Okay so my iPhone randomly shut off for NO reason at all. At 30% and everything. Now it won't turn on, won't charge, and won't be recognized on the computer. Help me?

I was cleaning, and had replied to a message before setting it down. I go back to check it about ten minutes later, and its just off. It will not turn on for anything, won't be recognized, and won't recognize the charger. Idk what to do. Help me?

If the battery is completely dead it may take some time before there is enough power in the battery to display even the rudimentary battery dead icon. Leave it charge over night. Still dead in the morning, take it to an Apple Store.

  • My 3GS iPhone randomly shuts off

    My 3GS iPhone randomly shuts off or gives a low battery indicator even when the battery is not low. I tried going to the Apple store and they were not helpful saying to close out apps using the multi-task button. Even after doing that, my phone was continuing to shut down. First is was around 33%, then 54%, then 76%, then even at 97%. So I had the battery replaced with a brand-new battery.
    Now not only does the phone randomly shut down saying a low battery, but it is not recognizing the charge on the battery. I had the phone on for six hours unplugged and it remained at 100% charge. Then I went to make a phone call on it and after two minutes the phone completely shut off. It would not accept a charge. I had it charge overnight. I tried using different cords. I tried plugging it into a USB port on a computer, using the wall charger, and a car charger. The phone kept saying the battery was dead. Then miraculously then phone started to work a day and a half later, but only for one phone call. Then phone died again and has not accepted a charge for two days now. You would think after two days, the NEW battery would be charged.
    My phone is not under warranty. I do not have the funds to purchase a new iPhone at this time.I know there have been a lot of posts about this, but I have tried every concievable option out there and nothing is working. I'm frustrated. Is this an operating system error and can it be fixed? Or is the phone trashed? ARGH!!

    So Brad, just an update...
    My phone periodically works and then it doesn't. The battery percentage indictator still continues to remain at 100% charge though I know common sense would tell me that the battery percentage would be decreased if the phone sat unplugged and on all day long. When then phone does work, I try to restore it, but iTunes keeps saying that there must have been a connection failure and iTunes had to stop downloading. FYI- I have no connection issues with my Internet.
    Here is the weird thing...
    Sometimes the phone is still showing the dead battery page and asking me to charge the phone. So I'll plug in the phone, let it sit charging for 4 hours, 12 hours, even days at a time... and it will continue to have the battery dead screen asking me to charge the phone. So then I will unplug the phone and leave it alone. After approximately 48 hours, I'll go back to the phone and hit the Home button and miracuously the phone would turn on. It is as if the phone is confused and the battery life is being drained when it is plugged in, but then miracuously recharges itself while sitting unconnected to any cords or plugs.
    This makes no sense and I cannot explain it. I have waited to respond to your initial postings because I wanted to see if I could restore the phone. In addition, I wanted to confirm I was not crazy and that the phone is actually acting opposite what it should in reference to charging vs. non-charging.
    Any idea why the phone is acting backwards in regards to the battery life? Since my last post, I've only been able to actually turn on my phone 3 times, literally once a week and then it only lasts for about 12 hours before dying on me again.

    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 LCIsand corrosion.
    Connect the iPhone to the iPhone's USB power adapter and let it charge for at least ten minutes.
    After at least 30 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.

  • We were on our computer and it just shut off for no reason. any suggestions?

    We were on our computer and it just shut off for no reason. any suggestions?

    You haven't provided any valuable data, it could have been a power problem where the computer is plugged in. Personally I use a UPS (Uninterruptible Power Supply) when I plug in my computer for just that reason.
    BTW when posting please complete your profile so we know what kind of iMac you have and the version of OS X. Also what were you doing when the computer shut down.

  • My iPad shut off for some reason.  The battery was charged.  I couldn't get it to turn back on until I pressed the on button and home at the same time.Why did that happen?

    I had trouble upgrading my iPad2 toiOS 5.1.I have had it for about 1 year.  I had never upgraded it.  I tried a few times but I kept getting a message that I would loose everything on my iPad if I did.  I bit the bullet andfigured that I would restore it from the back up on my laptop.  Some of the backup files were corrupted.  I was unable to retore my exchange email or my notes from the noted app.
    Today, my iPad shut off for no reason and I couldn't get it to turn on again, even though the battery was 70% charged.  I had to press the on button and home button to get it to come back on.

    I'm not sure what problem you are experiancing but it would be well worth contacting apple.
    If you have had it for less than one year it should be covered under warrenty

    If the reset does no work
    Try:
    - Reset all settings
    Go to Settings > General > Reset and tap Reset All Settings.
    All your preferences and settings are reset. Information (such as contacts and calendars) and media (such as songs and videos) aren’t affected.
    - Restore from backup
    - Restore to factory settings/new iOS device.
    - Make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store.

    Maybe the replacement is defective.

  • Iphone randomly shut off and won't turn back on!

    My power button has been stuck recently (not a major issue) and my Iphone 4S randomly shut off without any damage or moisture and over half battery life. Plugging it in to the computer or wall doesn't turn it back on.
    I don't know what to do. Any suggestions?

    This is very bad. It is very difficult to deal with problems without power button function. If there is Warranty or AppleCare make Genius reservation or set up service and take or send to Apple for resolution. If no coverage, clean iPhone charging port very well with toothbrush and Isopropyl Alcohol. If still nothing, next would be battery replacement. If still nothing, replacement of the charging port with flex cable and lower mic. And on and on. If you want Apple to handle this, they offer perfect replacement iPhone 4S for $199.

  • IPhone randomly shuts off and wont turn back on again.

    Hi,
    I have a problem with my iPhone 4. It randomly shuts off and wont turn on again until i plug in the charger. This happens at least once a day and is extremly annoying and i can´t really use it anymore. I´ve tried a reset but with no results. Please help me out, thanks

    Hello again,
    I know there been a while, but I just need to tell you this
    I tried a restore and it didn´t work out. The same problem just continued and i started using and old phone instead. A couple of days ago I read something about ios6, and I thought: Why not try it on my iPhone that I don´t use? I installed ios6 and since then the phone have worked perfectly, except for one single hangup but then it was just to restart it. Ios6 beta 2 is actully really stable. I mean, now at least it´s a fully functional phone.

  • Iphone shutting off for no reason.

    Over the past few weeks, my Iphone has been shutting down, or turning off, for no reason.  I have tried to reset the device using the Apple method where the home and sleep/wake buttons are pressed and held together, still will not turn back on.  Last time this happened it took about four hours before the phone would turn back on.  Why is this happening and what can I do to fix this problem?

    Basics from the manual are restart, reset, restore from backup, restore as new.

  • Macbook shutting off for no reason

    So a few months ago, when I put my macbook to sleep, I would have problems with what I believe to be the harddrive spinning. I would put my computer to sleep and a sometimes a second and sometimes an hour later the hard drive would start spinning and wouldnt stop until I shut it off. Now, rather than putting my computer to sleep I always turn it off. Recently, one of 3 things has started to happen when i turn my computer back on.
    1. It runs perfectly
    2. It shuts off after about a minute, then once I turn it on again shuts off more and more frequently until it refuses to turn on. At this point, I have to leave the computer shut off for 5-10 minutes before turning it on, and at this point, it usually runs fine.
    3. It runs perfectly until I open a second program, or a program that takes up a lot of memory. This will continue to happen until again, I leave my computer shut off for 30 minutes or so, then turn it on again.
    I have been told that it may be a problem with the battery, but I don't understand how as I always keep it fully or almost fully charged, and also, when this problem happens it is typically plugged in. (The problem continues if I unplug it also) Also, once my macbook stops shutting off, and I turn it back on, I can unplug it for quite a while and the battery seems to work perfectly.
    I also have a problem with a crack on the right side of the mousepad, right along the edge of my macbook, but I don't think thins could lead to any of these problems, as I have read about so many people with the same problem.
    If anyone has any suggestions or has heard about anything like this happening, i would really like to hear about it, thanks.

    1) Reset the System Management Controller. To do this, shut down the Mac, unplug the AC adaptor, remove the battery and then hold the power button down for 7 seconds. Then reconnect everything.
    2) Next, reset your NVRAM by holding controloption+pr when you turn the mac on. Continue holding those keys until the computer reboots a second time.
    3) If that does not solve the problem, insert the first of the two DVDs that came with your MacBook and reboot the machine while holding the D key. This brings up the Apple Hardware Test. Run the extended test and see if it finds anything. Do this with nothing but the AC adaptor connected to the computer.
    4) The cracking case is a recognized defect in the MacBook. If you call Apple or take your computer to your local Apple store, they'll replace it free of charge.
