Randomly turning on
My Nano seems to be turning itself on randomly when no-one is near it (I have even tested this by leaving it locked in a cupboard overnight!). Cannot find any alarms set or anything like that - anyone else had the same problem? Got any suggestions?
Checked calendar events too?

I would reset the SMC. If that does not help, take it in for testing.

I upgraded my iPad (first gen) to iOS 5.1 and now it will randomly turn off. How can I fix this?
Thread title pretty much says it all.
Shortly after upgrading to iOS 5.1, my 1st gen iPad started randomly turning off when I wasn't using it.
-This has been occuring for over a month now.
-It has not yet turned off while I'm actually using it, only after I've left it along for awhile
-If I leave it plugged in, it doesn't turn off
-I have trouble turning it back on after this occurs. (I have to press/hold the button several times before it will finally turn on)
-I've noticed that a lot of the time when I turn it back on, it will initially (for a second or two) show a battery % that is lower than what it actually is (ex. it will show 72% when I turn it on but then jump up to 90% after a second or two)
Seems to me like it's something related to iOS 5.1 that my iPad doesn't like, likely a batter issue. Although having trouble turning it back on would lead me to believe it might be something more. It is an iPad 1 so maybe it's just getting up there in mileage.
Any suggestions on what to do? I neglected to take any backups. Unless someone gives me other input, I'm planning on taking a backup of my current iPad and then restoring to factory settings just to see if that will solve this issue. Although that's going to be a pain in the butt to get all my apps and everything back. If I restore to factory settings, is there any way I can "upgrade" the to iOS 5.0 (or anything below the latest)?No, you haven't lost anything. Simply sign into your iTunes account on the computer.
As for the device not syncing, what specially happens when you try to sync? -
I have a MacBook Pro from 2009 and the screen randomly turns black on me for no reason while I'm using it? It takes anywhere from 5 seconds to 1 minute to turn back on and no matter what I do it just has to fix itself so idk if it is going in to sleep mode or what. Anyone know the issue? Thanks.
Run through them and stop after #16 or if the problem stops, or if something tells you something severe (like hardware test giving a error)
If you can backup your personal data off the machine, you should do that first.
Hardware issues we cant' fix, only a few things may fix it.
Software issues we can fix, but right now we don't know what is causing your issue as we can't see it obviously.
So your going through a process of elimination to try to give us a clue what's the problem and then we can advise a course of action.
If you feel this is way over your head, then just make a appointement with Apple and/or your local PC/Mac specialist.

4 hours ago my iphone randomly turned off and now i cant get it to turn back on. Ive tried everything, trying to reset it, charging it but nothing works! the charging symbol doesnt even come up when i plugged in the charger. Please help!
Hello there, LaruaGalliers.
The following Knowledge Base article provides some great troubleshooting steps for your issue:
iPhone and iPod touch: Charging the battery
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1476
Particularly:
Battery does not charge
Verify that the outlet being used is working.
Try another USB power adapter if available.
If no other USB power adapter is available, try connecting to a high-power USB 2.0 port (not a keyboard). The computer must be turned on and not in sleep or standby mode.
Try another USB cable if available.
iPhone or iPod touch displays the low-battery image and is unresponsive
If you see the image below, charge the iPhone or iPod touch with USB power adapter for at least 15 minutes.
You should see this image when iPhone or iPod touch begins to charge:
If the screen still displays the low-battery icon, try turning the iPhone or iPod touch off and then on again.
If the issue persists, follow these troubleshooting steps.
Thanks for reaching out to Apple Support Communities.
Cheers,

My iphone randomly turned off out of nowhere. I was getting dressed, my phone was working one minute then literally the next it syopped now it wont charge i cant turn it on however the phone is on cause i called it and it rang. What to do? help please. I tried putting it in DFU mode but my lock button doesnt work and my phone wont charge so i cant connect to itunes
There is no reason to put it in DFU mode, a reset should work. Although, without a working power button it is not possible to reset the device.
Sounds like it is time to replace the damaged device. -
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 appreciatedJymoz - 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.

30 GB ipod randomly turns off.
I received a 30 GB ipod as a Christmas gift. At first it worked fine but a couple days ago it began to randomly turn off. I can turn it back on again but it continues to turn off on its own. Any suggestions ?
My 30 GB did this after I had added some music that I didn't purchase from the iTunes Store. Is this the case for you? Do you notice the iPod turning off when your listening to music that wasn't purchased from iTunes? If so, I just deleted the songs from the playlist and it never happened again. ~.~

My 2 month old IPhone started randomly turning on Voice Command and calls people and turns on the IPod. It freezes up and won't let me push the home button. Any suggestions?
OK, I reset it several times and it worked fine all day yesterday. Today when I turned on the bluetooth it went back to the same problem. Voice Control comes on and the home button won't work at all. I have gone through the reset many times and it isn't working. How do I restore firmware as you suggested?

I was on the phone last night and my phone randomly turned off. It will not come back on even when I have tried to hold the home button and the power button at the same time, while being plugged into the computer? What do I do?
Plug it into power for at least 15 minutes. If it doesn't automatically come on, try a reset... press the home and sleep (on/off) buttons until you see the Apple logo, ignoring the slider. Takes about 5-15 secs of button holding and you won't lose any data or settings.

my iphone 4 just randomly turned off whilst I was playing music. It wont turn back on. Ive plugged it into the computer and tried to charge it but nothing is happening. I have also tried this rest thing and it's not working. but I'm wondering if i was doing it right.. I was holding the power button at the top of my phone whilst pressing the home button (???) HELP ME PLEASE! x
Only way is to bring it to the Apple Store and use the warranty if it hasn't expired

When my phone was off it wouldn't connect to iTunes, i got it working now though. I just had to hold my lock button and my home button down long enough. Thanks anyways though!
