MBP Randomly shuts off

You may remember me from such threads as "Electonic "whine" from macbook pro when at idle." I am still waiting on a definite fix for this problem.
Recently though, my MBP has been having random waking from sleep issues. Mainly beachball and black screen or that the power had completely shut off. This is rather annoying as it causes data loss. I tried removing the second GB stick I have last night for more testing.
Today, while on battery power (with 30-40% left on the charge, verified by the lights on the battery), while using the MBP, it would just power off. So far today, I have reset the PMU twice, the PRAM once, and switched the GB sticks. I feel privelaged that it has not shut down on it's own in the last 20 minutes.
Any thoughts?
I am thinking of doing a full backup to a firewire drive, wiping the computer and starting fresh.
Thanks!

Update, As of today, they STILL haven't shipped me a new battery, they claim they are within their 5-7 business days limit still and that it might/should ship tomorrow.
I went into an Apple Moron Bar today and inquired about swapping one out in the store (they had plenty in stock) because the Applecare tech I spoke to said that it might be a faster option. The Apple 'tech' (seriously, he might be really good at ipods, but I doubt he knows how to turn on anything worth more than $300 with an apple logo on it, much less troubleshoot it) claimed he didn't have any batteries in stock.
"Excuse me, but you have a shelf full of them over there"
"I don't have any for replacement, you are welcome to buy another though or I can order one from Apple"
Great, so my MacDesk Pro is still without battery power.

My MBP randomly shuts off at around 40-45% Battery Life

Hi:
About 2 weeks ago, my computer unexpectedly shuts off when it reaches around 40-50% battery life.
I've done all the necessary calibration tests but to no avail. I've had my MBP since 2007 along with the original battery. Is this a matter of the battery dying or are there other bugs in the MBP that I should be worried about. Here are the details when it's at 45% and likely to shut down:
Battery Installed: Yes
First low level warning: No
Full Charge Capacity (mAh): 4328
Remaining Capacity (mAh): 1726
Amperage (mA): -2442
Voltage (mV): 10350
Cycle Count: 747

Welcome to Apple Discussions!
The usual rule of thumb is that a good battery should retain up to 80% of its original capacity after 300 cycles. You have 747 cycles, and are well beyond the 300 cycle benchmark. It is no wonder that it is beginning to show signs of failure. In my opinion, it is just worn out from normal usage and it's time for a new one.
Good luck!

About two weeks ago, it would randomly shut off. It would restart fine, but shut off sooner. Sometimes, it wouldn't even restart. Now, it's at the point where when I power it on, it rarely restarts past the white apple start-up screen. mbp mid 2012 i7

Backup in case your disk is failing.
Start up in Safe Mode; http://support.apple.com/kb/PH14204?viewlocale=en_US
If it boots reliably in Safe Mode then it is probably a software issue.
Reset PRAM: http://support.apple.com/kb/PH4405
Boot in Recovery Mode. (Hold down the Command (⌘) and R keys as your computer restarts.) Run Disk Utility. Click on the upper left system disk icon. Does S.M.A.R.T. report “Verified”? If not the disk is failing and will need to be replaced. Click on the icon underneath and indented to the right, usually called “Macintosh HD”. Repair Disk. It should finish normally with a green OK message. If it does not try to repair it again.
If it will not finish with the green OK message then use Disk Utility to erase the drive and then reinstall OS X. (Be sure you have a backup before erasing the disk. Post back if you need instructions on how to do that.)
If it repaired all errors and is still not booting normally, reinstall OS X.
If it is still sick after all these steps then the disk probably needs to be replaced. You can do that inexpensively and fairly easily yourself or take it to an Apple store for them to do it for you at a higher cost. If it is still under warranty or AppleCare have Apple do it for you for free. Post back if you need instructions on replacing the disk. You may want to have Apple check the health of the system and disk before replacing it yourself.

My mac book randomly shut off

I bought my mac book pro last december and everything goes well until last Tuesday. My mbp suddenly shut off by itslef when I was playing legaue of legend. This never happened before, and that was my first time. After that, my mbp keep shutting down randomly everytime when I played league of legend. Sometimes, it randomly shut off or restart by itself when I was watching a drama on an app called "pps", or even when I was maunally turned off the computer.. This problem really frustrated me becasue I spent like 3000+ dollars on this crap... I brought my mac to Apple Retail store and they told me that they have to replace a logic board in order to solve the problem. They also told me that the logic board will arrive in next 3 to 5 business days. I was like "okay". GUESS WHAT, I JUST CALLED THE APPLE STORE TODAY, AND THEY JUST TOLD ME THAT LOGIC BOARD WILL ARRIVE IN NEXT 6 TO 10 DAYS. WTH.. SERIOUSLY... so they just randomly delayed the date? Our coustomers spent so much money on support and buying iproducts...and... .. and .. sigh..
          So i am wondering if there is any solution/ way to fix my computer, other than waiting so long to replace my logic board. Also, I am wondering if I can replace my mbp for a new one.. since my mac has such a bad technical flaw.
So this is the most recent Console report:

So i am wondering if there is any solution/ way to fix my computer, other than waiting so long to replace my logic board.
No, there isn't.

Why does my Macbook Pro keep randomly shutting off with or without the adapter?

I had this problem before that my 13-inch Macbook Pro would stop working without the plug, and then it started resetting its clock to 2000 every time i rebooted it until it eventually died altogether. I found out that my data cable was bad and got it replaced.
Now, it works completely fine except that it will randomly shut off without warning, even if it's plugged in.
I don't know if it means anything, but I'm currently using a Macbook Air adapter.
It's actually shut off while I was typing this post. Incredibly frustrating.

I think (let others bust my chops if I'm wrong) that the MBA uses a 60W MagSafe Power Adapter, whereas the MBP uses an 85W MagSafe Power Adapter. That could be causing problems.

When unplugged my MBP randomly shuts down and won't start up again

When my MBP is unplugged it randomly shuts off and won't restart. To get it to boot up again I have to plug it in.
Today I was using my computer for about 15 minutes unplugged and it just shut down by itself. I was right in the middle of typing something and it just cut out. The other weird thing is I don't get a low battery warning, nothing, it just shuts down.
Then I press the power button to restart and I get nothing. Even when I pull the battery out and put it back in nothing. I pressed the battery level button and it blinked rapidly on the lowest 2 lights. Keep in mind I was using my computer unplugged for only 15 minutes immediately after unplugging it from the wall after it had been charing for 15+ hours.
This makes no sense. Please help me.

Sounds like a bad battery and/or problem with the PMU (power management unit) and/or memory.
"Half the start up sound" is a bad sign as it means it's failing the normal start up tests (I'd guess a Memory problem)
Reset the PMU and run the Hardware tests from Install DVD1 (hold down d at startup) and see what it reports.

MBP randomly shuts down every few hours (while plugged in)

MacBook Pro 15" Unibody Mid 2009
3.66 GHz Intel Core 2 Duo
Battery has been shoddy for a few years now. Only lasts about 15-30 minutes, but I just use the power cord.
Recently, the MBP (with cord plugged in) has been randomly shutting down every few hours. Immediately prior to shutting down, the status bar says the battery is fully charged, and I can unplug the cord, and there are no issues. When restart the computer, the battery will now say it's anywhere from 0-60% full.
The fact that the MBP shuts down even with the cord leads me to believe it's a logic board issue. If that's the case, what's the best option?
I figure I can either:
1. Replace just the battery and assume the healthy battery will weather any logic board lapses
2. Replace both the battery and the logic board
My local Apple Store said they could replace the logic board and battery for $300 total.
Is this necessary, and if so, is it worth buying the parts and trying to replace myself?

Yes, it's the flat-rate depot repair.
Ok, you've (mostly) answered my primary concern... I was wondering what would happen if it turns out this isn't a logic board issue, and if my $310 would go to waste. The thing is that, right now, my MBP appears to be working perfectly fine until it randomly shuts off, which can take a few hours. So, if the depot replaces the logic board + battery, the MBP appears to be working there (I can't imagine they'll test it for more than 5 minutes), the depot sends it back, and after hours of use, I still have the same issue, I'll be able to get a refund, yes?
If so, I'll probably just opt for this deal since replacement parts on eBay appear to be about the same price.
Thanks for the help!

MBP Randomly Shuts Down!!

I have had my MBP for a year now and everything has been working great until recently. About a week ago it randomly shut off while I was on the internet. The battery was about 60% full and I just thought it did this because it got too hot. Today the same thing happened, however, this time it was not hot. I tried starting it back up 3 times and every time it shut down during start up. Any ideas on what might be going on here and how to fix it?
Any help would be much appreciated!
Thanks

Hi,
Does it happen only on battery ?
If it occurs, contact your nearest CMAA for an exchange, maybe your battery is one of the Sony's Burning series

My iPhone 3Gs randomly shutting off at any given moment. I could be in the middle of a text, a call, or doing some games and it'll just shut off.
Now here's the unique part. When I go to turn it back on, the apple loading screen pops up but it takes somewhere from 3-5 minutes for it to boot up. Then the lock screen with the time and whatnot shows up. From this point on, my iPhone has a chance to shut itself back down and I have to repeat the process over and over again. Most of the time the lock screen flashes and then goes straight to black (shut down) but sometimes I can make it a few menus before it shuts itself down.
The only way to keep the iPhone on is to plug it into a charger of any sort. I'm fairly certain it isn't a battery charge issue because this happens at any % of power and sometimes my iPhone can use up all of its charge and not have this happen while other times I can be at 90-100% and it could randomly shut itself down. What can I do in this situation if some has some solution to this problem please let me know on [email protected] Thanks!

Not sure if this Term is Relevant towards an iPhone but, my iPhone won't Post unless if it's plugged into a Charger.

Macbook Pro running very slowly, randomly shutting off and overheating. No idea what the problem is! Please help!

I got macbook pro about a year and a half ago and up until now it has been running fine.
However, in the last few days, it has been started to run tediously slowly!
It wont allow me to open applications and i have to force quit out of any applications I finally manage to have because they freeze or stop responding.
On Google Chrome, pages become unresponsive every few minutes.
Even writing this post took more than 20 minutes as the laptop kept freezing and the webpage became unresponsive.
It also randomly shuts off and when it restarts, a message comes up saying my Macbook was restarted because of an error.
I haven't downloaded or updated anything that I know of recently that would have caused this.
Ive been reading through some of the fourms on this and I thought it'd be helpfull to post some of the information you may need to help me solve this problem!
Id be very gratefull if any of you could help! Thanks!

Please read this whole message before doing anything.
This procedure is a test, not a solution. Don’t be disappointed when you find that nothing has changed after you complete it.
Step 1
The purpose of this step is to determine whether the problem is localized to your user account.
Enable guest logins* and log in as Guest. Don't use the Safari-only “Guest User” login created by “Find My Mac.”
While logged in as Guest, you won’t have access to any of your personal files or settings. Applications will behave as if you were running them for the first time. Don’t be alarmed by this; it’s normal. If you need any passwords or other personal data in order to complete the test, memorize, print, or write them down before you begin.
Test while logged in as Guest. Same problem?
After testing, log out of the guest account and, in your own account, disable it if you wish. Any files you created in the guest account will be deleted automatically when you log out of it.
*Note: If you’ve activated “Find My Mac” or FileVault, then you can’t enable the Guest account. The “Guest User” login created by “Find My Mac” is not the same. Create a new account in which to test, and delete it, including its home folder, after testing.
Step 2
The purpose of this step is to determine whether the problem is caused by third-party system modifications that load automatically at startup or login, by a peripheral device, by a font conflict, or by corruption of the file system or of certain system caches.
Disconnect all wired peripherals except those needed for the test, and remove all aftermarket expansion cards, if applicable. Start up in safe mode and log in to the account with the problem. You must hold down the shift key twice: once when you turn on the computer, and again when you log in.
Note: If FileVault is enabled, or if a firmware password is set, or if the startup volume is a Fusion Drive or a software RAID, you can’t do this. Ask for further instructions.
Safe mode is much slower to start up and run than normal, with limited graphics performance, and some things won’t work at all, including sound output and Wi-Fi on certain models. The next normal startup may also be somewhat slow.
The login screen appears even if you usually log in automatically. You must know your login password in order to log in. If you’ve forgotten the password, you will need to reset it before you begin.
Test while in safe mode. Same problem?
After testing, restart as usual (not in safe mode) and verify that you still have the problem. Post the results of Steps 1 and 2.

My 13inch MacBook Pro randomly shut off and won't turn on

My 13 inch MacBook Pro will not turn on at all. It randomly shut off while I was using it and now it won't come back on. The light on the charger is faintly blinking... But it is no longer charging. I tried a different outlet, and a different MacBook charger... Nothing. The screen is completely black and none of buttons or keys are responsive. I'm not sure if this has anything to do with it, but it seems that it shut off not even one second after I connected my iPhone to it via USB. I guess I should include that this was the first time my iPhone was connected to my MacBook since upgrading to ios 6.0. Any help or suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Thank you..

jc1122,
by “boot” I mean “use as the disk from which OS X will be run”. At the moment, all that is known is that your computer won’t start from its internal hard disk; my suggestion is to see whether it is able to start from your grey Mac OS X Install DVD, which is bootable (i.e. able to be used a disk from which OS X can be run).

My iPhone 5s keeps randomly shutting off and restarting. It can either be in use or just sitting there and it will turn off. I can't figure out what is wrong.

My phone randomly shuts off. I will be in the middle of using it and it will completely turn off. I can also not have used it all night and I will pick it up and click the home button and then it will flash the apple restart screen. I'm not sure what is causing this as I have only had the phone for about two weeks. It's a little concerning and just wanted to see if anyone knew what it could be without me having to go into the Apple store.
Thanks!

Try This...
Close All Open Apps... Sign Out of your Account... Perform a Reset...
Reset ( No Data will be Lost )
Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button and the Home button at the same time for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears. Release the Buttons.

Machine randomly shuts off and then comes back on.

Hello! Basically whats happening is my computer randomly shuts off (No blue screen just powers off) and then immediately comes back on.
I am running three monitors and a single GPU. This has happened in two different cities (I moved) I have the same surge protector - however, other things on the protector do not reset / go off (alarm clock no battery).
Here are the crash dumps that microsoft said happened. (I uploaded three different ones)
http://www.mediafire.com/download/juwuzck8wpq6j0r/issues.rar
I'm a pretty avid builder but I'm a bit stumped with this issue. The machine will, at random, shut off completely (including lights) and then come back on, during normal activities and gameplay.
The temps do not appear to be reaching astronomic levels, maxing out at around 60-65c (cpu) and 45c for the GPU.
Parts:
cpu - i7 3960x (turbo enabled normal at 3.3, w/ turbo at 3.9ghz)
mobo - MSI X79A-GD45 /// Intel DX79SI (have tried both, it still happens with either, MSI is a new board.
psu - 750 Antec Gold High Current Pro
gpu - MSI Lightning 680 (no OC)
sdd - samsung 840 pro
hdd - Black 1TB
case - HAF 942-x
cooler - x40 kraken
ram - G.SKILL Ripjaws Z Series 32GB (DDR1600)
Here's what I tried
1. Bought a new motherboard (MSI $260) to see if the issue would go away. - Failed.
2. Was able to reproduce the issue VERY quickly when using the OC Genie2 on the MSI board, with teh button pressed, I could boot up OCCT and have it reproduce the issue with the power-off in around 2 minutes of the test. - Failed
3. Attempted PSU and GPU stress test with stock BIOS, tests ran 1 hr+ each with no issues. Shut down my machine and restarted it this morning and the issue came back within 5 minutes of use just sitting at the Windows Desktop. - Failed.
4. Turned the 32 GB of ram to 1600 and enabled XMP, crashed after 3-5 days.
5. Attempting to test each DIMM individually.
6. Issue happened again after about two weeks of not happening.
I've run OCCT for an hour with the "stock" bios and it didn't crash for an entire hour. I've also attempted to use the "OC genie2" overclock function and that triggered a crash within 2 minutes of the run.
Can anyone give me some more things to try? I'm thinking its possible it could be the PSU, but after running OCCT PSU test for 30+ minutes it had no issues.

Iphone 5 randomly shut off and won't come back on

For the last few weeks my iphone 5 has been randomly shutting off. Usually when this happens I just hold down the power and home buttons and my phone reboots within a few seconds. However last night my phone shut off and will not turn back on no matter what I try. It doesn't respond at all when I plug it into the charger and the screen has been completely black the whole time. When I plug it into my computer Itunes starts up and a message pops up saying that Itunes has detected a phone in recovery mode and I must restore it before it can be used with Itunes. I tried to restore my phone earlier, but it got stuck on 'waiting for itunes' and my phone displayed the apple logo and status bar that would not load at all. My phone is now back to being completely black and unresponsive. PLEASE HELP this phone isn't even 6 months old. I am on vacation currently and really need to get my phone working as soon as possible. Thanks!

I followed the steps found here: Error 4005 fix for Windows 7
it actually brought my phone to life .. sort of .. I now actually see an Apple logo on the iPhone screen (before this it was just a black screen at all times, no matter what) and it has a progress bar under it. Only thing is nothing happens after this. It's just stationary.
My iTunes just says Waiting for iPhone while my iPhone is just stuck with an Apple logo and a loading bar below that doesn't progress.
Edit: After doing some Googling it seems like I have the exact same issue as this person https://discussions.apple.com/thread/6431899

Has any one figured out how to fix an issue I'm having. My iPhone 5 randomly shuts off by itself. Then it won't turn on when i try to hook it up to iTunes it says its in recovery mode. so then i hit restore and its been stuck on waiting for iPhone.

This happened after I did a software update on my phone about a month and a half ago. My phone will randomly shut off by itself and wont come back on. I had spoke with an apple repair person over the phone who told me to hold in the home button and then plug it into my computer. When the iphone said that there was an error and gave him a code he suggested that I send it in. So I did and about a week and a half later I get it back and its on. Yet the problem still occurs. It shut off twice in the same day and for several hours would not come on. When it did I called apple again and they ran a diagnostic on my phone and said it was a software issue. So then why was it not fixed? They told me they could not duplicate the problem. And now it happens about once or twice a week now. And its happening right now. I have it plugged into my computer and the apple logo with a bar below it has been on for about 20 min now. And itunes is still saying "waiting for iphone."

Hello Elliiee,
The steps detailed below can help stabilize your iPhone.
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.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 the display turns on, go to step 4.
If the display remains black, go to next step.
If restoring the iPhone resolved the issue, go to step 4. If restoring the iPhone did not solve the issue, seek service.
My issue is still not resolved. What do I do next?
Contact Apple Support.
