Marine78,
Have you added any card to your computer, or replaced any hardware? What power supply do you have?
A PC may shut down when something draws additional power if either the USB port is not connected correctly, or if the power supply is already overloaded and trips its own circuit breaker.
If it is restarting, and not powering completely off, do you happen to have a Logitech Webcam installed or previously installed? If so go to Logitech's website and download the latest version of their software. Many Windows XP or Vista computers will automatically restart if they get a blue screen. You could be getting a blue screen because of a software conflict with another device. This is discussed in this knowledge base article:

Hope this helps,

Yoga 13 Turns Off When Plugged In And Won't Charge

I've had my Lenovo Yoga 13 for about a year. When I plug in the laptop to charge it, it turns off and will not charge while it is off. The only way for me to turn it back on is to unplug the charger.
So I guess this is two issues in one: my computer turns off when it's plugged in and it will not charge. Do you guys think it could be caused by a bad charger or do you think it has to do with the computer? Has anyone had this happen to them?
Thanks!

What happens is as soon as I plug in the charger the computer turns off. The battery does not charge while the charger is plugged in and I cannot turn my computer back on until I unplug the charger.
When I first noticed this behavior the battery was about 80% charged and I was able to turn the computer on and use it for multiple hours, so I don't think the battery stopped working. It wasn't until I plugged my computer in again when it was charged under 10% that I realized what had happened wasn't a one time thing; my computer turned off again. I waited about an hour before I unplugged the charger and turned my computer on again. The battery hadn't been charged at all that whole time.

IPod classic won't turn off when plugged into a home theater dock; what's up? will it hurt to leave it on all the time?

I bought a new iPod Classic and it won't turn off when plugged into a home theater dock. Is this normal and will it hurt the iPod if i leave it on all the time?

Hi there,
How old is your Classic? Often, after a couple of years, rechargable batteries begin to fail, especially after such a long period of inactivity. This happens with any gadget with this type of battery.
Try leaving it plugged in for 24 hours, and try again, to rule out that it isn't just really low on charge. If this doesn't help, it may be a good time to buy a replacement. New iPod Nanos and Touches will be released this October.
Below, I've linked to an Apple website which explains rechargable batteries, and why yours may not be working.
Apple - Batteries
I hope this helps, and I hope upgrading your device will not feel like an unnecessary expense. Let me know if you have any more questions,
Nathan

Why does computer turn off when battery 40%?

Why does computer turn off when battery around 40%? I have tried replacing the battery.

Replacing as in "removed, re-installed", or "bought a new one"?
This is my display from "Apple menu > About This Mac > More Info > Power"
"Normal" means no issues.
I will stop now in case you have actually put in a *new* battery ...

Computer turns off when mini display connector is plugged in

Every time I plug the mini display connector, my computer turns off and I have to restart it.
Any idea how to change that?
Thx

Yes, it's the mini display.... whatever its name is, from the apple store... and it used to not do that to my computer

IBook randomly turns off *when plugged in,* how long can my iBook last me?

O Sages of Mac Wisdom,
Help! I've been Googling and looking at forums all over the place for help. I have seen many posts about other iBooks shutting off randomly when they are on battery power, but have not seen any that answered questions about iBooks turning off when they are plugged in. It happened four times in the span of two and a half weeks and has stopped (no incidents for the past two weeks). I have reset my PRAM and PMU. Why would it be turning off on its own when it is plugged in?
Second question: my battery only lasts for about a 45 minutes from a 99% charge. Here's the information on it:
Battery Information:
Charge Information:
Charge remaining (mAh): 1438
Charging: Yes
Full charge capacity (mAh): 1544
Health Information:
Cycle count: 95
Battery Installed: Yes
Amperage (mA): 934
Voltage (mV): 12508
I bought a new battery from ifixit.com, rated at "good" condition, and it will last for an hour until it gets to 75%, then drops down to 0% in five minutes and the iBook goes to sleep. It could be just that they gave me a crappy one, but here's the information on it anyway:
Battery Information:
Charge Information:
Charge remaining (mAh): 5236
Charging: Yes
Full charge capacity (mAh): 5804
Health Information:
Cycle count: 91
Battery Installed: Yes
Amperage (mA): 962
Voltage (mV): 12511
Thoughts?
Final question: I have some extra money now, and I won't after July, when I'm done with my MA and have to break down and find an actual job (also won't have the Ed Discount after July). I want to get the most out of this iBook, but I also don't want to be screwed in a year or two and not be able to afford a new computer. In other words, do you have any estimate on how much more mileage I can get out of this one? Any past experiences anyone has had would be helpful!

Hey steck and Welcome to Apple Discussions,
Why would it be turning off on its own when it is plugged in?
Have you been on the machine when this happens? Are there any unusual symptoms when this happens?
Next:
Download Temp Monitor here and run it:
http://www.bresink.de/osx/TemperatureMonitor.html
report back
There could also be a DC in board problem or a PMU problem.
Battery problem:
Charge Information:
Charge remaining (mAh): 1438
Charging: Yes
Full charge capacity (mAh): 1544
That's about a third of what it should be.
The ifixit battery:
Charge remaining (mAh): 5236
Charging: Yes
Full charge capacity (mAh): 5804
That one should run it for 5 hours. It could be bad.
Did you calibrate it when you got it?

Well with your current situation, there is a big question mark. However I use and continue to use a 14" 1.2 iBook and feel very confident in it. Mostly I know the problems that can occur and have repaired all of them myself. I also repair and donate them to inner city school teachers, since I can get good deals on broken ones (or they're donated).
Sort of like this:

Computer turns off when importing CDs and converting files! HELP!

Hi everyone,
I'm having trouble importing music from CDs and converting files on my computer. The computer just turns off when I do these things and I'm really stuck as to why. Can anyone help?

I just started having the same problem. I was able to import songs from 5 cds with no problem, but when I tried a few more my mac started shutting down about halfway through the import of the song. It doesn't matter how many songs I choose to import, it happens on the first one everytime. Did you find a fix for this?

Computer turns off when I plug Ipod Touch in

Hi everyone,
I was just wondering if anyone could give me some advice. Each time I plug my Ipod Touch into my computer and open iTunes it resets the whole computer. It will keep on doing this until I take my ipod out of the usb port. I tied plugging it into my other PC and accessing the few songs I have on there and it worked fine.
I'm not sure what's going on, Wether its my Ipod or if its my computer (both pc's by the way).
Any help will be much appreciated.

You can start by turning off the caps lock.
You need to try a few things - reset your iPod and check on what is happening with the Apple Mobile Device Services on your computer.
If you don't know how to reset, click the Support tab at the top of the page and then click on Troubleshooting.
As to the AMDS problem, see this article: http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1567

Help!!! my computer turns off when i plug in my iphone

the second i plug in my iphone my computer displays a blue screen and says something about an error and it shut off that second. then when it restarts it says it again until i unplug the iphone and then windows says recovered from serious error or something like that any ideas the phone and the computer work perfectly

Do you have any other peripherals connected to the computer when you connect the iPhone. If so, disconnect them and try again.
Make sure you're connecting the USB cable correctly to the computer. I've seen a few instances where the USB pin on the computer was bent down and the USB cable was connected upside down.
This could also be caused by a damaged photo. If it's okay with you, you might try deleting the photos you've taken with your iPhone and then connect. If you don't want to lose the photos, you can email them to yourself.

IPod won't turn off when plugged into computer! PLZ HLP!

I have an iPod touch 2g, and now whenever I connect it to iTunes, it won't turn off. It will just turn itself back on.

If you are unable to give specifics about the problem or what you need to do, it's going to be rather hard to give you recommendations or alternate suggestions.
As I said, if I recall correctly, the iPod will stay on if it's being charged. But, in case I'm misremembering, are you holding down the button until you see the red arrow that says "Slide to power off"? Have you tried restoring it?

IPhone 4 turns off when plugged in to charge

I have an iPhone 4 that was purchased as a refurb from an Apple store in around March this year. In the last couple of months, it has started turning itself off when it is plugged in to charge. It doesn't matter if I'm using an in-car charger, connecting it to the computer, or plugging it into a wall socket. It will stay on for a while, then if I try to use it while it's charging, it will turn off. To start it up again, I have to do a reset (holding home button and top button down until the Apple icon appears on the screen). It will sometimes do this three times in a row if I carry on trying to use it, so I end up just leaving it off.
Is there anything I can do to stop this happening? In the time it has taken me to write this, it's turned itself off three times because I've been trying to get info off it, and it's getting a little frustrating.
Many thanks!

PB turns off when plugged in?

I fell asleep with my computer not plugged in on my bed, woke up, plugged it in and it wouldn't start. Before i plugged it in, it was showing that it was asleep. I tried restarting and I got it to turn on, but as soon as it completely booted up, I plugged in the power adapter and the screen turned off, the illuminated keys stayed on. When I unplugged the power adapter, it made a sound like it was waking up. I have no idea what to do or what happened to it. Any suggestions? At this point, I'm out of ideas.

ALSO, the fans are really loud when the power adapter is unplugged. Not grinding or anything, just like it is working double as hard. I unplugged it, held down the power button for 10 seconds, and it restarted ok. Caps lock light works and now i'm going to plug the power adapter in...screen goes black, illuminated keys turn off, but the backlight is still on. Plugged in, it is completely unresponsive.

My computer turning off when plugging in my iphone??? Why..
