  • After upgrade to iOS 8, My ipad is getting shut down intermediately.

    After upgrade to iOS 8, My ipad is getting shut down intermediately. Even while surfing net also it happens. Earlier I thought it may be due to any software/game which is not compatible. But it happens during surfing net on Safri. No option to move back to iOS 7.

    Hi BalajiPrusty,
    If your iPad shuts down intermittently, I would suggest that you troubleshoot using the steps in this article - 
    iPhone: Hardware troubleshooting - note: the article is for iPhones but this section is relevant to iPads as well.
    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 LCIsand 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.
    Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.
    Best,

  • My iPad 2 is shutting down when I try to email a PDF created in pages. Why? Very frustrating...., My iPad 2 is shutting down when I try to email a PDF created in pages. Why? Very frustrating....

    My iPad 2 is shutting down when I try to email a PDF I have created in pages. Why? Very frustrating....

    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.

    Have you tried to reset it? Hold down the sleep and home keys for about 20 seconds and see if you can get it to reboot.

  • How do I get my iPad to stop shutting down by itself?

  • Ipad will just shut down and not power back on until it is plugged in

    Ipad will just shut down and will not reboot until it is plugged in. Any suggestions??

    I'm going to guess that your battery isnt just dead?
    Have you tried a reset? Hold down the sleep and home keys, past when you see the red power down slider  and until you see the silver apple. Let it reboot and see if that helps.
    If it won't hold a charge, make an appointment at your local apple store and have them take a look at it.

  • 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.

  • Ipad 2 just shuts down

    what ever i seem to do on my ipad e.g playing games browsing safari music etc my ipad 2 will shut down and the apple logo will apear then it will reboot itself. somtimes when its reebooting the apple logo apears at the start up screen and i can see computer programing text in the top left corner of the screen i cant make out what it says thou. any help please

    If you restored the device and you still get this, you probably need to get Apple involved. Make an appointment at a Genius Bar and let them take a look at your iPad.
    Did you drop the iPad, have some sort of accident with it?

  • Virtualized servers get stuck at "Shutting down Windows Modules Installer service ..."

    Hi,
    I have a Windows 2008 R2 (no service pack) server that has been virtualized last summer and since then:
    - Windows Update does not download any updates (it says Cancelled for every update in the Update History)
    - When I reboot the vm, it gets stuck on "Shutting down Windows Modules Installer service ..." and I have to cold-Reset the vm to get it working again.
    I tried running Windows Update Standalone Installer (Windows6.1-KB947821-v20-x64.msu) on the machine, but that gets stuck on "searching for updates"...
    I tried stopping the Windows Update service but that doesn't work either, it says that the service is not responding...
    I'm not sure what to try next, I'd appreciate any pointers.
    Thanks a lot,
    Guillaume

  • 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:
