My phone has been shutting down by itself. Why is it doing that?

My Iphone has been shutting down by itself and its not keeping a charge either i use to keep battery life until at least the end of the day, thatas even when I close out my apps. Even Siri start talking on its own. Whats the reason for all this?

The iPhone can shut down by itself when the battery is too low. Don't know if you have a malfunction that is running continuously and as such draining the battery ...or if you just have a warn out battery.

My iMac has been shutting down abruptly

My new iMac has been shutting down abruptly the past week and after that I have to wait several minutes to try and see if it will turn on. At first I thought it was overheating, but even after being on less than an hour it shuts down. Does anyone know the reason why this is happenig? Oh, and I was just browsing on the internet, there were no weird programs runnig and the anti virus scan says it's clean.

Back up all data immediately as your boot drive may be failing.
This diagnostic procedure will query the system log for messages that may indicate a hardware fault. It changes nothing, and therefore will not, in itself, solve your problem.
If you have more than one user account, these instructions must be carried out as an administrator. I've tested them only with the Safari web browser. If you use another browser, they may not work as described.
Triple-click anywhere in the line below on this page to select it:
syslog -k Sender kernel -k Message CReq 'GPU D|I/O|nspace-h|n Cause: -|timed? ?o' | tail | open -ef
Copy the selected text to the Clipboard (command-C).
Launch the Terminal application in any of the following ways:
☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
☞ Open LaunchPad. Click Utilities, then Terminal in the icon grid.
Paste into the Terminal window (command-V).
The command may take a noticeable amount of time to run. Wait for a new line ending in a dollar sign (“$”) to appear.
A TextEdit window will open with the output of the command. Normally the command will produce no output, and the window will be empty. If the TextEdit window (not the Terminal window) has anything in it, post it — the text, please, not a screenshot. The title of the TextEdit window doesn't matter, and you don't need to post that.

When I turned my Macbook on and signed in, it has been shutting down automatically and restarting itself immediately after opening the desktop. The error message said, I'd shut down my computer unexpectedly. How can I get it to stop shutting down on me?

Since downloading OS X Mavericks, my computer has been shutting down midway of starting up. Please help! The problem began after downloading the software free update. Now when I start my computer, it will starts up normal but when the desktop appears, there will be an error message that I shut down my computer because of an error and if I would like to open the applications that were open before the sudden shut down I should press continue. Then when I select continue, it will open up another communication window that my computer is restarting because of an error. Then the screen will revert to shutting down and restarting again. This has been going on now all morning. Can someone hlep me on how to resolve this issue?

Very Important, how much Free Space is on your Hard Drive first of all? Click on the Macintosh HD on the Desktop, then do a Get Info on it.
Could be many things, we should start with this...
"Try Disk Utility
1. Insert the Mac OS X Install disc, then restart the computer while holding the C key.
2. When your computer finishes starting up from the disc, choose Disk Utility from the Installer menu at top of the screen. (In Mac OS X 10.4 or later, you must select your language first.)
*Important: Do not click Continue in the first screen of the Installer. If you do, you must restart from the disc again to access Disk Utility.*
3. Click the First Aid tab.
4. Select your Mac OS X volume.
5. Click Repair Disk, (not Repair Permissions). Disk Utility checks and repairs the disk."
http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=106214
Then try a Safe Boot, (holding Shift key down at bootup), run Disk Utility in Applications>Utilities, then highlight your drive, click on Repair Permissions, reboot when it completes.
(Safe boot may stay on the gray radian for a long time, let it go, it's trying to repair the Hard Drive.)
If perchance you can't find your install Disc, at least try it from the Safe Boot part onward.
Do they launch OK while in Safe Mode?

I have a iPhone 4 and lately it has been shutting down randomly when I still have battery left. It also doesn't turn back on, until I plug it in to the charger. But when I plug it in, the low battery sign shows up then comes to the lock screen with 68%.

Macbook Pro has been shutting down unexpectedly

My MacBook Pro (retina 15 inch) OS X Yosemite, which had been very stable since purchased in late 2013 has been shutting down unexpectedly in recent weeks. Sometimes it's caused by Excel or Quicken, other times, it's a mystery. And the whole computer crashes, not just a program. What could be causing this recent behavior?

I found the records using the info on the link you provided. I have had five kernel panics in the last month. Do you want me to post them all here? I've copied yesterday's below:

I'm having an unusual problem with my iphone 4S. When I'm making a call, it suddenly sounds like my call has been invaded by aliens! Why is it doing this? I'm also having problems sending texts. Sometimes it sends sometimes it doesn't.

Could be an issue with your Carrier and/or location...
The Basic Troubleshooting Steps are:
Restart.. Reset.. Restore from Backup... Restore as New...
Try a Reset...
Press the sleep/wake button & home button at the same time, keep pressing until you see the Apple logo, then release the buttons...

I've have just purchased FCP-X, but it is taking a very long time to install. It has been at it for over an hour. Does that seem right? Tahnks.

I've have just purchased FCP-X, but it is taking a very long time to install. It has been at it for over an hour. Does that seem right? Thanks.

It's about a 2.5G file. How fast is your connection? There should be a progress bar in the App Store next to the app. You should also see a progress bar on your computer, depending on the OS.

Old school with CS2. Haven't used in a while and am unable to use the program as it says my serial number is invalid. Customer service tells me the server for CS2 has been shut down. Then they sent me here for help. Does anyone have any advice?

I don't have a clue what I am doing with this. Here is my discussion with Customer Service:
Naresh: Hello! Welcome to Adobe Customer Service.
Naresh: Hi Mary.
Naresh: I understand you have been getting invalid serial number, am I right?
Mary Vance: Hi
Mary Vance: yes
Naresh: Please provide me with the serial number, Mary.
Mary Vance: I provided my serial number here
Naresh: Thank you for the serial number.
Naresh: Please allow me 2-3 minutes while I check your serial number.
Mary Vance: no problem
Naresh: Thank you.
Naresh: Thank you for being online.
Naresh: I would like to inform you that the server for CS2 products have been shut down by adobe since then you are not able to install the product.
Naresh: However, I will provide you the link to download CS2 application. Please visit the following link.
Mary Vance: will this allow me to reinstall Photoshop?
Naresh: Yes, Mary.
Mary Vance: ok...what is that link?
Naresh: Please clcik here to download.
Mary Vance: thank you....trying it now
Naresh: You are welcome.
Naresh: I will also provide you the link for further information regarding the installation of CS2 products.
Mary Vance: the download doesn't have anything regarding installation
Naresh: Please click for the information.
Naresh: I am sorry for providing wrong link.
Naresh: Please click here to download.
Naresh: The 3rd link is for the download of CS2 Photoshop.
Naresh: Were you able to view the download link, Mary?
Mary Vance: what file in that download is supposed to help me?
Mary Vance: the first and 3rd link were the same
Mary Vance: when trying to load from my software, I get the message saying my serial number is not valid. All I need is a serial number that works. Is that going to be possible?
Naresh: Mary, Adobe has disabled the activation server for CS2 applications, including Acrobat 7 and Audition 3, because of a technical issue.
Naresh: So you will have to download the software from the above link.
Naresh: May I know in what OS you are trying to install the software?
Mary Vance: the link sends me to a CS2 help package
Mary Vance: windows 7
Naresh: I am sorry you will not be able to install the CS2 application on Windows 7 since it does not support CS2 version.
Mary Vance: I have had on here for a few years...why all of a sudden would it not work? Illustrator is fine.
Naresh: Okay.
Naresh: You can try downloading the software.
Mary Vance: was the original link that you sent me suppose to allow me to download Photoshop?
Mary Vance: I did try and got the message that the serial number is invalid. Is there any way to get around this or should I throw it away?
Naresh: May I know whether you uninstalled the product.
Naresh: ?
Mary Vance: I did uninstall Photoshop only. Then I tried reinstalling Photoshop only and got the message about the serial number.
Naresh: I check and see that it seems to be a technical issue, I request you to please post your query to the forums so that you will get the resolution from our expertise and I'll provide you the link to visit the forums.
Naresh: Please click here to visit the forums.
Mary Vance: I guess I will try that.
Naresh: Yes, please.
Naresh: Is there anything else I can help you with?
Mary Vance: I don't see where you helped me with this yet, so I guess not!
Naresh: I am sorry for the inconvenience.
Naresh: Thank you for contacting Adobe. We are available 7 days a week, 24 hours a day. Goodbye!
Any help would be appreciated.

CS2 is very old and reached its "end of life" a while back. So probably won't run on modern operating systems. If you can still run it, you'll need to uninstall what you have and re-install with the download link below to activate it.

Dual boot computer restarts by itself shortly after it has been shut down or put into sleep mode

Hello,
I have Toshiba Equium L40-14I (old) and dual boot Vista and Linux.
A few days ago I noticed that while in a Linux operating system and when I put it to sleep (suspend) it would do so, but then immediately come alive again. The same thing happens with the shut down option. In Windows Vista it is the same. It does shut down, but in a few seconds restarts again and shows the normal options of choosing which operating system I want to boot. The computer only stays shut if I pull the power cord (it has no functioning battery) or it I forcefully shut it by pressing the power button for a few seconds.
So far I tried this:
- BIOS: 1. Changed to default factory settings. 2. Disabled wake-up on LAN and disabled wake up on keyboard.
- Device Manager, Network adapters, NIC, Properties, Power management: unticked the option that allows the adapter to wake the computer
- Device Manager: all drivers seem to be ok
- Virus scan: although this is probably not the issue as it happens independently of which operating system I am using. I have not installed any strange programs.
- I started from the Safe mode and then shut down. Same thing happened: it restarted automatically after a few seconds.
- Disabled automatic restart on system failure. It didn't help.
English is not my first language, sorry for the perhaps unclear way of describing this issue. I would appreciate any help. Thank you.

You have done just about everything I can think of. You didn't mention doing a System Restore. If you haven't done one or even if you have, do a System Restore back to at least sometime before this started happening. If the first one doesn't work, try a different restore point and do it again. If that doesn't work, you need to consider a full HDD recovery to out-of-box condition which procedure is fully covered in your User's Guide. I'm sorry I don't have a link for it but yours is not a U.S. machine and this site is for U.S. machines. It appears to be a U.K. model with support covered by THIS site.
BTW, I wish the native Americans who post on here did as well as you have so you have to make no excuses for your English.

IMac won't turn on (has been shutting down abruptly in the past)

Okay, hi everyone.
I've got a second hand iMac G3. It had problems with the hard drive earlier, so that's been replaced...
In the past month and a bit my computer has been abruptly turning off (not completely, the white light of the power button is still on when this happens) with no aparant cause. The screen just goes black like turning of a TV screen and I can't do anything but turn it completely off by holding the power button.
After this happens I would try and turn it back on, almost imedeiatly, but it wouldn't turn on: The power button would light up, and blink just slightly, with a slight tick/beep sound to accompany it. This is only straight afterwards though, if I leave it for a while then boot it up, it will be fine.
A lot of the time this has happened when I've just walked away from the computer without it doing anything, other times it happens right in the middle of doing something..
I haven't followed up the problem due to not knowing what it was at first and lack of time, especially this past month since I've been away overseas.
And now it's the last time it's shut down on me. I tried to start it up again straight afterwards, and of course the power light blinked slightly along with the accompaning sound. Turned it off, tried again a bit later, still didn't work. Now when I try to turn it on I press the power button, it lights up for a second then turns off. So my computer wont turn on, and I don't know what to do.
Hope one of you guys know what the problem is.
I was looking at these threads and someone had a similar problem (http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=1168792&tstart=0), something about the flyback transformer I think, whatever that is. Does anyhone think this could be the problem??
Another thing. Just days ago I was having problems burning cd's (probably still am), something about error code 0x8002006D and not being able to calibrate enough laser power. I don't know if this has anything to do with it...
Thanx for putting up with me, usually it's my dad but he's asleep sick..

No Kittytom is referring to his having found that his iMac wouldn't boot right side up but would upside down. Further circuit disturbance showed that it was bad soldering on the Flyback transformer that was the problem.
Also common were bad soldering on the HV capacitors in the area of the FT. Or just bad capacitors.
If your iMac had cap problems it would exibit that behavior.
Slow breakdown in the insulation of the FT would also act like that.

My ipad has been shutting down, went to do upgrade 6 and the devide locked with the white plug wanting me to plug into itunes. I had to plug my ipad into my laptop. The only way to finally get my ipod to work was to restore to the factory settings.

My ipad has been locking up and shutting down when I'm using the internet. Went to do upgrade 6 and Ipad froze wanting me to plug into itunes. I hooked ipap up to my laptop to do upgrade, but the ipap was still frozen, I had to restore to factory settings, unfortunately I have lost my pictures. Is there anyway to get the pictures back?

Why does Photoshop Elements 11 uninstall every time after my computer has been shut down/restarted?

Every time my computer is shut down and I go to use photoshop, I have to reinstall the program completely. The icon is still on my computer screen but it's not downloaded. Please help!!!

This has nothing to do with Adobe. You are running with insufficient user privileges and are not allowed to make permanent changes to the system. Make sure to install with admin priivileges and also tame system restore and otehr security functions.

The phone seems to shut down by itself, and won't start up w/out pressing power and home button

I shouldn't have to reset the phone to start it up. What is triggering this?
The phone will be shut off (pressed the power button on top). Normally, I just press the same button again, or the home button. Sometimes I have to reset the phone. It is a 4s with iOS 5.

Is there anything at all on the screen? Try this procedure:
Plug your device into the original charger & block in a wall outlet and leave it alone for a couple of hours. Then, while it is still plugged in, restart it by holding down the home button and the power button for 10-15 seconds until you see the Apple, then let go.

Hey lulucountry22,
Thanks for the question. Based on what you stated, it seems like you want to find a document on a guest user. I would recommend that you read this article, it may be able to help you isolate or resolve the issue.
OS X Mavericks: About users, administrators, groups, and guests
Files created by a guest are stored in a temporary folder, but this folder and its contents are deleted when the guest logs out.
Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.
