HT5012 I have a first generation Iphone 5 and my question is why is my phone heating up so bad to the point where its almost to hot to touch on the back. On top of that the battery is dieing so fast that it usually lasts about 3 hrs on a full charge. Help

So basically my iPhone 5 has been heating up so bad that it feels like its about to over heat and die. I've never had this happen to any other of my iPhones.  On top of that the battery is dying so fast that on a full charge is lasts about 3 hrs give or take. Ive tried closing all my apps like i usually do anyways, i tuned down the light, I've reset it and booted it back up, reset it and used iCloud backup, ext... Nothing is working. I'm to the point where i  almost want to get a new phone. I even tried calling apple support and they couldn't help me cause from what it sounded like they had no idea what they were doing. If anyone has any comments on how to fix this i would greatly appreciate it . I do love apple products and i have a upgrade and plan on upgrading my phone when the new one comes out but for the time being IDE like to fix the phone i have now that I've only had for a little bit anyways. Thanks  

You are probably going to have to take a trip to the Apple Store, but you can also make sure that:
Bluetooth is turned off when not in use
Location Services are only turned on for those locations that you want a constant update to
Background App Refresh is turned off
Automatic Downloads is turned off
Cellular Roaming is turned off when you don't need it
Go through your Settings and take a look at all of the settings to determine if you have any turned on that may be using a lot of battery, and which you really don't need.
Cheers,
GB

    hello, i have a first generation ipod and i lost the pin, i followed the instruction to back up and restore factory settings but in the middle of the process an unknown error occurred. how can i get my ipod working again with my backup files. please help

    What was the complete wording of the error message? Usually an error number is also given.
    Maybe:

    - Try on another computer
    - Try another cable           
    - Also, confirm your security software and settings are allowing communication between your device and update servers.
    - If still not successful that usually indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

  • I have a first generation iPad and the screen went completely green on me and locked up.  I was able to unlock it, but now there's a green haze all over the screen.  Anyone know what the issue could be and how I can get it fixed?

    Try this  - Reset the iPad by holding down on the Sleep and Home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons. (This is equivalent to rebooting your computer.)

  • HT4059 i have a first generation iPad and find i need to load an earlier version of i books but the downloads page does not aloww this ?

    I have a first generation ipad and find i cannot now run ibooks as i need an earlier version but cannot find any clickable tabs on the ibooks download page that i am directed to ?

    You should be able to download a compatible version. If the iBooks app isn't already in your purchase history thet download the current version on your computer's iTunes so that the app is in it. Then on your iPad go to the Purchased tab in the App Store app and see if you can download an older compatible version of it

  • I have a first generation iPad and got my husband the iPad 2 for xmas.  is there a way to transfer his tiny tower game from my iPad to his without using the same iTunes account?

    I have a first generation iPad and got my husband the iPad 2 for xmas.  is there a way to transfer his tiny tower game from my iPad to his without using the same iTunes account?

    Apps are only tied to one account... You can set up two iTunes accounts on your computer, however, and let his iPad sync to his account. If he has never backed up his apps to a computer, however, he will have to redownload all the apps. Afterwards, he can backup to iCloud instead of your computer.

    I'm trying to install the os x but I got the point where its's asking for "administrator password". How do I get that password?

    That password should be the one you used on the system *before* you do the upgrade.
    If you got the computer used from someone else, you need to get in touch with them and get the password.

  • My iPhone 4 is only 14 months old over dropped very well looke after, one day the lock button stops then the volume buttons, now the headphone port does not work and the battery lasts about 4 hours after full charge I still have a year left on my contract

    My phone is 2 months out of warranty, it's never been dropped or miss used yet the past week every day something has gone wrong with it. First the lock button stopped then the side volume buttons. Then the head phone port when I putt headphones in the phone turns the volume
    Down automatically and it won't turn up until I take my headphones back out. The battery lasts 4 hours max after a full charge and today I took my phone off the docking charger and all my music has gone! The phone is breaking down more and more everyday what is going on! I know people who have had there iPhones years an non of this happen! I still have a year left on my contract too!

    Who is your carrier and what is your coverage with them? If you are with say Verizon, and have Total Equipment Coverage or Extended Coverage, they will swap it out for you under Manufacturer Warrantee.

  • MBP battery lasts about 30 minutes on full charge

    Now I'm not the greatest with computers, especially not Macs. I got my MBP about a year and a half ago and I keep it plugged in all the time. On a full charge, I normally get about 20-30 minutes when it is not plugged in. My battery indicator in the menu bar doesn't even warn me. It will tell me I am at 85% and then it shuts down with no warning. Is there something I did wrong or can do to fix this? Thanks!

    If you have applecare, you might qualify for a new battery. Also check your serial number against the recall list https://support.apple.com/macbookpro15/batteryexchange/
    However, if I remember right, it is a good idea to "exercise" the battery about once a week. Let it run down most of the way. Also, you should calibrate the battery once a month. To calibrate the battery--and I believe Applecare will force you to do this before they are willing to replace the battery (unless it was on the recall list)--make sure the battery has been fully charged for at least 2 hours, then unplug the computer and let the battery run down until it shuts down, then wait 6 hours, then plug the computer back in and let it charge all the way.

    IM satisfied with the screen size. I am just wondering if an upgrade is worth it
    That is a question only you can answer. I concur with Phil, though. By the iPad Air 2. You obviously keep your devices a long time. So, buy what is currently the newest to insure you can keep using it. The iPad Air (great device) will stop being supported before the iPad Air 2. I have an iPad Air and will not be updating to the Air 2 as the difference isn't worth it to me.

  • I have a first generation iphone, just want to use it as ipod touch, no calling. stuck on usb to itunes/emerency call screens. how to proceed to fix....thanks

    I think it has been jailbroken and restored previously.  Some forums suggest that this may be the problem.  Is there an easy way to get it to just work like an ipod touch. Thanks for any suggestions.

    Try this way:
    Learn how to set up your old iPhone like an iPod touch (without a carrier plan).
    If this does not work, jailbreaking made your phone useless.
