THE MACBOOK GOT VERY HOT WHEN I WATCH VEDIO

I found that when i watch vedio or movie, the computer got very hot ,and the speed of the fans is really high. My macbook is 15-inch late 2013 with retina. i think it shouldn't happened when i watch vedio. sometimes, it also happened when i was only use safari to open the website. i dont know whats wrong with my computer

nothing is wrong with your computer.  Macs run hot when under stress (Watching movies, gaming etc).  When I watch a movie on my MacBook Pro, the temps get as high as 86°-94°c.

  • My MacBook Pro gets hot when I'm not doing much and when I watch YouTube videos the video skips, scrolling doe as well.

    I bought the new, and my first MacBook Pro 13" a little over a month ago for college and love it, but have started to realize a couple problems I can't seem to solve. The bottom of the MacBook becomes very very hot in a short amount of time, and I really don't think I'm doing much to cause it. Another issue is while I watch a Youtube video in HD, even if it's completely loaded, it skips every so often and is slow and also makes my computer very hot. When I try to scroll up and down to view a web site, it also sometimes skips. I really never thought this would happen to Apple computers and hope someone can help me fix these problems! Thank you very much in advanced!

    The widget that works well on your Dashboard is called IStat Pro, It monitores all running statistics updated every 15 seconds.     Your fan  always runs at about 2000 RPM and will increase up to 6000 RPM after 140 degreesF and higher is reached.   This widget will show you continuos measurements for you to see

  • 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:

  • When I turn on my Macbook pro retina display i get a black screen and i noticed that the machine gets very hot, any clue how to make it work?

    When I turn on my Macbook pro retina display, a black screen show up while I hear the normal start up sound.  I noticed that the machine gets very hot, any clue how to make it work?

    If the Mac is too hot to touch, take it in for service.

  • When I was watching the video, the computer becomes very hot, may I ask how you can solve

    When I was watching the video, the computer becomes very hot, may I ask how you cansolve

    Usually if you have some kind of hardware failure there is some beeping during POST or most motherboards now have LED indicators to produce and error message based on the type of failure
    So if its bad memory, not place properly, mismatched, processor not inserted properly, mismatched voltage or voltage connector not present etc it beeps or generates the error id.
    Power supplies can be tested for failure. There are some walk throughs for testing just them with a switch, paperclip or a jumper (I'd suggest not doing this if you are not familiar with the dangers of electricity).
    Memory can be tested with memory diagnostics programs like Memtest+
    Processors can overheat if the proper precautions have not been taken usually you will get a POST beep or error code for that.
    If the motherboard has no response then do the basics first:
    Check power connectors and power supply. Once you determine that is not the case move on to other items like graphics cards in all the way or memory.

  • HT3302 If iv cracked my glass can I still claim in the 1 year warranty as my phone is getting very hot when I call

    Iv cracked my glass and only had my iphone5 for 4 days, it is also getting very hot when I call so can I still claim for a new phone if iv got a crack

    For a manufacturing defect then yes.
    If you drop your phone and broke the glass then no, you would have to buy an out of warranty iphone

  • 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.

  • HT4060 When I charge my ipad on some occasions the plug gets very HOT.  the ipad still charges but slower.????

    When I charge my ipad using the small UPSpower adapter, the adapter gets very HOT on about every third use.  It still charges but more slowly.  Is any one having a similiar problem??  An sugstions as to how to correct it???

    Not staff or owner by a long shot.
    I just know that anecdotally I have seen people reporting issues with their mini's charging. Is there a real issue or not? I don't know. Not a day goes by that a person doesn't post here complaining that their iPad won't charge and it turns out that they're trying to do it via USB or with the iPhone block.
    But while there are a lot of user fixes sometimes it's good to have the pros take a look at things,and at the very least document that there has been an issue.
    the four main reasons an iPad won't charge (beyond being plugged into a USB port)
    Bad cable
    bad outlet
    bad brick
    rule those out and it leaves issue with the iPad.

  • HT4543 What to do if the fan never comes on...even when the IMAC is very hot?

    I've had my IMAC for 2 months.  I was using the computer for an extended period today whikle playionmg a game.  Game play seemed after a while but I concluded it was due to a lot of info being "worked".  Anyway, the computer was very hot after a few hours of playing.   I became concerned 'cause the fans never came on.  Is this typical, or should i have heard them earlier?  Also, is there a manula way to engage the fans?  Thanks

    Just to be sure do a smc reset.
    But also install any one of the temperature monitors like iSTAT Pro, iSTAT Menus, Temperature Monitor, Hardware Monitor, etc.
    And if you are really concerned that the fans you can override the built in settings by using smcFanControl.

  • The bottom of the computer gets very hot

    I just got this macbook pro MC721ll/a. The bottom of the computer gets very hot as it is sitting on my lap. I have never had a mac before but I don't think it should be doing that. Also, I don't hear any fans running. Is this normal?

    The OS keeps the fans at a minimal speed because running them any faster would needlessly use extra energy and make more noise.  Manually setting your fan speed won't wear out the fans because they're brushless AC fans (so they're not subject to any significant mechanical wear as they spin).  One thing to keep in mind about SMC FanControl: Apple engineers spent a great deal of time, and probably money as well, designing the cooling systems for the computer (both in terms of the physical systems, and the algorithms that control the fans and regulate the voltages of the components).  In addition, Intel CPUs have their own separate temperature monitoring systems which will severely throttle or even shut down the CPU if temperatures get dangerously high.  So even in the extremely unlikely event that your fans ever actually spin too slowly, the computer will still shut itself off before anything bad happens.
    And to answer your first question, it is definitely normal for the bottom of the Macbook to get hot because the body is made from aluminum, one of the best thermal conductors known.  Basically the bottom acts as a heat sink, allowing the Macbook to cool off more efficiently and run faster.  Most other manufacturers make the bodies of their laptops from plastics, which conduct heat about as well as fiberglass insulation or a mink coat.

  • Just Purchased MBA; the Charger gets VERY hot

    I just purchased the Macbook Air. When I plug it in, the Charger gets very hot after a few minutes and if I listen closely, there is a faint hissing. I assume this is not normal, correct?

    I plugged my late 2010 MBA 13 in recently and then after about 20 minutes, needed to move it and the charger to another outlet. I had never paid any attention to how warm this charger can get. It was so hot, I could barely hold it. I checked it a few minutes later and it wasn't any hotter, but not any cooler either. It's will be a year this month since I bought this computer so the warranty is set to expire.
    Good thing for AppleCare...
    Ryan
