Does the iPad Air get hotter than previous iPads?

I find the iPad Air gets a lot hotter than previous iPads.  Does anyone else find this?

If the iPad is getting excessively hot, you should take it in for evaluation and service.

  • Does the macbook air get hot from use?

    I am considering purchasing a Macbook Air.  I have had problems with notebook PC's in the past getting very hot.
    Does the Macbook Air get hot from use?

    Yes, well, virtually every computer has a fan in it; many fail their mission.
    Now that you mention it, I saw no grill or mesh anywhere when I looked at the MBA at the Apple Store.  Is it where the lid meets the body?  I didn't see speakers, either, although I heard music.

  • New iPad air, ? about downloading previous iPads apps

    Just upgraded to the new ipad air from 1st generation ipad. 
    I backed up my old ipad to my mac book pro before I traded it in.  Now I am installing all my previous apps onto my new ipad but it is taking forever.  I had it plugged in overnight and it's still not done.  Am I doing something wrong?  I have the ipad plugged into my mac since I heard it was faster to download this way.  I have approx. 75 apps to download.  Will I just have to wait?  Kinda frustrating but will be worth it.   Any help is appreciated.
    I am also new to the MacBook pro retina so maybe I am missing a setting or something I am not aware of.

    I'm having the same problem actually.  I'm thinking it's an issue with the store, not the device.  Even loading up iBooks on my mac has been a bit slow tonight.
    Maybe it's just overloaded at the moment?

  • MacBook Pro late 2008 gets hotter than usual with 10.6.4?

    Hi all
    So my computer usually gets hot even just idling, and the fans start revving up from just watching a few SD vids in quicktime, but now after this update my computer gets even hotter.
    Playing standard definition videos would just get to a little over 70˚C ish but now it's about 81˚C. I have to use SMC fan control and set the RPM to max (6k RPM) in order to bring temps back down to 69-70˚C. It seems with every update the temps go up, but this one is the most dramatic. I'm using the integrated graphics chip instead of the dedicated chip. I could only imagine how hot this thing would get if I were using that beast >.<
    If I can't stop the temps from going up, I'm gonna have to sell this comp, as much as I'd hate to do... Living in Phoenix AZ, a machine in your lap that gets over 178˚F isn't exactly ideal :P
    Does the macbook air get as hot as the MBP? I don't have any use for the dedicated GPU anymore.
    I have a late 2008 MBP if it helps any.
    Hope someone comes up with a solution

    You don't have to underclock your MBP to achieve acceptable temps. Just move away from Arizona's hot summer climate or get an air conditioner for your workspace. Pay attention to the maximum ambient air temperature spec for the MBP (95°F), and minimize the use of it at air temps close to that, because 95° air doesn't absorb heat as efficiently as your MBP expects it to. Get the MBP off your lap, where it shouldn't be, so air can circulate freely across the bottom of its case. Keep it out of the sun at all times. Turn off BlueTooth and Wifi when you aren't using them. Disconnect peripherals you're not using. Quit apps you're not using. Check Activity Monitor to see whether you have any hidden processes using lots of CPU cycles and raising the machine's temperature unnecessarily. Never rest the MBP on any soft surface, particularly when it's playing videos, gaming, or doing any other processor-intensive task.
    I have a late-2008 MBP like yours, and its CPU temperature very rarely exceeds 145°F, because I pay attention to the common-sense practices listed above.

  • IO Operation (read/write files) in IPAD AIR downgrade ~50% than the one in IPAD4

    Summary:
    UnZip the same file with the same native unzip method (native zlib) in IOS7, ipad air take +50% more time consumption than the one in iPAD4.
    for unZip, it main perform the IO read/write files in ipad, does apple air already changes the file system ?
    Steps to Reproduce:
    UnZIP a file with native zlip on both ipad AIR and IPAD 4 :
    IPAD AIR: 16GB
    IPAD 4: 16GB
    ZIP file size: 700KB
    Files in zip file: 225 files (120 files are images)
      after remove the images, the time on IPAD AIR will save 50% time consumption
    unZip method: the native zlib
    unzip time on IPAD AIR+ IOS7: ~1200ms
    unzip time on IPAD 4+ IOS7: ~800ms
    Expected Results:
    The unzip time should be almost the same on IPAD AIR and IPAD4.
    Actual Results:
    For same IO operation read/write file, IPAD AIR gets the 50% downgrade performance than the one in IPAD4
    Version:
    IPAD4: 16GB WIFI + IOS7
    IPAD AIR: 16GB WIFI + IOS7
    does anyone else encounter the same problem ?
    A bug already submitted for apple: https://devforums.apple.com/message/993060

    I even tried porting the code to Gumbo and running it there - still, no fonts are being enumerated.
    If you're too lazy to read the whole above post, here's the problem in one sentence
    An SWF that contains a textfield with embedded fonts, when launched by itself succeeds to return the embedded font using Font.enumerateFonts(false), however when loaded using Loader.loadBytes into AIR, it fails to see those fonts even though the textfield in it is displayed and editable.
    How do I make the loaded child application and AIR see the embedded font?

  • My iPad Air gets a error when I try to backup.   It does sync properly.  My iPhone backs up and syncs without isssue.  I am running latest itunes and iOS 8 versions.  Thank you.

    My iPad Air gets an unknown error when I try to backup.   It does sync properly.  My iPhone backs up and syncs without isssue.  I am running latest itunes and iOS 8 versions.  Thank you.

    Try rebooting your computer and reset the iPad. Press and hold both the Home button and the Sleep/Wake button continuously until the Apple logo appears. Then release the button and let the device restart. You will not lose data doing this. It's like a computer reboot.

  • My ipad air getting close all apps automatically within seconds while connecting wifi. This issue is started after the updation of the iSO 8, Please help me to rectify this issue.

    (A) Try reset iPad
    Hold down the Sleep/Wake button and the Home button at the same time for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears
    Note: Data will not be affected.
    (B) Try reset all settings

  • I bought an MacBook Air 13 from Dubai last month. However I see smudge lines on the screen of the laptop which are prominent if the screen is black. Does the macbook air have international warranty ? Since I am in India right now. Can I get it fixed here

    I bought an MacBook Air 13 from Dubai last month. However I see smudge lines on the screen of the laptop which are prominent if the screen is black. Does the macbook air have international warranty ? Since I am in India right now. Can I get it fixed here ?

    I don't know what service options are available in India but if this helps I do know that once you purchase your Apple product the warranty is valid anywhere in the world.

  • Why does my new Air getting a "hang up" on the Internet in about 10 minutes of work and I have to close it and open it and go on...?

    Why does my new Air getting av "hang up" on the Internet in about 10 minutes and I have to lock it and then start again????

    The warranty entitles you to complimentary phone support for the first 90 days of ownership.
    If you bought the product in the U.S. directly from Apple (not from a reseller), you also have 14 days from the date of delivery in which to exchange or return it for a refund. In other countries, the return policy may be different. If you bought from a reseller, its return policy applies.

  • Does the MacBook Air 2012 supports SDXC Cards?

    Does the MacBook Air 2012 supports SDXC Cards?
    Thx

    Hi! How are you? The reason why I'm here is to find out more about SDXC support/compatibility info on the macbook air 2012 and how to fix this nagging issue if it's fixable.
    I had just bought a Sandisk extreme pro 64GB rated at 95mb/s for my Nikon DSLR. Unfortunately, MBA struggles to detect or mount my card, after a few sweats, it would mount, but then very slow to process and preview the images as "Thumbnail preview". Then, after a few more sweats, you can scroll through the thumbnails smoothly.
    Streaming HD videos straight from the SD Slot is butcher chopping the beef. Video lags, stutters, chops, in otherwords, USELESS and a pain in the neck. So you just want to copy all the files to your macbook, and play from there. Copying files from SDXC to my macbook takes forever; writing is also another issue that take much more than forever!
    I have a top of the line macbook air 2012 (i7, 8GB, 512) and I always thought it's a versatile reliable computer but now I'm very disappointed. On the other hand, doing the same things on my macbook pro 2010 is seamless. I also tested on my windows 8 desktop to be flawless as well.
    Therefore, the memory card is not the problem. It's macbook air's sd slot that's a failure. I never thought spending $2,199 for a super computer would make me stress like this. In addition, the magsafe 2 is another failure in design. It always disconnects just by moving my macbook air from one spot of the table to another. Having it charged while on my lap gets on my nerves when it keeps getting disconnected! I hate Apple for doing this. If only there was a Windows notebook that surpasses Apple's design, I would never EVER buy Apple products EVER again.

  • IPad Air gets suddenly white screen and black apple

    When I am working, my iPad Air gets suddenly (one or two times per week) white screen and black apple screen for a few seconds before I get back the control, anyone has the same problem?

    It could be an OS issue but I would not bet on it. I just had a similar case myself (but white apple on black screen) on two unconnected devices almost simultaneously - both on an iPad and on an iPod touch. It is possible that there is something different going on here, perhaps at Apple's servers.
    It could of course also just be a coincidence.

  • Does anyone else's ipad 4 get really hot my ipad 2 didn't do that

    Does anyone else's ipad 4 get really hot my ipad 2 didn't do that?

    My ipad 4 gets warm, at the left side, I am confused with it because I am aware that ipad 3 gets hot, and apple already fixed it with ipad 4. Some ipad 4 users can experience it (I searched it in the net because I am concerned and worried with it) but there are all some users that doesn't experience it at all some even used it for hours and no change in temp but my ipad gets warm with minutes of use

    Does the iPhone 4S supports Bluetooth pairing with iPad mini?

    Only from within peer-to-peer apps from the app store or internet tehering (if proved by the carrier)
    They support bluetooth for handsfree telephone, stereo music, some keyboards, some peer-to-peer apps from the app store, and internet tethering when provided by the carrier.
    Other than these it will not connect to another iphone, phone, computer, device, ipad

  • Does the Macbook Air need to have a fan under it to prolong its life?

    I just bought a Macbook Air and would like to know if an external fan is necessary as it was for my Macbook. Even with the fan the Macbook would get really hot. I noticed that the Macbook Air gets warm also, but with everything internal being solid state I don't know if the external fan would be beneficial or not. Thanks for your thoughts, in advance.

    Anytime you can keep an electronic device nearer to a preferred temperature, you will do nothing but good for it. In this case, you may make the fan work at slightly lower RPM. Primary cooling of the MBA is acccomplished by means of an interior fan, coupled to a heat sink/pipe leading to the CPU/GPU. This same fan also draws air over the logic board. Interior heat is also expelled, to a lesser extent, by means of being radiated and conducted by the case bottom.
    However, blowing a fan across the bottom is probably the least efficient manner in which to aid cooling of the MBA, especially if you are drawing power from the MBA to run that fan.
    If your goal is to extract heat from the case, you can more efficiently do so if your heat conduction to the case itself is more efficient than air, as the case bottom has a rather low surface area to exterior dimension ratio. There are heat conducting materials suited for contact cooling, such as the Targus Heat Defense Pad. This device also consumes no power from the MBA. The downside is that it is only functional for a finite period, wherein the crystals remain somewhat solidified and are able to take on heat.
    If you are using the MBA for extended periods, perhaps a fan type cooler will offer some help, but don't expect much if it also contributes to heat generation by being powered from the MBA itself. Look for something that actually conducts heat from the case, and uses a fan across a high surface area element to transfer conducted heat to the air.
    But as far as the MBA actually "needing" additional cooling, ...in most cases no. If it were the case, then Apple would be making the recommendation. However, there are definite situations where users are putting much more heat loading than what would be considered "normal", and in such cases, it is definetely something to consider. I use a heat defense type pad from time to time, and it works great.
