Make a hot iPhone 5 cooler using ice

I am in countryside now. And I am very nessecary to use internet via my 3G.
I am using presonal hotspot via usb and my iphone is very very hot.
I find this way to use a package or a bag of ice or cool water and then place my iphone over it.
What about my phone? I usually do it before.
It will OK? or something (plastic) will be broken??
Thanks.

Moisture is bad for electronics in general. It is possible liquid will get into your phone if you do this.
The iPhone is designed to function just fine if the ambient temperature is between 32º to 95º F. If you are not seeing a notice on the screen that says the iPhone is too hot and needs to cool down, you do not need to do anything to help it along.

My iPhone 5 gets very hot while in use or just charging?

Is it normal for the phone to get so hot while being used just for simple things like listening to music or charging

Hi Lizard914,
It is entirely possible that what you're experiencing is within normal limits. Here is an article with additional information:
iOS devices: Keeping device within acceptable operating temperatures
http://support.apple.com/kb/ht2101
When using the device or charging the battery, it is normal for it to get warm. The exterior of the device functions as a cooling surface that transfers heat from inside the device to the cooler air outside.
Take care,

Where did you purchase this. The US phones do not come with the SIM removal tool anymore. They haven't for some time now. I'm not even sure it comes with any of the devices anymore. You can just straighten out a paper clip and do the same thing.

How to keep iPhone cool in hot sun

I live in Florida. Being retired, I enjoy sitting by the pool or fishing from my boat, listening to my collection of music on my iPhone 4S. Many months of the year are quite hot. How can I keep the iPhone cool in the hot sun so I will not get temperature warnings?

Thanks Kappy, for overstating the obvious! But I do not have an umbrella, rather I am in the direct sun most of the time. Keeping it in an enclosed case sometimes helps, but not often. I also cannot reliably put it inside a cooler filled with beer or margaritas, as I am afraid of getting it wet, and sometimes, the cooler is not close enough to me.
I was hoping to find someone who knows of a foolproof iPhone "cooler" case.

Once my iphone4s updats to ios 6.1.2,the electric quantity runs so fast!And the mainboard is so hot, when I use it,especially,make calls. If I make calls exceed two minutes, it gets so hot, that I can't be able to hold.

Once my iphone4s updats to ios 6.1.2，the electric quantity runs so fast！And the mainboard is so hot， when I use it,especially，make calls. If I make calls exceed two minutes, it gets so hot, that I can't be able to hold. If the battery is full at night, it falls down almost a half, when I get up. I don't know what is wrong with my phone, need help.

Thanks for the input.

My father in law has a brand new iPhone 5s using iOS 8.1.1 - under settings, general, keyboard, all keyboards... There is no option for 'predictive'. Has anyone else had this? And if so, how can we make it appear? Many thanks!

Is rotation lock on? If it is, you'll see most of a circle at the top of the screen with a lock in it.
Double click the home button, swipe the bottom row left-to-right, look at the leftmost icon. If there's a lock there, click it. Then click the home button.

Iphone 4s getting hot up when using the network. is it a sim problem

iphone 4s getting hot up when using the network. is it a sim problem or battery problem?

You posted in the iPad forum instead of the iPhone forum. To get answers to your question, next time post in the proper forum. See https://discussions.apple.com/index.jspa I'll request that Apple relocate your post.

Hot iPhone 4S (Cases)

I have a MacBook Pro and an itouch. I just recently got an iPhone 4s. After flying and my computer etc. passing through airline security I had some problems with my MacBook. Not big problems but enough to make me wonder, like we have a choice anyway. I would rather be safe yes but I just wonder if all of that is good for them. Has any one else had any problems after airport security?
Also when I got my phone I had a case put on it, one of those cases that covers it all up. I hesitate to mention the name of the case maker for fear of getting in trouble. Anyway, my phone started to heat up after while. It gets hot when I use it very much and also when I charge it. The battery may drop 40% in a matter of minutes. I have taken it back and am getting another one so that problem is fixed. I was just wondering if maybe the case had something to do with the battery and the phone getting too hot. Maybe that is a problem for some other people with their phones as well. I know there has been a lot of talk on here about that subject because I have spent the weekend looking. I wanted to research before I took my phone into the carriers store. Of all the threads that I read no one mentioned about the case. I did read some basic things on the battery and the phone and they do say to let the phone breath a bit. That is why I wondered about the case I was using.
I love my Apple products and will continue to be an Apple user! Thanks to all that have the knowledge to comment on all of these Discussions and answer questions. Great job!

Also I didn't look for "cases" under discussion thread but found them after I posted. Sorry about that.

What should i do if my ipod is getting really hot when i use it/

I need help my ipod keeps getting really hot when i use it

I would suggest you stop use for a period of time until it cools down. When you turn it off, make sure you exit out of whatever program you are running. If it persists getting hotter, to the point where it's hard to hold, I would suggest you take it into the Apple store nearest you. Depending on how long you have had it, they may be able to replace it for you free of charge.
It is abnormal for that device to get extremely hot but when it is running multiple programs, such as playing music and surfing safari, it can heat up.

How can I restore my data from iCal? I didn't make any backup, but I use time machine with an external HD. I deleted iCal when I deleted my gmail account. I have tried to restore, but I can only restore the iCal software and not the data.

So what is your question?
If you forgot your encryption password:
Warning: Make sure it's a password you will remember or write it down for safekeeping. If you encrypt an iPhone backup in iTunes and forget your password, you can't restore from backup and your data will be unrecoverable.
If you can't remember the password and want to start again, you must perform a full software restore and chooseset up as a new device when iTunes prompts you to select the backup from which to restore.

I set up "Find My Iphone App" using the same apple id and password on two iphones. Now the app only finds the phone that I did the setup on first. Do I need a different apple id and password on each phone for the app to run correctly?

I setup two iphones on "Find My Iphone App" Using the same apple id on each phone. Now the app finds only the phone I setup first. Do I need to use two different apple ids? If your answer is yes then how do I errase the setup in the second phone and assign a new id?

As TJBUSMC1973 states, and as I said earlier, the Find My iPhone app has nothing to do with your use of Find My iPhone. The app is just used if necessary to locate another iOS device from that particular iOS device. To see if both of your devices are being located in Find My iPhone, log into www.icloud.com and select Find My iPhone. Both of the devices should appear. If they do not, then go into whichever of the devices does not appear and make sure that Find My iPhone is activated. It has to be activated through iCloud, and for both to show on the same map, they both have to have the same iCloud ID.

Can multiple users on iMac running Yosemite access features, i.e., iPhone calls, using individual apple id's?

We have a iMac that is used by 3 different people, each with a separate log-in. Under Yosemite, can the individual users access the new features of Yosemite, i.e., iPhone access, using their individual Apple ID's?
If yes, how? What does the sytem administrator need to do to give each user access to the features when they log-in?
If not, then what the heck, Apple?

Thanks for your response. I want to make sure I understand this . When installing Yosemite, it requires the apple id. This would be the apple ID of the admin doing the install. If admin enters their Apple ID, then the functions related to their Apple ID will be the default. User B logs in. What does he do to set up his Apple ID to synch functions between his iPhone and the OS? I understand that if he has admin privileges, based on his account profile, his settings should not override the previous admin set up because they are separate accounts, so it is just how the other two users activate the new Yosemite features that I'm unsure about. Will this work for all new features including iCloud drive?
