My MacBook Air gets really warm Whenever I use my MacBook Air for more than 5 or 10 minutes the bottom of my computer and the part over the keyboard get super warm. It also has problem charging when it gets hot. It just stays at the same procent unless I switch between the two outlets, then it charges maybe 2 or 3 procent and I then have to switch again. The battery also goes down really fast when it gets hot, but I have 89% battery capacity. How can I fix this? Is there something I can do myself?
