Ipad mini keeps shutting down

Ipad Mini keeps coming up with Slide to power off every 2 seconds. Havve updated all APPS and tried the home and other key to reset but still the same. Can someone hel pas we live very remotely

Then there is a bigger glitch. Your only other option seems to be restoring your iPad.

My iPad mini keeps shutting down.

Ever since we got a new modem, new router and new ISP, my iPad mini keeps shutting down, and disconnecting from the internet. When it disconnects, if I go to settings and try to re-connect, it just shuts down. This happens quite often...every ten or fifteen minutes. Our other iPad is fine. Once when we re-booted the router, I was fine for a whole day. I tried that again today, but it didn't help.

Hey Thifobia,
I see that your iPad is unexpectedly powering off while you are using it. Here is an article for you that addresses this issue and has some troubleshooting suggestions:

My iPad air keeps shutting down on its own!

My iPad air keeps shutting down on its own, and this is the second IPad Air doing this. I really don't want to go trade it in for another. Does anyone have the same issue and is there a way to fix it? And yes I've done the manual reset and computer reset.

Memory Size & The Impact of 64-bit Applications
The iPad Air, like the iPhone 5s, ships with 1GB of LPDDR3 memory. Apple frowns upon dissection of review samples but I think it’s a safe bet that we’re not talking about a PoP (Package-on-Package) configuration but rather discrete, external DRAM here. It’s also probably a safe bet that even the iPad mini with Retina Display will ship with 1GB of memory as well.
Something I didn’t have time to address in my iPhone 5s review was the impact of 64-bit applications on memory usage. I actually ran some tests after the 5s review hit but never got the chance to share the data, so I figured now is as good a time as any to do just that.
Unlike traditional desktop OSes, iOS doesn’t support paging to disk (or in this case, NAND). Application data can either reside in memory or the associated process is terminated and has to be reloaded the next time you request it. It’s a decision likely made to both maintain user experience and limit the number of program/erase cycles on the internal NAND.
The good news is that iOS was architected to run on as little hardware as possible and as a result tends to be quite memory efficient. There are also power implications of going to larger memories. The combination of these two things has kept Apple on the conservative side of increasing memory capacity on many iDevices.
The move to a 64-bit platform however does complicate things a bit. Moving to a larger memory address space increases the size of pointers, which in turn can increase the footprint of 64-bit applications compared to their 32-bit counterparts. So although there’s clearly a performance uplift from app developers recompiling in 64-bit mode (more registers, access to new instructions), there’s also an associated memory footprint penalty. Since the iPad Air and iPhone 5s don’t feature a corresponding increase in memory capacity, I wondered if this might be a problem going forward.
To find out I monitored total platform memory usage in a couple of scenarios. Before measuring I always manually quit all open apps and performed a hard reset on the device. Note that the data below is reporting both clean and dirty memory, so it’s possible that some of the memory space could be recovered in the event that another process needed it. I hoped to minimize the impact by always working on a cleanly reset platform and only testing one app at a time.
I looked at memory usage under the following scenarios:
1) A clean boot with no additional apps open
2) Running Mobile Safari with 4 tabs open (two AnandTech.com tabs, two Apple.com tabs, all showing the same content)
3) Infinity Blade 3 (64-bit enabled) sitting at the very first scene once you start the game
4) iOS Maps in hybrid view with 3D mode enabled, with a WiFi assisted GPS lock on my physical location
5) Google Maps in the same view, under the same conditions. I threw in this one to have a 32-bit app reference point.
In general you’re looking at a 20 - 30% increase in memory footprint when dealing with an all 64-bit environment. At worst, the device’s total memory usage never exceeded 60% of what ships with the platform but these are admittedly fairly light use cases. With more apps open, including some doing work in the background, I do see relatively aggressive eviction of apps from memory. The most visible case is when Safari tabs have to be reloaded upon switching to them. Applications being evicted from memory don’t tend to be a huge problem since the A7 can reload them quickly.
The tricky part is you don’t really need all that much more memory. Unfortunately as with any dual-channel memory architecture, you’re fairly limited in how you can increase memory capacity and still get peak performance. Apple’s only move here would be to go to 2GB, which understandably comes with both power and financial costs. The former is a bigger concern for the iPhone 5s, but on the iPad Air I would’ve expected a transition sooner rather than later.

Why does my iPad mini keep shutting off every two seconds?

Why does my iPad mini keep shutting off every two seconds?

I doubt that anyone here can answer that question with any validity...
That being said, try to reset the device:
*Device reset*
Device Reset (won't affect settings/data/music/apps/etc)
1. Press and hold (& continue to hold) BOTH the Sleep/Wake button & the Home button.
2. Continue to hold BOTH (ignoring any other messages that may show) until you see the Apple logo on the screen.
3. Release BOTH buttons when you see the Apple logo and allow the device to boot normally.

Why does my ipad air keep shutting down

Why does my new ipad air keep shutting down?

No one here can answer that. Try a reset (hold the home and power keys down until the Apple logo appears). If that does not help, take it in for diagnosis.

Mac mini keeps shutting down for no reason

My mac mini keeps shutting down for no reason. If I try to turn it on right after it shuts down, it won't or I may hear a chine, power light lit up for about 5 seconds and turns off. I have to wait a while before it would turn on again. And sometimes it stays on for 15 min, 2 hrs or 1 full night ... but then the cycle happens again.

Make sure the power cord is attached firmly to the back of the Mini. If so, try a clean install of Snow Leopard (or whatever version of OS X it came with). If neither of those suggestions works, it's likely a bad power supply, in which case you'll need to take it to an Apple store or call Apple support.

Ipad mini keeps shuting down randomly

my ipad mini keeps rebooting itself is there a way to fix it? i have try restoring it but that didn't work. its also keeps shutting down after 15 or 20 mins sometimes its freezes on the passcode screen and then it shutsdown with the apple logo showing up multiple times.

Hello Fogleman1295,
It sounds like you have restored your device from a backup, but it continues to turn off unexpectedly. I would try restoring the device one more time, but this time as new with this article:

If the issue persists I would next seek service for your iPad:

to solve the problem delete your iCloud email account .. Since I did that no more problems......

Why does my Ipad Mini keep shutting of by itself!?

A couple of days ago i took my Ipad mini to get repaired for a shattered screen. When i use it now it randomly shuts itself down (fully charged). Does that have anything to do with the screen not being installed properly or something? Is it just the ipad, if so, why is it doing that and how could it be fixed!? Help me out please!

A shutdown can happen for lots of reasons, but given the history of your device, it's wise to visit your Apple Store. The issue may lie with an improper repair, but it may also be that there's other damage that happened as result of the shattered screen. The RAM may be damaged, as well.
Back up your data. Perform a soft reset, just in case that works. If not, visit your friendly Apple Store/Genius Bar. And please post with the results.

IPOD mini keeps shutting down suddenly.

My ipod mini suddenly shows Battery low and shuts down. If i turn it back on in 2 to 3 minutes then it no longer shows battery low, continues playing. This happens every now and then. Also, sometimes the songs skip half a second or so. What can I do???
It is still under Warrenty

Assuming that you always keep the battery charged, you should reset and/or restore the iPod.
If the situation persists, then you should take it to an Apple store (if you can) and get it checked out, or return it for service.

HT4623 Why does our ipad 3 keep shutting down

Our Ipad 3 shuts down while using it, sometimes it resets and other times it does nothing. It is at the point to where you cannot even use it because it shuts down so much...less than two years old.

I would suggest a reset by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time until the Apple logo appears if this was a once r twice occurrence, but since it happens repeatedly, I would just bite the bullet and restore the iOS software. If that doesn't help, make an appointment at an Apple Store and ask them to take a look at the iPad.
Your battery might be going, there could be a short ... Something hardware related that you would not be able to fix on your own.

IIs your iPad actually shutting down (powering off and needed a restart) or is it crashing to the home screen?

My ipad one keeps shutting down when I open a page

it shuts down whether I am using Chrome or Safari, any suggestions?

That is very interesting in that my iPhone was exhibiting similar behavior with the "blue screen of death" with Pages a few months ago. An update for Pages came out and when I installed the update, the problem disappeared.
Is Pages completely updated on your iPad? Do you use iCloud with Pages? If you use iCloud, try turning it off. settings>Pages>Use iCloud>Off. You will not lose your documents since they will still be in iCloud even if you turn that off on your iPad.

My iPad hd keeps shutting down and the only screen available is black with the glowing apple symbol? What's wrong and how do I fix it?

If the above doesn't work:
Try and force iPad into Recovery Mode:
1. Turn off iPad
2. Connect USB cable to computer; leave the other end alone
3. Press and hold the Home button down and connect the docking end of cable to iPad
4. Continue holding the Home button until you see the "Connect To iTune" screen
5. Release the Home button
6. Open iTune
7. You should see "iTunes has detected an iPad in recovery mode"
8. Use iTune to restore iPad
Note: You need to be patient and repeat the above many times to recover your iPad
