I phone 6 will randomly shut down

My phone will suddenly shut down when it still has a charge.  Requires me to plug in charger and wait 10-15 mins before I can try to turn it back on.

You should get the battery checked by visiting an Apple Store or Authorized Appel Service Provider next to your place.
Apple Support can also take care of that:

  • My computer will randomly shut down.

    Hello. I am using a 2006 model macbook pro, running 10.6.8 OS X. My Computer will randomly shut down with no prompt or closing any programs, as if someone held down the power button. When i go to the console application and look under system.log the last message i recieve before my computer shuts down is this:
    Dec  8 22:10:44 kieran-hooks-computer [0x0-0x16016].com.apple.appstore[170]: This isn't a bitmap context. Forcing destination format to ARGB_8 for CGContext.
    this message is repeated over 15 times in a few seconds. I know quite a bit about computers so dont be afraid to get technical.
    please help,

    I know that it only does this when I do something computer intensive. And also the fans run 6000rpm constantly from startup.

  • Sony Xperia Z1 Compact Randomly Shut Down and Is completely Unresponsive

    HELP!
    My phone has just randomly shut down. And is completely unresponsive. 
    I have put it on charge for a good 3/4 hours and the red light is not coming on, nothing happens when I try to turn on the phone either!! 
    PLEASE HELP ME

    Try performing a system repair as this will often fix issues - This will factory reset your phone
    Switch off your phone and unplug from Pc (Hold volume up and power for around 10 seconds)
    Start PC Companion and select Support zone then Update my phone/tablet then in Blue Repair my phone/tablet and follow the onscreen instructions - When prompted connect your phone still switched off holding volume down or back button - This should start the repair or reformat process
    If you are using Windows 8/8.1 or a 64bit operating system then adjust the settings for PC Companion and run in compatibility mode and chose Windows 7 or XP
    If that fails then you need to either return your device to the place of purchase or contact Xperia care http://www.sonymobile.com/global-en/support/contact-us/

  • IMac Random Shut Down Problem

    I having a problem where my iMac will randomly shut down without warning. Doesn't matter what app I'm using. The weird thing is that it ONLY happens after it has gone through a sleep/wake cycle. It doesn't happen after doing a cold start. The random shutdown happens anywhere from 30 secs to 30 mins after waking. I've tried the SMC reset, didn't help.
    It is really starting to be a pain because I prefer to put it to sleep instead of shutting it off. Please help.

    I'm having same problem. Random shut downs are truly random with shut down interval changing from 2 seconds to 20 minutes or more. I've tried everything, including reset SMU, PRAM, disk diagnostics. Disk checks out. I also deleted the com.apple.PowerManagement.plist file, then reset SMU again. No go!
    From what I have read seems like a power supply issue. I guess I've got a good run since buying this iMac in Aug 2005. I read on another thread that www.synaptech.com has reliable replacements.
    If anyone has any other ideas, then please share!
    thanks and good luck!

  • My Macbook Pro (early 2011, 15") randomly shuts down after being turned on from sleep mode?

    -So over the past week, I find that my macbook pro will randomly shut down within 1 minute of being turned on from sleep mode. Within the first few days of this, I figured out that it will only happen if I move my mac around before its completely into sleep mode. BUT now it shuts down regardless or preparation before sleep mode and everytime I turn my computer back on, I log in, and then have restore my chrome window tabs and stuff. What is going on??
    -Do I need to replace my drive??
    *PLEASE help me, thanks!
    P.S. - I am runnng OS X Mountain Lion 10.8.5

    austine38,
    if you boot into Safe mode, and then immediately restart into normal mode, log in, and put it to sleep, does it still exhibit the same random shutdowns afterwards?

  • My 2008 15in macbook pro randomly shuts down while in sleep mode. What can I do?

    I have a 2008 15in macbook pro that when it goes to sleep it will randomly shut down. Most times when I try to wake it up from sleep it will just shut itself down as well as when I close and reopen the computer it will just shut down. When I try to turn it back on it generally takes 2 to 3 tries to get it to finally come back on. What should I do? I think it might be a Hard Drive problem. Anything helps!

    Hello californiabears and welcome to Apple Support Communities,
    Try resetting SMC:
    http://support.apple.com/en-us/HT201295
    If you think you have a HD problem look at the HD in System reports:
    Apple menu - About this Mac - More Info - System Report - SATA
    Under SMART status does say "verified"?
    Otherwise:
    Using Disk Utility to verify or repair disks - Apple Support
    Is that the original disk from 2008? If so it's due.

  • Certain programs randomly shut down

    i will be using my computer and it will seem like everything is fine and then a program will randomly shut down, usually it is microsoft word, and i will constantly have to send a report to apple (which i dont think does anything). when i reopen microsoft word it won't have saved any of my previous work, which is really frustrating when i am using my laptop for notes in a lecture!! can anyone help, PLEASE?

    The problem with Microsoft word is it is not Universal Binary so it does not run well on an intel machine. The new version Microsoft is coming out with should run better since it will be universal binary.
    You might consider using NeoOffice
    or Open Office as a more reliable replacement for Word. They both can open word documents and save as word.

  • Mac randomly shuts down

    Whenever my mac is NOT plugged in, it will randomly shut down around 30 minutes during use. It has full battery life and the software is up-to-date
    Macbook 13 inch

    Yes the fan is running. That's actually why I wanted to put it to sleep - it is so loud!
    Any other possibilities? You don't think its on its way out do you?

  • Random shut down issue

    So I have a Macbook 13" 1.83 Ghz Core Duo, running 10.6.2 with 2gb of (user installed) RAM. Minus a defective battery issue last year (the battery swelled to the point where my trackpad wouldn't work) which apple replaced for free out of warrantee, I have had no issues.
    Out of the blue, I've been experiencing random shut down issues of sorts. If I have the computer plugged in it works fine. Sometimes though, the computer will randomly shut down after being unplugged. I tried reseting the SMU but it didn't seem to do anything.
    Another odd thing - I calibrated the battery with the computer on an incline on my desk to keep it cool in case it was an issue of over heating. The computer charged fully, and then drained it's charge to 0% and went to sleep as it should.
    But once I charged it up about halfway again, unplugged it, and put it on my lap, it shut off within 2 minutes. I'm well out of my warrantee so any user suggested diagnostic tips would be appreciated! I've included the battery info for good measure (btw the battery is not even a year old).

  • My iPhone with 40 or so percent randomly shuts down with iOS 7 and 6. Often with the camera app stating the phone is out of battery.  Moments later I turn it back on and the same battery life still appears.

    My iPhone with 40 or so percent randomly shuts down with iOS 7 and 6. Often with the camera app stating the phone is out of battery.  Moments later I turn it back on and the same battery life still appears.  It sometimes happens over and over until I leave it alone for a while (still not charging), and then it works.

    I think you might get a new phone instead of repairing it as it takes time and you said the repairing center is far from your living place

    I-PHONE 4 FROZE AFTER AN UPDATE, WILL NOT SHUT DOWN AND SENDS ALL CALLS TO VOICEMAIL, IS THERE ANYTHING I CAN DO?

    Unplug it and let unit go dead. Then hold your Home button down and plug the USB power cord back in. iTunes should see it and then restore.

  • Macbook Pro Randomly Shuts down...SMC Reset only temporarily

    I have a somewhat concerning problem with my 2011 Macbook Pro (15"). 
    It started two nights ago, didn't happen yesterday, and happened again today.  It has also fried two iPhone chargers.  Here's the story:
    On Sunday night, my Macbook randomly shut down.  Wouldn't restart, nor would it even charge (the LED on the charger didn't even come on).  So after trying everything I could (namely, PRAM, SMC, etc.), I finally took the bottom of the computer off, unplugged the battery internally, did a hard reset of the SMC, and everything was back up and running.  That night, I got a strange error when I plugged my iPhone in to charge:  USB is using too much power and has been disabled, or something along those lines.  Weird--but my computer didn't shut down again, so I shrugged it off.
    Fast forward to tonight--all worked fine until I plugged a NEW iphone charger into the computer.  This same cord worked fine this afternoon, but I got the "USB drawing too much power" message and then nothing.  The computer shut off, had to unscrew the bottom and do another hard reset, and here I am.
    I've tried to figure out just what might have caused this.  I did buy a charger from my university's bookstore that I do not think was Apple branded.  Is it possible that it somehow fried my battery? Or do I have a bigger issue - motherboard, RAM, etc.? The computer (when I get it to finally power back up) works fine and no files have been lost, so I don't think it's harddrive related. 
    If anyone can shed some light on this problem, please let me know.  I've searched for a long time to find a problem similar to mine and haven't found any answers other than the generic "Reset SMC," or "Reset PRAM."  I know how to and have done both of these things.  Do I need a new battery? I ordered a charger directly from Apple and have only used it since the first shut down.

    There's only a limited amount of things you can do on a laptop repair-wise: tiny and tightly packed components are a far cry from yesteryear's huge boxes with individual removables.
    Is the USB error coming in regardless of which USB slot you use? Have you reproduced this error with other USB devices that draw a charging current or significant power?
    If the problem is indeed that USB is drawing too much power, it could be a short in the USB circuitry, or it could be a short with your phone. Try charging someone else's iPhone. The concept with current is that it's "pushed by voltage" and "drawn by a resistance in a closed circuit." If the voltage is too high, or if the resistance is too low (short circuit), then you will end up where you're at.
    Also, it could be helpful to review your system log. In spotlight, write "terminal" then type in the shell prompt (without the quotes) "cp /var/log/system.log ~" this will put a file on your desktop that you can open with a text viewer, search for the word "USB" towards the end of the file, and see what you can make of it. Post anything here that seems suspicious. Warning: it'll be cryptic and hard to read!
    So,
    - Try different USB slots on your computer
    - Try different USB power-drawing devices
    - Try different iPhones or iPods
    - Review the system log and post any suspicious lines

  • Another iMac Randomly Shutting Down!!

    Hey Everyone. I'm new to the forums, though i've always used them as a resource over the years to learn more or troubleshoot issues. Hopefully, now, someone can help me with mine personally.. :-/
    I have an intel 2.8gH Aluminum iMac that I purchased fall of 2007. Only now, almost 2 years later is it suddenly (just started yesterday) turning off randomly. Everytime it will not allow me to turn it back on until a minute or so has passed. I have reset the SMC as well as the PRAM several times. This afternoon, it is now to the point where I cannot even keep it running long enough to download an app to up the fan speeds. Although, I don't think it is overheating in the first place.
    I'm really hoping it is just the power supply, as I've seen that be the fix for SOME iMacs i've found at other online forums. Though, the upper corner of my iMac is not hot or smelling burnt out at all. I have found more than several online forums of people complaining about their iMacs randomly shutting down, and am praying it is not the logic board, as that is a $900+ fix.
    please, someone give me insight to how i can check if its the power supply or something else? I use this iMac for recording all of my music, editing video, and (of course) playing WoW lol. Currently using my 1st gen macbook.

    I bought my iMac 20" in May 2006. I had been very impressed with it until one day I shut it down to move it to another room. I could not get it to turn back on. I had to leave it unplugged for a few hours. Since then it has started randomly shutting itself down, turning itself off and not starting up again until I unplug and leave it unplugged for a few hours. I had purchased the Apple Care? Extended Warranty, and the fault occurred during this three year period, though I failed to take the fault seriously and did not phone during the period. It was just after the three year warranty that I phoned Apple Care? about it and everyone I spoke to said they had not heard of this problem occurring. I wonder now, why the Apple Customer Service Team don't visit the discussions.apple.com where they will find quite a significant number of like problems occurring with the iMac sold in 2006.
    My reason for paying the nearly triple price point for an Apple Computer was the quality of the build and my expectation that I would get far longer life out of my purchase. I don't like buying throw away products and I gladly save and wait longer to buy better quality products. Just as an example and point of reference. In 2000 I purchased a second hand Dell with 8GB HDD and 256Mb RAM. I paid $1000 for it and I gave it to my father when I got this iMac and he still has it running today. It has not had a single hardware issue in nine years. Good luck I suppose. However, after spending around $3000 on this iMac, and Apple now telling me the Logic Board is generically, non specifically 'failing', it goes against my pure desire for non disposable, throw away products to buy another Logic Board for AUS $1064. For one, I don't believe it has given me anywhere near the life that I expected from a product with such a high price point and solid reputation for quality, nor do I feel confidence in buying anything more 'Apple' after the dealings I have had with them over this problem. I am amazed that Apple would sell a 'failing' Computer to their customers and then expect that the customer will spend more money, considerably more, on a product that may be equally faulty and that they will not stand behind either.
