My iPod touch 4G keeps getting very hot and the apps keep crashing

My iPod Touch 4G has been getting very hot and the apps keep crashing. What can I do?

The Basic Troubleshooting Steps are:
Restart..  Reset..  Restore from Backup..  Restore as New...
Try a Reset of the Touch... You will Not Lose Any Data...
Turn the Touch Off... ( if it isn’t already )
Press and Hold the Sleep/Wake Button and the Home Button at the Same Time...
Wait for the Apple logo to Appear and then Disappear...
Usually takes about 15 - 20 Seconds... (But can take Longer...)
Release the Buttons...
Turn the Touch On...
If that does not help... See Here:

  • My Iphone 6+  gets very hot and the screen pops up a little

  • My iPod touch 4th generation is very hot at the top.... why

    This is  when I use it for about 5 minutes, after using it for a bit of wifi browsing, playing withs apps (that do not use a lot of memory or are do not use CPU and GPU0 and using my iPod to listen to music. I don't use my iPod straight after charging so that is not the problem. I tell you that it is so hot that you could fry an egg on it, it is at the tope of the device you can feel the heat and you can feel it on the front and on the back. Please help! It is in very good condition because it has had a case on it ever since I got it, it is still in warranty. What should I do? How much will it cost? How long will take?

    it is better that you get your iPod get checked by an Apple technician!!!
    because i think this problem is serious. My iPod 4G doesnot get that hot after the extensive use u have mentioned!!!

  • I have had an iPod Touch 3rd Gen for two years and the apps have worked fine in the past. Suddenly the apps will not launch, they appear to start then just exit. Is there a reason why it is doing this?

     I have had an iPod Touch 3rd Gen for two years pretty much and the apps have worked fine. Suddenly when I go on an app it appears to launch then just exits. I tried turning the iPod off and on again, but that made all my apps behave like that. Settings and those things work fine still. Should this suddenly happen? I dont want to lose all 204 apps.

    - First try resetting the iPod. Nothing will be lost.
    Reset iPod touch:  Press and hold the On/Off Sleep/Wake button and the Home
    button at the same time for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
    - Next try downloading/installing a new app
    - Restore from backup
    - Last, resore to factory defaults/new iPod.  this is last result since you will lose app data.

  • My laptop is getting very hot and the fan seems to always be on. The battery dies quickly too.

    Mac Pro 4 + years old. Bottom getting hot. Fan seems to run constantly when in use, or when charging. The charge does not last longer than 2 to 2.5 hours. Unplugging seems to cool it off as well as shutting down.

    Pre-Mavericks
    Open Activity Monitor in the Utilities folder.  Select All Processes from the Processes dropdown menu.  Click twice on the CPU% column header to display in descending order.  If you find a process using a large amount of CPU time (>=70,) then select the process and click on the Quit icon in the toolbar.  Click on the Force Quit button to kill the process.  See if that helps.  Be sure to note the name of the runaway process so you can track down the cause of the problem.
    Mavericks and later

  • My apple iP ad and charger plug keep getting very hot. I have tried resetting it but this doesn't help. Please can anyone help?

    please can you help? My apple I pad min version 7.1 (11D167) model MD531B/a. Capasity 13.4 GB keeps getting very hot and the charger plug. It seem to run down quickly too. It's been going on for a long time now. I have tried resetting it but this does nothing. Kind regards Rosemary.

    Hi Rosemary,
    These devices will get very warm (even uncomfortably so) when charging. From my own experience this is exacerbated if the device is in use at the time of charging or if the device is in a case that does not allow air to reach the device.
    You will see a warning on the iPad's display in the form of a yellow triangle and exclamation mark long before the device reaches a dangerous temperature.
    As long as the device is no warmer than a nice cup of coffee, you're in the clear.
    As you have mentioned that your battery is draining quickly, this could indicate that the processes running at the time are rather intensive on the iPad's resources and this would naturally raise the temperature of the iPad.
    If you have a look in Settings>General>Usage and look for the Standby and Usage times toward the bottom, are the two numbers significantly different? If you see that the Usage and Standby times are identical then you are experiencing a software issue where the device is not entering sleep as it should when not in use.
    Cheers

  • Lenovo Thinpad keeps getting very hot!

    My laptop keeps getting very hot and I'm worried that it will crash and burn, should I back up folders and documents etc? At the moment I keep turning it off to cool it down, other option would be to aim the fan at it! Pleas can someone advice a non techie person on what to do. Thanks

    Please measure temperatures (http://www.cpuid.com/softwares/hwmonitor.html)
    After that, try disabling turbo-boost, (http://www.tautvidas.com/blog/2011/04/disabling-intel-turbo-boost/)
    and measuring again.

  • Every time i try to sync my 4th gen ipod touch itunes won't recognise it and the ipod keeps beeping - is there anything I can do?

    This is really frustrating.  Every time i try to sync my 4th gen ipod touch itunes won't recognise it and the ipod keeps beeping - is there anything I can do? I've tried using different cables. Itunes works fine with my family members ipod's & iphones...

     The best way to manage your music when you have multiple iPods is to change the settings under "Options" so that you manually manage your music instead of it doing an automatic synch each time you connect.  To add only the songs you want, highlight them and then "click and drag" them to your iPod.  This way none of your daughter's music gets added and you're not in danger of deleting your playlist as well.  It will show you how many songs you've added and you can then click on your iPod to verify.  To delete her songs off your iPod now, click on the music tab under your iPod so show everything you have stored.  Find those songs you want to delete, click on them to highlight then go up to the Edit window and click delete. This will erase them off your iPod but be careful when you highlight.  I did that and then had to reload a cd on my boyfriend's, lol. hope this helps

  • I have an older Ipod Touch, I bought a new one and the Itunes on my computer is too old to recognize my new Ipod Touch and cannot be updated.  Is there a creditable software program I can use to get all my old music from my old iPod Touch to the new one?

    I have an older iPod Touch, I bought a new one and the Itunes on my computer is too old to recognize my new iPod Touch and Itunes cannot be updated.  Is there a creditable software program I can use to get all my old music from my old iPod Touch to the new one?  It is my understanding that the music cannot be saved onto my new iTunes, b/c I did not have iCloud. I have over 2,000 songs I just cannot part with. PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE help some how!!  THANKS!

    I had the same problem with my iPad, i couldn't get the newer version of itunes because the computer was too old and my iPad couldnt sync with the old itunes. I got a PC from school a few months later so that solved the problem for me. Unfortunately i don't think there would be a program to put your music on your iPod, iTunes should be the only way to transfer files to Apple devices. What operating system are you running and what version of it is it?

  • When I try to restore my iPod touch 4G I get error 3194 and I have the latest version of iTunes

    When I try to restore my iPod touch 4G I get error 3194 and I have the latest version of iTunes

    Error 3194: Resolve error 3194 by updating to the latest version of iTunes. "This device is not eligible for the requested build" in the updater logs confirms this is the root of the issue. For more Error 3194 steps see: This device is not eligible for the requested build above.
    Are you trying to restore to a PC or an Mac?  Either way, I'd remove iTunes, empty the trash, restart, and download/install the latest version.  Also, check the versions of OS that the latest build of iTunes will work with.

  • When I'm streaming videos from my Macbook Air to my AppleTV, my Macbook Air gets rather hot and the fan works hard and is loud trying to keep the laptop cool.  Is this harmful to the laptop?  Is this normal?

    My MBA fans start running when I play video too - the CPU's video processor is working pretty hard to decode the video. The fans job is to provide better airflow.  The time to worry is when you play video and the fans don't run.
