My ipad shuts itself off frequently - why

I will be emailing, or web surfing, and my ipad shuts itself off.  I have tried reloading everything, I have taken it out of its case, I would like any tips on how to fix this.
thanks

Try this:
1. Close all apps in the Task Bar. Double-click the Home button and hold apps down for a second or two. Tap the minus sign to close app.
2. Hold the Sleep and Home button down until you see the Apple Logo.

  • Why does my iPad shut itself off with a charged battery?

    My iPad fades out with no warning and a fully charged battery.   I have to turn it on and push the home button a couple of time for it to comeback on...sound familiar to anyone?  What causes it and how can I stop it?

    I don't think so because I am always using it when it happens.  I thought auto lock kicked in when you leave it idle for however many minutes you set it for.  But I will increase the minutes and see if it helps.

  • 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.

  • Why does my nano iPod 7gen shut itself off during a pause when running

    I am using the nano ipod 7th generation and nike plus. It  shuts itself off if I have hit pause during a run while taking a break. This is very frustrating because I have to start my run over, it also shows up as two runs in one day. How can I fix this?

    I usually hit the pause. I have tried putting it to sleep as not to bump the resume workout on the face. This doesnt help either. After a few minutes when waking up the ipod it shows the nike screen and I have to start a new workout.

  • Solution to the Droid Incredible frequently shutting itself off?

    As with many other posters I was perfectly content with my droid incredible until recently. Now it just shuts itself off whenever it feels like it (while I'm on the phone or when its just sitting on my desk, etc). This past week my once or twice a day shut off has picked up to 5-6 times a day. I can't tell you how many times I've tried factory resets or changing out my battery or any other solution you can imagine to no avail. I'm desperately seeking any advice on fixes to this solution.
    Thanks in advance!

    I'd like to give some advise if you have taken the time to do a master reset already. There are really only 2 other things I can think of aside from replacing the device.  One thing I would like to make clear before trying the troubleshooting steps below is ensure that your issue is not caused by an application. I don't know how many customers have done a master reset and then immediately have redownloaded all of their apps.  The issues immediately came back which isn't surprising if the issue is caused by an app.
    1) Remove the SD card from you device. The phone may be trying to access files that have been corrupted and is glitching out because of this. If you find there is a problem with your SD card, I suggest backing up any pertinent info on a computer and formatting the SD card. Do the same for phone storage memory too.
    2) Ensure your software is up to date. The current software information can be found here: Incredible Software Update.
    If none of the above has resolved your problem, I recommend contacting the Warranty Center at 866-406-5154 or DM me with your name and number. I'll call you as soon as possible.

  • TS3274 IPad turns itself off when I'm viewing pages

    Something new that I haven't seen before is a Debug Console and it will tell me I have messages. When I click on the messages there are HTML, JavaScript or CSS error messages. Is this something new? What is causing the errors. Would this explain why the iPad shuts itself down when I am viewing pages?

    Without examples to try out here, there are some basic troubleshooting tips you should try.
    1. Restart the ipad. Hold the top button till you see the swipe to turn off, swipe to turn the iPad off and then restart.
    2. If a restart doesn't fix things, try a reboot by holding the top and home buttons simultaneously until you see the apple logo.
    3. Try a different wifi network. You may be having issues with your connection.
    4. Go to Settings -> Safari and clear the history and cookies and data. Also open the Advanced section and make sure Web Inspector is turned OFF.
    5. If these steps don't fix the issue, you may need to do a restore using a computer with iTunes installed.

  • Hp laserjet p1102w networked printer shuts itself off

    Hi, I have a networked (not wireless network) printer, which is plugged into a computer that is always on. However, it shuts itself off randomly, even though I have set it to never do so. This means that users must walk over, turn the printer on, and occasionally restart their computers before they are able to print, which sometimes causes them to lose work. Occasionally the users will also receive a message like:
    The printer spooler on the server was not responding
    Which means someone must reset the server spooler before it will print. 
    I have also set it to go into power-save mode at the longest interval, one hour, but it frequently goes to sleep within minutes of a print-job, often sparking the above issues. 
    If there is anything that I can do further to keep from forcing the users to constantly turn it on, or to keep from having to restart the spooler every day, that would be great.
    I am working with machines using Windows 7 and 8, and with a Windows Server 2012.

    I got to this screen by going to the web interface by typing the printer's IP address into a web-browser's address bar.
    Sorry for the delayed response. I will do my best to assist you when I get home.
    Don't forgot to say thanks by giving "Kudos" if I helped solve your problem.
    When a solution is found please mark the post that solves your issue.

  • What would cause the original I Pad shut itself off while playing games or online? it is not a battery issue or time issue. When I turn it back on it goes to were I was  when I was online ,but have to start games over.

    What would cause the original I Pad shut itself off while playing games or online? it is not a battery issue or time issue. When I turn it back on it goes to were I was  when I was online ,but have to start games over.

    The original iPad has a slow processor and only 256 MB of memory so it often runs into low-memory failures.
    Double click the home button and dismiss all of the recents - I do that weekly.
    Then reboot by holding both the power and home buttons until the apple logo appears, ignore the red slider - I also do that weekly.
    Both seem to help to reduce the low-memory faults that occur.

  • Shutting Itself Off When Plugging It In

    Alright, new problem: after doing the upgrade and having issues, then downgrading, the contacts duplicated AGAIN so I decided to plug it in and restore them. Guess what? Every time I plug it in, the phone shuts itself off. If I plug it into the computer, or the normal charger it does this. Ugh.

    Let's first try the following document:

  • Imac shuts itself off

    I have a 6 year old imacDV w/OS10.2 on it. Lately it has started shutting itself off while using it. When I turn it back on, the clock is always reset to December, 1969, at 6:02. Any ideas???
    I usually leave the computer on 24/7 and it has worked flawlessly since I bought it.
    Thanks!

    Hi,Welcome to Apple Discussions.
    The clock is resetting due to a defective internal battery (The battery powers the date/time info when you disconnect the iMac from the mains electricity supply). After 6 years you could expect this battery to be dead.
    First reset the power management unit - follow the instructions in this document (Trouble Shooting Page 9). To replace the battery (Trouble Shooting Page 13) you'll need to crack the case on the iMac instructions are further down in that PDF.
    I'm not clear why it's shutting itself down unless it's set to do that. Check the settings on Apple Menu > System Preferences... > Hardware > Energy Saver > Sleep tab > 'Schedule' .

  • Satellite U400-14B shuts itself off and now it wont start up

    Hi
    just got a new Satellite U400 this week.
    Was working perfectly the first few days, then last night, it just shuts itself off and now it wont start up.
    I press the on button and the row of lights next to it light up, but nothing happens I dont even get as far as the Toshiba screen.
    I have tried many things. I left it plugged in overnight, tried taking the battery out and no result as of now.
    The little led lights on the bottom indicate that there its plugged in, the battery is white not orange, when pressed they all light up again only for a split second.
    The only thing I can liken this too is when a car wont start and you keep turning and turning the key, well in this case pushing a button, and nothing happens, the fans dont whir or anything...
    help please...

    Has extra Memory (RAM) been installed? Try removing one Memory Module and try a different Memory Slot.
    If bad memory is not the problem, then there is not much else you can do except send it to an ASP for warranty repairs.

  • IPhone constantly shuts itself off randomly after 3.1.2 upgrade

    So I decided to upgrade my iPhone 3G to the newest software when it was first available and now, inconsistently, it has been shutting itself off.
    All I would do is lock the phone, such as after sending a message, and place it in my pocket. When I check it again, I realize it will not turn on, and have to fully power on the thing.
    Is this a normal problem? What can I do? Should I downgrade? Is that even possible?
    I would just like my iPhone to work like it should, all help is appreciated greatly.

    How can I set it as a new iPhone? The last time I reset all the settings and plugged in my phone, all of the information synced itself very quickly, I didnt have an option to restore as a backup or set up a new phone.
    You seem to be confusing reseting the settings and restoring the phone. See this Apple support article - Restoring your iPhone... section. (This is also clearly described in the User Guide - bookmarked in iPhone Safari):
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1414
    I aslo recommend disabling automatic syncing when connecting your phone. This can be selected on your device summary page or set globally for all devices.

    It could have powered off. Try holding the sleep button down for a few seconds until the apple logo appears to restart it
