New ipad constantly turns itself on when locked

Very frustrating. I use the iPad. Push the lock button. Screen goes black. Fold it shut in the Targus Versavu keyboard case and without fail, it will be on after a few minutes. The strange thing is that this doesn't happen all the time, but it's enough to be very frustrating because it definitely affects battery life.
I have talked to Targus and they say it cannot be the case because it does not have magnets that would be activating the lock unlock of the iPad.
I've also turned the Lock/Unlock to the off position in the settings.
Why is this constantly happening????

No. I am just putting it to sleep. Just clicking the lock button on top of the iPad. I don't want to turn it off and on constantly.

My iPad has turned itself of when I swiped the screen

It's turned off a few times when swiping the screen, and then when it turns back on its ok again?? Help!

Close all apps and reboot the iPad. See if that makes a difference.
Tap the home button once. Then tap the home button twice and the recents tray will appear at the bottom of the screen. Tap and hold down on any app icon until it begins to wiggle. Tap the minus sign in the upper left corner of the app that you want to close. Tap the home button twice.
Reboot the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider if it appears on the screen - let go of the buttons. Let the iPad start up.

Ally turns itself on when charging

My new Ally always turns itself on when it charges. I can turn it off manually, but it comes back on within 30 seconds.
If not charging, the phone will power off and stay off.
How do I keep it off while charging?
Thanks,
JRS

With the proper permissions whatever govt agency can access your phone including the camera even if the phone is powered off...so if you are they afraid that they are coming to get you with their mind ray you'll need to remove the battery and store your phone in a lead lined box to avoid "the machines" from coming for you. Woooeeeoooo (scary scifi sounds)
Even with the battery pulled, I have read that these new SMARTPHONES have internal nuclear power sources to prevent anti-government subversives from doing just this battery pull work around. Don't know if they have a fix for the lead box, yet, but I am sure it is just a matter of time.

Why does my 1st gen iPad always turns itself off and goes back to the screen. Whether I'm reading news, iBooks, etc, suddenly it goes off.

If that doesn't help, the battery may be dying and need replacement. See here (tap on Battery Replacement): http://support.apple.com/kb/index?page=servicefaq&geo=United_States&product=ipad
Alternately, might consider start saving for a new iPad. The newest iPad 6 should come out in the next few months. When it does, sellers will want to get rid of old inventory with good deals.

I have the iPhone 4, recently installed ios6 now my phone constantly turns itself off, keeps freezing and then 2 or 3 times in the space of 24hrs it has to be restored to factory settings. This has gone on for over a week.

If all basic troubleshooting has been tried and a restore as new does not resolve, take it to Apple for evalation and possible replacement.

My new iPad mini will not charge when plugged into adapter. Any suggestions?

my new ipad mini will not charge when plugged into adapter. What should I try?

Does the charger get warm at all? Plug the cable into your computer with iTunes open. Does it say not charging.? If it does, the cable is good. The iPad will charge very slowly when pluged into your computer.
The quickest way (and really the only way) to charge your iPad is with the included 10W or 12W USB Power Adapter. iPad will also charge, although more slowly, when attached to a computer with a high-power USB port (many recent Mac computers) or with an iPhone Power Adapter (5W). When attached to a computer via a standard USB port (2.5W, most PCs or older Mac computers) iPad will charge very slowly (but iPad indicates not charging). Make sure your computer is on while charging iPad via USB. If iPad is connected to a computer that’s turned off or is in sleep or standby mode, the iPad battery will continue to drain.
Apple recommends that once a month you let the iPad fully discharge & then recharge to 100%.
How to Calibrate Your Mac, iPhone, or iPad Battery
http://www.macblend.com/how-to-calibrate-your-mac-iphone-or-ipad-battery/
At this link http://www.tomshardware.com/reviews/galaxy-tab-android-tablet,3014-11.html , tests show that the iPad 2 battery (25 watt-hours) will charge to 90% in 3 hours 1 minute. It will charge to 100% in 4 hours 2 minutes. The new iPad has a larger capacity battery (42 watt-hours), so using the 10W charger will obviously take longer. If you are using your iPad while charging, it will take even longer. It's best to turn your new iPad OFF and charge over night.

In rare instances when using the Camera Connection Kit, you may notice that iPad does not charge after using the Camera Connection Kit. Disconnecting and reconnecting the iPad from the charger will resolve this issue.

Phone freezes and turn itself off when the "Ph. se...

I got a Nokia n97 mini 2 weeks ago and the phone works great except that sometimes it would turn itself off and when I turn it back on it lags and freezes. I notice every time the phone freezes and turn itself off when the "Ph. setup" in the App menu is running. Is the device updating itself? How can I make it stop? Everything freezes as soon as the Ph. setup starts running.
I try waiting it out (if the phone is setting something up it shouldn't take more than a few minutes) but I leave it there for several hours and it's still frozen.
Thanks for reading -sorry if my English sucks-

FYI: Siri can only do certain things when locked. It will not do anything that requires the iPhone to be unlocked (without first unlocking the iPhone).

Ipod constantly turns itself off and requires a restart

I have a 1st generation Ipod Touch 16GB and recently it has begun turning itself off when i'm doing something such as listening to music or using an app and when i turn it back on the Apple logo appears for 2-3 minutes and then the date and time is reset to 1st January 2000 00:00am. I have had it less than a year so it's still under warranty but i don't have the receipt. Any tips on how to fix it are much appreciated.

If that's the case, I'd say call Apple for help processing a return. Can you find a credit card transaction showing the purchase? I get emails from the Apple store when I buy my iPods. I get a receipt at the store, PLUS I have them email me a copy. Good luck

Hi,

Move the Safari app from the Desktop to the Applications folder.
Restart your Mac.
That's why you see this:
When I try to do the updates my computer says it has ready it goes through like it is downloading them then at the end it says some of the files could not be saved to "/" files.
After your restart your Mac, click the Apple  menu (top left in your screen) then click: Software Update ...

Samsung Convoy - keeps turning itself off when closed up

I'm having trouble with the Samsung Convoy turning itself off, when I close it to hang up. Sometimes it does it, sometimes not. If I try to slowly and very gingerly close it, it may not turn off. Is anyone else having this problem? It's very annoying as I find out my phone has been off and I didn't know it.
Thanks!

Hello tdugdell,
I know it can be a bit frustrating when your device powers off without your knowledge. Since you do have the most recent software I would first suggest to try a different battery in the device to help confirm if the root cause is device or simply the battery. If you do not have an additional battery we can see if your nearest store has a test battery to try and if not we can see what warranty options you may have. If the test advises this is not a battery issue I would then suggest completing a factory reset. Click here to follow visuals to do so. This process will erase everything on the device so please back up if desired. Click here to for visuals to back up your contacts. Once the reset is done the device will power cycle and prompt a re-activation by dialing *228 send option 1. I would like for you to test the device before you add your contacts back via backup assistant if you choose to use the application. If the test(s) is successful then proceed with adding your contacts and retest after. Please advise me of the results, per the suggestions above, if you need additional assistance. Thank you.
