N8 Automatic switch-off. Help please

whenever i start some of my phone applications, like web, make a call, receive a call, start maps, my phone automatically switches off even if the battery is full. And when i restart my phone, it switches off again after displaying the nokia logo or just after the main screen is displayed. The same process continues repeatedly. Is my N8's battery not working correctly???? Do i need a new battery?? plz help!!

Forgot to say, if you can, try a new SIM card as there have been reports of similar problems with old SIM cards.
Also if Nokia care have wiped their hands of you it may be worth going through the hard reset, reinstall / change firmware process.
Google the process it can't be discussed here.
N95 (RM159) V31.0.017, N8 (RM596) Belle 111.040.1511

Device get Automatically switched off and unable to turn on ...

Hi experts,
I wish u happy new year to everyone..
I am facing a critical issue in my bb torch 9860,device get automatically switched off and unable to turn on the device by switching the power button .after doing hard reset it turns on ....iam missing calls .please help me how to trouble shoot it

It's obviously a software issue so I suggest jumping right to an OS reload. Battery pulls are always a good place to start but after that you should reload the OS.
To do this, plug your phone in to your PC and open BlackBerry Desktop Software. Click Device at the top of the software then Restore. Choose the most recent restore point and load it.
Let us know if that helps you.
- If my response has helped you, please click "Options" beside my post and mark it as solved. Clicking the "thumbs up" icon near the bottom of my response would also be appreciated.

My iphone does not automatically switch off the display light when locked. How do I fix this?

I have an iPhone 5 with iOS 8.2 software.
My iPhone does not automatically switch off the display light when it is locked. Therefore, if I get an e-mail/text message/pop-up from other application, the light just stays on, which obviously drains my battery.
The problem just started yesterday, and it has been a couple of days since I updated the software, so I wouldn't think the software update is the problem.
I have tried restarting the phone (using home and lock button), but that did not work.
Something else that seems weird is that once in a while, a blue beam rolls over the screen from one side to the other. I don't know why it does this, and have no idea whether this is related to the display light issue.
I hope someone is able to help by telling me what to do in order to get my phone to act normal again.
Thank you x

Restart your device by holding the home and power button until the Apple logo appears. You will not lose any data.

Imac automatically switched off???

I installed airport extreme in my old imac g5 and it worked perfectly.
Since I also use my macbook pro, i seldom use my imac G5 until recently. I discovered that after about 3 minutes working, the computer automatically switched off. When restarted, the same problem re-occurs. Has it got anything to do with the installed airport extreme...i dont think so.
Can someone help?

Hi, and a Warm Welcome to Apple Discussions and the Power Mac G5 Forum!
You could try browsing, searching or posting in one of the iMac G5 Forums
http://discussions.apple.com/category.jspa?categoryID=134
where there is some discussion of similar issues.
You could check Applications > Utilities > Console - system.log for entries at around the time of the shutdown.
You could try an SMU reset
http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=301733
There is a repair extension programme which may apply

Good Luck.

hi guys i have 2 ? 1 my daughters iphone is trying to update on my mac cant get it off help please ,,, 2 i have an old apple id and when i try to up date it keeps looking for the password how do i delete this old apple id help

Hi.
I had a similar problem myself. This is what helped me.
I went to the App store app, scrolled to the bottom, logged out of the account, re logged in with my Apple ID. Then went back to app updates. Once I put in my ID password all was fine.

When I connect to wi fi does my 3G automatically switch off. As I seem to be using a lot of my data when using wi fi at home

When I connect to wi to, does 3G automatically switch off my iphone4s as I seem to be using a lot of data even when using wi fi at home ?? Thank you

Hi,
As far as I know, when you have a WiFi-connection all data will go through WiFi and therefor will NOT use your 3G data.
Kind regards,
Hugo

Nokia lumia 620 automatic switch off

My lumia is automatically switch off and then i have to open the battery than again place the battery then its only switch on

Take a look of the battery contacts insde the battery. Due to wrong inserting of the battery the + contact spring may bend (the to metalsprings are too apart from each other). Try to press them together (not to much) or replace your battery.
Do not insert your battery in an oblique angle. Locate you battery parrallel to the battery compartment while inserting it.

Satellite Pro M30: automatically switch off touchpad when i plug a mouse

Hi,
Is it possible to configure the M30 so that it automatically switches off the touchpad, when I plug in a usb mouse?
Thank you

... because of the annoying Cursor-jumping when you write a text and accidently touch the pad. But thanks for your answers. I'll stay with "Fn & F9".
Cheers

VoiceOver
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4064
If VoiceOver is on and you want to turn it off from the device instead of from iTunes, remember that a double-tap acts like a single tap and you need to use three fingers to scroll when VoiceOver is on:
Press Home.
Tap Settings. Then double-tap Settings.
Tap General. Then double-tap General.
Use three fingers on the screen to scroll to Accessibility.
Tap Accessibility. Then double-tap Accessibility.
Tap VoiceOver. Then double-tap VoiceOver.
Tap "On" next to VoiceOver. Then double-tap "On" to turn it off.

Macbook battery not working - computer switching off - help!

My Macbook has suddenly started switching off when the power supply is disconnected, even though the battery should be charged.
This happened after buying a new macbook AC adaptor. My old 60watt adaptor has been getting quite hot, so I did a bit of reading on the web and bought a new 85watt adaptor, which is supposed to resolve the problem. I bought one off ebay - had no idea what I doing really so may have bought a dodgy one? It was £30 which I've been told (now!) is suspiciously cheap! I plugged it in once and all seemed fine then when I removed the magsafe adaptor for a moment my computer just sort of died, well, switched off. I now can't restart it from the battery at all. It works fine with the adaptor (I'm using my old 60watt one again now.) In the moment before I remove my adaptor, the battery looks 'fully charged' then just switches off.
I tried downloading BatteryUpdate 1.2 but it has made no difference.
What have I done?? Can it be fixed? Please help!
PS. Here is my info from the 'power' section within 'About This Mac':
Battery Information:
Battery Installed: Yes
First low level warning: No
Full Charge Capacity (mAh): 4146
Remaining Capacity (mAh): 4146
Amperage (mA): 0
Voltage (mV): 12592
Cycle Count: 236
AC Charger Information:
Connected: Yes
Charging: No

yea just made an appointment right now. kind of upset that this has happened. long time mac user and really haven't had issues with hardware. just can't wait to get my macbook working again! thanks again.

Firefox won't update on my system, even with firewall & antivirus switched off - help ?

OS : Windows 7 - 64bit, with antivirus (Bitdefender).
Downloaded update from you website (version 25.01), switched off Windows firewall, bitdefender firewall & antivirus. Run 25.01.exe - it partly updates (3/4 green bar), then bombs out.
Firefox version currently running on my system is 22.
If I try to update from your pull-down meny "Help" then "about Firefox", after downloading the update, get message that I need to restart Firefox to finalise update, but the process also gets blocked.
Opening Firefox, I'm still on version 22
Hope you can point out how I can overcome this ?
Thank you for your support - love your product !!

Hello,
Certain Firefox problems can be solved by performing a ''Clean reinstall''. This means you remove Firefox program files and then reinstall Firefox. Please follow these steps:
'''Note:''' You might want to print these steps or view them in another browser.
#Download the latest Desktop version of Firefox from http://www.mozilla.org and save the setup file to your computer.
#After the download finishes, close all Firefox windows (click Exit from the Firefox or File menu).
#Delete the Firefox installation folder, which is located in one of these locations, by default:
#*'''Windows:'''
#**C:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox
#**C:\Program Files (x86)\Mozilla Firefox
#*'''Mac:''' Delete Firefox from the Applications folder.
#*'''Linux:''' If you installed Firefox with the distro-based package manager, you should use the same way to uninstall it - see [[Installing Firefox on Linux]]. If you downloaded and installed the binary package from the [http://www.mozilla.org/firefox#desktop Firefox download page], simply remove the folder ''firefox'' in your home directory.
#Now, go ahead and reinstall Firefox:
##Double-click the downloaded installation file and go through the steps of the installation wizard.
##Once the wizard is finished, choose to directly open Firefox after clicking the Finish button.
Please report back to see if this helped you!
Thank you.

HT1414 My iPhone5 got a problem of getting automatically switched off and then automatically switched on. First i can see my screen getting faded to pinkinsh sort of color and then showing vertical grid lines. any suggestions?

My iphone5 got a problem of getting switched off and on automatically. I can see my screen getting faded and then i can see the pink vertical lines before it switches off. After about 10 seconds it switches on again.

Hi sumit1310,
Thanks for visiting Apple Support Communities.
I'd start with these troubleshooting steps:
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 LCIs and corrosion.
Connect the iPhone to the iPhone's USB power adapter and let it charge for at least ten minutes.
After at least 15 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.
Regards,
Jeremy

Password protect the iPhone switching off button, please!

This would make it easier to track the phone in case stolen, And also have the time to remotely remove data in time, before it goes out of reach who knows where and what purpose?
I understand the phone would eventually switch off when no juice on battery, but I hope Apple engineers would code this feature as it would make it harder time for criminals.
My friends phone was stolen yesterday, and It was protected by a four digit code, and a bundle 24- months plan phone. So no one should be able to use it as a phone, or can this be overrided? Anyway, I wish Apple would make even more systems that would make it harder time for the criminals.

Unless the four digit code is successfully guessed-at, the phone should be protected. Your friend should notify the carrier of the loss and hopefully get the plan transferred to a new iPhone.

I have a white screen on my iphone 3G since last night.. I tried a holding home and on/off buttons down but it won't switch off - help

I have a white screen on my iphone 3G since last night.. I tried a holding home and on/off buttons down but it won't switch off - help

Apparently, this is caused by a loose connection between the "guts" of the phone and the LCD screen. While it only displays white, the touch screen will still operate correctly - so if you know where to swipe, you can still power it off or unlock the screen, or touch to answer a call or etc.
With my phone, pinching the top right corner near the power button while pushing the home/power button to wake up the phone, seems to tighten the connection enough for it to work. I have not had to maintain the pinch after waking up the phone, but I do have to do it each time I unlock the screen. I have gotten by for about 6 months so far, and hoping the iphone 5's come out soon!!

My iPhone 4s automatically switch off and cannot turn on. It happened 5 times now

My IPhone 4S with 7.0.4 goes off automatically. It happened 5 times as of yesterday (11/02/2014). I went to repair shop, they connectc to their computer and gives me back within 5 minutes problem solved. I asked them what is the problem. They never revealed. Are they paid by Apple Inc.? What is the problem?

thanks, hope it will help me.
Actually when it is off, I cannot switch on. Once I was in the field and it went off. I kept it idle for whole night and next morning it is on by its own. I dont know why.
Regards
