    My iphone is getting hot and draining the battery. This started yesterday, I've had the phone for over a year with no problems,

    Delete and re-download the Dropbox app. You will have to sign in again and adjust app settings.

  • My iPhone 5 gets really hot and eats up battery with cellular turned on. Is this normal?

    The battery just went from a full charge to 40% in 3 hours and all I've done's go on instagram, some light browsing and texting. I just updated to 6.1.3, can't tell if it's the firmware cause I just got my data plan and started leaving cellular turned on. There's no LTE here or anything if that changes anything.

    I had same issue, apple give me a new phone, they say it might be software problem, but the 2nd phone has fast drain too, I took it to apple , they restored my phone as new, and iCloud backed up my contact. I thought about the whole thing, I used to sync it to my window, but this time I synced it with my Mac. 87% at 3:30pm. I think that window has bugs. It is not my iPhone 5's problem. After all those stressful days.

  • HT201401 When last charging my iphone 5 it got really hot, and then the screen went black. Now my phone wont turn on, register when i plug it into the computer, reset, or charge.

    I've already tried plugging it in to reset-nothing.
    I've tried holding the top and home button-nothing.
    Plugging it into the wall-nothing.
    Using a different cord- nothing.
    this is an iPhone 5. with whatever ios system that came with the iphone 5. did not upgrade to the ios 7 yet.

  • HT1688 MY IPHONE 3GS START TO GET REALLY HOT, AND AFTER THAT ALMOST EXPLODE...ITS BROKEN NOW.... THE BATTERY GETS FAT... WHATS THE SOLUTION NOW???

    MY IPHONE 3GS START TO GET REALLY HOT, AND AFTER THAT ALMOST EXPLODE...ITS BROKEN NOW.... THE BATTERY GETS FAT... WHATS THE SOLUTION NOW???

    Unfortunately it looks like your 3GS' battery has expanded so much that it cracked the whole case wide open. If you have AppleCare on your device then you're all set, just take it to your local Apple Store.
    If not, then still take it to the store. Complain about the battery bursting, and make sure to tell them that it's for sure a defect (you'd think it's obvious, but sometimes you just need to drive the point in), and that it potentially could have been and still be a hazard.
    Remind them that the phone has not been in any adverse conditions, extreme temperatures, or abused in any way but that you just merely used it normally. (I'm assuming that's the truth?)
    If they're good about it they should replace the broken phone for you; but unfortunately there's little chance of repairing your current device.

  • IPhone 5 getting really hot and battery charge not lasting very long at all??

    iPhone 5 getting really hot and battery charge not lasting very long at all??

    Try some of these to save battery time:
    Settings>Notifications>[Turn off any notifications you don't need]
    Settings>General>Software Update (Make sure you're up to date)
    Settings>Brightness & Wallpaper> Auto-Brightness on (And that your brightness is not to the max)
    Settings>Privacy>Location Services>Turn off/Stop apps from using it
    Settings>Bluetooth>Off
    Settings>Mail, Contacts, Calendars>Fetch New Data>Manually
    Settings>Wi-Fi> Off (When you don't need internet when you're out and about)
    To stop overheating, note these:
    Operating Temperatures: 0° to 35° C (32° to 95° F)
    Non-Operating Temperatures: -20° to 45° C (-4° to 113° F)
    Hope this helps!

  • HT1688 I am having issues get my email in one of my mail accounts so I tried to "DELETE" the whole account.  But my phone will not delete a mail account.  And the phone is getting really hot and battery was full 2 hours ago and now at 25%.

    I am having issues get my email in one of my mail accounts so I tried to "DELETE" the whole account.  But my phone will not delete a mail account.  And the phone is getting really hot and battery was full 2 hours ago and now at 25%.

    Well, you don't say what happens when you try to delete the account. So I don't know what else to recommend. However, if your phone is not charging, is that the mains charger or the computer USB? Also, if it not showing any change to battery percentage, then something is wrong with the software. The next step in user troubleshooting after the reset is a restore from backup. However, considering the condition of the phone right now, I would be more than willing to say your backup is going to be corrupt. But you can try. If that does not fix the device, then you restore as new, not from a backup. If the phone works, then you can try restoring the backup again, but if it messes up, you are going to have to restore as new again. If the restore as new does not work, then you need to make an appointment at the Genius Bar or Authorized Apple Service Provider to get the hardware checked.

  • Wondering why my iphone 5S is getting hot and burning the battery all of a sudden.

  • Can some 1 help me, since yesterday when i bought this phone, my device very hot and drain my battery so fast

    can some 1 help me, since yesterday when i bought this phone, my device very hot and drain my battery so fast, i've already turn off what ever i can , especially for time zone,but still drain my battery so fast, anybody know how to solve? my ios is new

    I had the same problem and went to see the genius bar and they swapped it no problem. The heat is because the battery is draining fast not the other way round. iPhones do get hot sometimes but not always with fast battery drain. They have a powerful processor and no fan so they will get warm when thinking hard.

    That article only applies to previously purchased music, apps and books.
    Currently iTunes does not allow for re-downloading movies.  This may happen in the future with iCloud, but that remains to be seen.
    Your best bet is going to be to contact iTunes via email here:
