my iphone 5 keeps randomly shutting off and won't turn back on unless I plug it in to the charger

I'm experiencing the same issue. It's one thing to have to re-power up but to not be able to do so without plugging in the charger when the battery is substantially full, is a real drag.

Macbook air randomly shuts off and won't turn back on

I have a 2011 Macbook Air that was given to me by my sister. She told me about a year ago she spilled water on the keyboard and it stopped working for a while. She took it to apple and they told her it was going to cost 700 dollars to replace so she decided not to. After a while the laptop randomly turned back on and started working fine. I ended up getting it as a free gift and it was working perfectly fine for about a month and a half until recently it randomly shut off on me. After it shuts off, it wouldn't turn back on through pressing the power button I left it alone and after a day it randomly turned back on and worked like normal. After about 15 minutes of use it randomly shuts down and won't turn back on. I tried resetting SMC to no avail. It randomly turns on for about 15 minutes before it feels like it gets slightly hot and shuts off. Any help will be great!

Try running an Apple Hardware Test:

If you find you can't, make an appointment at an Apple store genius bar. The evaluation will be free and then you should know what the problems are with your MBA.

My iPhone 5s has just shut off and won't turn back on. Please help?

I was just chatting on a app and the phone just froze, went to a white screen with the apple trade mark. Then it completely shut off and wouldn't turn back on. I tried charging it and it still won't turn back on.

Thanks for the advice but I've tried this it hasn't worked. I've held down both buttons together for more than a minute. Do I have to hold them down longer than this?

Iphone randomly shut off and won't turn back on!

My power button has been stuck recently (not a major issue) and my Iphone 4S randomly shut off without any damage or moisture and over half battery life. Plugging it in to the computer or wall doesn't turn it back on.
I don't know what to do. Any suggestions?

This is very bad. It is very difficult to deal with problems without power button function. If there is Warranty or AppleCare make Genius reservation or set up service and take or send to Apple for resolution. If no coverage, clean iPhone charging port very well with toothbrush and Isopropyl Alcohol. If still nothing, next would be battery replacement. If still nothing, replacement of the charging port with flex cable and lower mic. And on and on. If you want Apple to handle this, they offer perfect replacement iPhone 4S for $199.

IMac starts running slow, randomly shuts off, and won't turn back on!

Last night, I was watching some YouTube videos about Swift programming and playing around on Xcode when my iMac (specs below) started to freeze between switching apps, creating files, and running my Xcode project. I tried cleaning it up using both CCleaner and OnyX. Neither of them helped. Today, I was about to run OnyX to see if it could do anything more and my iMac just shuts off. I change the outlet, still doesn't work. Go to another room and try that outlet, still doesn't work. It just sits there when I press the power button and does nothing. No sound, no startup, or anything.
• I verified my hard-drive with Disk Utility before it shut off and it said it was OK.
• I repaired permissions
• I used OnyX's verification tool to verify the hard-drive a couple different ways, every way came back clear.
iMac Specs
Software OS X 10.10.3
21.5-inch, Mid 2011
Processor 2.7 GHz Intel Core i5
Graphics AMD Radeon HD 6770M 512 MB
1 TB SATA Disk
Also there was a storm while we were gone a couple days ago, maybe a surge or something? I'm not an expert so I wouldn't know. My brother's iMac (the one I'm posting this on) works fine though.

My iPhone 4 randomly shut off and won't turn back on.

I got a text message, so I tried swiping the screen to enter my passcode and my iPhone randomly went black. The Apple logo did not appear and the battery was not low at all. My lock button is broken, so I tried hitting the Home button and nothing happened. I plugged it into the charger and nothing happened. I tried my sound dock with similar results. I plugged it into my laptop, and my laptop recognizes it, but my phone stays dark. I've tried holding down the Home button and have tried several times unplugging my phone and trying it in the charger and my laptop. Someone please help me!!

Hi Bel Fiore,
Thanks for visiting Apple Support Communities.
See this article for the steps to restart and reset your iPhone:
iPhone: Hardware troubleshooting
http://support.apple.com/kb/TS2802
Display has no backlight or dark screen
Toggle the ringer switch to see if the unit vibrates. If it does, it could be that iPhone is getting power, but is not displaying any image.
Try turning iPhone off and then on again.
While connected to the iPhone charger, try to reset the iPhone.
If the low-battery screen appears, charge the iPhone.

Plug iPhone into Wall Charger for 10 minutes, it may turn ON itself. If still nothing, keep on wall charger and Reset, hold both home and power buttons for about 20 seconds until the iPhone begins to start.

It probably overheated and shut down. Hold the HOME and SLEEP buttons until an Apple logo appears. This will take 10 to 15 seconds of holding both buttons.

I have not heard of a good reason for this to happen or how to fix. 3 days later my screen lights up and says to connect to charger.... so its back "for now". Best music player on the market when it works.
