Shutting down is a typical part of rebooting. During a reboot, the OS typically saves all open information, disables services, and suspends the kernal after sending the 'Power Down And Restart' command to the motherboard. Most motherboards manufactured after 1995 will then restart automatically and begin loading.
However older computers, or unacceptibly poorly designed computers, may not support standard features. Also, if you have an OS that does not support these functions, it can also cause it. The only OSs I know of like this are Windows 3.x, and Windows 95.

There is probably a thermostatic control somewhere that shuts it down when some temperature limit is reached, and on again when the temperature gets too low. Alternatively there might be a fault which shows up when the furnace gets too hot.

How can you fix your iPod if it still works but won't let you play the music?
you hold the middle button down first, then you hold down the MENU button so they are both held down together. if you hold it down long enough, you will see that it will restart the whole iPod. But if you do it too much, it will probably break or shut down.
