Apple devices are durable, but that doesn't mean they are impervious to damage if they are not handled carefully. One of the most common problems that can afflict a Macbook Pro laptop is overheating, which can result in long-term damage that ultimately shortens the lifespan of the machine. In order to keep your computer in the best shape possible, you need to learn how to keep it at a consistently stable temperature.

Here are a few tips to help you deal with a too-hot laptop:

  • Elevate it: Laptops will generally become overheated if the vents and fans are not working properly or are blocked. If you want to make sure that the computer vents properly, elevate it using a stand.
  • Replace the fan: If there is a problem with your laptop's fan, it will need to be replaced. Get a second opinion before you invest in a new one, but don't wait too long or it could result in even more heat damage to your laptop's interior.
  • Shut it down: One of the best things you can do if your laptop has become too hot is to shut it down and leave it alone for a couple of hours. A computer will often grow too hot because it is being used for too long at a time, so make sure to give it an extended break when necessary.
