U430 turns off by itself after 8.1 update

So I've had this issue ever since upgrading to 8.1. I bought my laptop a few months ago with Windows 8 on it. Ever since updating, if I leave the computer with the screen open and walk away, I come back and it shut down! I cannot figure this out! I've looked in power options but it talks about going into sleep, not shutting off. I know when it's in sleep because the power button flashes slowly. Can anyone help me figure this out? Tired of walking back to my laptop and it being shut off. Luckily it boots quick but still, I don't want to have to open all my applications up again. Thanks.

i have the exact same problem , tried everything but still it happens , does somebody have an idea ?

Iphone 5 not restoring my back up data from itunes? Iphone 5 began freezing and turning off by itself after ios7 updates. How can i recover my data?

I began having problems with my iphone 5 after I updated to ios7. It began having several issues e.g. freezing, turning on and off by itself and the home button was not responding.
It is a long story because I had to talk to apple reps etc. to make a long story short; my iphone is now in recovery mode and only works when it is set as a new iphone.
Now my back up data on itunes will not back up into my iphone 5 and my iphone is still in recovery mode.
How can I restore my itunes back up data into my iphone 5?
How can I get my phone out of recovery mode?
How can I recover my potentially lost data, contacts, sms, etc., due to backing up my iphone and trying to fix the issues with apple reps?

Should I just let the energy run out and then plug it into iTunes and see what happens?

Can't turn off apple tv after 5.3 update

yeppers can't turn it off after the update and playing around with HBO GO. pressed the play button for many seconds, signed on to HBO GO and logged off. nada. I turned off wifi and everything is still working as if I had wifi on. I close iTunes and the only thing different is home sharing is off but I can listen to my songs using the music icon just can't see "my" movies. open itunes and all is there as if I had wifi on. yes, wifi is not turned on. any ideas or should I have read something about 5.3 that I didn't see.

**** never knew it just went to sleep, always thought it went off, geeze just found this out, lol. I updated from 5.0.1 or something like that to 5.3 so I guess lots has changed. I used to have to turn on wifi from the menu bar for anything to show up(other than the icons) and press the play button for a few seconds and it went to sleep(what I thought was off). now, it's always on, I can see the music, the movies(except the ones in my library). when I open itunes, I can see my movies in the library, all without turning on wifi in the menu bar. could this be because the wifi is always on and the update enables me to not have to turn wifi on in the menu bar, like I had to before? or is this a non issue because that's the way it works now? whew.
thanks all

My iPhone has sudden turned off by itself after I press the button of upgrading IOS 7.5, I could not turn on my phone anymore.

How to turn on the phone?

Have you tried resetting your iPhone?
Reset: Press the Home and On/Off buttons at the same time and hold them until the Apple logo appears (about 10 seconds).
No data will be lost.

IPad turns off by itself.

My New iPad turns off by itself after I lock it when my iPad is at 50% battery life or lower. I've already done a restore and this problem is still here. Any tips?

KimT.-
If it does need a repair, someone at a repair center would be able to test it and figure out what the problem is. I suggest you look for an Apple Authorized Repair Center. There may be one in your city. <Apple Authorized Repair Centers> <Another Option - For Country, choose “Show Complete Country List”>

Why does my ipod turn off by itself and then turn back on after up grading to ios 7

why does my ipod turn off by itself and then back on after upgrading to ios 7

Try the standard fixes:
- Reset the iOS device. Nothing will be lost
Reset iOS device: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
- Restore from backup. See:
iOS: How to back up
- Restore to factory settings/new iOS device.
If still problem, make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store since it appears you have a hardware problem.

HT201263 dropped iphone4 in water and turned off by itself

dropped iphone4 in water and turned off by itself and now cant turn on, plugged it to itunes and was asking to restor, when i did restore it it would not turn on when i try to restart it was still the same and now keeps on asking to restore would not turn on any help.... please

You can try drying it out internally by wrapping the unit in a paper towel and putting it in a bag of dry, uncooked rice (or a bag of silica gel pellets, if you have access to those) for a few days. It's very probable that it's been permanently damaged, but it's possible that if you dry it out, it may then work. If after a few days in the bag it still has problems, then you'll need to pay to get it exchanged (by Apple) or repaired (by a third-party repair service, which voids any warranty).
Good luck.

My phone turn off by itself

i have nokia lumia 620 and it keep turn off by itself , i want to know the causes and solutions
Solved!
Go to Solution.

1. Worn out / Faulty or Badly Cut Micro SIM - Get a new SIM preferably a ready Micro SIM and not one that was cut from a regular SIM.
2. Loose Battery Fitting - Put a paper packing
Other than these, it may be due to Software / Hardware issues. For the Software issues..you may try a Full Reset after backing up your data...and for any Hardware issue, you need to visit Nokia Care.

Laserjet P1102w turns off by itself

Laserjet P1102w used in wireless mode turns off by itself and I have to unplug power cord and plug back in and turn on printer to print. Does this printer turn off if not used after a certain time? Is there a printer setting to eliminate this or is this a faulty printer?

Hi,
Please go thru this HP document, this is because the printer go to sleep mode and doesnt come back on again.....

Mac pro HDMI video preview goes yellow solid and turns off by itself often

I work with 2 monitors. main monitor is Apple thunderbolt cinema display 27", and second monitor is LG HD tv connected through HDMI of MacPro.
when I use aftereffect, I use my LG TV as video preview, and it goes yellow solid and turns off itself very often.
I use Final Cut Pro X and, davinci 10 lite with LG TV also, but it works well in these condition.
It makes trouble with aftereffects only.
I hope it can be solved.
thank you

thank you, tim.
English is not my first language. so I'm not sure I fully understand with this.
I will show you my full hardware setting
* Does preview on the LG monitor work at all? When does it go yellow? When does it turn off?
- it works initially. A few minutes after I start making RAM preview, yellow screen appear(the RAM preview keeps going anyway),
if I stop the video preview(command + /), and restart video preview, it turns on normal,
but if I don't stop video preview, 10 or 20 seconds later it turns off by itself, and all the options in 'Output Device' disappear except 'Computer Monitor Only', so I should restart After Effects to turn on video preview.
* When you have the problem, if you open Activity Monitor, is Adobe QT32 Server running?
- yes, it(it appears red characters, is it normal?) looks running
* Do you have Premiere Pro installed? Does it have the same problem when previewing to the LG monitor?
- no, Premiere Pro works well.
- I tried to remove Blackmagic Codec.component , but it didn't solve my problem
let me know if you need more information about this.
thank you again.

IMac Turns off by itself!!!

If I leave my iMac on for more than a day, it turns off by itself! After you turn it back on, the date always says it's December 31, 1969 and the time is always many hours ahead, even when it's set to use a network time server. Is there anything I can do about this?
iMac G3 Mac OS X (10.1.x)

It sounds as if your CMOS backup battery has failed. I don't know if there's anything you can do except arrange to send the unit back to Apple for repair, but you may get a much better answer if you repost the question in the proper forum: this one is for the new Intel based iMacs.

Iphone 3Gs turns off by itself.

I have an iphone 3Gs. It recently started turning off by itself. I could be listening to music, making a call, on the interenet, or whatever. It turns off with the charger in or out. Most of the time it turns back on right after. Sometimes i will have to maually turn it on. It takes almost 3 minutes to turn back on. Then it will stay on from anywhere between 3 and 30 minutes before it turns back off. It also turns off sometimes when it is shook. Thats only somethimes though. I really need a way to fix this. Please if anyone has any ideas, post them here. Thank you

I'm having the EXACT same problem--and it's been recent--it never used to do this! I'm usually out running with iTunes and RunKeeper both running, and...it just shuts off. But usually when I try and restart it, nothing happens, though a few times it will restart and then shut down again.Once it happens my run is shot.
Wouldn't surprise me to learn that this is from a recent IOS patch...maybe to force us to upgrade...wouldn't be the first time that a company has done something like this, and Apple releasing IOS 6 with Apple Maps just goes to show that Apple has some real shortcomings since Steve died.
