(This is a frequent question we get from new guitar owners.) Firstly, any movement of the tuning machine heads ("tuners") will change the tuning of the strings. This commonly happens when a guitar is moved in/out of a case, and just casually bumped in handling the instrument. Tuning will change as you play your guitar due to strings stretching. See this article for other reasons that your guitar won't stay tuned.
