Zen Xtra powers off/shuts down by itse

I have a 40G Zen Xtra. I've searched for at least an hour and can't find a solution to my problem. It powers off by itself after I've been listening to it for awhile. I've never timed it so I can't say how long it's on before it shuts down. Nothing in the manual addresses this either. Any help is much appreciated.
Thanks!

it's a sleeper timer on your player if it is on it will turn off in 30 60 90 50 and 80 Min. to turn it off just go to setting - edit profile scroll down till you see sleeper timer and set it to off. it also has a alarm on it to wake you if you want it to go to setting and scroll down to time and date the bell is the alarm just set it to the time you want it to come on

the cpu is running in the mid 70's as high as 75c
as for the fan speed; its continually going and currently running at 6179rpm...now 6200
6200 is actually the maximum fan speed on a MacBook, and you can probably hear the fan screaming pretty good. 75°C is moderately high, though not startlingly so. Watch to see if it keeps creeping upward to 90 or 95 where a shutdown gets likely.
In the meantime, how is your MacBook situated? Are you using it on a hard, flat surface or on your lap or other soft surface? Is the vent (in the back below the hinge) well ventilated?
And are you doing things that are highly processor-intensive--flash games or videos, for example? These will heat up the CPU.
Note that there was nothing suspicious in your System Profiler information that suggests that this is a power issue, although another trouble-shooting step would be to reset the SMC:

Zen Micro shutting down on its

No biggie but my Zen Micro plays 3 or 4 songs then shuts down on its own. The battery is always fully charged and the interface is locked by sliding the top button over until the "lock" icon appears on the screen. Am I doing somethig wrong or is my player defecti've. Im using it while working out but there isnt alot of bouncing around going on. At least not enough to make the hard dri've shut down or anything. Thanks in advance
Sam

Thank you for the quick reply. Well both of those things were enabled. The sleep timer was set to 5minutes which is just about right. Ive disabled those and its been playing for about 20 minutes now with no shutdown. Now the player is just sitting there not moving. I will have to do a workout test with it to see if the problem is definitely cured. Thanks for the help as it looks good so far.

My iPad isn't playing music and shuts down by its self can I get it fixed?

My nephew knocked my iPad off the bed and now the volume is not working also it shuts down by its self i have warranty for it can I get it fixed? Or do I get a new one?

The warranty is a limited manufacturer's warranty, not insurance. The warranty does not cover accidental damage.

Beer might have gone into MacBook Pro from the back, shut down on its own 5 minutes later. what to do?

I'm currently working in Myanmar and no chance to going into a Mac service provider or store. I was using my Macbook Pro (mid 2010) when beer was spilled onto the table. I lifted the computer instantly and as i did not see liquid on the machine and also it had a protective cover i was sure no liquid got in. I removed the cover and it was dry but then 5 minutes later it shut down on its own and it would not turn back on or charge. I left it for an hour or so and then it turned back on and was charging but then since i thought that may be it was because some liquid got in, I turned it off again immediately and disconnected from power source.
what is the best way to proceed knowing i won't be able to bring it in to a technician anytime soon?

without on hand diagnostics, nobody can tell you the correct answer on that. No.
5 minutes later it shut down on its own and it would not turn back on or charge.
bad news
Liquid spills, why your MacBook chassis is a one-way valve for spills
After a substantial spill many people will turn their notebook upside down and shake it, not only does this not work, but it spreads liquid havoc throughout your machine and makes things often as bad as possible.
The keyboard itself acts like a one way valve in the case of a substantial liquid spill. While liquid pours into the bottom chassis easy, it does not come out easily at all, and in the case of any spill, most of it will not come out by turning it upside down. Disconnect all power and contact Apple for diagnostics and repair.
Do not attempt to, after a spill, ‘dry out your MacBook’ and test it
After a spill most people invariably try to “dry out” their notebook by various methods, including hair dryers and otherwise. This both does not work, and after a substantial spill of any magnitude, even if the liquid was water, residue is left behind.
There are additionally many very tight places inside your notebook where liquids will linger for a very long time, and cause corrosion or worse.
Immediately unplug your notebook and contact Apple for in shop diagnostics and parts replacement.
In the case of very minor spills people will “dry out” their notebook and feel success that their notebook is working ok, however invariably in nearly all instances after 4-14 days an error / fault pops up and is usually followed by more.
In case of a spill, damage estimates are impossible,.....anything can be fixed, without question.......the question is cost.
contact Apple for in shop diagnostics and cost estimation ....possible parts replacement.

My iPad 3/new shuts down on its own.

My iPad 3/new shuts down on its own. Not off completely though. The screen goes black and I have to hit the center button, prompting the lock screen to appear. I have rebooted it completely, and not long ago I restored it. What do I do? I'm afraid if I take it to a store they won't be able to help me because I can always recreate the problem. It's random.

I would love to agree with that, but it happens when Im actually using it. I would love to say its the app I was in too, but it has happened while in different apps. Nook app, Simpsons Tapped Out app, Clumsy Ninja, Safari. I will be scrolling or touching the screen for whatever reason and off it goes.

My PowerBook shuts down on its own (persists when RAM is changed)

Hi all,
My PowerBook shuts down on its own. It will display the "Are you sure you want to shut down your computer now?", and even with me clicking Cancel, it will just shut off immediately after displaying the sign, as if I pressed and held the Power Button.
I've sinced change the RAM back to the default piece, but the problem persists.
Moreover it's a random, although frequent and frustrating, occurance, so I'm not sure if the service centre will take it in since I cannot reproduce the problem.
I'm using it on a 1920x1200 display.

first you can try resetting Power Manager.
the rpoblem may be caused by some software bug, try making new user, then log in as new user and work for a while - if it works ok it's something in the original user software.
then you can try "archive and install" of the OS.
also, problem maybe caused by bad keyboard, top case (where the power button is) or logic board.
anyways keep files backed up and maybe get it diagnosed by service shop.

Iphone likes to shut down on its own when handled

For the last week my iphone has got a mind of its own and like to try to shut down on its own. Sometimes it would give me the red button+slide to turn off...sometimes it just goes to the Apple logo then shuts down.
No hacks on it, maybe two apps max like ebay so really nothing that would point out to an issue. This is also a replacement my original phone had a screen issue this summer where you could not touch anything else than the bottom bar. I swapped it for this one so it is virtually new.
Not sure if it is the button on the top that is stuck and it does not look like it.
Any similar experiences? I heard other users had issues with their iphone shutting down for no reason.

It does sound like the Sleep/Wake button may be stuck or overly sensitive.
If you lightly tap on it, does the phone turn off?

Droid mini shuts down on its own

Since updating Android about a week ago, my droid mini has shut down on its own at random times. Pressing the power button won't start it up either. I have to continually press for over a minute before the phone powers up. Battery is over 70% so that shouldn't be the issue.
Thanks for any ideas on how to cure this!

I would suggest trying running the device in safe mode. There may be one of your 3rd party apps that are interfering somehow with the proper functioning of your device, and safe mode will disable them for diagnostic purposes. If running safe mode improves the phone's performance, one of a couple things may happen. Your phone may "fix itself", correcting its own glitch now that there is no interference from a problem app, or it may just run better while in safe mode. You'll have to restart again as normal to determine which one it is. If it goes back to glitching, then you will need to go back into safe mode, remove all 3rd party apps, and then add them again one by one to determine which one was the problem.

Mac Pro shut down on its own, then on boot up it beeped steadily for 2 min?

I put my 2009 Mac Pro to sleep then the next day I find it completely shut down! I boot it up and then I hear a steady beep (every second) for about 2 minutes. After 2 minutes the beeping went away.
Any idea what caused Mac Pro to shut down on its own? And what does the steady beeping mean? The beeping is coming from inside the Mac Pro's speakers, not from my BOSE 5 computer speakers.
I don't think there was a power outage as the UPS is fully charged, and I asked a neighbor across the street.

I wasn't clear in my description, it's a steady continuous beep, it's a rhythmic beep -- it'll do this for 200 beeps or about 2-4 minutes.

Mac mini shut down on its own, will not restart, grey screen, spinning wheel. Unplugged everything, will still not restart. Did safe boot, will not restart after safe boot, only grey screen with spinning wheel.

Mac mini shut down on its own. Could not restart, chime, grey screen and spinning wheel. Unplugged everything but monitor, still only chime, grey screen and spinning wheel. Started in safe boot, shut Down, will not restart.
This happened a couple of months ago, unplugged everything and it restarted, now that won't work.

Hi BDAqua,
I just did the repair as you suggested. T ran the disc repair, and twice it cam back, the volume macintosh seems ti be okay, I also ran the verify and permissions repair, both came back okay.
I was actually hoping that they would find something, so they could repair. I shut the computer down, and restated with out holding a key, and I started up great. I'm baffled. I have moved 20 GB to an external hard drive, as I only had 10% open space.
I have Tech Tool 6, would you recommend to run a repair check on that, or just leave well enough alone.
I agree with you on the new Mac's, I have problems with no disc for back up, until they realize their mistake I will stay with Snow a Leopard. This is the first problem I have experienced, so I can't complain. Their last programs are not as perfected as under Steve, prior to his handling over the reins, hope this is not going to be the future we can expect from Apple.
I will wait to here back as to your suggestion regarding the Tech Tool check
Thanks for all your help.
Gratefully,
Cheri

IPhone 3GS keeps turning off/shutting down.Have done system restore but no improvement. Suggestions welcome.

iPhone 3GS keeps turning off/shutting down. After numerous attempts I've managed to get it on again. Any ideas - could it be battery? Suggestions welcome.

Try forcing the phone into recovery mode and restore as a new device.
Follow these steps:
iOS: How to back up your device and setup as a new device
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4137
Doing this will help eliminate any possible software issue that could be causing this. Setting up a new device will bypass a backup with possible data corruption.
If the issue continues after this, you should contact Apple for service for the phone as it will very likely be a hardware issue.

My iPad shut down on its own and when i switched it on, it asks to 'Activate iPad' and reads below 'This iPad was lost and erased. Sign in with the Apple ID that was used to erase this iPad". Please help!!!!

Is it possible that you or someone who knows your iCloud sign on went into the Find My iPhone app and erased your device via iCloud? Because that is what that message is saying.
Have you tried to sign on with your Apple ID and password?
Was it online prior to this incident happening?
