Does your MacPro make a lot of noise?

Hello, everyone , I got my MacPro 13 inch 3 weeeks ago, and now i have found the fun runs with very very anoying noise. But at first everything was just Ok.
I don't know if this is a "problem" but the fan noise is even louder than my Samsung Laptop brought 4 years ago......
From taking it home ,i have installed Iwork, Skype(when it running ,totally desaster, the temp will go up to 90 degrees...), Office for mac(seldom used) and other small apps. is there any thing wrong?
Without running any big program, just open the Safari, the temp is 50 degrees and the fun speed is NEVER less than 2000rpm, that's why it is really noisy?
i have no idea about this, can someone give me some pointers and i really don't want to send it to service center ........
Thanks very muchchchchc~

When you use Skype, it will make your mac very hot and the fan will spin very fast, making noise.
Without running any big program, just open the Safari, the temp is 50 degrees and the fun speed is NEVER less than 2000rpm, that's why it is really noisy?
It shouln't be noisy at 2000 rpm. I can't hear my fan when it's at 2000 rpm. Are you sure what you are hearing are the fan?

Does your MBP make the same noise too?

Hey guys when you insert a CD or DVD into your MBP does your computer make a slight buzzing noise. I was just wondering to see if this was common or a problem. Thanks

If I understand you correctly these noises are quite normal.

My printer HP Officejet pro 8600 plus makes a lot of noise while printing

My HP officejet pro 8600 plus, makes a lot of noise while printing, ink levels are ok, and printing is ok. it was makiing lines before but not anymore

Hi,
Check first if the printer is connected directly to a wall outlet.
Check if the carriage is moving freely and there is no obstructions inside the unit.
Clean the paper rollers once.
See if doing these helps you

USB Soundsticks makes a lot of noise during start+up

I have the old USB connected soundsticks with my mac pro quad 2.88ghz and during startup they make a lot of noise. I have tried switching between the ports on the back, havn't tried connection it on the front yet.
anyone encountered this?

Hi thanks for your response
The password I refer to is the laptop password. windows 7 is the origional windows operating version that was preinstalled on the laptop
Once you input the laptop pass word it shows the starting windows screen this is when the bleeping noise starts.

My Mac book makes a lot of noise!!!

Hello,
My Mac book is 3 months old and since 3 days the ventilation is running non stop
But I notice that it depends where we are...??
Thank you for your help,
Aurelia.

Hello,
Actually, my Mac makes a lot of noise just when I watch this web site :http://football.direct8.fr/live.php. And if I close this page the ventilation remains... I think that it is link to this web site or probably to internet in general, because if just I work with the other software I have no problem... And it is strange because it started just 3 days ago...
Thanks so much for your help,
Aurelia.

My 7515 makes a lot of noise, like gears grinding when printing and resetting itself.

Macbook pro makes a lot of noise when its is on.

Macbook Pro makes a lot of noise when its being used. It is the sound of the processor and it gets very hot at the bottom of the laptop. Any sugestions for why this is happening? Any solutions??

Hi p,
The CPU doesn't make noise, so it's probably fans you're hearing, which would correspond with the heat you're feeling. Read this link to see if there's a process running too high:

Does your Macbook make Random Popping Sounds?

Hi all, does your Macbook make random popping sounds, on startup and periodically when your using your MB. I have this issue with two macbooks and i can't seem to find many other people who have this problem. I'm unsure whether it's the audio popping issue mentioned in other threads because this happens when no external speakers are plugged in. It's just pops away on it's own and it's driving me mad, i can't even pin it down to a specific task because it;s so random.
Both of my Macbook are operating under 10.4.11.
Arrrrrrrrggggggggggghhhhhhhhhhhhh

Actually now that you've mentioned it, mine sometimes randomly makes the popping sounds, more to the likes of 'clipping' of speakers. But the odd thing is, mine only pops when connect my speakers (it's a Cambridge Soundworks 4.1 setup which i purchased over 6 years ago) - and the speakers have been fine all these while? I am positive that it's not my speakers because just recently (2-3 days ago) my brother brought his HP laptop and used my speakers and i did not hear anything even after he left his inferior (haha kidding) laptop on my desk to have a smoke without any music/sound coming out of the speakers.
To be more precise. my popping sound occurs specifically (as I haven't tried others) as I pause my music on iTunes. It does annoy the h*ll out of me and I really assumed that it was my speakers.
At least I'm not alone now. My Macbook specs are listed below.

Macbook fan makes a lot of noise, in particular on safari with flash

Hi,
Whenever I turn on Safari, my macbook starts to make a lot of noise, in particular on sites with flash. I guess this is not normal. I have the latest flash installed and my mac software is up to date. I have a mac with 2G memory attached to a 23" cinema-display. Any suggestions?

Have same problem with mac mini g4. sample site is http://www.wakfu.com/ stay a bit longer and fan noise starts up.
Also, playing flash game makes the fan starts spinning (this never happened some time ago, 2 years and a couple of months before)

Why does my Mac air make a lot of noise with the fan inside?

I bought Mac air one year ago. at the beginning, I satisfied with the product. However, 8 months later, the laptop made a lot of noise from the fan inside. When I I run about 4 or 5 solfwares, it starts warmer and make noise. I feel so unhappy with this. How can I fix it. I bought AppleCare programme for 3 years as well
Thanks

The mid 2011 MacBook Air fans are pretty quiet but not silent and since they are the only mechanical decice you'll hear - there's no hard drive or DVD drive to make noise - it is possible that what you hear is normal. On the other hand, fans can go bad - bearings fail and dust an make the blades become unbalanced. None of us can help - you'll need to take the computer to a repair center or Apple Store and let an Apple repair person determine if the fans need replacing or not. If so, your warranty will cover the cost.

Hello Akram
I am sorry to hear you have this problem with your notebook. to be honest it will be interesting to know which notebook model do you have exactly.
I use Toshiba notebooks since year 2000 and I have pretty good experience with them. My first one was old Satellite 3000 later Satellite P20, M70 and now I have two of them Satellite P200 and brand new Satellite A300. None of them was loud.
Just on big Satellite P20 I noticed the same after 2 years of usage but after cleaning everything was OK again. For my work I use Satellite P200 and it is really quiet.
So I am really surprised you got this statement from technicians.
I recommend you to contact some other service and to talk with them. If you have noticed such noise it can be also defective cooling vent. It can happen that small ball-bearing inside is defective and when vent is rotating it makes strange noise. Friend of mine has had this problem on old Tecra M1.
Other way the strange noise can be also because of defective HDD. I had this problem on my old Satellite M70. HDD was defective and when I have started several applications I have heard squeaking sound. After HDD replacement everything was OK.
It is really not easy to say what the problem can be so the best thing you can do is to find serious service provider and ask for help.
Good luck my friend and let us know what you have done with your notebook.

Re: My laptop makes a lot of noise

Hi, my name is Akram, I am from united states of America.
I have got this Toshiba laptop last year I have all the details its purchased in UK and sold in Saudi Arabia.
Recently from a month my laptop is making a lot of noise may be the fan or processor.
I am a doctor student, I dont really know about it.
The noise is so annoying that I dont carry the laptop to library or to college. Everyone in my class knows once I start using my laptop if I take it, irritated by all the comments made by my friends. I took the laptop for repair, I somehow browsed ur site and got ur Toshiba repair depot.
As I was in warranty till last week, I went to DATA VISION computer services, 39th street, New York City, but to add to my problem the people there said it just cleaned it and said its done. But the problem is the same.
I had to go again then he says all the Toshiba laptops make such noises. Isn't it annoying to know this?
If its true that all Toshiba laptops make such noises I beg you literally.
Please do not manufacture any more laptops, its really irritating to know, and the fellows just trying to convince me,
Nothing is managed at best by Toshiba. I am so unhappy and worring why did I buy this.
There is no management what so ever.
Thanks I hope someone will ever correct the problem, you can contact me on my mail id "[email protected] or [email protected]

Its a brand new mac and it makes a lot of noise...is that normal?

I have the I5 - 2012 model and its just been a few weeks and I hear a lot of noise running in the background. Please advise

The only noise you should be hearing is the fan. Which to be honest can be quite loud when it's working hard. If you want to see how fast your fan is working check out this application it's free.
