My iPhone 5 is getting extremely hot and my battery is only lasting,at most, 4 hours! What should I do?

My iPhone 5 is getting extremely hot, especially when it is charging! It was gets hot when my battery starts getting low. My batteries is also not lasting nearly as long as it used to! It last at max 4 hours if I'm lucky! I don't low what I should do!

Hello landry morgan. Just shared. Turn your brightness to auto. If you just buy this phone. Let the battery totally drain couple of time and fully charge again. It will became great after that.my phone take 2 days to totally drain.awsome. If your location to far away from network transmitter it will became little bit hot at the battery.if you very near to wifi you will feel your iphone5 it surf like a ferrari + no heat at all. P/n; dont look at pecentage of your battery. Just take note how many hour until its totally drain.

My iPhone is getting extremely HOT and losing battery charge by 50% in one hour.

my phone is getting too hot and in an hour or so it will loose the battery life and will turn off ..
i just had a word with the apple care they were like you can get the phone replaced from the country were you bought from, as such i bought this phone from Dubai and now they are like it cant be replaced in india..
its really frustrating

Where you are sounds far hotter than anyplace I would like to be...in any case, here is some info on acceptable temperatures and other temperature related info..
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT2101
from this article...
Operate iPhone, iPad, and iPod touch (4th generation) in a place where the temperature is between 0º and 35º C (32º to 95º F). Low- or high-temperature conditions might temporarily shorten battery life or cause the device to temporarily stop working properly.
Store the device in a place where the temperature is between -20º and 45º C (-4º to 113º F). Don’t leave the device in your car, because temperatures in parked cars can exceed this range.
are you within this range?

If you already created an Apple ID, you have to enter a credit card in order to use that ID now. If you don't have a credit card at all, you will have to create a new Apple ID to use without a credit card and you will need to have another email address in order to do this.
First you will have to sign out of your current ID in Settings> iTunes & App Store>Apple ID. You can tap the ID and tap Sign Out. Now you can proceed with creating a new Apple ID according to the instructions in here.
Create iTunes Store account without credit card - Apple ...
You are saying that you don't have a credit card, but if you had one, you could enter the credit card in order to use the ID that you already created, but you never have to use it. You can use gift cards or just download free content. But unless you create the ID as outlined above, you must enter payment details.

Iphone 4s white getting extremely hot

I have had my iphone 4s for 16 months, and just recently it has been getting extremely hot, to the point where it has actually burnt my finger this evening, the heat was coming from the signal bar down the right hand side, then the heat radiated from the back as well, it get hot ususally when charging but i had only been paying on my phone for about 15mins when this had happened.

Standard troubleshooting...
Try a reset by pressing the home and sleep buttons until you see the Apple logo, ignoring the slider. Takes about 5-15 secs of button holding and you won't lose any data or settings.
Remove all apps from Recently Used list...
- From any Home Screen, double tap the home button to bring up the Recents List
- Tap and hold any icon in this list until they wiggle
- Press the red to delete all apps from this list.
- Press the home button twice when done.
If still a problem restore with your backup.
If still a problem restore as new, i.e. without your backup. See how it runs with nothing synced to it.
If still a problem, it's likely a hardware issue.

Macbook Pro is getting extremely hot and fan seems to be making a lot of noise when running windows 7

I recentely installed windows 7 on my Macbook Pro 15' late 2008 maybe 10-15 minutes into browsing the internet or watching a youtube video it gets really hot and the computer fans seem to be making a lot of noise. Is there any way to resolve this issue?

My iPhone 5 iOS 7.0.4 still gets hot and drains battery with everything but cellular turned off. What to do?

Have a new iPhone bought in late July 2013. It had zero heating issues and battery issues until the past week (Nov. 2013). Now, the iPhone gets hot to the touch and the battery drains within 2 to 3 hours, EVEN AFTER I HAVE DISABLED ALMOST EVERY FEATURE OF THE iPHONE.
This iPhone has iOS 7.0.4, installed within last 36 hours. I then erased the entire iPhone and restarted it as a New iPhone. Then I went in and turned off everything in the way of Settings that permit disabling. All notifications, spotlight searches, application updating, accessibility features, push features, location services, etc. were turned off or disabled. Brightness is set to Auto. Don't use the iCloud.
After doing all of that, which essentially rendered this iPhone just a clunky old cell phone, not even using WiFi, I connected to iTunes on my computer and restored my backed up apps, photos.
After the Restore, I went back into settings and made certain that, again, all notifications, app services, location services, updatings, etc. were disabled, still.
The problem persists.
It seems the only solution is to get rid of all my Apps and never use WiFi, or iCloud, or Mail. That is unacceptable.
Does anyone have a solution, besides my calling on the warranty on this phone?

Basic troubleshooting from the User's Guide is reset, restart, restore (first from backup then as new). Try each of these in order until the issue is resolved.
If the problem continues, take the device to Apple for evaluation and possible replacement.

My iPhone 5 is getting very hot and battery drains quickly.. normal?

I've been having a variety of signal related problems with my iPhone 5 and I'm wondering if anyone can offer any advice. From day 1 I have observed that my phone will have poor signal strength or will switch from 4G or LTE into Edge mode, even if my wife standing right next to me (same network same iphone 5) has better signal. Phone also frequently gets quite hot (to were it's uncomfortable to hold).
I did a long hike last weekend and in the space of 3.5 hours, while doing nothing but listening to music and taking a few photos, the phone was nearly drained (20%). If I tried to take a photo it would simply shut down after pressing the shutter button. I also had no signal (phone was searching), even though other AT&T iphone users around me had signal and were texting, making calls and sending photos (this was from a mountain top so the temps were quite low).
Apple diagnosed the radio in my phone and said it is fine (good attenuation and no dropped calls). They recommended that I wipe the phone and set it up as a new phone versus restoring from a backup (what a pain). I did this and while returning from an outing yesterday I had 3 bars of LTE signal and noticed that with just light browsing the phone got very very warm and the battery was draining quickly. In the space of just an hour the phone plummeted from 75% to 30%.
I'm trying to determine if all of this is "normal" or if I should demand a replacement phone. I have tons of Macs, iPads, iPhones, etc (for both myself and my wife) and I've never seen Apple so reluctant to do a hardware swapout as they were when I was in the store yesterday.

Did you transfer the backup for your 3GS to your iPhone 4S?
Try a reset, which is done by pressing and holding the home button and the sleep/wake or on/off button simultaneously until you see the Apple logo and then release.
If no change after a reset and you transferred the backup for your 3GS to your 4S, try restoring your 4S with iTunes as a new iPhone or not from a backup to see if this makes any difference.

After I updated my iPhone 4S to iOS 6, it is extremely hot and a full charge depletes in less than an hour.

What is the issue?

I don't think that you would understand if I explained....
I had this happen with a jailbroken Iphone 3gs when there was a new ios version. It was slow, hot, and everything crashed (when the battery wasn't dead. What you need to do is copy all of your data from your
Iphone from your phone to itunes. Shut off your iphone, unplug the usb iphone cable from your computer. Then, while its not plugged in to a usb port on your computer, plug the fat bit of the iphone cable in to your iphone. This part is important... While your phone is off, hold down the home button of your phone while plugging in the usb end of the iphone cable in to a usb port on your computer. Keep holding it while it is booting until itunes asks if you would like to recover your phone to factory conditions. click "yes" then swithch the drop down menu to "New Phone" (you will be tempted to restore your old one.) After all of the updates for ios are installed, sync over all of your data (minus apps if you want to be extra careful). This will take a while. you should be good to go once all of your data is re-transfered (though it takes a while for this first sync).

Since ive downloaded IOS 6 my battery will not keep a charge. I took it to Apple store and they restored it and my battery still only last 30 -45 mins

Since i downloaded IOS 6 my IPod 4s will not keep a charge. Went to Apple store and they restored it. ive turned every app off and now my battery only last 30 to 45 mins.Is anybody else have/had this problem. Apple store employee's told me this is very common with the IOS 6 upgrade

Shows what they know. Battery issues rarely relate to an update. The fact that they restored it and the problem continues indicates a hardware issue with the battery.

Stuck on recovery mode iphone 5 iOS 6.1.3 and i't won't download the restore on iTunes what should i do?

hey guys i have a problem with my iphone 5 i bought it in dicember 2012 and i updated it to the version 6.1.3 and it worked well but like 2 weeks later i got stuck in recovery mode and i want to restore it on iTunes but it won't download the ipsw don't know why i need some help please i live in bolivia,southamerica

What a joke Apple is. So many problems with restoring and updating phones. Definitely NOT users friendly anymore. A simple update to iOS7 causes MASSIVE mayhem and bricks 10's of thousands of phones WTG Apple. Hope Samsung smashes you out of the phone market. I will NEVER buy another Apple product again. You will NEVER see this on Android phones NEVER!!!

My macbookpro 15" feb 2011 gets extremely hot

Hi
i purchased my macbook pro 15" refurbished from appl about a month ago, this is the specs http://store.apple.com/au/product/FC723X/A
so when i play a game gta 3 or use logic 9 and do work. the compter seems to get extremely hot and im not sure if this is normal. i understand it needs to work hard so i dont expect it to be normal and at a cool temp but its heat is to the point where u can't hold your finger on the body nemore beacuse it will burn you after awhile
was just wondering if anyone had any thoughts, ideas, tips, explanations for this
thanks in advance
Rich

If your machine isn't shutting down abruptly, it isn't getting hot enough to damage itself. It will always get very hot during heavy gaming, which is the most demanding activity you can use it for. Be sure you are always using it on a hard, flat surface that permits air circulation underneath the machine, and you may want to consider using a cooling pad under it during heavy usage.
For objective information about how hot your CPU and GPU actually get, download and install iStat Pro:

Iphone 4 getting extremely hot, not holding charge and Camera freezing entire phone.... HELP?

My Iphone 4 is 5 months old and is getting extremely hot to the point where you can barely hold it or have it in your pocket
The battery does not last for longer than a 2 or 3 hours and the camera causes the entire phone to freeze
I have already restored original settings with no luck and tried the hard reset
Any suggestions?

Make a Genius Bar appointment at your nearest Apple Store.
If none are close to you call AppleCare and arrange to have it serviced.

HT1688 MY IPHONE 3GS START TO GET REALLY HOT, AND AFTER THAT ALMOST EXPLODE...ITS BROKEN NOW.... THE BATTERY GETS FAT... WHATS THE SOLUTION NOW???

MY IPHONE 3GS START TO GET REALLY HOT, AND AFTER THAT ALMOST EXPLODE...ITS BROKEN NOW.... THE BATTERY GETS FAT... WHATS THE SOLUTION NOW???

Unfortunately it looks like your 3GS' battery has expanded so much that it cracked the whole case wide open. If you have AppleCare on your device then you're all set, just take it to your local Apple Store.
If not, then still take it to the store. Complain about the battery bursting, and make sure to tell them that it's for sure a defect (you'd think it's obvious, but sometimes you just need to drive the point in), and that it potentially could have been and still be a hazard.
Remind them that the phone has not been in any adverse conditions, extreme temperatures, or abused in any way but that you just merely used it normally. (I'm assuming that's the truth?)
If they're good about it they should replace the broken phone for you; but unfortunately there's little chance of repairing your current device.
