My ipod keeps consistently shutting off and turning back on, how do I stop it?

My ipod touch, while watching netflix, shut off and ever since then (2hours ago) has been turning on and shutting back off consistently and constantly. what can I do?

Try:
- iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
- Also try DFU mode after try recovery mode
How to put iPod touch / iPhone into DFU mode « Karthik's scribblings
- If not successful and you can't fully turn the iOS device fully off, let the battery fully drain. After charging for an least an hour try the above again.
- Try on another computer
- If still not successful that usually indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

My LG Spectrum will not stay on, keeps shutting off and turning back on with no signal and shuts off again

Thanks for keeping us posted lizy7796. May I ask did the replacement device resolved the powering concern? Also, how much available device memory do you have after you restored your info onto the new device? If you have any additional questions then as always we're here to help.
Thank you…

Hi there Jackie Silver,
I would recommend taking a look at the troubleshooting steps found in the article below.
iPhone: Hardware troubleshooting
http://support.apple.com/kb/ts2802
Will not turn on, will not turn on unless connected to power, or unexpected power off
Verify that the Sleep/Wake button functions. If it does not function, inspect it for signs of damage. If the button is damaged or is not functioning when pressed, seek service.
Check if a Liquid Contact Indicator (LCI) is activated or there are signs of corrosion. Learn about LCIsand corrosion.
Connect the iPhone to the iPhone's USB power adapter and let it charge for at least ten minutes.
After at least 30 minutes, if:
The home screen appears: The iPhone should be working. Update to the latest version of iOS if necessary. Continue charging it until it is completely charged and you see this battery icon in the upper-right corner of the screen . Then unplug the phone from power. If it immediately turns off, seek service.
The low-battery image appears, even after the phone has charged for at least 20 minutes: See "iPhone displays the low-battery image and is unresponsive" symptom in this article.
Something other than the Home screen or Low Battery image appears, continue with this article for further troubleshooting steps.
If the iPhone did not turn on, reset it while connected to the iPhone USB power adapter.
If the display turns on, go to step 4.
If the display remains black, go to next step.
Connect the iPhone to a computer and open iTunes. If iTunes recognizes the iPhone and indicates that it is in recovery mode, attempt to restore the iPhone. If the iPhone doesn't appear in iTunes or if you have difficulties in restoring the iPhone, see this article for further assistance.
If restoring the iPhone resolved the issue, go to step 4. If restoring the iPhone did not solve the issue, seek service.
Issue not resolved
My issue is still not resolved. What do I do next?

Updated my iphone 3gs to ios 5 and now it keeps just shutting off and coming back on?

I updated my iphones 3gs to ios 5 and now it just randomly shuts off and on. whats wrong with it?

don't ask me why this worked, but it did for me last night. In iTunes, where your device shows up on the left side, I double clicked on it. It then allows you to change the name like you can for changing file/folder names. I changed 1 letter on the name of the ipod and hit enter. I then right clicked on the new ipod name and chose restore from backup. My choices for backup was the original name of the ipod only and not the name i had just changed it to. I told it to go ahead and backup from the old name figuring I would get the same results, but not the case. It restored it with all app, music and pictures with one exception...all of the settings, email setup and information within the apps was lost. Atleast that an easier fix than starting all over. Hope this will work for you guys too with the same issue.

Did software update on iphone 4s and phone keeps shutting off and turning back on

Anybody else having a problem with their iPhones after latest software update?

Try resetting the iPhone by pressing and holding the sleep/wake button and the home button for 10-15 seconds until the Apple logo appears, ignore the red slider. Then turn back on. You won't lose any data doing the reset.

Having to shut off and turn back on iphone6 to use apps and Safari

I Am having to shut my phone off and then turn back on before I can use apps or safar.

Restart: Press On/Off button until the Slide to Power Off slider appears, select Slide to Power Off and, after It shuts down, press the On/Off button until the Apple logo appears.
Reset: Press the Home and On/Off buttons at the same time and hold them until the Apple logo appears (about 10-15 seconds).
Restore: Connect your iPhone to iTunes on your computer, backup, and then select Restore to Factory

IPhone shut off wont turn back on how do I fix it, iPhone shut off wont turn back on how do I fix it

My IPhone screen shut off unable to get it back on, I thought the battery died plugged it in and nothing happened. When you call my phone number it continues or ring like the phone is on Any idea how to fix it and if its not fixable any idea how to get pictures and what not that weren't saved to ICloud off the phone

It sounds like the back lighting is either broke, or in some way turned off in the os. If it is still ringing then I would think that it should connect to itunes and be backed up.
If your not using itunes, download it and backup the phone. Then search for instructions on how to do a factory reset. Hopefully its some sort of software glitch and a reset will solve it, but you will loose anything that hasnt been backed up if you dont sync to itunes first.

My w-fi connection keeps shutting down and turning back on, every few seconds. I don't know what the issue could be? Any suggestions?

The past few days my wi-fi on my iPad has been shutting off and turning back on. This has not been the case with any other Apple product I own. I tried resetting the wi-fi settings already and it didn't work. Does any have any suggestions?

Well, i kinda follow your advice... but I went to the repair guy first. I asked him what did he repaired on my compter : he told me he did all the tests and follow the protocol, and that my computer was fine. Nothing was wrong with it. Yeah, right.
So I called back Apple. That was such a waste of time ! They told me to send it in repair AGAIN. I told them that the only repair center in my town cannot find the problem. They told me to go and make it repair at another center, in another town. The nearest is one hour away. I don't have a car. I don't have time. How am I supposed to get there ? "find a friend with a car", she replied.
The girl was realy stupid. Am i gonna waste time going twice to a repair center 1 hour away from home ? Come on... She refused to send me a box to ship it to them for repair. She just kept on telling me i need to get it repair, again and again. She was a waste of time. She wanted me to go back to the repair center that cannot find the problem or pay like 200 $ to get on a bus with my computer and waste 2 days on the road.
I send it back to the repair center in my town this morning. And tomorrow, I'll just go to FutureShop and buy myself the cheapest PC i can find, because i NEED a computer for all my exams and my presentations. And when i'll get my macbook back, i'll juste leave it running on the self and hope it will fail again as soon as possible so I can recall them and listen to them tell me to send it back again in repair... and waste again, more and more time on a computer that never worked good.
This is realy getting ridiculous... They realy don't care at all. They just want me to shut up and get used to it... I just can't wait to see what the repair guy will tell me...

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

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.

I recently got my iPhone 5 unlocked and the other day I updated my phone to ios 7. After doing so my phone shut off and turned on and it said I had no service. I guess it completely wiped out my unlock. I was wondering if anyone knows what I can do!

How, EXACTLY, did you get it "unlocked"? ONLY the carrier it's locked to can authorize unlocking it. Anything else is a hack.
You can not get help here for a hacked phone.
