My iphone randomly turned itself off

My iphone 4 randomly turned itself off and will not turn back on!!! the battery charge was high! so no reason to die! also my iphone will not charge using iphone4 charger or usb on computer!!! have tried holding home button 4 ages and power button and also both at the same time and nothing will work!!!

Try holding down both the power and home button for about 15 seconds. If that doesn't work try plugging it in and doing that it happened to me once and that fixed it.

Is your battery very run down? Try charging it for hours (or overnight).

Randomly turns itself off, and won't restart.

OK, I know the shutdown issue can be fixed with a firmware update, but I think I might have another issue from what I have heard described in these posts.
I have had my macbook since July, so it's 5 months old and I’ve been seeing the following issues for the last 2-3 months.
I have been seeing a lot of random shutdowns (maybe every three times I sit down to use my macbook) with no error messages, fully charged with the AC adaptor plugged in. After it shuts down and I try to turn it on, it will stay on from anywhere from 10 seconds to less than one second before turning itself back off. Is this failure to power back up a different issue from the random shutdowns? They seem to correspond, because I have never had trouble powering up when properly shutdown and dormant.
I found a workaround to get booted when it is failing to restart by simply holding the power button for 5-10 seconds until the macbook beeps loudly, then I let go of the power button and it powers up ok, and I don’t see the random shutdown issue for a while.
I have not yet applied the firmware update; will this fix both of my issues? I'm worried that if the random shutdowns stop, that there might still be a hardware issue (not powering up) on my macbook that won't surface until I am out of warranty.
I also heard that a friend of a friend had this same problem and was given a replacement macbook, which makes me think I have a more severe problem.
Any ideas?

Well... the issue is they may not have been seated correctly to start with... not so much that they would have worked loose. Actually, if you've ever tried to put RAM into a MacBook, you'll see that they're certainly not loose. Your main problem certainly seems like the random shutdown issue. Your start up issue is related to the same thing. Your MacBook gets a funky signal from a temperature sensor and shuts down. It doesn't want to come back on right away because it thinks the temperature issue has not been resolved. When you hold the power button in and get the beep, you are locking your MacBook at a slower speed which has seemed to work for some people temporarily. The firmware update should resolve your problem.
NOTE: If you know your machine will run for a few minutes under certain circumstances, make sure it's under those circumstances that you update the firmware. You don't want to have a random shutdown during a firmware update.

IPhone 3GS randomly turns itself on and off, even when charging

My iPhone 3GS 8GB keeps turning itself on and off randomly like every 5 minutes. It does this even when charging. I've had my phone for a year and haven't had any real problems out of it until now. It died on me last night so I plugged it into my charger. It came on then 5 mins later went off by itself and turned back on. It did this all night. I finally unplugged it to see if that had something to do with it, but it didn't. Anyone have any insight on this or ideas on how to fix this? I'd really appreciate it!
Thanks!

my does the same mate i have tried everything

My Ipod Nano keeps turning itself off halfway through a song, anyone know why this happens?

I have had my Nano since November and have downloaded cds and music of downloads. When I play the ipod halfway through a song the ipod turns itself off. Do you think this is a fault with the Ipod or am I doing something wrong when downloading the music?

Hey jokoboco,
At this point get your ipod service with apple. Have your Serial number ready. Sounds like your iPod has a hardware issue, a kind of defect. Use any of these options:

or

or

Hope this helps.

Ipod nano randomly turns on, pauses music & won't stay off

I got an iPod Nano 6th(?) Gen in August. It didn't get used for another month - loaded it with tunes in September. After about a month of intermittent use, it started to randomly pause music without touching it in any way. I also noticed that, even though the iPod wasn't being used daily, it rarely had enough charge to play for more than an hour. After paying close attention one day after turning it off, it just jumped back on without my touching it. Disturbing to say the least - brand new gift, hardly used and not working right after only a couple months.
It was suggested by online and telephone support that the iPod be reset by holding down the keys; then reset, wiped clean and reloaded in iTunes (phone support). Neither of these fixes worked. Very upsetting.
In November I filled out a service request and sent my Nano back via UPS. I am beyond livid at this point as #1 - their tracking page tells you nothing #2 - I almost didn't get my iPod back as they never notified me it was shipped via FedEx requiring someone to be home to sign for it(!) and #3 - my device was denied repair/replacement because they're saying that the LCI (liquid contact indicator) was pink, indicating that my iPod had been submerged in liquid causing the internal damage. I was told that I had to bring it to an authorized Apple place and they could replace it for me for $65 which is about half of what my husband paid for the thing.
Um, unless this spill or submersion happened right before they sealed it in the box it never got wet. I think this touch-Nano is defective from the posts seen here and Apple is looking for a way to not replace/repair at their cost. Maybe their LCI is hypersensitive?? I might have breathed on it or maybe it couldn't take the humidity in August when it was given to me... If a device is to be sold for use by the average, active person (it has a pedometer for Criminy's sake) maybe it shoudn't be so sensitive to "wetness".

Call Apple Customer Relations-1800-767-2775. Explain to them exactly what you stated in your post.
Good luck!

Ipod mini randomly turning itself on

ok so that probably sounds weird. but i'll turn my mini off using the standard method (Hold the play/pause key til it switches off) and it'll go off so i put hold on for safe measure. a few hours later (this is between 2 and 12 hours) i'll randomly realise that my mini has infact, switched itself back on. nothing has touched it - remember, it's also been placed in hold so i can't turn it on.
any ideas what's going on?

You most likely have an alarm set.
To check go to extras/clock/alarm and set it to off. Check the calendar also, extras/calendar/alarm.

Nano keeps turning itself off and on again (only to apple)

So I went to charge my nano and when I did so it froze, so I reset it and ever since it wont come on properly, it gets to the apple screen (no backlight) then the backlight comes on, then EVERYTHING goes blank and then it starts again. (this behaviour only when attached via USB) If I turn it on unplugged I get the apple logo (no backlight) and If I press select it lights up for a split second then goes of...
What the ????

try to reset it
I know it might not work the first time
but if u keep trying it might start working
after restoring and reseting my nano like a billion times
mine started to work again
I guess all u can do is go to apple if this does not work
or complain and hope that apple will release a new version of soft
if more ppl post about this problem i sure apple will resolve it like the cracked screen problem

Nothing will turn my iphone 4s back on, it randomly turned itself off and nothing will come up on my screen. Not even the apple logo. Tried plugging it in and no response.

I have only had my iphone 4s for maybe two weeks and randomly i didnt use it for maybe an hour and it was like it was off i tried to turn it on and no response. I tried to reset it by holding the home and power button no response. I plugged it in the computer no response. Not even the apple logo. I have tried everything and i have no idea what is wrong or what to fix it.

Hi Danielle_Longwood, Let's make sure your iPhone sees the light of day once again! You did state that you held the Power and Home keys but were they held long enough as per Dark_Waters instruction? Has there been any physical or liquid damage to the device? Was the device originally purchased new from Verizon Wireless? I am eager to work with you further and find a solution!
Thank You,

IPod nano randomly ejects itself while connected with iTunes open

While my iPod nano is connected and iTunes is open, it will randomly eject and diappear from the iTunes left column while songs are being updated. It then proceeds to have errors whenever I connect, saying some sort of file is corrupt.
I have restored the iPod, restarted the computer, and started from scratch. Whenever I try to upload my songs again, it automatically disconnects about half-way through. This seems to be a continuous problem for me.

IPad randomly turning itself on...

I just recently got the iPad 32gb 3G and in the last few weeks, I've noticed that it keeps turning on by itself, when its clear across the room, with no one near it, and it just happened now, with it sitting next to me. Any fixes for this?

Try a hard reset by pressing and holding down on the sleep button at the top of the iPad while holding down on the home button at the bottom, until the Apple logo appears and the iPad restarts. See if this helps.

Anyone have any idea why there is an "error" when trying to activate iMessage? It randomly turned itself off and wont go back on.

This just happened yesterday

I'd start with the following document, with one modification. At step 12 after typing GEARAspiWDM press the Enter/Return key once prior to clicking OK. (Pressing Return adds a carriage return in the field and is important.)

IPhone Display turning itself on and off

Hey Guys,
I'm totally in love with my iPhone 3G but since I got it replaced by Apple (warranty), I discovered that in sleep mode the display randomly turns itself on and off again.
"On" in this case does not mean displaying any content nor the lockscreen, but mysterious black stripes that run vertical.
This occurs every few minutes and is really annoying me.
I tried to completely erase all content and set it up as a new iPhone but the stripes are still there (on 3.1.2) as they were on 3.1.0.
Is there any solution for this or do I have to call Apple Support again?
Greets,
Stefan

If a Restore didn't fix it, it's a hardware problem - contact Apple.

Iphone Battery Problems - Randomly Turning Off

I've had my iPhone 3GS 32GB since around October last year and all has been well until about a week ago. I was on firmware 3.1.2 and my phone started to randomly turn itself off, even when the battery was displaying a high percentage. Before this I had also noticed that my battery seemed to be draining a lot faster than it used to.
In an attempt to fix it I restored my phone to a backup and so it put me onto the new 3.1.3 firmware. I thought this may have fixed it but its made it even worse! Its now turning itself off several times a day and the battery percentage jumps about from extreme to extreme (from say 70% to 5% to 59% etc). I took it in to an Apple store where they ran a diagnostic and it showed that there was no hardware fault.
Has anyone else had problems like this? And more importantly can anyone suggest a way to fix it?
All help will be appreciated

Jymoz - did you resolve this? Last week O2 replaced my 3G 16gb iphone with a 3G S version. I used itunes to restore the new phone with my old phone files & settings. But 4 times in the last 7 days the phone has randomly turned itself off. Either I'm using email, or a game or its just on the home screen and all of a sudden the screen goes black, I get the small circle used to show a page is loading, and then it turns completely off. I wondered if you solved your problem, or if anyone has any ideas about my issue? Thanks for any help.
