I phone turns off unexpectantly and then restarts

after a few minutes of being switched on the iphone 3gs turns itself off and then restarts. I have tried to update the software but there are no updates at the moment. I attempted to reset the phone but in the process it again turned itself off. It has had a full battery when it has done this.

You probably have to put it in recovery mode and restore it, as explained here: http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1808.

Power button doesn't work, phone turns off randomly, and then flashes the apple screen over and over until I plug it into the charger

I have the iPhone 4s through Sprint, running iOS6. The power button my phone doesn't do anything, it doesn't lock my phone, and holding it down does not turn off my phone. Randomly, the power off screen will come up, sometimes over and over and over again. Sometimes the lock screen does the same thing, and there have even been times when it screen captures my lockscreen. Also, my phone will randomly turn off even when the batter is around 50%, and then the apple screen flashes over and over (sometimes for hours when I'm at work) and will not fully turn back on until I plug it into the charger. I have not spilled anything on it. I have dropped it, a few days ago, but it has been acting like this for weeks. I also had the problem with my wifi, where it grayed out and I couldn't select it, but my wifi randomly started working again. Any help would be much appreciated.

I have the same prob

Device turns off unexpectedly and does not respond

Just got my iPhone yesterday and originally it took over an hour to turn on. I was able to get it on at one point and go through the activation and syncing process. The phone turned off unexpectedly once the next morning and took over an hour to turn back on, only after plugging it into the computer and then unplugging it. Restoring it was not possible. It turned off again and I was able to boot it up withing an hour. Then now it turned off again and I haven't been able to turn it back on for over 5 hours. Help!

If you followed the instructions in the support article exactly (leaving the machine off for two minutes), then it has a hardware fault. Take it to an Apple Store or other authorized service provider for repair.

Battery turns off suddenly and when restarted the date comes up as 1969

My PowerbookG4 will shut down suddenly saying there is no more battery left when it really has around 30% left.
When restarted it comes up with an error message saying that some programs may run erratically and the date and time are set at Wed. December 31st, 1969 at 4:00pm. Most times when it connects to the internet it goes to the normal day and time, however some times it has to be corrected manually.
Why is the battery shutting off and the time going crazy?
Powerbook G4 Mac OS X (10.4)

The battery might be in not good condition.
about the date comes up as 1969 may be happened if the backup battery (another battery inside PBG4 17"). the backup battery is for save PMU setting & date time

Iphone 5c turns off on and on by itsself

So I was using my IPhone waiting for my friend to answer my text and all the sudden my phone turns off. And then it turns back on for 5 seconds. and it did this for an hour straight. but then stopped. and now is doing it again. and i cannot figure out what happened to my phone.

Backup your phone and then restore as new and see if the problem still occurs.
