    MacBookPro is not too hot.  It's time to change the battery?  Can I do it myself?

    The Mac runs his fans in a feedback loop, based of the internal temperature measured.

    If the temperature goes up and the fans are not speed up to compensate, you probably have a hardware problem.

    If the Mac becomes too hot, it will make an uncontrolled emergency power off.

    EDIT: Replacing the battery is a completely separable question not related to temperature. Is the Samsung phone batteries that catch fire, not Mac.

  • Satellite A110 stop suddenly - processor fan does not work

    Hello!

    The CPU on my brand-new A110 fan does not work. The laptop turns off suddenly, without hibernation or standby for any CPU consuming activity.

    Can it be linked to a configuration / software problem? If so, how to check?
    Thank you very much.

    Hello

    For me, it looks like a hardware malfunction. If the fan does not work as it should then it has nothing to do with the software.
    The A110 seems to be a very new unit and I n t think that the dust and debris are responsible of these automatically shut down.

    Hello

    The fan that was installed in the satellite P100 expected works well and should be able to cool the CPU without any problem.
    I recommend you to check the settings in the energy saver. There, you can choose between different modes.
    It is also important that the fan grids are free. The air circulation is very important for the cooling of the processor

    iPhone 4S OS 9.2.1

    Have you ever tried to force reboot the phone by holding down the button sleep and home for 10 seconds, until the Apple logo comes back again? You won't lose data by doing this, but it can cure a few glitches.

    If this does not work and to rule out a software problem, set it back to factory settings, without using any data backup later. Test the phone and if the GPS works again, restore the backup.

    If the GPS does not work after the factory reset, it is a hardware problem, and Apple has to repair the phone if GPS can be fixed.

    In the case where it cannot be resolved, it could offer to replace the iPhone 4s, if you are willing to pay the price for the refurbished phone.

  • Satellite M40 - Power stops suddenly

    Hi friends,

    Initially, I had some problem with my adapter which, after some time, I set myself. But after that 2 days back, my power supply laptop suddenly stops and that its battery is not too, it closes without stopping. The power light turns off too, but after 7-10 minutes, they reglow (LED) and after that I can restart my computer, but this problem from happening again.

    In addition, due to this sudden put off tension, my computer screen is now black come with a very light very light until the final start screen comes.

    I will be really grateful for your help!

    Hello!

    This is strange, but I think it could be a matter of the AC adapter. You can test a different adapter for your laptop?

    Maybe that your laptop is also overheating and stops due to a higher internal temperature. If you need to clean your laptop with a jet of compressed air. This could blow the dust of fans cooling and, therefore, it of not necessary to disassemble the laptop.

    I clean my cell phone every 3 months and never had overheating problems.

    Good bye

  • Satellite P20 S203 stops suddenly

    Hello

    In the last month my Satellite P20 S203 does so well, and unfortunately it seems that the problem is a hardware one (but I'm not sure, and that's why I'm writing here)

    The computer just stops suddenly (it happened 2 or 3 times in the last 30 days); every time it happened I was on the web on Firefox, but I'm sure that has nothing to do with it, and I'm also 99% sure that this is not a virus, malware or something like that, cause I formatted there are 3 months and nothing else behave in a strange way, the computer is slow or something like that.

    The last two options are that the question can be of a physical nature, or a software (as a conflict between the operating system and installed programs); I'm more to the first, but I do not know and I need assistance to find out... What should I do?

    In addition, when it stops suddenly, it won't turn with the first try.
    He needs like 10 or 20 times to open like an old car that won't start; the first, say, 5 times I try to turn it on, it appears only the toshiba logo.
    It then passes through a screen, I can not read because it goes too fast.

    Then a black screen, then it turns off again.
    With the next try that it goes a bit further, as it displays the windows logo, but as this image is fading, it stops halfway through the fading process, resulting in a darker windows logo, as it is too difficult for her to load the OS!

    But then it turns off again!

    Then after a few other attempts it finally loads windows.

    Any help would be much appreciated, thanks!

    Hello

    Maybe the laptop stops due to a higher internal temperature.
    High temperature leads to an overheating of the questions and the laptop would be stops down automatically to prevent the equipment from damage.
    The other point is that the high temperature may affect the RAM modules.
    In this case the laptop computer may freeze or you will receive a Blue Screen Of Death.

    I had a similar problem in the past. About 6 years ago my first oldie started to overheat.
    I cleaned the cooling modules, but the questions again.
    Finally, I contacted the laptop technician in downtown, and he said that the thermal grease that is placed between the cooling module and the CPU must be renewed.

    He did, and it helped!

  • Guard Satellite Pro stopping suddenly.

    My laptop is suddenly stop - and do not restart.
    "It happens esp if I try to do a scan Mcafee - when it comes down to a ' 1386 file" on the C: drive it stops! (but it also stopped at another time).
    I've defragmented it and cleaned up the cookies etc. It is about 50% left on hard drive and even if 4 years old and a little slow sound otherwise was a good laptop Satellite Pro.

    Any ideas? Ah its driving me crazy!

    Stopping suddenly may also be due to overheating. Usually when he runs some CPU or graphics intensive application, the material can get the critical temperature level and simply turns off.

    I'm sure that after some time you can start your laptop. He is old enough laptop model and it's time for cleaning. I really can't say if this has something to do with the preinstalled stuff.

  • 1900-303: stop suddenly

    Hello

    Looks like your laptop is overheating. Take a look on the cooling rack, maybe there is little dust that prevents the fan to have enough air. Try to clean it. If this does not help, I think it is best to leave the laptop to be checked by a technician.

    I hope this helps.

  • X100e stops too hot,

    Last month and 4 times my X100e (AMD Athlon Neo MV-40, 3 GB of RAM) got too hot, to the point where he stopped himself. I did not notice that it was an emergency stop, temp of related, but I guess because the bottom of the unit has been extremely hot.

    One of those occasions that I was transferring video to my Zune player, other 2 times I was downloading music and 1 just to listen to music while browsing the web.
