IPhone 4 shuts down after heavy music/mapping use

My iPhone 4 keeps shutting down after us for music or maps for some time in motor vehicle; sort suggests it is overheating!! Sometimes it will not reset/restart using both conytols for quite some time. I have rrestored the iOS several times without curing shutting down probelm. And now the iPhone won't show up in iTunes on my new Macbook Air. All software including iTunes is up to date. I would appreciate advise on a solution. Thanks

My nano shuts down after one minute of use, why? Brandnew

My nano shuts down after one minute of use and it doesn't matter if I'm using the radio or playlist. This is brand new so I've only ever listened to 1 minute of a song. Help

Kevin,
This usually happens when your headphones/earbuds aren't plugged all the way in. Double check the connection of the headphones and make sure the jack is free of debris.

Hi Prashun,
Thanks for visiting Apple Support Communities.
You can use these steps to troubleshoot your iPhone if it's powering off unexpectedly:
iPhone: Hardware troubleshooting
http://support.apple.com/kb/TS2802
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.
Regards,
Jeremy

IPod shuts down after playing music for 1 minute

Whenever I try to listen to music or radio the device shuts down after exactly 1 minute. Can't find a setting to change this. I already did reset all settings, to no avail. Any help? Thanks!

Make sure the headphones are plugged all the way in, meaning no silver from the headphone's plug can still be seen. You shoul hear a sort of clicking noise when inserted the headphones to signal that they have been fully seated.

Iphone shuts down after a few minutes of non-use (after 1.1.3 update)

After the update, if I do not use the iphone for a few minutes it basically goes dead and I need to power it on and it reloads the system...I tried to reinstall the update, delete all my data and start fresh...nothing has worked...I really do not know what else to do...it really seems a software issue...
Any thoughts? Thanks,

i am having the same problem... i turned the auto-lock off so my phone never sleeps and in return it runs my battery down even faster and calls people on accident... even more odd is that the car charger i bought from at&t has alweays worked fine until the 1.1.3 update and it all of the sudden started sayin that this accessory wasn't designed for an iphone and that i should put it in airplane mode so i wouldn't get interference... i have restored several times and nothing helps... i have been all over the net looking for a fix but finally had to call apple and they are sending me a loaner and i have to ship mine back to them for repair... should be here tomorrow (i hope)... beware there is a $30 loaner phone fee... as bad as it sounds i'm glad to hear that i'm not the only one with this problem...

IPhone shuts down after end of phone call

My new iPhone 3G cuts out/powers off at the termination of any incoming or outgoing call. I have to wait 5-10 seconds to get it to respond again and power up. Has anyone had a similar problem and how did you fix it?

There is a chance that maybe you didn't explain your issue well. The screen does turn off when you bring to your ear when the phone is on a call. This is done with the proxmity sensors.
Now if it won't come back on when you pull away, there is a good chance you are using a case on your phone that is partially blocking the sensors.
Take phone out of case (if in one) and see if problem continues.

Several Apps seem to just mysteriously shut down after using for a while. Same with Safari, I will be using Safari and it shuts down. Face book too. I've reset and shut down my iPad 3 and restart it, but it stills shuts down. What to do?

Several Apps seem to mysteriously shut down after using them for a while. Face Book shuts down , netflix, Safari, and other Apps. They work fine for a short while, or a long while, and then shut down and it brings me to my regular desktop screen. I've tried restarting by completely shutting down the IPad until I see the apple pic and turned it back on, but the shutdowns of apps continue. Anyone else have this issue? It generally started shortly after downloading and installing IOS 7......

Hi jennyoutwest,
Welcome to the Support Communities!
The following articles will provide some troubleshooting steps for your iPhone.
iPhone, iPad, iPod touch: Turning off and on (restarting) and resetting
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1430
If that does not resolve the issue, refer to page 146 in the iPhone User Guide to Reset All Settings:
iPhone User Guide for iOS 7
manuals.info.apple.com/MANUALS/1000/MA1565/en_US/iphone_user_guide.pdf
The final troubleshooting step would be to restore your device:
iTunes: Restoring iOS software
http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1414
Restoring your device will delete all data and content, including songs, videos, contacts, photos, and calendar information, and will restore all settings to their factory condition. Before restoring:
Verify that you are using the latest version of iTunes.
Back up your device.
Transfer and sync content to your computer.
Cheers,

HT4623 My iPhone 4S keeps shutting down after I upgraded to iOS7

My iPhone 4S keeps shutting down after I upgraded to iOS7

This has happend twice to me in the past 12 hours since I just updated to iOS 7.0.2, but did not happen after I updated to iOS 7
Last night the operating system crashed to the Apple symbol (a reset) when browsing the settings menu.
Perhaps it's a bug with the movement tracking? Seems to be connected with sudden movements (I noticed it shut off when I quickly lifted the phone up to look at the screen) - perhaps the background parallax is glitching the system to a software reset? If my problem persists I may temproarily disable the parallax to see if that mitigates the resets.
To be clear, the update to iOS 7 didn't precipitate this problem, and I updated to iOS & on the day of its release (9/18).
This used to happen to me sporadically on my iphone 4s on iOS6, usually when my battery was anywhere at 40% to 5% - though I suspect that was because I was due to re-set the battery by completely draining it.
Is anyone else having this issue with their iPhone 4S?
I'm using a Verizon iPhone 4s 64 GB, still in excellent condition.

Why does iTunes shut down when playing music but not using computer, why does iTunes shut down when playing music but not using computer

Hi Everybody

Hi Limnos
I have tried that but it makes no difference at all, the only way I have found to get continues sound is to open and set a keynote presentation onto play and dimmed the screen using the function key and adjusting it manually so as not to kicker my screen, there must be an easier way than this.
Thanks for trying

Is there a way to prevent ibooks author from shutting down after just one or two uses of the alpha tool?

Is there a way to prevent ibooks author from shutting down after just one or two uses of the alpha tool?

Hello One Job at a time,
Deleting the application will not delete your projects.
Normally I keep all my work files on a separate drive.
If you command click on the title name of your project you will get a drop down path to show you the location of your book project.
or you can click on the drop down triangle beside its name to duplicate.
Just remember where you saved the file too.
In your applications folder on your computer select the iBA icon and press delete and also erase / empty the trash can.
You can then go back to the APP STORE and install iBA from new again.
I hope this helps.
Regards,
Nigel
