Thanks
Hello Calduffy,
Thank you for the details of the issue you are experiencing with your iPhone4. I would be concerned too if my iPhone was unexpectedly powering off. I found an article with steps you can take when you encounter an issue like this. I recommend following the steps below:
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.
My issue is still not resolved. What do I do next?
Contact Apple Support.

My iphone 3g running ios 4.2.1 goes off when it is idle
i need help,
My iphone 3g running ios 4.2.1 goes off when it is idle and i have to reboot it before it starts work.
it does not go off when it plays music..... or plugged into the PC.It's likely running slow because of iOS4, not because of apps being open. Standard troubleshooting...
Try a reset by pressing the home and sleep 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.
If still a problem restore from your backup.
If still a problem restore as new, i.e. without your backup. See how it runs with nothing synced to it.
You'll most likely need to restore as new to get it running as good as it can. A 3G will never run as good on iOS4 as it did on iOS3. -
Why does my iphone 4s run out of battery so quick?
Why does my iphone 4s run out of battery so quick?
What do you mean by 'quick'? If you mean a few hours then I think it is normal (it's normal for me: 4+ hours for me depending on what I use it for). If you play apps with really good graphics it will make the battery go quicker. If you don't use it for much, then the battery might have gone out-of-sync with the battery percentage it thinks it has (I am not sure if this happens with apple devices though)

Why does my sony tv pick up my apple tv but my new LG has no signal from the HDMI input?
Hi midknightsurfer,
Welcome to the Sony Community!
Please try the following troubleshooting steps.
Check for a firmware update for your router.
Make sure the router is broadcasting the Service Set Identifier < SSID >.
Please try other device/s. Connect them to your network (wired/wireless) then test those units.

i am unable to download updates for my iphone 4 using my pc. i have turned off firewall and spam however the downloadkeeps stopping about halfway through saying i have been disconnected from the network and to check my settings. very frustrating! help!
Hi Jen. My daughter just compleated her nursing program and is now working as a full time nurse. Focus and study hard and soon you will be there too. Now to the problem at hand. I have the same problem. I gave up on it and satisfied myself with my iPod without the upgrade. Reason being I've read so many posts of people having problems after the upgrade. But I'm sure other factors are involved. Nevertheless here is the fix most say works to solve the problem: What ever virus protection you have installed on your computer, disable it. Then try to install the update. After that enable the protection. I had Kaspersky, and it does it's job well. The thinking is, the virus protection is blocking the upgrade. Hope this works. Charlie

Reinstall iTunes. Make sure you follow the instructions in this support document to the letter. http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1923.
You may have some problems because Apple has not certified that everything works with Windows 8 yet. -
The battery on my iPod touch has been acting very weird and I don't know why. I just got this iPod two weeks ago for christmas. When the battery gets down to half a battery, weird things start to happen. The battery drops 15,20,25% in the matter of minutes. On top of this, my iPod touch always dies at 10%. Any battery-consuming feature is off so I can't explain what is happening. Is it a defective batter?

Why Does My iPhone 3GS with iOS 4.0.1 Cause Rapid Battery Drain
I upgraded my iPhone 3GS to iOS 4.0.1, and now the battery drains very rapidly---needs to be recharged after a few hours---and gets very warm. Before this, iOS 4.0 was fine (although slightly increased battery drain over 3.1.3).
I use Exchange with push and had no issues before iOS 4.0.1. This may be the culprit now because when I turn off "push," the battery drain appears to be normal (although not extensively tested yet). But, I also have MobileMe, Yahoo!, and Google email accounts set up.
Is this a new problem? Anyone else have this problem? How can this be fixed? Anyone have any ideas?*Reposting this..had done the same thing earlier as well*
This is my observation from past 6 nights;
All 6 nights, charged my iPhone to max and then kept it in sleep/stand by. Not even a single call or mail checked...(11 pm to 6:30 am when my alarm rings)
1st & 2nd Nights, I had flight center, angry birds, twitter, facebook, mail, phone, sms, settings app open in the multi-tasking bar.
Battery drained from 100% to 83%
3rd and 4th nights, i had only twitter, facebook, mail, phone, sms
Battery drained from 100% to 92%
5th and 6th nights, I had nothing open
Battery drained from 100% to 93%
my mail is always in push enable setting to exchange and me account,
location always on, bluetooth always off. 3G off
I thought, the applications on multi tasking bar is actually not draining the battery, but looks like they are...might be a flaw in multi tasking api or may be from developer.
I hope to get an easy way to kill the apps and not let it go to multi tasking bar. -
Why does my iPhone 4 with iOS 7 not display certain emails correctly
After I updated my iPhone 4 to iOS 7, some emails are not displayed correctly. I have also updated my iPad, but the same email looks fine on it. The first email I noticed the problem with was actually from Apple. I have attached the image of how it displays.

Why does my iPhone 6 say I'm using 12gb of storage when I'm using about 5?
I kept getting a notification that my storage was almost full so deleted a lot of photos and turned off photostream. This gave me a good 7gb of free space. I have since updated my software to iOS 8.1.3 and then started getting the same messages again. When I have looked at the storage usage it says I have no space available and am using 12.1GB. When I've added up how much I've gone into manage storage and added up each thing I have only used about 5GB.
I'm having the same exact problem as you. I've tried deleting a bunch of apps, pictures, music and NOTHING! It's bothering me mostly because I'm not getting some of my iMessages.
Also, iPhone 6 16gb, iOs 8.1.3 -
It's a sad thing to happen but updating to iOS 6.1.3 made sound go away from my earphones tried several ones and none worked but the phone react to earphone commands and mic but won't bring out sounds and all earphones are working perfectly on other devices and I devices , please help me out with this issue
You say you have no sound in the earphones. Often that is caused by having the earphone plug not in completely. The "little noise" is there even when the earphone is not completely put in. But for sound/music it must be in completely.
