If your Mac tends to overheat, the first thing to do is install AlDente Pro and turn on Heat Protection so that your battery will stop charging if the temperature goes beyond normal. Some of the easiest ways to try and fix your Macbook or iMac running hot are managing the workload for your machine, reducing your multitasking zeal, cleaning out junk or malware, and a few more solutions we’ve outlined below.
Overheating may also be a sign of a more serious technical or safety issue, so in some situations you’ll have to take your machine to service to make sure it’s safe to use. Next, if the tasks you give your machine are processing-power heavy, your Mac might be heating up because it’s trying to perform too many operations simultaneously, meaning dozens of open tabs in your browser or several power-hungry apps running at the same time might get your Mac to heat up. Any dust gathering inside your Mac over the years you use it might also contribute to overheating. There are a number of possible reasons your Macbook Pro, Air, or other Mac is getting hot - it might just be placed in direct sunlight or its vents are blocked, preventing them from properly cooling down your Mac’s hard-working internals.
