My mini turns itself on

I solved this problem by using the hold button whenever i turn off my mini. unless i suse the hold button, the mini turns itself on at random times.

Yeah. Unless you slide the HOLD button after turning off your iPod it'll turn back on again because of how sensitive the click wheel is. A slight touch and iPod is on.

  • IPod mini turns itself on

    My iPod mini will be off, untouched (not charging, either) on my desk or wherever and turn itself on over night or during the day. Most any large period of any unattended time, really. But not always, maybe once or twice a week. It doesn't matter if the hold is in the locked or unlocked position, it will still turn itself on and wear down the battery. What can I do? Thanks

    Hi Acfro,
    Welcome to Apple Discussions
    I have noticed this problem as one of my iPods has gotten older. You might want to try Resetting Your iPod.

  • Mini turns itself off

    I am listening a lot to classical music on my I pod. I those recordings there are much silent places in the music. When the duration of this silence is to long the I pod turns itself off. Can I avoid this and how can I do this?

    I've not heard of this before. You're sure the sleep timer is not set?

  • Mini turns itself on

    Hello,
    I fully charged my mini, and then turned it off for the night and locked it on "hold". In the morning, the mini, while still on hold, was playing and the battery was half used.
    This has happened twice now, the first time it happened, the mini was completely dead by the time I tried to use it.
    How can it turn itself on when it's turned off, and locked on "hold"? It was in a safe place on a shelf, not touched by anyone. Is this a manufacturing problem? Software? Hardware? I'm not sure.
    Thanks

    oooh, good point - the alarm was on after all
    Thankyou, thankyou!

  • Ipod mini keeps turning itself back on whenever I turn it off.

    My ipod mini turns itself on whenever I turn it off. It's still under guarantee but if I get new one will I be able to download the music from itunes or will I need to start again?

    Are you putting the iPod on Hold using the slider whenever you turn it off? The clickwheel is quite sensitive and a touch will bring it back on. If you were to get another one, as long as all your songs are in iTunes you would just have to connect it to your computer and it would pretty much walk you through the installatation and automatically update.

  • Why does my mac mini turn off by itself?

    My 2009 mac mini turns itself off after a few minutes. This started after a power failure. Might the logic board be fried?

    1. Reset the SMC, as per > Resetting the System Management Controller (SMC)
    2. Zap the NVRAM/PRAM, as per > About NVRAM and PRAM
    3. Boot into Safe Mode, as per > Mac OS X: Starting up in Safe Mode
    Then boot back into normal mode and if it is still turnning itself off...?
    Run the Hardware test, as per > Using Apple Hardware Test

  • Machine turns itself on all the time

    Hi - Ive installed Leopard on 2 of our machines - the iMac, which is (mostly) okay after the transition, and my partner's Mac Mini. The Mini turns itself on every day despite the fact that none of the schedule options are set. It is on the network, although the setting to "wake" for admin is not set. (Im not sure what time it turns on - it's always already on by the time I open the office at 8.30 am). Im now way too put off Leopard to install it on my iBook - apart from the millions of bugs and glitches Leopard has, making my iBook Tiger my only stable machine, I really cant afford to have a charged laptop turning itself on all the time!
    Any ideas?
    Thanks,
    Rod

    You might try resetting the PRAM and power management unit of the computer. To reset the PRAM, hold down opt-cmd-P-R on boot until the thing chimes twice, then release the keys and let it boot normally. To reset the power management unit on the Mac Mini, follow the instructions on this page: http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=300574

    My mini turns itself on even when the Hold button is on, and I also have the alarm and calendar turned off. I've done the 5 Rs, retuned to factory setting, etc. No help. The thing is possessed, I tell you! Started happening about 2 weeks after the warranty was up. Go figure.

  • Ipod mini keeps turning itself on???????

    My 4GB ipod mini keeps turning itself on. It does this even when it is locked. This is a real pain as it keeps running the battery completely flat.
    Can anyone suggest why this happens & how to stop it?
    Many thanks.

    Your welcome. Another thing I ought to have mentioned is to check calendar events also. : )

  • My iPod mini keeps turning itself on.

    Well my iPod mini keeps turning itself on although i've turned it off and put it on hold. It's draining the battery and it's annoying me as when i go to use it i can't because the battery is flat. Does anyone know why it's doing this and can help me please?

    Sounds like an alarm is set.
    Go to Extras>Clock>Alarm Clock and turn off the alarm.

    If you have restored to factory settings and started as new, there is nothing more that you can do on your own. Make an appointment at an Apple Store and ask them for help. You might have a hardware problem and the Apple Store techs will be able to determine that.

  • My Mac Mini Turns on by itself or is it  The Ghost In The Machine?

    Lately I have been noticing that my Mac Mini is turning itself on after being off for several hours. At first I thought it might be another member of my household, but when I questioned they all about they all state they did not turn it on. Now unless I have ghost in my house that are big Mac fans I can't figure out why or how it can be turning itself on. As far as I know there have been no power outages in my area that might have caused it to think it needs to be turned on when the power came back in, and besides why would it need to restart after a power outage if it was already off when the power went out and came back on.

    Check your Energy Saver settings in System Preferences. Under Schedule there may be a startup time someone set, which is causing it to start up at the odd time of the day.
