Failing to sleep (again) VERY HOT MBP in the bag/like a bakery

Hi 2 all, i'm italian so my english should be C-- but i have a trouble with my MBP about sleeping the mac.
Simply don't work randomly and the white led remain on withot pulse. I tried to see in Console if any task stop the sleep process -sounds a joke but...- but none appears. I add also another synthom: sometimes the power-chord led switch off, then i leave and reinsert just 1mm on magsafe and return on (equally on green nor orange).
Can you suggest previous -solved- thread about the "don't sleep" trouble?
Should be an hardware failure?

My MBP had narcolepsy so bad earlier this year that I sent it for service: dog no limp for vet. Also have had fewer shutdowns lately, but the "OS-update-fixed-it" dog won't hunt - shut down twice today and once two days ago.
Could it be power-supply related? The shop asked that the battery be left out so there would less chance of damage on shipping, and of my two power adapters, fewer shutdowns for the one not OEM. (OEM had had a frayed cable at the case, but a friend did a really good repair.) Maybe the battery is weak (it does show only ~ 85% charge when I disconnect the power adapter sometimes.) Is there any kind of app that checks the battery? How does a user come up with a claim that his/her battery will "only hold a 1800 mAmp-h charge"? (http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=2234305&tstart=0)
More frequent and possibly related, when the computer has gone to sleep it often won't wake up from hitting the spacebar, but a short press on the power button will call up a "do you really want to shut down" panel which I can cancel out of. Shouldn't work like that, but it does.

Your MBP is NOT meant to be used on your lap.
Try SMC and PRAM resets:

Very hot MBP 2.4

I just bought a MacBook Pro 15" 2.4 which is a lovely laptop.
However it gets very hot. I understand that it is normal to get extremely hot between the keyboard and the display. I have no problem with that.
The problem is that my MBP also gets very hot to the left of the mouse pad (even when it's not doing anything, with 98% idle time).
Is that really normal??

That ST9160823AS hard disk is the optional 7200 RPM 160GB drive, and it does tend to run a bit hotter than the 5400 RPM and 4200 RPM 2.5" disks. The left side of the notebook closest to the operator is where the hard drive is located internally. I think what you're noticing is entirely normal.
If you want to feel hot, try running Handbrake and ripping a few DVDs and touch the metal between the keyboard and the display. My Fluke digital surface temp probe was saying 140 degrees F (60 deg C). Playing World of Warcraft with all the graphics options cranked up at 1440x900 resolution made the entire top and bottom of the MPB hot to the touch, though it ran beautifully.

FanControl makes a VERY hot MBP 20 degrees cooler!!!

I have been amazed at how much cooler my MBP (10th week model). I was running well over 150 degrees F before i installed "FanControl" program that becomes a part of your System Preferences. Now, my MBP runs 115 to like no warmer than 120. I mean this program is amazing.
Anyone else use that program or any of the other heat programs to help the MacBook pros cool themselves off? And if so, how have you found them to work? Any better than the one Im using any drawbacks that anyone has heard of.

I also installed Fan Control and totally agree - it works extremely well, and has finally turned the MBP into a practical 'laptop'.
By keeping the fans turning over slowly all the time, and slightly increasing the fan speed the moment the machine starts to heat up, it keeps the external casing temperature no more than comfortably warm.
Reported internal temperature is now rarely above 60°C (140°F) and the fans usually run so slowly they are inaudible. I presume this is causing some hit on battery life, but it's not enough to be conspicuous.
Can't see why this would have any impact on the warranty - it is just a piece of software, and is not interrupting any normal behaviour of the machine - just fine-tuning the fan operation.

IPod touch gets very hot when using the Internet/Video

Hello. I have a question about my iPod touch (8 GB, 1.1.4, January Software Upgrade). When I go to Safari and browse the web, or when I'm watching a long video (YouTube and memory) the iPod gets really hot, particulary on the top, near the Sleep-Wake button. Is this normal or should I worry?

Is it hot to the touch? or is it warm? My iPod only gets warm, but not hot, down near the home button after/during a sync or watching videos/searching the web.

After Upgrade very hot system and the

Exhaust is very loud!!!
How to ininstall??

Click on the Spotlight icon, what does it say?
Do you get the box to enter a spotlight search or does it say it is indexing your hard drive?
It maybe that the index has finished and your machine will now cool down.

Ipad mini charger getting very hot

ipad mini charger getting very hot. Not the ipad. What is it? A problem, or normal?

Warm is normal. Too hot to handle, literally, is not. So if you can hold it, then it's probably fine. Mine gets hot when it's charging. But if it's too hot for you to hold then you should stop using it and get it checked out an apple store.

My MacBook Pro with Retina display is getting very hot, is this normal?

I recently downloaded Counter-Strike Global Offensive and Minecraft on my Mac, and after about a minute of playing one of these games, my Mac would get very hot right above the keyboard. The fans get very loud and it seems a bit unusual, Is this damaging my Macbook pro?

Use it and keep it on when it gets very hot take it to your local Apple Store you might be successful and receive a new one, because the unit has to have some type of defect. Take your receipt if you still have it.

The phone very hot, close the app

z1 if I run dowlad, wifi, or recent game, the phone gets very hot and close the app, android services, I have to use the reset to turn off the phone and wait for it to cool, I do not think it is normal, in fact I hope that it is not normal.

Mac Mini always waking up because of Wake on Demand but never sleeps again

Hi there,
i first of all like to give you an overview of my setup:
2 Locations:
1. Cologne (Germany)
1x Mac Mini - 10.6.2
Router: Linksys WRT 54 GL (running DDWRT 2.4)
2. Düsseldorf (Germany)
1x Mac Mini - 10.6.2
2x Macbook Pro - 10.6.2
Router: Linksys WRT 54 GL (running DDWRT 2.4)
and one Time Capsule attached to it as a network storage (Time Machine) without using any routing function.
Here is what i'd like to do:
As i often travel between Cologne and Düsseldorf i'd like to access every Mac from everywhere. Thats why i bought those 2 Linksys Routers as they allow me to wake my Macs with Magic Packets from my iPhone. Whenever i need a file from the other mac i just hit "wake up" in the Sleepover iPhone-App and the mac will show up in the finder because "Back to my Mac" is enabled.
Everything worked perfectly fine... until.. Snow Leopard came out. It has this nasty "wake on demand" feature which will wake every mac every two hours to perform some sleep proxy adjustment. Unfortunately there is no way to wake a mac running Snow Leopard via Magic Packet without simultaneously activating the Wake on Demand feature.
Now i would be perfectly fine with all macs waking up from time to time but the problem is that all macs perfrom this adjustments 2-3 times perfectly fine but the fourth time they start and will not sleep again. This leads into the situations that every Mac i have is running when i wake up the next morning.
What can i do to avoid this? It is really annoying as i sleep in the same rome as the mac (which is producing some really loud noises at night when running all the time).
I always get "wake reason = RTC" which stands for Real Time Clock, the Wake on Demand stuff...
I am really going crazy as i cannot figure out why those macs just dont sleep anymore.. sometimes it works (for the first 2-3 times) and then it doesnt.
Thank you!
André

I have quite a lot. 2 iPads, 3 iPhones, 2 Apple TV, 1 Windows PC, 1 Windows server, and a few other network appliances (Blu-Ray player, Xbox360, etc.) I haven't changed any configuration on any devices.... it seems this issue just appeared 2 days ago. I will try to reset my router to see if it helps and report back.

Lumia 535 getting very hot while playing basic

Hi I have been using Lumia 535 for about 2 months and now its getting very hot while playing basic games like subway surfer etc. for atleast 10 to 15 minutes, it was alright before but the problem started couple of days back.
please find a solution to fix this issue.
Thanks

Hello, GyaniT. Rebooting your phone would help the issue. Note that this is normal for the phone to feel warm. For example, when you are using multiple high-performing apps, listening to music for an extended time, or when it is charging. To avoid getting too warm and to protect itself, it may automatically slow down, close apps and, if necessary, switch itself off. Let us know if you have any clarification.

Purchased a new Official PSU Now Laptop appear to get very hot -Satelitte pro p300 1ay

Can any one help i recently Purchased a new Official PSU from Authorised Toshiba Dealer , and now the Laptop appear to get very hot particurlarly at the lower back of the screen hinge- What I want to know why is this happeing and is it damaging the laptop, as it get quite hot, unless I change the power saver mode, or dont have many web pages/ tabs open

Air flow is a major issue for all laptops. Therefore it is essential to make sure that several things are completed on a regular basis to keep your laptop running as cool as possible.
1. Make sure your air vents are free of lint and dust and your fan(s) are free of the same.
2. Use compressed canned air, spray air vents and fan(s) for 2 to 3 seconds at a time only; otherwise you may damage your hardware.
3. Open your laptop use Arctic Silver thermal compound applied to the heat sinks on the CPU.
4. Make sure your drivers for video and BIOS, chipset are all updated.
5. The other way to keep your laptop cooler is to purchase a cooling plate.
It fits under your laptop and it has 2 fans and it keeps your laptop twice to three times as cool.
It helps to draw out the hot air from within your system.
I am including an image to help show the vents.

MBP not waking from sleep and getting very hot

When my Mac Book Pro 15 inch is left for a period of time greater than approximately an hour and plugged in it should automatically go into sleep/hibernate mode. Something happens during this period but I can hear the fan running heavily, the MBP is very hot and I can do nothing to wake it. The only option I have found is to hold the power button down for a few seconds to power the unit off then back on. When the MBP restarts I am greeted with the message "The computer was restarted after Mac OX X quit unexpectedly". I have also seen many kernel panics occurr on a regular basis. This is a new Mac Book Pro and was recently sent back to Apple for diagnosis. I was told it was my third party memory but upon instaling my original Mac memory the problem is STILL present.
Anyone else seeing or heard of this type of behavior???

Hi, I am having the sleep problem with my 17" MBP. When I shut the lid down and it goes to sleep mode for short periods it is ok but any period for longer than 1 hr it will not wake when I lift the lid or press any keys on the keypad. It was also turning itself on and going into sleep mode when I left it to charge overnight from a turned off state untill I sent it for repair. Now it just has the sleep problem, what I have noticed is that it does not play up when I start it up in Safe mode. I have just done the hardware test from the install disc and there were no problems, then I did the archive/Install bit and that did not solve it either. Ah well back on the phone tomorrow unless someone can shed any light!

Sleep makes MBP very hot.

10.4.11
Most times, it seems, when the MBP is put to sleep, it is very hot when I pick it up, later. anyone else experiencing this?

This has happened to me a couple of times too. According to my IStat widget, it's the CPU and CPU heat sink which are hot. The explanations in other replies that talk about some process hanging up seem the most logical. Another indicator is that upon wake-up from this scenario, a shutdown takes an unusually long time. Unfortunately when I came upon my computer in this state, I didn't think to run the IStat widget which would have told me what the CPU was doing.
Though this may be wrong (more learned advice welcome), I take some comfort in the fact that the temperatures, though hot, were within ranges told to me by folks on this same discussion forum as being tolerable -- roughly 60-70 degrees centigrade.
