My iPhone shuts down randomly and the only way to turn it on is to reset it, why?
It only turns on if it is charging and I don't know what's wrong it's been doing this since I bought it.
Make sure the battery is charged.
If it's not a battery issue, restore your iPhone.

My iPhone 4 shut down randomly and the lock button is broken, it has happened before but I just called myself and it turned on. It also wont charge or connect to my computer, how do I restart it?
Make an appointment at an Apple Store to have your device examined by a technician. Or contact Apple Support.

My iphone shuts off randomly and the button is too sensitive. Like I don't even press the lock button and it shuts off. Also when my finger barely rubs over the lock button, it shuts off too. This happened after the 7.1 update. It's on the iphone 5. Someone help me. I just want to fix this. Maybe if it's possible I can disable the lock button.
The lock button does not turn OFF the iPhone. It will give you a screen with the option to turn OFF the iPhone. Possibly the battery is faulty. Make Genius reservation and take iPhone to Apple store for free battery diagnostic testing and evaluation.

Try a SMC reset:

Try a NVRAM/PRAM reset:

If no joy, take it back, and take full advantage of your warranty!
You also may want to let Apple know about this as well:

(Mountain Lion) suddenly the screen turns black, and I have to use the on/off switch to turn it on. And, the screen turns to zoom, and the only way to return to normal is to close the window and start all over again?
Does the screen go black while you are using the machine? ...or after it has sat idle for a bit?
If it happens while you're using the machine, check to see if a hot corner has been set for sleep. You can do that here: System Preferences > Desktop & Screen Saver > Screen Saver and click the button labelled "Hot Corners..." in the lower right.
If it happens after a bit of idle time, that's normal sleep behavior. The delay can be adjusyed here: System Preferences > Energy Saver.
In either case, pressing any key on the keyboard should bring it out of sleep.
Re zooming -
If this happens while in Safari, and you are using an Apple Magic Mouse, a default setting applicable to it is that a soft double-tap on the mouse will zoom the Safari window. A second double-tap will bring it back.
If it is the entire screen that is zooming, Control plus scroll gesture on the mouse will zoom the whole screen. Repeat with the opposite scroll gesture to bring it back. -
My iphone shuts down randomly and then starts up again spontaeously?
I used it in the rain a few days ago, it also vibrates despite the setting being off.... any fixes please? Thank you
Try "Sleep" from Apple menu.
If that does not help, contact Apple.
Buying a new one is a good idea.

S 4 Shuts down randomly and won't restart
Hello,
I brought and S 4 7/27 and loved it for the first few days. A few days later it started shutting down randomly and the only way to restart is to take the battery out. That works for an hour or so until it shuts down again. I've tried uninstalling all the apps I've installed but I still get the same result.
Any sugestions?
Thansk,
twinsfantwinsfan2013, the software for some 3rd party applications can affect the performance of your device. Although you've uninstalled a few application, the issue may still remain on your phone. I recommend that you back up your device at Verizon's cloud or Backup Assistance and then hard reset your phone if the power cycling issue persists.

Imac shuts down, randomly, all the time
So my imac shuts down randomly all the time, after it turns itself off, u need to unplug it for ages, then it will restart (way longer than it should to reset smc). Even in target mode,
Even stranger is it logs a console message stating, system must shutdown now, shutting down....
I thought it must certainly be hardware issue but what? I have checked all temps, reset firmware, etc etc.....
The logic board has been replaced, so it can only be the psu?? any ideas?I've experiencing the same problem.
If there is a power failure (or the power line gets disconect) I have to unplug everything from the back of the computer and wait for hours till I can turn it back on.
Recently it started to turn itself off..... and then I have to wait for several hours till I can get it to work again..... any tips on how to solve this? -
I have the Iphone 5, and it shuts off randomly and the screen glitches. I have taken it into verizon and had it reset but the problem still continues. Is the only way to fix the problem to get a new phone? Also, why is it if I do need a new phone I can only get a refurbished one when I am paying insurance every month?
Basic troubleshooting from the User's Guide is reset, restart, restore (first from backup then as new). Try each of these in order until the issue is resolved.
If the issue persists, take the device to Apple for evaluation. -
After having shut down after installing updates, when I restarted and tried to open a word doc, it started opening ALL the word docs and the only way I could stop it was by"force quit" . This is REALLY annoying!!
May be it is the Resume feature.
System Preference > General > Number of recent items
Uncheck the box next to "Restore windows when quitting and re-opening apps".

My ipad2 shut down randomly and than start. Problem is remain after reset. What is the solution.
You can try restoring your iPad as new using iTunes on your computer. This will load a new copy of the iOS software onto your iPad.
If this doesn't work you may have a hardware problem and will need to contact Apple Support. -

What you can do to use it is download gfxcardstatus from http:gfx.io and force the graphics to Intel. That will lessen the panics at the expense of graphics speed.
You may be eligible for a depot repair, which is a flat rate of about $310. Ask at the Genius Bar. Take along a printout of your panic. -
When I am in firefox and I go to google and click on a link, it pops up as something else randomly. The only way it works is by coping the link into address bar. I thought it might be google so I went to bing and it did the same thing. it will not go to the link but instead change to livesearchnow or ihavenet.com
It is really a pain as I search google ALOT. So please someone help. I reset firefox once and even reinstalled it once as well as updated it once. Nothing works.Do a malware check with some malware scanning programs on the Windows computer.<br />

my forward text message feature on IOS8 keeps disappearing and the only way I know to make it re-appear is by powering off and on my phone. Is there any other way to fix this?
I should also point out that when I connect my iPhone, it DOESN'T appear as a connected drive on the desktop. Not sure how this can be so, since the iPhone also has a drive and also functions as an iPod if I want it to. I must have changed some setting to achieve this non-appearance, but don't remember what I must have done.
What's the secret?
