Iphone Apps keep shutting down

Please note before you read this: I have not found a patch, nor has Apple released one.
Hi everyone,
I have recently purchased an iPhone 4 in New Zealand. Until today, I was very happy with my purchase, the only fault I could find was the short battery, and minor reception issues.
However today, I have started having the problem of "unexpected shut downs" of all my apps. I googled to see if anyone else had been experiencing the same issue - and was astounded to find that this is a very common issue that dates back further than early 2008. Apple has issued no updates, nor has Apple advised clients how to fix it.
The general concensus out there is that every time you come up with this issue, you have to reset your phone to factory settings, and reinstall each application. Either that, or delete some applications because you have "too many". I only have 9 applications so we can rule that out as a fault.
Does anyone know how to get this issue raised with Apple? I want an answer! As I am not prepared to reset my phone everytime they have a fault. This is not a user error, this is a hardware error. Something which Apple needs to answer for.
If anyone else is having similar issues please comment. I realise that there is lenthy fix it ways to do everytime we get this error, but I would much rather Apple release a patch or new OS themselves. We are the customers, we do not chase up the faults of there products.
Cheers,
Darren H

Did you try turning off all of your Apps? Double click on the home button, when your open app screen comes on hold your finger on one of the app icon until they start to wiggle and a red "x" shows up in the left top corner. Just touch the "x" on each app to shut them down. Also you should restart your phone by holding down the on/off button and home button at the same time until you see the Apple logo. You shouldn't need to reset your phone.

Iphone 3gs keep shutting down apps

Why does my iphone 3gs keep shutting down apps when I'm in the middle of using them? The battery is holding a charge and iTunes says my software is up-to-date, so I don't understand why this is happening! It is really frustrating when I'm trying to order something online and Safari keeps shutting down!
Thanks to anyone who can help me!

Hi Rebecca,
I have looked on google for a fix to the same issue.
Apple has been aware of this issue dating back past 2008 but they have not released a fix.
Apparently the only way to fix it is to "do it yourself" everytime, by resetting your iphone to factory settings. And reinstalling your applications again.
I just brought an iPhone 4 in New Zealand, and I have only 9 applications on my phone. So it can't be an issue of 'too many' apps.
Sorry this doesn't help. The balls in Apples hands here.

Iphone 5 keeps shutting down

My iphone 5 keeps shutting down randomly without warning. This happens during the day or even over night when it's plugged in. Any ideas what's causing this?

If you're restoring from a backup, try restoring as a new device in order to test it. If it stops doing it, that means there is something in your backup file that's corrupted, or maybe one of your apps is causing the problem. If it still does it, it's probably a hardware problem, and you should make an appointment at your nearest Genius Bar to have it evaluated.

My Facebook app keeps shutting down when I try to see my inbox messages

MY Facebook app keeps shutting down when I try to open my inbox messages . It happens on both my iPhone and my iPad

I'm having the same issue and I think I've figured out why: apparently, Facebook had an issue with it a few days ago and shut them off until they've fixed it. Here's a link to the info:

So unfortunately it doesn't fix our issue but it explains it at least!

TS2634 iPhone 3GS keeps shutting down

iPhone 3GS keeps shutting down apps unexpectantly - restarting or restoring doesn't address the issue - anyone know how can I fix this problem?

Basic troubleshooting steps outline in the User Guide are restart, reset, restore from backup, restore as new. Try each of these in succession until your problem is solved. If your problem does NOT get solved, you'll need to bring your phone into Apple for evaluation.

My iPhone 4 keeps shutting down :/ lately it's taken 2hrs to come back up. Diagnostics shows panic.plist and I've had my phone barely over a year. Will Apple replace it? As I hear I need to make an appt at the apple store.

My iPhone 4 keeps shutting down. The past 3 days it's taken at least 2hrs to come back on. It constantly has no service and tells me system restore is needed. Under diagnostics it shows panic.plist. I've had my phone a year and 3mths. I hear I need to go to apple to get a replace as this is a software issue. It isn't under warranty. Will they replace it or is it a waste of my time? I recently just got the iOS update and now my phone gets hot to the touch also. Please help. My upgrade isn't until summer of next year but I need a phone that works and will get signal!

Make an appointment at
http://www.apple.com/retail/geniusbar/
Out of Warranty replacement for iPhone 4 is $149 US;
you will get the same model, color and capacity you have.
If your current iPhone was locked to a wireless provider,
the replacement will be locked to that same provider.

Why does my iPad email app keep shutting down?

I just purchased my iPad 2 3G last week, so I am a new iPad/Apple user. I really like the product and now wonder why I have stayed loyal to the Windows PC for so long. I'm still looking for some of those useful PC keys and keystroke shortcuts that I am so accustomed to, but I am adapting.
My iPad mail app keeps shutting down on me, whether I am typing a message or just reviewing/managing my mail. I use a bluetooth keyboard, so it is not a matter of me bumping the touch screen that is causing the app to close.
I have lost a lot of important business emails while composing them and eventually stopped using my iPad to compose email.
Is there a setting controlling this or is it a program glitch?
Thanks.

Pam-
It could be that the battery charge indicator is showing 100 percent when you actually have almost no charge left. In case that is the problem, leave your iPad connected to its wall charger overnight, and see if that helps.
One other thing to try, is to reset (reboot) your iPad. Hold both the Home and Sleep buttons for several seconds until the Apple logo appears. Ignore the "Slide to power off" arrow. The iPad will restart after a couple of minutes. Resetting this way will not hurt anything, and sometimes solves mysterious problems.

We have two iPad 2s and on one apps keep shutting down but on the other iPad the same app is fine. We have deleted the app, hard restarted and it still shuts down. How can we fix this?

My iPhone 4S keeps shutting down before battery is low

Why does my iPhone 4S keep shutting down when it shows I still have 30% battery or more still available? For example...my last phone started shutting down at 30% and by the time I took it to the store a couple weeks later, it was shutting down at 88% (they saw it for themselves, ran diagnostics, and came up with no issues). Getting a new phone every 3 weeks is not ideal. I'm on my 2nd replacement phone in 2 months and it started back up yet again-shut down at 31% a couple days ago. I charge the phone to 100% and it never fails, it shuts down at a higher percentage each day (it shut down at 35% today). I have done everything Apple Support has suggested with no luck (including full restore). Is anyone else having this problem? Any suggestions?

Hi,
I simply use the phone until I have only a little charge left. Once that's reached I'll simply let phone idle completely or drain the rest with lightweight use. We have big difference here as I can actually reach 1% rather than phone dying at 20++ percentages. Previous said, e.g yesterday phone just died after some use with 12% battery left and started again when bringing indoors. I was then able to drain the battery from 12% -> 1% before it eventually died completely. After this I couldn't start the phone anymore instead getting the charge icon constantly, so I just plugged it in at that point. After charging over night I would then consider the battery charge meter calibrated.
In your case you could test if you can still start the phone at 47%. Even if it's displaying only charge icon you could try to hold the sleep/power button longer and/or do reset with holding home+sleep/power button a few seconds. If it indeed doesn't start it would indicate battery truly is empty. It it does.. then you could try to continue using the phone hopefully hitting lower battery levels and eventually try to fully recharge it in case you'll see the battery charge percentage working any different.
Below picture shows I can still reach the "0%" battery level and also pretty good usage times.. so the problem with me really is just that the stupid phone doesn't like cool temperatures (possibly after iOS6 upgrade)

My iPhone 4S keeps shutting down

hello, my iPhone 4S keeps shutting down saying the battery is drained even if I have hardly used it, then when I plug it it it says I have 45% battery.
What to do?
thanks
Sarah

I have the exact same problem...Apple Support tried multiple things (including full restore) and nothing worked so they told me to get a new phone. I'm on my 3rd phone, nothing's working. They just keep giving me new phones and don't seem to have a fix for me. Going back to the store again this weekend for a 4th phone, not happy with Apple.

My iPhone 4 keeps shutting down and won't switch back on unless I plug it into charger. It's then coming hop iOS 6 and connect to iTunes?

Yes I've connected it to iTunes.. Reset the phone completely and synced phone again. It's also turned off twice today and when it comes back on its saying searching in the top left corner were your signal and network carrier should be?

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.

IPhone 5 keeps shutting down and needs rebooting even when fully charged?

My iPhone 5 keeps shutting down when left unattended. This requires a full reboot and this doesn't always work either. Sometimes it requires a full reboot several times. Has anyone else had this problem?

I am having the same issue with my iPhone 5s. I travelled to the UK and my phone started having this issue over there (i have turned the cellular data off). I restored my phone last night but when it asked me to set it up again, i chose for it to set up from the back up i had stored on my Mac. The problem is still presistent even though it is shutting down less often. I am going to restore it to the factory settings tonight and see if I keep getting the same issue I will take it to a Mac Genius. However if it works i will let you know
