IPhone 3G keeps shutting itself off

Randomly my iPhone will come up with the power off slider and cancel button at the bottom. I don't even have to be touching it at the time. If I don't catch it and hit cancel, it just goes to the apple logo. I reset the settings and also did a full restore but it is still happening. It also feels really warm. It started doing this after I was laying out the other day and it got a bit hot. I never got the temperature warning, will this go away or am I just kinda screwed?

mine is doing exactly the same ... did you find a solution?

My iPhone 3GS keeps turning itself off all the time the power/sleep button dosent work so it's quiet annoying having to plug it in all the time dose anyone have a fix for this?

The "fix" is to get the phone repaired. There's no magic solution for a broken phone.
Bring your phone ant $149 to Apple for an out of warranty replacement, or find a 3rd party repair shop near you.

My Blackberry Curve 8520 Keeps Shutting Itself Off...

Moderators, I really need your help.
My Blackberry Curve 8520 Keeps Shutting Itself Off after my power supply got damaged (the cord was cut open and the two small cables were touching each other causing it to spark a little). Now I turn it on and just 5 to 10 seconds later it shuts itself off everytime. The media card is damaged too. Last night I charged its batteries and 5 minutes ago it was already drained. I dont want to lose my contacts, notes or BBM contacts.
Please at least help me diagnose the problem.

Hi dalstongirl
Have you already sent your BlackBerry in for service? If not, I would advise checking for any software updates by plugging in your BlackBerry to your PC and going to www.blackberry.com/update
Thanks

My iPad keeps shutting itself off during use. It does not matter is the battery is 100% charged or not. Anyone have any ideas as to why this is happening?

Not normal. Take it to an Apple Store for evaluation.

HT1688 My Iphone 4 randomly shuts itself off and will not turn back on unless I preform a hard reset.

I have an Iphone 4 that will randomly shut itself off and then not come back on unless I preform a hard reset. Also, it sometimes freezes up and needs to be reset in order for the device to begin working properly. I have tried to back up and restore using itunes on my computer but I still have the issue. Can someone shed some light on this issue for me and let me know how to correct it? Thank you. Randy.

Try to set it up as new device, this time without using the latest backup. If this does not work, contact Apple to get it checked.

My fully charged iPhone 4 has shut itself off and will not turn back on. It also does not register when connected to my Mac. Any suggestions?

My fully charged iPhone 4 shut itself off this morning and wont turn back on. Any suggestions?

Have you tried holding down the home/power button together until you see the apple logo and then release, then wait for the phone to boot back up. If that doesn't work, try that step again but with your phone plug into your Mac.

Iphone 4 keeps turning itself off. no matter if i have a full charge it turns off whether I am texting or using any app.

Hello,
My Iphone 4 turns itself off constantly. Whether it is fully charged, 80 % or anywhere in between it shuts off and I need to hook it up to the charger to get it to open up again. What can I do to fix this?

Yes, I have. I still have the same problem. My phone won't stay on for any length of time. I just updated to the latest iOS as well, it shut itself off in less than one minute. I have an appointment this coming thursday at the Apple Store.

BRAND NEW i27 KEEPS SHUTTING ITSELF OFF

Just bought the latest and apparently greatest in iMac desktop computers and I am getting frustrated cause the bloody thing keeps shutting itself down.
It is the i27 with 16gb ram, the i7 3.4 quad core with 768gig Flash and the graphics upgrade to 2gig g-force gtx 680. We didnt mess around with "should we"
It will be fine when using it but when you walk away from it, the screen saver comes on and it eventually goes to sleep. Now this is pi55ing my wife off no end as she uses automatic programs on farmville etc. Even when its running, it still opts for Screen saver, and sleep. When she wakes it up, low and behold she logs in and her automatic programs have stopped and I get the old "come and fix this stupid thing"
I have turned off every automatic shutdown and screensaver option I can find.
Now
I am starting to get pi55ed off.
Anyone got any sugegstions?

So you've gone to system prefences, energy settings, and moved the computer sleep slider to never but it still goes to sleep?
You can open terminal and type pmset -g to verify your sleep setting is 0 and not a number like 15 or 30...
You can also download the app caffine from the Mac App Store. Install it and you'll get a coffee cup on the upper task bar. Click it and your iMac will never sleep for sure.

My iPhone 4S keep turning itself off then on

My I phone 4s and iPad keep turning itself off and on when on face time can you help. Please

You either have a hardware or software issue. Try restoring your phone to see if that fixes things.

My 5 month old iphone 5s just shut itself off 45 minutes ago, and I have tried charging it and the only thing that appears on the screen is a white screen with the black apple. How is this repaired?

About 45 minutes ago my iphone 5S just shut off on its own. I have tried charging it only to have the white screen with the black apple showing. How can this be repaired?

Keep it plugged in and do a reboot by holding both the power and home buttons until the apple logo appears, ignoring he red slider if that appears.

IPhone 4 keeps turning itself off - Help !

So I've had this problem with my iPhone 4 for months now, and lately it seems to be getting worse. It used to randomly turn itself off when it had loads of battery at any time, and lately it's getting worse and worse. I take it off charge and it either turns off straight away, or it turns off within a few minutes.
When trying to turn it back on, the apple logo just appears and then it turns off again, and I cannot turn it back on properly until it is put back on charge. Even at that, sometimes when put back on charge the apple logo just appears and disappears sometimes, and doesn't actually turn back on.
I thought the battery was the issue so I had it replaced, but when I did so, the problem reappeared a day later. As I'm writing this I can't turn my phone on, but I'm almost 100% sure the software version on it is 6.1.2 if that's any help. Somebody help me! Nobody else seems to be having this problem as far as I can tell either, so thanks in advance if somebody is able to put me out of my misery.

I would ask for another battery replacement just to ensure you didn't get a defective one, and if that doesn't do it you have some type of hardware problem on your hands. I doubt it's a software issue - rarely does a phone just shut off like you're explaining unless it's physical hardware.

My iPhone 4S keeps turning itself off when I still have battery life and then it doesn't charge?

It's only just started doing this and it's really annoying me now!! Ha
I'll charge my phone up overnight then a couple of hours into the next day the battery wil be down to about 20% then it will say I only have 10% left even though I will have 20% if you see what I mean? And then to top it off it turns itself off and won't let me recharge!!
It did happen to my iPad the other week but that seems to be fine now.
I've tried changing and checking chargers etc but they seem to work it other people's and my iPad seems fine now

Hi there glee154!
I have an article here that can help you troubleshoot this issue with your iPhone. The article is about troubleshooting a multitude of iPhone hardware issues, and can be found right here:
iPhone: Hardware troubleshooting
http://support.apple.com/kb/TS2802
The specific section you will want to reference can be found here:
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 LCIs and corrosion.
Connect the iPhone to the iPhone's USB power adapter and let it charge for at least ten minutes.
After at least 15 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 coming to the Apple Support Communities!
Regards,
Braden

My ipod keeps shutting itself off

For example I am in shuffle and I will skip the song and it turns itself off.

New 5g Video Ipods should not restart/shut off when using a simple function as skip/next ~~ I found this glitch on the first day of owning mine and returned it IMMEDIATELY. Some people will suggest to you to RESTORE the ipod; don't bother, it will not fix the issue. Return it for another one. I got mine exchanged with no hassle.

Canon 60d keeps shutting itself off!!

I'm having a major issue with my Canon 60d and I'm hoping you can help me.
I'm shooting a documentary with many interviews. This **bleep** camera keeps shutting off. Not the 12 min shut off during video, it just keeps shutting off.
I read on blogs about the SD card not keeping up. I've used two cards: ScanDisk 32 mb class 10, and Transcend 32 mb class 10 and had the same issue. I'm shooting 1920x1080 24fps.
I'm thinking maybe the camera is getting hot? It will initially record fine for about 20 min's then shut off. Recoding again it shuts off after about 7 min. then 5 min, then 3 then continues at a lower and lower recording time until it shuts off around 30 seconds into recording.
I have found nothing online that will solve this problem.
I am interviewing many well know figures who have been around a long time and have great notoriety, and it's extremely embarrassing to have this happening. Not to mention not getting the information I need for the movie because of camera issues.
Please help!!!
Looking forward to hearing from you.
Much gratitude,

It would be very unusual to not get the white and red icons. I suggest more experiments and you might try to reduce your resolution. Have you tried 720P? Also, 32 GB is a huge card size. (I know, I know, they are very cost effective.) You should try a smaller size card. Thirty minutes of 1080p movie should work out to about 2GB making a 32GB card capable of holding about 7 hours of footage.
I guess the bottom line is you should make certain that you don't need a second body to film your interviews; something I think you should seriously consider. One body could cool while the other shoots.
Good luck.

My iPhone 4S keeps turning itself off :/

I have an iPhone 4S, it keeps turning itself of on its own and crashing. I've restated it, reset it and been to an apple shop but the Genius Bar told me that this is a software problem which they can't do anything about. They've offered me a refurbished iPhone 4S but I would have to pay £180 for it. Is there anything else I can do? I know they've admitted that it's a software malfunction and I'm really not happy they won't replace the damaged product free of charge. Just wondering if there's anything else I could try. Thanks

Exactly the same problem and answer by Apple. Disgusted so went and brought a Samsung. Problem solved.
