My iphone will shut off and then turn itself back on

I plugged my Iphone in( at60%) and then made a facetime call during the call I noticed my phone was still stuck on 60% after the call I unplugged the phone,plugged it back in nothing happend. So then I hard reset it and it said I had 97% then I decied to turn it off and back off and it went down to 92% now it keeps randomly shutting itself off and turning itself back on every 5-10 minutes. I tried restoring it but Itunes says it cant connect to the update server and to try again.What do I do?

You should try backing up the data, restoring the device as new and try if that solves the problem. NB: set up as NEW device, don't restore with backup, because a software issue will also be in the backup. If the issue persists after restoring as new, the device needs service.

My Iphone 4 shut off and wont turn back on, will a reset wipe my Data?

My Iphone 4 shut off and wont turn back on. If I do a reset with the power and home buttons will I for sure lose all data that hasn't been backed up on my computer in the last week?

No.
A reset is very similar to rebooting your computer.

IPhone randomly shuts off and wont turn back on again.

Hi,
I have a problem with my iPhone 4. It randomly shuts off and wont turn on again until i plug in the charger. This happens at least once a day and is extremly annoying and i can´t really use it anymore. I´ve tried a reset but with no results. Please help me out, thanks

Hello again,
I know there been a while, but I just need to tell you this
I tried a restore and it didn´t work out. The same problem just continued and i started using and old phone instead. A couple of days ago I read something about ios6, and I thought: Why not try it on my iPhone that I don´t use? I installed ios6 and since then the phone have worked perfectly, except for one single hangup but then it was just to restart it. Ios6 beta 2 is actully really stable. I mean, now at least it´s a fully functional phone.

HT1688 My iphone 4 shut off and wont turn back on.

My iPhone 4 shut off and I am not able to get it to turn on. Is there something I can do to troubleshoot it?

Assuming it's not a dead battery, hold Sleep/Wake button and Home button until the Apple logo appears.

In that case, it's time to get the device replaced.
Out of Warranty replacement is $149US for the iPhone4.

My iphone 4 shuts off and won't come back on and sometimes when i send a text the other person gets a blank message. Just got this phone and really don't want to put up with a bunch of problems

I just got the i phone 4 on Friday and it has shut off and not come back on twice. I was able to get it to come on by holding the top button down for a few seconds but i don't want to have to do that. Also, i am having a problem with texting, i will send a text and the person on the other end says that I have sent a blank text. Just need to know if this is something that is going to continue because if so then I will take it back and get a Droid

Assuming the phone isn't jailbroken, the basic steps (as needed) are:
Restart phone (you already did this)
Reset phone
Restore phone in iTunes using a backup
Restore in iTunes as new, without using a backup
See appendix B of the User Guide for details
http://manuals.info.apple.com/en_US/iPhone_iOS4_User_Guide.pdf
If your phone is jailbroken, this is the most frequent cause of the problems you described. Restoring could permanently brick the phone.
Note that your iOS is old and the current version is 4.2.8. It's odd that it wasn't updated when your activated your phone in iTunes, being that you got it last Friday.

My HP Photosmart will not print anything until I turn it off and then turn it back on.

I have a HP Photosmart Model C-309a Product Number CC335A
All of a sudden, my printer stopped working and refused to print anything sent to it unless I actually press the power button to turn the printer off. Then if I press the power button again to turn it on, it prints the document from the print spooler. I have no idea what caused this or how to fix it. You suggestions are very much appreciated.
Thank you.

markymarc99,
Lets start with checking out our software/drivers to eliminate them as a possibility. Download and run the print and scan doctor located here:
http://h10025.www1.hp.com/ewfrf/wc/document?docname=c03275041&cc=us&dlc=en&lc=en
It can fix a lot on its own and if not give a better idea of what is going on.
Best of Luck!

My Iphone 3gs shuts off and on by itself several times.

I bought a Iphone 3gs from a friend and it has no service on it yet. Anyways it turns itself off and on several times through out the day would not haveing and service cause this issue? Also when i plug it up to the computer and try to sync it with itunes it continuesly does it over and over. Could i get some help please

hey ive had this problem too!....i took it to the apple store and they said the 3gs is now "old" and i need a new one and it may be the battery, i changed the battery but that didnt make a difference!...ive found that its a problem with the software and im in the process of trying to fix it myself...troubleshooting and resetting the settings back to factory settings may just do the trick!

When I shut my iphone 4 off and then turned it back on it said it need restored. But when I tried to restore it on itunes it said it couldn't go through with the task. What do I do?

What do I do?

Has the phone ever been jailbroken or hacked in any way? Has the computer you are using ever been used to hack any iPhone, or downgrade one with a utility such as tinyumbrella? If so the hosts file on your computer is corrupted, and you will have to fix that.
This problem has also been reported by people who tried to install a bootleg copy of iOS 5. Could this be your problem?
If none of these apply your security software may be blocking access to Apple's activation servers. Try disabling it or using a different computer. And you can always take it to an Apple store if convenient and they will restore it for you or fix it if it's broken.
