watch face (I have it set to wake from sleep to display the clock). When I hard reset it, it will come back fine and the screen will respond and work as normal, as soon as I manually put it to sleep by pressing the "sleep/wake" button and then try to wake it the same thing happens and I have a blank white screen that doesn't respond to touch gestures or anything.
    What I have tried so far to no avail:
    Numerous hard restarts (holding the "sleep/wake" button with the volume - button).
    Tried this: iPod nano (6th generation): Hardware troubleshooting
    Changed the watch face to display.
    Recharged the device overnight (without full discharge).
    Since none of this works I'm out of ideas. Eventhough I have a 6G Nano it should no longer be under warranty since I was sent it as a replacement for a different (older) product.
    Any ideas? Is this a known problem? Thanks in advance for any insight any of you could provide. Also, what time is it??
    Regards,

    Hey,
    I have the exact same problem as you have described. I also used my ipod as a watch but starting from today, whenever I unlock it the screen turns white until a reset is done. Even a factory reset through itunes didn't fix it.
    Have you found any solution?
    Bah, this is annoying.

    Sounds like your iPhones software may be corrupt. Try placing the iPhone into recovery mode. To do this, follow the steps in this article:

    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.

  • My Ipod touch is acting very annoying. When i press the sleep/wake button to turn it on it just turns on with the apple logo and stays there. The screen will then blink white occasionally and the process will start again.

  • TS3700 why does my music stop playing when i press the sleep/wake buttom? it says the screen turns off but the music should be playing

    why does my music stop playing when i press the sleep wake button? it says that the screen should turn off bu the music should still keep playing

    This is usually a sign that your headphones are not plugged all the way in.  Make sure the white part of the headset is flush with the body of the Nano and no silver from the plug can still be seen.
    If you are 100% positive that the earbuds are all the way in, double check to make sure the headphone jack is clean and clear of debris and/or damage.

  • Ipad2 won't shut down even when i press the sleep/wake button and the home button at the same time.

    I can't shut down my ipad2 even when i press and hold the sleep/wake button and the home button at the same time.

    If the screen appears to be zoomed in, then does tapping the screen with three fingers zoom you back out ? When zoom is on you should also be able to scroll around the screen using three fingers on the screen.
    If you are seeing the keypad then that should be for the iPad's passcode, I assume that you have one set ? If the iPad is disabled then I wouldn't expect the keypad to show.

  • How come when I tap the back of my iPhone next to the camera, it sounds like there is a lose piece in inside?

    I just got my iPhone so i can't imagine there is anything wrong, but I noticed that when I tap the back of my iPhone next to the camera, it sounds like there is a lose piece in inside. Also, when I put the iPhone down on a desk or table i hear the same sound. Wondering if this is normal?

    Hi JRM833,
         That would be enough to make me worry as well. I've not seen (or heard, in this case) that happen on any of my iPhones, or any others that I've been around (friends, family, etc.).
    I would say that no, that isn't normal. If you're near one, take it to an Apple store. Or, if you made your purchase at the wireless carrier you've chosen, take it back to them to see if they could help you out.
    Best of luck.

  • TS2972 How come when I do the homesharing quite a bit of my library is missing?

    Many of the songs in my homeshared library are missing. Why is this?

    It has to do with the resolution of the picture you are using for the contact. The lower the resolution, when it is increased to full screen, it pixilates, like any other photo would when it has been zoomed. Contact pictures added from the phone will be full screen, contact pictures added in Outlook will only be thumbnails in the corner.

  • HT4864 How come when I use the automate iCloud setup, does the incoming mail server have a different address then specified by these instructions?

    The IMAP sever that automatically set up is p08-imap.mail.me.com?

    So I guess using Apple Token for authenication is OK, instead of the prescibed Name and Password per the http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4864?

  • How to disable auto shut down when doing line-in recordi

    I am using Zen V Plus 6gb to do li've line-in mic recording.
    I experience creation of a few tacks when the recording ends.
    When I asked Creative Tech, they said it is auto shut down when the voice recorded falls below audible level. Can I disable this?

    If I got you right, it interrupts the recording when a period of seconds no signal more loud than a certain level is
    on the line-in source? Right? Normally you could aplify anything, even white noise, but I don't get the point.
    Are there any songs that have longer interruptions than 5 seconds according to this cd norm?

    Try This...
    Close All Open Apps...  Perform a Reset... Try again...
    Reset  ( No Data will be Lost )
    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. Release the Buttons.

    My Iphone 3gs wont charge, turn on, or restore itself in Itunes, but the apple logo still appears when I hold the sleep botton.  How can I make my Iphone work????  I know it is not dead because I can see the apple logo on, and every time I connect it to a USB port to charge, or a wall charger, the battery appears with a bit of red. Still, it wont turn on.  It's been like this for three days now and I haven't stopped charging it.  IT just WONT charge?  Any tips I can use to solve the issue?

    Hello estebie67,
    Thanks for the question, and welcome to Apple Support Communities.
    It sounds like the iPhone is experiencing issues upon startup, and may not be loading the firmware or operating system correctly. If you have not already done so, try resetting the iPhone while connected to power:
    iPhone, iPad, iPod touch: Turning off and on (restarting) and resetting
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1430
    If the above does not resolve your issue, it will be best to restore the iPhone in recovery mode:
    iOS: Unable to update or restore

    Thanks,
