IPhone 4 is not holding a charge and is very hot

I charged the phone all night and it only shows a 47% charge.  Plus the phone is very hot to the touch.  Has anyone else had this problem and what's the remedy?

Bring your phone in for battery diagnostics.

    The Warranty duration is the Warranty of the Original iPhone. If that Warranty has now lapsed, then the replacement has a 90 day Warranty from when you received the replacement iPhone.

  • My ipod touch won't hold a charge and gets really hot when im using it. what is going on?

    my ipod touch won't hold a charge and gets really hot when im using it. what is going on?

    Likely that the battery is dead.  I would make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store to confirm. Apple will replace the battery for this price:
    Apple - Support - iPod - Repair pricing
    There are third-party places which may be less expensive.  Here is one. Google for more.

    Apple do not sell batteries, but will replace the battery for a fee.  Phone your Apple Store for instructions.

  • MacBook not going to sleep and getting very hot

    I just purchased a MacBook and have been using it for a few days. I have noticed that it does not appear to go to sleep correctly and gets very hot in the process. I finished working on my MB about 45 minutes ago. At the time it was connected to the mains and I disconnected to catch my next train. I shut the lid and after a few minutes the sleep indicator light at the front dimmed once then stayed on permanently. I could not hear the drive spinning (though the drive is quiet on this machine and there was a lot of background noise) and assumed all was OK. Anyhow, I have just taken the MB out of its case some 45 minutes later and it felt extremely hot (almost too hot to touch, I would guess around 50ºC). The sleep indicator light on the front was solid white. I opened the lid and the machine woke up. Something not right here....Also power remaining was down to 72% so something has been using up a lot of energy and heating up the aluminium!

    ps. Whilst writing this email the MB has cooled down considerably but still warm.
    ps2. Probably not related, but I have firmware password protection enabled
    null

    I did see some of the other posts, but nothing about the MB getting so hot.
    I tried sleep from the menu and this seems to work (though I have rebooted the machine since the above report).
    What worries me is the potential fire risk/damage to the MB, the case was extremely hot.

  • IPhone 4s battery not holding a charge

    I just set up an account with AT&T  and got a  iphone 4s this was Wednesday 22nd May 2013, It didnt hold its charge, I had it charging all that night at 530am Thursday morning battery was at 100%  by 8am that morning it was at 36% with light usage, ie, facebook, email, a couple of texts.  Went back to AT&T they exchanged the phone for me, the same thing is happening.  Should I take it back to AT&T or take it to Apple?  So frustrated, we are currently driving across country to our next Army duty station having a new phone that requires constant charging is not helpful. 

    Hello there, Katronale2012.
    Just to rule out usage, before you have to travel again, look over this document that talks about getting the most out of your iPhone's battery:
    Apple - Batteries - iPhone
    http://www.apple.com/batteries/iphone.html
    Specifically,
    Optimize Your Settings
    Depending on how they are configured, a few features may decrease your iPhone battery life. For example, the frequency with which you retrieve email and the number of email accounts you auto-check can both affect battery life. The tips below apply to an iPhone running iOS 5.0 or later and may help extend your battery life.
    Adjust brightness: Dimming the screen is another way to extend battery life. Go to Settings > Brightness & Wallpaper and drag the slider to the left to lower the default screen brightness. In addition, turning on Auto-Brightness allows the screen to adjust its brightness based on current lighting conditions. Go to Settings > Brightness & Wallpaper and set Auto-Brightness to On.
    Turn off push mail: If you have a push mail account such as Yahoo! or Microsoft Exchange, turn off push when you don’t need it. Go to Settings > Mail, Contacts, Calendars > Fetch New Data and set Push to Off. Messages sent to your push email accounts will now be received on your phone based on the global Fetch setting rather than as they arrive.
    Fetch new data less frequently: Applications such as Mail can be set to fetch data wirelessly at specific intervals. The more frequently email or other data is fetched, the quicker your battery may drain. To fetch new data manually, from the Home screen choose Settings > Mail, Contacts, Calendars > Fetch New Data and tap Manually. To increase the fetch interval, go to Settings > Mail, Contacts, Calendars > Fetch New Data and tap Hourly. Note that this is a global setting and applies to all applications that do not support push services.
    Turn off push notifications: Some applications from the App Store use the Apple Push Notification service to alert you of new data. Applications that extensively rely on push notifications (such as instant messaging applications) may impact battery life. To disable push notifications, go to Settings > Notifications and disable notifications for select applications. Note that this does not prevent new data from being received when the application is opened. Also, the Notifications setting will not be visible if you do not have any applications installed that support push notifications.
    Minimize use of location services: Applications that actively use location services such as Maps may reduce battery life. To disable location services, go to Settings > Privacy > Location Services or use location services only when needed.
    Use Airplane Mode in low- or no-coverage areas: Because your iPhone always tries to maintain a connection with the cellular network, it may use more power in low- or no-coverage areas. Turning on Airplane Mode can increase battery life in these situations; however, you will be unable to make or receive calls. To turn on Airplane Mode, go to Settings and set Airplane Mode to On.
    Thanks for reaching out to Apple Support Communities.
    Cheers,
    Pedro D.

  • 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!

    Unfortunatly it sounds like something has gone very wrong when updating your iPhone. Its possible that some files on your phone may have become corrupt while the update was taking place. To be on the safe side, I would do as above and see if the problem still exist.

    I have had my iPhone 4 for about 1 1/2 years, with no problems. A couple days ago the battery drained in about an hour, I plugged it in to charge and it was not charging. After a few hours a message popped up on the screen about the temperature being too hot...the phone was very hot when I picked it up. The battery will not hold a charge and it heats up every time I plug it in. Suggestions???

    Make an appointment at the genius bar. An out of warranty replacement is $149.  It sounds like it may have gotten wet.
