Photostream constantly turning itself off

Is it me, or is anyone else noticing this? I have Photostream turned off, but every so often, I notice that my photos are not downloading from the cloud. When I check Photostream in the settings, it is turned off. I am not turning it off, and when this happens, I am turning it back on. However, after a few days to weeks, it might randomly shut off again. Is this a known glitch? Is anyone else seeing/experiencing this?

My workflow is nothing out of the ordinary. Basically, I open Aperture, import images the traditional way off of my camera and the rest show up, imported via Photostream. I do my edits and add metadata, then quit. Sometimes I might run a vault backup. Since the issue I'm experiencing doesn't happen every time I use the app, I can't say I do anything differently when the issue occurs. All I can say is that all of a sudden, Photostream is shut off again and I need to activate it in order for it to start working again. I do not shut it off, so this is happening on its own, or via something behind the scenes.
The issue now is that turning it back on is not working either. I get the spinning beach ball that spins infinitely. I need to force quit the application, and when I do, Aperture is listed in red and is not responding. So, basically I can't even activate Photostream in Aperture at this point.

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.

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

HT1296 Since I downloaded iOS 7, my iPhone is constantly turning itself off and the battery useage is twice what it used to be. I want iOS 6 back! How do I uninstall iOS 7?

I downloaded iOS 7.0.2, and now my iPhone 5 keeps turning itself off and the battery useage is twice what it was. I want iOS 6 back! How do I uninstall iOS 7?>

So, after it charged and was still plugged in, I deleted the Exchange account and then reset it holding down the sleep wake buttons until the apple logo appeared. I also changed the limit on my emails to 3 days instead of 1 week. It turned on, so I turned it off and let it charge overnight. This morning, it stayed on for 3 whole hours and then shut itself off again. I had to try 5 times to get it to come back on. Now, a message appeared that Exchange cannot verify a server, I can't see the full name of the server anymore, but it is *.hotmail.com GlobalSign Root CA from Microsoft. So I'm selecting Accept to see what happens. I'm very discouraged, I need my phone to be reliable for my work. It was reliable for 11 months without one problem, and now since I downloaded iOS 7, it hasn't been on for one full day since.

If you have restored to factory settings and started as new, there is nothing more that you can do on your own. Make an appointment at an Apple Store and ask them for help. You might have a hardware problem and the Apple Store techs will be able to determine that.

Update: Video - Canon 6D turns itself off after a few shots with fully charged battery

Update: I uploaded my video to youtube, please comment:
http://youtu.be/3PNLUYd8g7A
TIA and pardon me for my English.
I posted this originally at another forum, and somebody suggested me to post it here as well, to get more help.
Long story short, I purchased a brand new Canon 6D from B&H on Oct 24th, 2013. From early december, the camera starts to shut itself off randomly and displaying empty battery. I found the camera constantly shuts itself off after 20 - 100 continuous shots with a FULLY charged battery (right off charger, showing 8.23V using multimeter, and showing 98% in battery info).
The camera will just turn itself off in the middle of shooting, showing empty battery int the shoulder window. The solution is simple, open the battery door, then close it again, no need even to pull the battery.
So, I contacted Canon support, sent the camera to the VA service facility, waiting for it be repaired. As an engineer myself, I understand things fail, and I thought this is such an easy issue to reproduce, anybody should be able to repro it.
Couple of days later, I received a phone call to send my accessories in, no problem, debugging needs more info, that's normal. I sent my lens and stuff in. I unfortunately had to bear the cruel fact that I don't have a decent camera for the holiday, though I have a backup.
After a long wait, on 12/28the, the accessories were delivered at 9:35am. At 10am, they called me, they were sending the camera back. No issue at all. I was like, have you tested AT ALL? They didn't care, sending the camera back regardless.
I received the camera on Jan 2nd, and saw the same issue on that day. Of course, it was NOT fixed at all.
I googled really hard, somebody said he had similar issue but it was a defective battery, so I got a brand new Canon battery, unfortunately, the same issue pops up again.
Ok, the only choice for me is to send it back again. But this time I am totally amazed by Canon.
I sent the camera in again with my lens and battery. Also, a video showing the issue on a standalone CF card (I know 6D does not take CF, just to put the video on it).
Couples of days later, they called asking for accessories, I was like, what accessories, I don't have any more.
Then the camera sit in their facility for a few days for nothing. All of sudden I received a phone call on Monday morning, said it is ready. The camera has no issue at all.
I called, asked whether they have watched the video, they told me two technicians, including a senior one, was not able to upload the video to the computer. I was like, what the hell? why the heck you need to upload it to the computer, find a card reader, plug the card in, double click, how simple is that?
I talked to the service manager over the phone, he told me that there is nothing he could do, if their technician said so. They have decided to send my camera back, NOT fixed, again. I esclated the issue again, but haven't heard anything back yet.
Honestly, I am totally pissed, how stupid can they be? I included a letter with detailed steps on how to reproduce this issue. As an engineer myself, I know how easy to reproduce this issue. But what shocked me is that they don't even know or they didn't even bother to watch the video. In the same letter, I asked/begged them to contact me if they cannot reproduce the issue instead of just sending it back unfixed.
Guys, any other ways to get their attention? I already filed a BBB complaint. For a brand new camera of 3 months old, it has been in Canon's repair shop for almost a month. Leave to say that I missed the most importand holiday season in the year. This is simply not acceptable.

"The camera usually shuts itself off after 20-100 continuous shot, ..."
By this you mean your are in continuous drive? You just hold the shutter release down until it stops shooting?
"... the shoulder LCD shows a ..."
What is the "shoulder" LCD?
Sorry for the extra questions but I am trying to understand exactly what you are going through and why Canon said it is OK.
Canon did not say it was all right if it is not.
You are, also saying, if you use the camera, just for a single snap shot, say several in a session, it is OK? Right?
It only shuts down when on continuous drive or video?

My Iphone 4 keeps trying to turn itself off and also takes random screen shots. I think it might have something to do with the Sleep/Awake button but any help would be greatly appreciated.

My Iphone is constantly trying to turn itself off and also taking screen shots when I'm not touching it. I think it may have something to do with the Sleep button but would welcome any suggestions. I have already restored it to Factory settings but it didn't help.
Thanks,

Did you try to set it up as new device, without using the latest backup?

IPad bluetooth with iOS7 turns itself off randomly

I have an iPad 2. I recently downloaded iOS7. I use a Logitech bluetooth keyboard. I want my bluetooth to stay on constantly. Twice now the bluetooth turned itself off for no apparent reason. Each time I've turned it back on. As of right now, it is still on.
Anyone else having this problem? Anyone know a fix?

Why does it turn itself off!!!!

I have had my blackberry for about three weeks. It sucks. I have to charge it nearly everyday. It seems the battery runs down just after some texting and some phone calls. But the most annoying thing is, it turns itself off! It is incredibly frustrating, I don't know what its doing. Can anyone help?

ANY smartphone, including the BB will run down its battery with bad software running on it. In fact, in extreme cases the battery and other circuits can overheat, the phone then shuts down to save its circuits and reboots.
Longevity of the battery is based on the phone "resting" while waiting for IO. Literally between key strokes, the processor is powering down to conserve the battery.
Any software that doesn't enter this wait state can drain the battery in minutes. Examples are programs with lots of constantly changing graphics, badly written programs that loop internally instead of using a timer, web pages with poorly defined java script.   So ... be conservative about the software you use.   Anything with a lot of extra animation is going to be a battery hog.   Any program that too frequently checks back with an external server also will use up a lot of battery.   Using a setting that allows for too frequent checks, bad idea.
If you have a CDMA service such as Verizon then you should also update the PRL regularly. For Verizon this is done by calling *228 and entering option 2. I've noticed that some Verizon stores provide the phone without actually doing this and this will very likely lead to the exact problems people are describing.    Following this process once a month or any time you make a change to another region of the country is a very good idea.
Another thing is that if you ran down your battery without first charging it up all the way (such as when you first got it) you have probably damaged the battery. This too is true for all Lithium Ion batteries. I might add that periodically draining the battery on purpose is a good idea for other types of batteries BUT NOT for LiOn ones such as most cell phones use. Doing this will also shorten the batteries life.
I do these things and I have not had any reboot or battery drain problems at all.   My phone goes all day with many emails and a couple of phone calls and is not even down 1/2 of its battery. I might add that I've had a number of other smart phone type cell phones and folks have the same complaints about them for the same reasons.

N8 Turned itself off & wont go back on

Ok so I'm on handset no 3 which I received yest (17th jan) & tonight it turned itself off & I cant get it back on.
Does anyone know how 2 get it started or how many handsets I have to go through to gvet a diff make?
cheers susan

The N8 is a fine handset and you have been unlucky from the sound of things
There is no way to get it to restart immidiatly if its the power management problem
When I had the issue I made the following observations
The phone would restart if left alone for a while
Constantly trying to restart it only increases the recovery time, (It's like there is a clock in there that wont let you boot the phone until it runs down and attempting to start before then only resets it to the beginning)
Leave the phone in a cool dry place for at least 30 mins, better yet an hour, then try to start it
(Cooling the phone appears to improve the time taken before it boots) However do not put it in a fridge or freezer, this can lead to condensation forming inside the phone which may void the warenty

Iphone 4 keeps turning itself off. no matter if i have a full charge it turns off whether I am texting or using any app.

Hello,
My Iphone 4 turns itself off constantly. Whether it is fully charged, 80 % or anywhere in between it shuts off and I need to hook it up to the charger to get it to open up again. What can I do to fix this?

Yes, I have. I still have the same problem. My phone won't stay on for any length of time. I just updated to the latest iOS as well, it shut itself off in less than one minute. I have an appointment this coming thursday at the Apple Store.

My ipad2 keeps turning itself off and On

my ipad2 keeps turning itself off and on. I can be playing a game or looking on the Internet and it will just turn off and restart all by itself. I pulled up and hooked it up to itunes on my computer but I'm not really sure what to do there either. It's so annoying, especially when it's used daily, or all day, by me or my kids and it's constantly shutting off in the middle of things.

DId the rebooting start recently after doing an iOS update or installing a game?
There could be several reasons for your iPad randomly shutting down & restarting.
Sometimes low memory (RAM) can cause the issue.
First, restart the iPad by holding down the home & sleep/wake buttons simultaneously until the Apple logo appears then let go and wait until the iPad boots up normally. This can help clear the cache & free up memory.
If that doesn't work, try a general reset:
Settings->General->Reset->Reset All Settings. You will not lose any data but will have to log back into your Wifi networks.
If the issue occurs while using a particular app, try uninstalling the app to see if it continues.
As a last resort try restoring the iPad back to factory settings. Be sure to backup your iPad first.

Unfortunately, it may also be that your battery is starting to fail but try the above to see if the problem persists.

Magnavox TV keeps turning itself off and on

I have a 19" Magnavox in my kitchen less than 2 years old. When I turn it on, for about 30 minutes it constantly switches itself off and on making a high pitched noise, then it finally comes on with no sound at all. I then have to switch it off and switch it on again and then it works OK and only switches itself off/on occasionally.
It was only about $200 but still it should last more than 2 years. Is this fixable? I asked in Best Buy but they said it could be hundreds of things and it would cost $100 just to look at it which is not worth it for a TV that cost $200. I leave this TV on all day to keep my dogs company if I am out but now am beginning to think it might not be safe - but if I turn it off I have to go through this whole long process again.

Electronics have gotten smaller and more complicated, and so repair costs have gone up. Change with the times, man.

My iphone keeps crashing and turning itself off.....even though battery life is fine...as soon as i plug charger in it comes bcak on....help very frustrating...3g

absolutely that is frustrating. if the battery life is fine there could be two things software or hardware. to find out if your back up your information in itunes and import pictures and then restore the phone as NEW then you can test it out. if it is still shutting off it is hardware related
