Beginning : no fans .. now : fans on

Hi,... I have a new 13'' alu macbook since november. Very happy with it.
I almost haven't heard the fans since I received the mb.
During the past few days, the fans are working whereas i'm not using the mb more than before (safari, mail, msn, skype, word and excel ...)
Any ideas why ?
Thanks

Open Activity Monitor in your Utilities folder. Set the Processes drop down menu to All Processes, then click twice on the CPU column to display in descending order. Look for a process consuming a lot of CPU time. Select it then click on the Force Quit icon in the toolbar. Note the name of the process and how much CPU time it was shown using. This may have been a minor one-time event, but if the same process starts using too much CPU time even after you've quit it, then there are other underlying problems causing this to happen.

User-developed Fan Control for the S10(e)

Hello and welcome.
When you've searched the internet and found this thread, it's possible that you are an owner of a Lenovo Ideapad S10 or S10e which has a little problem with the behaviour and/or the noise of the fan. In this post you will get all the informations you need to handle this problem for yourself. It should also be the same on every S9/S9e.
Just a few comments before we begin:
This is not an official support or solution by Lenovo.
We are just normal users as you are, but we get rid of the fan and wanted to find a way to handle it. So if you want to try anything of the methods described here you have to know that you'll do all this only at your own risk. We are not responsible for any damages of your device. You should only use these methods if you know what you are doing.
Please note that this thread is only for discussing, improving, trouble shooting and perhaps extending the fan control utilities. Any general complaints about the fan problem itself should be placed in the original thread right here: http://forums.lenovo.com/lnv/board/message?board.id=IdeaPad_Netbook&thread.id=795. It already has 80+ pages (the link goes to the first page) and it is better to exclude all the fan control stuff because there it's very difficult to keep an overview.
Here you may post all of your questions, ideas/brainstorming, concerns, thanks and so on and you are really invited to participate and be an active member.
In this first part of this post I'm going to summarize all information about using a fan control utility. For any newbie it will be enough to read this post to get all necessary information. The second part does the same for developement of fan control utilities as we still have no known or working fan control utility for Linux, Mac OS X and other OSs I've forgotten - for now.
For getting started you need a S10 or S10e with an up-to-date BIOS. For the S10 it's the 90 67, for the S10e the 66.
The battery issue
Under very specific circumstances - that we haven't figured out yet - it might happen that your Lenovo S9/10(e) no longer detects the battery while using S10FanControl or S10Fan. It might occur after 2 minutes, it might occur after 2 months, it might never occur. It does not occur using Notebook Hardware Control.
It can be solved by removing the battery, waiting 10 seconds and put it back in. Then the battery is re-initialized and the detection works again.
S10FanControl - Windows
The first utility is S10FanControl created by user dresslerc. The current version is 1.0.0.1, available here: http://www.mediafire.com/file/yd5xmnrnijf/S10FanCtrl1.0.0.1.zip. After you've downloaded it you just have to extract it and start the .EXE in the "Release" folder. Here are the notes and the description dresslerc posted right here:
Everyone,
I've uploaded a version which everyone can use to test with. Remember this is still a TEST version although I think it works for the most part. It should work both on the S10/S10e.
Please install the .NET Framework 2.0 or later first.
Then click here to download the exe: http://www.mediafire.com/?jlg2enkjdxn
Once downloaded, extract the files and hit hte S10FanCtrl.Exe. Once this program launches you should be able to control the fan. Keep in mind that if you lower the fan speed then it'll take upto 30 seconds before the S10 registers the change, so be patient.
I've only tested this on the latest BIOS 59. I am sure it will work on the 57 as well but the individual speeds might not work properly on that version. Please try it out and report back.
The only issue that I heard so far is that occasionally the fan will kick in regardless if in Manual/Smart Mode. Also the temp it shows may not be accurate. If you find any other issues please let me know what they are so I can attempt to fix them.
Once we have all the kinks worked out then I will release the source.
Heres a quick Video: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_PKl70ZgmFg
REMEMBER: USE PROGRAM AT YOUR OWN RISK!!! I AM NOT RESPONSIBLE FOR ANY DAMAGES THIS PROGRAM MIGHT CAUSE.
Application Use:
BIOS Controlled - Fan is controlled by the BIOS
Smart Mode - Fan is controlled based on the conifguration in the options. You can set the threshold here at what temp you want the fan to kick in...
Manual - Fan is controlled manually by the slider.
If you want to have the program startup automatically, then place a shortcut of the app in the PROGRAM FILES -> STARTUP folder. Then you may want to go to the options and make the application minimize at startup.
Edit:
It seems there are some issues with the app and the S10e or previous BIOS versions. Will post a fix asap.
The source code for S10FanControl is available here: http://www.mediafire.com/?sharekey=7a3fb99d33817c08c2b435915e8821d7e04e75f6e8ebb871, written in Visual Basic .NET 2008.
S10Fan - Windows
The second utility is a tool written by user slash:
Hi guys,
Well it looks like Lenovo dropped this matter after all. Anyway, I have here another fan controller to add to the bunch. I have been using it for some time now without any problems. It is for both S10 and S10e.
What the program does is basically the same as others. The S10's fan speed is controlled according to the ACPI thermal zone temperature. By over writing the values which resides at offset 50h of the EC register at an appropriate timing, the ACPI thermal zone temperature is over ridden. The program is written in C and uses WinIo created by Sysinternals. The GUI version is available now.
It should be noted that the fan speed temperature thresholds differs with BIOS version. For 14CN67WW and 14CW90WW the fan changes speed at temperatures 60c, 65c, 70c, and 80c. Furthermore, the BIOS will automatically shutdown the S10 if the temperature reaches 90c.
The program has a fail safe mechanism that automatically disables itself if the actual ACPI thermal zone temperature goes above 85c. This allows the BIOS to regain control and the fan will work as intended by Lenovo. If the temperature drops below 85c the program will take over control again.
To run the program, you will need administrative privileges.
Known working BIOS versions: 14cn58ww, 14cn60ww, 14cn67ww, 14cn90ww
The program will work with any BIOS version as long as the BIOS uses the 50h EC register readouts to control the fan.
build 2009.05.24
Higher priorities for EC commands.
Usage: The program will run in the system tray. Double click or right click and use the menu to open the program. To determine the BIOS temperature thresholds, use the 'Setup' button. To run at boot time, place a short cut in the startup folder.

Notebook Hardware Control - Windows
The third utility is a profile for Notebook Hardware Control. I've adapted it from a profile for the Lenovo N500 which I've found here: http://nhc.yourcopy.de/overview/. With the manual for creating the profiles that can be found here: http://www.notebook-treff.de/board/database/hilfsprogramme-f%C3%BCr-nhc/92-how-to-create-an-acpi-fil... I was able to change the ACPI commands to work on the S10(e).
Installation and setup is divided in two steps. The program Notebook Hardware Control (NHC) is available at http://www.pbus-167.com/. Install the program, but do not start it for now. Then you need my NHCConfig utility, available here: http://forum.eeepcnews.de/download/file.php?id=1476. It detects your model number and BIOS-version via WMI and writes a proper S10(e) profile to the NHC acpi directory. The GUI is German if you have a German Windows and English if not. Additional languages can be added.
After you've extracted the ZIP-file you have to start the nhcc.exe (requires .NET Framework 2.0). At first a message appears that you use the program at your own risk. Then you can choose if you want to apply your own settings (experts) or if you just want the program to run with my defaults (newbies). In the settings window you can see your system details on the left, you can set up your thresholds in the middle and you can set the fan speed you want on the right. Then click on execute.
Now start NHC. Go to the "Settings" tab and click on "Show all NHC options and settings". Then a few more tabs appear. Go to the "ACPI" tab and check if the "ACPI Control System" is running (if everything works, the message "ACPI Control System running" will appear, otherwise it says "ACPI control system is not yet configured for this system"). Now click on "Show ACPI Control System details".
Here you can change the temperature values the fan control depends on (the settings from NHCC are the default values). On the bottom of the window you can see the "Current CPU temperature". That is the value you have to deal with. In general it has a value of around 60°C. In the middle you can see four user editable temperature values. You can leave the values as they are if everything works. The on/off values are responsible for the temperatures at which the fan starts running and stops again after cooling the device. The level values are responsible for the fan speed, for example you can set the off_level higher to let the fan run all the time at the lowest level, if the values do not fit for your device or whatever.
You can switch between NHC and BIOS control by disabling or enabling the "ACPI Control System" or by closing NHC.
Q:
A:
With every utility it is possible that it takes some time until you see an effect after you've started the program. Any failure of the programs should be no big problem because the only thing that should happen is that the BIOS controls the fan. Another issue that might occur due to the way the fan is controlled is that the fan may start running for a very short time and it looks like the fan control has lost control. The fan should stop immediately or at least after a few seconds.
Keep in mind that running the S10(e) with a fan control means that the S10(e) has to deal with higher temperatures. That could mean that the device will not last for 10 years but only 9 years (who uses a netbook so long...?). In every case you need a tool for monitoring your cpu temperature. We know that especially Core Temp 0.99.5 and Real Temp 3.00 do a very good job. That is important because the temperature values you need to set up the fan control are different from the values reported by the cpu sensor, they are between 15°C and 20°C higher. A normal temperature reported by the monitoring should be around 40°C, with the NHC default values the fan starts running at 52°C and stops at 38°C.

END using fan control
BEGINNING developing fan control
Controlling the S10(e)'s fan is a litte bit difficult because it looks like there is no way to control it directly. But it is possible to manipulate the temperature the BIOS fan control depends on. As long as the built-in fan control thinks that the cpu is cool enough the fan stays off. And that is exactly the point where we can attack.
The fan control depends on a field called RTMP in the memory of the embedded controller. It can be accessed via "_SB.PCI0.LPCB.EC0.ERAM", the offset of RTMP is 0x50 (hex) or 80 (dec). It is a direct I/O read/write. The complete NHC command for reading the value is: ACPI.FIELD.ReadByOffset("_SB.PCI0.LPCB.EC0.ERAM", ref value, 0x50, 8) with "value" as the variable which gets the value.
What program logic do you need? You need a timer or something else that conducts an always-refresh cycle. It sounds very easy: You read the value, manipulate it and write it back. And it is that easy, you just have to keep some things in mind.
This refresh has to be done very often. The procedure must be very thin and quick. Also the bus that is used to communicate with the EC is a problem, but since the S10e BIOS 66 it became a minor problem for me because it looks like the built-in fan control now depends on some kind of average value over the last few seconds and it doesn't really matter if one write-cycle is failing.
The read-event must be placed before the write-event. Otherwise you just read your manipulated value. The field is filled by the system regularly, so you just have to test if the read_value is different from the written_value, then you know that the field was filled with a "fresh" value. Like "if read_temperatue <> written_temperature then real_cpu_temperature = read_temperature else do nothing".
About the values you have to write back... you will have to test and play a bit. My experience is that you can select three fan levels, starting at 59°, 62° and 70° - at least with the NHC profile and my S10e it's like that. It's some trial 'n' error. My fan stays off at < 59°, but you should select a very low value for fan_off like 30°. In my opinion it switches off much faster the lower the written value is. But it's just a feeling, I haven't measured it.

Great opening post Carsten!
The latest bios:
http://www-307.ibm.com/pc/support/site.wss/document.do?sitestyle=lenovo&lndocid=MIGR-71252 (BIOS 66)
The FSB can be reduced from 133MHz to 100MHz using SetFSB, this also reduces the heat:
http://www13.plala.or.jp/setfsb/
clockgen = SLG8SP513V
If you add a shortcut to the startup folder the program will start at startup. Under properties you can change the target to:
"C:\Program Files\SetFSB\setfsb.exe" -s100 -b1 -cg[SLG8SP513V] -w20
So it starts with a FSB of 100Mhz, in the background, with the right clock generator, after 20 seconds.

Fan Noise MB mid 2007

Hi!. 3 months ago I´d change my old MB (late november 06) and bought a new one (mid 2007), but from the begining the fan keeps always over 5700 rpm (just now is at 5500 rpm, 65 Celsius degrees and only safari and iCal is open). My old MB never reached those values and the rpm just climb over 6000 rpm with many app in use. What´s wrong with it? Can I fix it?
Thanx

Temperature and fan Probook 6570b on battery power.

Hi
I'm new to this forum, so please excuse me if I'm not complete with my first post.
Last week monday I bought a HP Probook 6570b at my college PXL (Belgium, Limburg, Hasselt), but it was running under Windows 8 Pro 64bit. I didn't like this OS so I went and bought a Windows 7 Professional 64bit on friday. So I've used Windows 8 for about a week, and since saturday I'm running Windows 7. Now I've noticed the temperature is reaching up to 60°C when I'm only working on Word, Outlook or Firefox for example..
A friend of mine in class has een HP Envy, bought after I got my HP Probook last week, so new as well (15", i7, Windows 8 64bit, 16GB RAM, 2GB Nvidia GPU,...) and his laptop is only reaching around 40°C-48°C, running the same programs.
Now I'm wondering if it's normal that my Probook is getting much warmer?
Things I noticed:
-Could it be that running Windows 8 is less power consuming than Windows 7? (and thereby askes less of the CPU and produces less heat because of that)
-I found that while running Windows 8 in the beginning the fan didn't run that much and so often as now on Windows 7 (I had the same kind of programs running and installed on the laptop), but that could also be my imagination. I didn't look at temperatures while Windows 8 was on it.
Things I did while swapping OS':
-Formatted the SSD completely, installed Windows 7, installed all the drivers for my model from the HP site.
-I also did a BIOS update, could it be because of this? (maybe the temp the fan has to start running changed in the new BIOS?)
Things in my mind to solve this if you can't help me:
-Tried to find some info on undervolting the CPU, but from the readings and sites I visited I'm guessing the modern CPU's do that themselves, and it isn't possible..
-Place some extra little heatsinks on the cupper rail for some extra cooling. Or is this a bad idea?
-Replace the standard cooling paste with some new cooling paste with a """"high performance"""" (as they call it) brand, maybe that could cut some degrees..
So the main point is that the temperature is getting pretty high in my opinion, and that the frequenty the fan starts has shortened (when I just got it, almost never turned on....... now with Windows 7 much frequentlier). So if anybody experienced this as well, and/or has a solution, please tell me!
Thank you!

I have an Itouch and was very pleased with it. No problems with it. I recently updated it, but it will not let me update to version 7. Now I can no longer get access to the podcast apps. This was the primary reason I purchased my I touch to begin with. Now what? Don't tell me I have put purchase a new Itouch just to be able to continue to listen to podcasts. Are you kidding me?

I suspect you have a 4G iPod. As Apple said in June, iOS 7 is not compatible with the 4G iPod.
All the iOS devices compatible (iPhone 4 and later, iPad 2 and later, and 5G iPod touch) with iOS 7 have at least 512 MB of memory (RAM). The 4G iPod only has 256 MB
To get the version copatible with the 4G:
App Store: Install the latest compatible version of an app
You first have to download the non-compatible version on your computer. Then when you try to purchase the version on your iPod you will be offered a compatible version if one exists.

How to insert a black space at the beginning of a timeline

Hi guys,
Sorry for the stupid question....I only bought FCPX yesterday.
I have figured out how to drop an audio file into the timeline and add some title effects to the beginning. But now i want to add a black space at the beginning.
Is there an easy way to do this that I have simply missed - I have spent several hours trying to find a way to do it...
Thanks in advance for your help
Best regards,

Thanks everyone for the help - really appreciate it !!
I didn't know that there could only be one "correct" answer - so sorry to Tom if I have done this incorrectly. I was too excited that both answers worked for me that I didn't really concentrate hard enough on whose idea it was - I thought I could mark them both as correct.
Next time I will take more time for a considred response.
Thanks again everyone - you really helped me out.

DVD doesn't play from the beginning when inserted a second time into a dvd player

DVD burnt in DVD studio pro, when ejected and inserted again into dvd player, the dvd plays from where it stopped the last tome it was ejected. It doesn't rewind and play from the beginning.
Is the problem in the burning settings in DVD studio pro? any help is really appreciated!

My DVD Player setting was Last option played, I changed it now to "beginning". It now starts from the beginning when I insert it again, thanks.
Another issue is that my First play in the DVD is a Track, then comes a Menu. When I leave to the Menu while the Track didnt finish, and then click the dvdmenu on my remote control, the Track resumes from where I exited to the menu last.
Is that something i can control ? To make that intro track start from the beginning?
Thank you, I appreciate the help!

Sorry for the lengthy title, I wasn't clear what I was doing.
Anyway I have two Macs. iMac from 2008 and 2011 MacbookAir. Airdrop I thought really poor when it appeared and no competiiton for DropCopy. My iMac, I'm pretty sure ran Airdrop to begin with but now at just over 3 years old is effectively obselete. Then to add insult to injury DropCopy is OK on the MBA but crashes repeatedly on the iMac.
So, I removed the Dropcopy and went to the App Store to reinstall it but it showed as "installed". That's it. What's Windows 8 like?

You have not mentioned what systems you are running on the two Macs, if they are on a network etc. That info would help a fair bit.

Post-update 1.03: Clock has gone. Halts at the beginning of playback.

Advancements made. Sound dropouts (at the beginnings of tunes) have nearly gone, I have experienced just a few. In the beginning of a movie there's about 1-2 secs halt til it begins again.
Now thou the "screensaver" clock has gone. The display is now totally black when the nano is locked and asleep.
So 2 steps ahead and 1 back here.

Alarms still don't work either.

Z61t upgrading processor

Gentleman,
I'm currently the owner of a z61t, actually my second. I recently purchased a refurbished one from a lease company for $250 bucks.
I"m a victim of the processor temp issue. 90C and then shut off.
I was thinking of upgrading my processor. I currently have a T2400
Any idea of what my options are? Any recommendations?
I appreciate your input,
Tom

Well, upgrading the CPU will only make your machine run hotter to begin with.
Now, you may want to start with cleaning the fan, or replacing it altogether. That should bring the temperatures down significantly.
If the machine still runs hot after cleaning/replacing the fan you may also consider installing TPFC:

Mountain Lion Finder "unresponsive" (Beach balls) when trying to copy large amount of files

Before Mountain Lion, using Lion - transfering 999 files from my compact flash card to my SSD hard drive via a FW800 reader was SO easy. Select all, drag and drop and the transfer would begin immediately.
Now, after upgrading to Mountain Lion, I experience at least 60 seconds of beach balls and an "unresponsive" finder. Sometimes it starts to transfer, sometimes I have to relaunch finder.
I've reset the PRAM (although I didn't hear 4 beeps), the SMC, I did verify and repair disk permissions.
Any thoughts on this?
Thank you,
(Late 2011 15 in MBP)

iomega, lacie, 500GB, 1TB, etc, seems to be drive independent. I've formatted and started over with several of the drives and same thing. If I copy the files over in smaller chunks (say, 70GB) as opposed to 600GB, the problem does not happen. It's like finder is holding on to some of the info when it puts it's "ghost" on the destination drive before it's copied over and keeping the file locked when it tries to write over it.
This may be a stretch since I have no experience with iomega and no recent experience with LaCie drives, but the different results if transfers are large or small may be a tip-off.
I ran into something similar with Seagate GoFlex drives and the problem was heat. Virtually none of these drives are ventilated properly (i.e, no fans and not much, if any, air flow) and with extended use, they get really hot and start to generate errors. Seagate's solution is to shut the drive down when not actually in use, which doesn't always play nice with Macs. Your drives may use a different technique for temperature control, or maybe none at all. Relatively small data transfers will allow the drives to recover; very large transfers won't, and to make things worse, as the drive heats up, the transfer rate will often slow down because of the errors. That can be seen if you leave Activity Monitor open and watch the transfer rate over time (a method which Seagate tech support said was worthless because Activity Monitor was unreliable and GoFlex drives had no heat problem).
If that's what's wrong, there really isn't any solution except using the smaller chunks of data which you've found works.

G5 after 6 years running won't start up

I noticed over the weekend my G5's fan increasing in speed while it was on a screensaver. It freezed up and I shut down my computer. Started up my G5 again, and logged into Leopard with no problems, but for some reason the mouse wasn't working. It was definitely receiving power, and I switched USB ports. Still didn't work after that so I did a hard shut down. It was on a slow degrade from that point on, next crashing on the load screen, and now it doesn't even show video. Instead it just flashes its power button, and the fan increases.
I tried unplugging and re-plugging in the power source, and that had no effect. Made sure that all cables were attached firmly. I've already ordered a new SATA seagate HDD, because my guess is its the boot drive. However, I would appreciate any other ideas as to what caused this?

Hi,
Sorry to hear the problem, there are quite a few early G5's on this Forum with similar issues, mine included. If you push the power button, the power light begins, a fan starts and then it shuts down, it was a bad logic board in my case. You're gonna need expert advice and a diagnostic test, somewhere like this facility, or one near your location.
A repair of this nature requires finding the part, computer repair knowledge and special Apple software for re-calibration of the fans. Not a difficult job, just specialized. I repaired mine, still cheaper than a new tower Mac Pro.
Best of luck,
Dave

Adding Events Without a Specific Time

Sometimes I want to add an event to a calendar that has no specific time and is not an "all day event." I can't seem to figure out how to do it.

Having worked for years (decades?) with Palm on a Sony Clio I wonder why iCal is not simply allowing to time (or not) entries without having a names "event" and all that nonsense. The items without time simply display at the top. The ToDo list would be a way out but that is not an option on my iPod touch.
Just a beginning Mac fan and wondering if there is an answer?

IT BEEN A MONTH WITHOUT PS CC AND CANNOT GET TECH SUPPORTHELP

I have been using PS since the beginning. I now have joined the masses and subscribe to PS CC. It does not bother me to pay a monthly fee. What does bother me is Adobe Tech support SUCKS.
I was in India the first 2 weeks in Nov and took 4,980 pic. I have been post processing them since I came home. I use plug-ins Nik and Topaz. On Dec. 1 my computer went to the “blue screen”. When I rebooted in the safe mode, all my programs came back ok and things seemed to work. However all versions of my PS ( I have CS5, CS6 and CC) would load and then I would get a windows message “that PS had stopped working and was closing”. So I started the calls to Adobe and finally on Dec 3, I worked with a tech, of course in India, for 2 hours, He took me through soooooooo many things. The bottom line was, he was not able to get PS CS 6 back into the Creative Cloud Desktop App. He COULD NOT get the CC app to load. He said he would escalate the problem and someone would call within 2-4 days. To date Dec, 18 no one has called, I have however called THREE MORE times. Yesterday, I asked to speak to an Adobe team supervisor and again promised someone would call me…AND THEY DID NOT.
In the meantime, I think I found the reason why my computer crashed…it was the Nik plug-in. The tech on Dec 3 had done an Adobe cleaner and all my Preset & plugin I had to put back. When I loaded Nik and used Color Efex I got the error message as above. So I uninstalled it and got in touch with Nik. They had me upgrade my video card and several other things to no avail.
So I called on Dec, got a Supervison who PROMISED ME on his mothers grave that I would get a callback in 15 min.! NEVER DID
Today, all I want is my PS CC back… finish my post processing of my India photos and then I will tackle the possibility of a computer problem and reformatting my hard drive…I work for a computer company so it can be done.

Hello
I had exactly this problem. In the end i used the online service and they fixed it for me. It was something to do with how the data was set up on my computer and they remotely accessed my computer fixing the issue for me. It was all very complex and they were very good at sorting it, highly recommended.
Took them about half hour in total

Voice Memos is not working properly

This App's been behaving strange...
That "bar" where we supposed to drag foward and rewind in the recorded memo isnt working anymore. So when I want to rewind I cant, I need to stop, and start all over again from the beginning.
And now, It just doesnt record anything!
It shows that it is recording but when I stop to listen, nothing hasnt recorded.
I restarted the phone but it didnt change anything
Does anyone experienced this same problems?

same here ... iPhone 3gs/32 gigs ram/ios 4.3.1 ...
the app doesn't seem to work any more, and hasn't for some time:
"buttons" are unresponsive, or they appear to respond, but don't perform their function ... erratic behavior ...
very disappointing as this has gone on for some time ...
We appear not to be the only ones ...
Anyone with a solution?
Thanks

Beginning : no fans .. now : fans on
