IPhone gets very hot when not being used!
Been having some trouble with my iPhone recently. For some reason the iPhone gets hot - I don't mean warm... When it's in my pocket I can feel the heat being generated, or sometimes I'll pick it up from my desk and it'll be warmer than me, even when it's not being used.
It's started doing this recently. I've already had to hard reset it due to other issues but in addition to the heat issue the battery goes down really quickly, again when it's not being used. Today from a full charge it was down to 50% in about 2 hours.
I had suspicions it was due to a recently installed app, but I'm not sure.
Any ideas? Does it sound like hardware or software to you? Is there an app I can use to see what app is being used the most (in terms of CPU/memory/battery usage)?
Thanks both. I've restored the device and I'll see how that goes. In addition I've turned off Bluetooth since it doesn't work properly (the reason for doing the first reset). I'm finding if my headset goes out of range of the iPhone, it disconnects and never reconnects to the iPhone. If the headset is out of range for too long and I try reconnecting it via the BT menu option by selecting the headset, it tries to find it but fails. I end up having to completely re-pair the headset all over again.
Any reason for this or is it a known issue with the bluetooth?

My 3GS iPhone will not hold full charge for very long. It gets very hot in my shirt pocket even when hot in use. Any ideas?
Double-tapping the home button does not show apps that are running. This is not a task manager, it is merely a list of recently used/accessed apps.
Basic troubleshooting of the device is reset, restart, restore. Has a reset or restore been tried?
Check to see if updates exists for the apps, this could be a simple issue of a badly coded or buggy app that needs to be updated. -
Having problems with phone getting too hot when not in use
Hi there -- I'm trying to figure out what I can do to fix this. Recently I had to get a replacement S3 because my original shut off mid-use and wouldn't turn back on. The replacement has been here for about a month and in the last 2 weeks I'm having issues with it getting too hot. The first time it happened, I had it plugged into the stock charger for about 1 1/2 hours - and I had picked it up expecting it to be fully charged but it was extremely hot and had a warning on the main screen saying that the battery was critically hot and was not charging and the phone was nearly completely dead. I unplugged it, took the battery out and let the main phone body cool down. After about 15 minutes, the body felt like room temperature again, so I put it all back together. It turned on, charged normally that night and all was well.
Now for the last several days, I'm having issues again with it getting hot at random times when I'm not even using it (and not charging it). The last time, I downloaded a temperature app and it said the phone was nearly 105 degrees, and it felt the hottest right at the home button. Later that night after it cooled down, I noticed that the battery wasn't charging at all and was depleting rapidly on the charger. I restarted twice with no change and then took the battery out and let it sit for several minutes. After that it began charging again.
With it getting hot so much more often now, I'm starting to worry about this happening when I need my phone for an emergency as I spend a lot of time on the road transporting my kids to school and activities. Is there a fix for this? It doesn't appear to be the battery because my husband and I have the same phone and I've already swapped batteries with him - same issue for me, no issue for him. Please help? Thanks!Hello Micheliu813, let's get to the bottom of this together! Are you using the same charger that came with the phone or a 3rd party charger? We can also test the phone in safe mode to see if the device heats up again. Check here for steps: http://vz.to/1kb9LUM

Does 2012 mac mini get very hot when using logic pro
does 2012 mac mini get very hot when using logic pro
Are you saying that your machine does or is it an enquiry before buying ? I use a 2011 server model - well, it does get hot over a period of time, but I've very rarely heard the fan kick in, its a surprise when it does. As far as I know the casing has been specifically designed to conduct heat, rather than having any fancy grilles and so on, being so small in size. I haven't found it to be cause for concern, if that's any help.

In my macbook pro 15 inch mid 2012 model, my cpu and gpu will get very hot, when gaming or rendering sometimes over 200F. The fans only spin at max about 2900 rpm, when their max is 6400. I downloaded a fan control app, but how can i fix it?
Hi rhaughan,
I see that you have concerns about your operating temperature of your computer while using resource-heavy applications such as gaming applications. I have an article that will address some of the concerns you have mentioned:
Mac notebooks: Operating temperature - Apple Support
http://support.apple.com/en-is/HT201640
While there are third-party utilities that measure the temperature of a notebook computer, it is important to understand that these utilities are not measuring the external case temperature. The actual case temperature is much lower. Never use third-party applications to diagnose possible hardware issues—instead, contact Apple or go to an Apple Retail Store or Apple Authorized Service Provider.
You should also see this article for even further information about your fans:

IMac (Oct 2009) keeps shutting down and restarting when not being used.
At least once a day, usually when not being used, I will see a dialog box that say computer had to restart due to a problem. data in problem report does not clearly state problem - many multi-page entries
Have reinstalled OS 10.8.2 once
this morning tried to restart with safe boot and had spinning beach ball for more than 15 minutes. shut down and restarted nin recovery mode. verified and repaired permissions (all seem to be related to Canon Pronter plug-ins- had an error message yesteday asking if I wanted to repair printer software and I said yes). Printer seems to be working. Had one statement that indicated a screensaver issue-see below
a while back, iTunes album art screensaver hung up with just two album covers flipping in all rows and columns.
after a few restarts, it started working correctly again..- yesterday I set screen saver to never, but still had a crash this morningHere's the latest panic report. BTW, I ran for a while from an external system boot - very sloww (thumbdrive), but nothing happened. However, when I retarted I tried to restart in Safe Mode and the launch never completed (30 minutes without start)

My macbook pro gets very hot when running anything like games or videos
I just bought a macbook pro 2.3 GHZ i7 with retina display. It gets very hot when running just about anything of substance. When I run a game like candy crush, the temperature can get to 167 or more. I installed istat menus and started monitoring it. I did notice that the fans never went on but after istats I was able to make them come on. Without having a game going, the temperatures hover around 100. Once the game starts, it goes crazy.
I don't really know what the problem could be or if this is normal (it really can't be....This is way too hot). I have owned the computer for about 2 months and I need to know what to do.You are still under warranty. Call Apple Care. Make sure you get a case number as all repairs have an additional 90 days of warranty.
#1 - You have 14 days from the date of purchase to return your computer with no questions asked.
#2 - You have 90 days of FREE phone tech support.
#3 - You have the standard one year Apple warranty.
#4 - If you've purchased an AppleCare Protection Plan, your warranty last for 3 years. You can obtain AppleCare anytime up to the first year of the purchase of your computer.
Take FULL advantage of your warranty. Posting on a message board should be done as a last resort and if you are out of warranty or Apple Care has expired. -
I have tried charging my itouch on the computer, in a docking station, and it gets very hot. It won't turn on, even after trying all the resets I've read on this site. Any ideas what the problem is? Is it fixable?
Hey Halefarm, What happens if you connect directly with the charging source with your cable, no docking station? Since resetting did not help, try connecting directly with the cable to your power source and your iPod. Next try a different cable, there could be a short in the one you are currently using. If still will not charge correctly, I'm leaning in the direction of a failing battery. Set up an appointment to have your iPod evaluated by Apple. Have your iPod evaluated for possible battery issues. Take the cable and dock and have them tested as well. If it is a failing battery, you choices are; replace the battery, either through Apple or third party shop. Replace it yourself, if you can. Or, you look into getting a new iPod. I don't have the cost of a new battery for an iPod 3, but I'm sure it's under $100. Check with Apple for exact pricing. Good luck, Cheers.

Battery discharges very quickly when not in use
After fully charging my Nano and leaving it for a day I find that it discharges leaving 2-3 hours of playing time.
In fact, even when fully charged I would be lucky to get 8 hours playing time.
I appreciate that the battery slowly discharges when not in use but my Mini certainly retains its charge far longer than my Nano.
I have tried "conditioning" the battery occassionally but no use.
Anyone else have this problem or is my batter faulty?nevermind - just read an article on the apple site saying the battery is in use even when it's turned off, i suppose to save the date and time.
Wish there were an option to completely turn it off - i dont really care about the date and time. -
Does anybodys iphone 4s get very hot when using devices such as camera?

It would not be uncommon for the 4S to get a LITTLE WARM while getting used with the screen on etc, but not to the point where it gets so hot that you cannot keep your finger on it.
If you can easily replicate the problem and you got it from an Apple Store then I would make an appointment to have it looked at/replaced.
If you got the 4S from elsewhere then I would get in contact with them and arrange for it to be looked at/replaced. -
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.
