Can the fan break from running too long?

Yesterday I had a high-energy application running on my 13'' MacBook Pro Retina for a good five hours straight. I've used this application a couple times, but never for this long; the fan always runs with this application. Needless to say, the fan was running pretty loud for a while and the MacBook got pretty hot. Today, I launched the same application and the fan is noticeably a lot quieter. Also, the application seems to run a bit slower with some hiccups, wheras before it had run seamlessly. Is it possible I somehow damaged the fan by running the application too long?

It's possible for a fan to burnout. Apple store can replace, not too epensive, you may be able to find online if you do not have isues pulling the MBP apart. How to vids online as well.
You can download iStat to check fan speeds, temps, etc...

    Hi Venga,
    maybe the note 1115597 could help as well. Depending on your release there are BBP_GET_STATUS_2 notes also notes for the backend system:
    Backend 4.6C: 1123548                      
    Backend 4.70: 1123548                      
    Backend 5.00: 1123548                      
    Backend ECC 2005 ( SAP_APPL 600): 1123548  
    If they don't help, the issue should be analysed by performance trace.
    Kind regards,

    The current OCDM version does not support BIEE 11g, so you need to install BIEE 10g. In next release(will be available soon), OCDM will support BIEE 11g.

  • What is the best practice for running a long report/query against an active database?

    We are using SQL Server 2012 EE but currently do not have the option to run queries on a R/O mirror though that is my long term goal. I am concerned I may still run into the below issue in that scenario as well since the mirror would also be updating data I
    am querying.
    I have a view that joins across several tables from two databases and is used by an invoicing program on existing data. Three of these tables are also actively updated by ongoing transactions. Running a report that used this view did not use to be a problem
    but now our database is getting larger and we have run into some timeout problems for the live transactions coming in.
    First the report query was timing out so I set command timeout to 0 and reran the query which pegged all 4 CPUs 100% for 90 minutes and so I finally killed it. Strangely there were no problems with active transactions during that time so I'm wondering if the
    query was really running doing anything useful or somehow spinning and waiting. I reviewed the view and found a field I was joining on that was not indexed so created an index on that field, reran the report, which then finished in three minutes and all the
    CPUs were busy but not at all pegged out. Same data queried both times. I figured problem solved. Of course later, my boss ran a similar invoice report, with the same amount of data, and our live transactions started timing out 100% while his query was running.
    I did not get a chance to see the CPU usage during that time.
    I looked at the execution plan of the underlying view and added the suggested index but that did not help. When I run the just the view at SQL Server it does not seem to cause any problems and finished in a couple seconds. Perhaps something else going on in
    the reporting tool using the view.
    My main question is - Given I have to use the live and active database, what is the proper way to run a long R/O query/report so that active transactions can still continue to update
    tables that I am querying? sp_who2 did show transactions being blocked so I guess a long query accessing the tables blocks live transactions accessing those same tables, but certainly I'm not the only one doing this. I
    am considering adding "with (nolock)" but am hoping there is a better standard practice as that clause can return dirty data and I understand why. Thx, Dave
    Thanks, Dave

    Hello
    You can change the DB isolation level to Read uncommitted
    http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms378149(v=sql.110).aspx
    or use WITH (NOLOCK)
    I do use NOLOCK option for the dirty reads to avoid locks on the tables

  • Is it free to take my macbook air to an apple store to get a check because the fan is always running?

    is it free to take my macbook air to an apple store to get a check because the fan is always running?

    Yes, the diagnosis at the apple store is free, ....have them find out what is wrong for you
    However its totally normal for the fan to be always on, on your macbook Air.
    SMC (System Management Controller) could be causing the fan to misinterpret temp.  an SMC reset would likely fix this.
    If you can HEAR the fan all the time, it might be running noisy due to dust/junk in the fan blades and hub.
    If you have pets or a dusty room, fans trap dust and pet fluff like a magnet.  Might just need a cleaning.

    hi there, i bought my macbook 1 week ago and its working fine. BUT the fan is always running and it is very annoying? what should i do

    Take it back to the store where you bought it for a hardware check and/or exchange/refund.
    If they say "that's normal" then get your money back.
    Nothing worst than a annoying fan you can't do anything about.
    I has a eMac that did that, sounded like a vacuum cleaner running all the time, I'm so glad I trashed it and will never buy a machine I can hear running in a near silent library.
    Some advice, the higher end models with a dedicated graphics do tend to operate cooler, it's the one's with only CPU graphics (Intel) regardless if a Mac or PC that tend to make a lot of noise.
    Graphics should have never been put on the CPU, it just doubles the heat and doubles the fan noise.

  • Crawl Log Error: "The filename or extension is too long."

    Hello All,
    I get this error for some files on my SharePoint 2010 error log. The fix suggested
    here does not work as its for earlier versions of sharepoint 2010. I have verified the files in question have a title lenght of 120 characters and Name(Link) with character lenght of 71.
    Whats weird is sharepoint indexes some similarly named files but exempts the other. These files are basically the same just named different as they belong to different users.
    Any help?

    It could be because of this also:
    Assume that a custom list in a Microsoft SharePoint Foundation 2010 site or in a Microsoft SharePoint Server 2010 site contains a multiline text column. If the data size of the custom column is more than 100 kilobytes (KB), only the first 100 KB of the data
