Extremely Loud Fan Noise Brand new mac pro 12 core 2.93

The fans of my brand new mac pro start making a sound like a wind tunnel several times a day, and won't stop till I shut off the mac.
Fan stats are like this when it makes that sound:
PCI  799rpm
BOOSTA  5048rpm
BOOSTB  5188rpm
Exhaust  2709rpm
Power sup.. 599rpm
INTAKE 2697rpm
Anybody any idea what could be wrong?

Hi, I had the same problems. I had to have replaced the fan that was broken.

  • Take 45s to boot a brand new Mac Pro

    Hi Mac Pro folks
    I just got a brand new Mac Pro running Mountain Lion. It came with a 512MB SSD as the boot disk and a 2TB disk as the second drive. What I got confused is: after powering it on, the Mac Pro takes average 45s to boot to the white screen with an Apple logo.
    This is actually the second Mac Pro, the previous one having the same configuration took 30 seconds to boot. As the previous one's second drive got clicking sound from the first day, Apple replaced the whole machine. Now the clicking sound has gone, but the second Mac Pro takes an even longer time to boot from SSD.
    Is it normal? Has anyone ever experienced the same thing?
    Thanks for any comments.
    Regards,

    It should be Apple genuine SSD, as the 512 MB SSD comes with the new Mac Pro. Please see below its information retreived from System Report. TRIM Support is enabled.

    This is a Mac Pro 5,1 so I would expect it should take less than 10 seconds to boot.
    Moreover, the SSD is the only startup device under Startup Disk.

    No it should take 10 seconds. That is what my SSD on Mac Pro 1,1.
    PCIe cards can affect booting, especially if you boot from one.
    3rd party SSD or not? \
    firmware is current?
    SSD is set to default startup disk control panel?
    You've done ML Recovery and checked the SSD twice: the top of the drive to check partitions, the user volume to check the system directory.
    If it is 3rd party what make?
    Does it show TRIM is enabled in SATA entry in System Profile?
    What else is installed.
    Does not sound normal to me to replace anything except the hard drive for clicking, and then to just zero the drive.
    I would never pay for disk drive from Apple when there are better prices and as good devices.

  • I have a brand new Mac Pro Tower that continually kicks me off the internet and sometimes starts up not connecting to the internet?

    My brand new Mac Pro Tower that I spent a small fortune on sometimes boots up and does not connect to the internet when every other computer in my office does and other times it just kicks me straight off. My question is, is there a problem with the wi fi on these machines?

    Brand new nMP Mac Pro 6,1 Late 2013.... and it is defective - the older silver tower might be easier to find parts but at least it is not 65 lbs and is something that can be taken in - which I think you really need to do.
    When you run etrecheck from www.etresoft.com it can show what is installed, drivers and might help point to something on software side.
    Grant is the go-to person here I think among others for networking issues.
    Airport Express and signal strength, channel it is trying to use, whether the Network control panel settings are "correct" or need to be changed (even the order, what it is trying to look for and use).
    If you move it to another spot or put another computer over in that general vicinity...? behaves the same.
    I recall reading where the MacBook Pro model in 2012? and switched to a new chipset and some very long (huge) threads in their forum - which means also there was no real solution given.
    No, should not be. And other than network tests would be booting into Apple DiagnosticsTest mode - pulls down from Apple servers.

  • Premiere Pro CC crashing on brand new Mac Pro (late 2013)

    Such a big disappointment, yesterday our brand new Mac Pro (Late 2013) with OS X version 10.10.2 was installed and Premiere Pro CC is constantly crashing. One of the problems is that when I open a brand new project and before I add any content to a new sequence I just want to position the video track higher so I can see more audio tracks, the program crashed. I did it several times (new projects, new sequences) every time the same crashing program.
    Deinstalled Premiere Pro and reinstalled it again, but no luck.
    Tomorrow I created a whole new account with administrator rights on the Mac, the issue as described above was gone but at some point in time the program crashed again, and when I reopen the project, with two sequences open (one with footage and one empty) and I want to close the empty one, Premiere is crashing again. So I can't continue my work on this project and need to start over again....
    This is the error report that I'm getting....
    I hope somebody can help me on this because it's very frustrating...
    Thanks in advance

  • Brand new Mac Pro - Suddenly iOS devices won't charge

    So I've been using my brand new Mac Pro 8-core for about a week now and I've already had 1 force reboot (kernel panic, error 14 page fault) and earlier tonight, when I plugged in my iPhone 4S, its screen didn't turn on as usual after being plugged in... The "charging" icon didn't appear in the phone's menu bar, and neither Xcode nor iTunes recognize the phone as being plugged in. I'm running Snow Leopard with all the latest software updates.
    I've tried:
    plugging it into other USB ports
    using a different USB cable
    unplugging and plugging in quickly, repeatedly
    charging my iPod touch and my wife's old iPhone 3G - they won't charge either
    My "old" Mac Pro that this Mac Pro is replacing had a very similar issue... after leaving the computer on for a while and returning, usb devices wouldn't charge, apps would hang, and i'd have to cold reboot. This got progressively worse over time, and eventually "died" when the system crashed w/ a never-ending beachball and wouldn't boot back up. I'm starting to wonder if I should just return it and get an iMac or something since I have a hunch this is hardware related.
    Something also weird is that before I plugged my iPhone in, I was using Xcode and had my phone selected as a build target... even though it wasn't plugged it in. (Normally if it's not plugged in, the name will not appear in the list.) Nothing happened when I tried running my app obviously so I stopped the build, then plugged my phone in. That's when I noticed it wouldn't charge.
    THEN it gets even worse... while I was typing this, when trying different USB ports, in the process I unplugged my keyboard. After plugging my keyboard back in, it wouldn't work. Cold reboot.
    I'm really hesitant to lug this brand new Mac Pro back to the Apple store just to hear them say "The diagnostic test looks ok to me!" and have the issue crop up again a couple weeks later.
    Does anyone have any ideas on what could be causing this, or have you seen anything similar with your Mac Pro? Again, I just picked this Mac Pro up last weekend at an Apple store.
    Thanks!

  • Rendering slowed to a grinding halt CS6 on brand new mac pro...

    Unbelievably and excruciatingly painful slow rendering in AE CS6 on a brand new Mac Pro.
    My Pro:
    3.5 Ghz 6-core Intel Xeon E5
    32 GB 1867 MHz DDR3 ECC
    AMD FirePro D700 6144MB
    OSX 10.9.2
    1) Internal 500GB SSD - (using 90gb for AE media cache)
    External Thunderbolt drives:
    2) 2 TB WD Black Caviar - (hosting all project assets)
    3) 2 TB WD Black Caviar - (rendering destination)
    Running After Effects CS6
    The footage in my comp is just a bunch of illustrator files, and shape layers. There are 2 videos, but removing them does not improve the rendering. All the illustrator files are RGB. I am using effects on layers, but nothing out of the ordinary, a few displacement maps, some grain (non animated), some distort mesh (pre-rendering the distort mesh helped a little, but pretty sure there is something REALLY wrong here)
    When its rendering, and I look at Activity Monitor, 85% of the CPU is still idle! I'm using Rendering Multiple Frames... 6 Cores for AE - 4 for others. 3GB for AE.
    Of the 32gb RAM saving 4 for others applications.
    For 25 seconds of footage, the task bar says something like 6 hours to render... and then it doesn't even finish. Even pre-rendering the distort mesh in a 4 layer pre-comp, for 25 seconds, took 25 minutes.
    Someone please help, I'm not sure whats going on, but something is horribly wrong.

    Not new to AE. Was rendering with animation codec, and have also tried using pro res 4444 to see if it will help.
    comp size 1920 x 1080 @ 60fps
    Turned off RMFS - and while this helps with the RAM preview (also setting the RAM preview to skip 1)
    I was able to render using pro res 4444 @ 50% resolution @ 50% frame rate @ draft quality in 11 min (25 seconds) after pre-rendering 2 pre-comps.
    Which is much better, but really don't understand why it could be taking so long.
    I want to be able to RAM preview @ 60 fps - but every time RMFS is turned on it throws errors like "AE needs 2 or more playback frames" and I've also seen the error about it skipping frames and to allocate more memory to background processes. But no other programs running...
    And I made a mistake: 12 cores, 8 for AE and 4 for other apps is what I had RMFS set to.

  • Brand new Mac Pro slowing down

    I have a brand new mac-pro (8 core 2.8ghz,6gb 1x350/2x500gbhd)10.5.5.I have only put about 60gb on start up disk and 200gb on my HD 1.I already get the spinning ball when i open up some app's and to send a email (say 10 words nothing else)takes 10-15 secs to send,my broadband is up to 10mb.This is connected cable no wifi.I also have to quit force programs (they just freeze)and then it doesn;t quit force, can't do nothing.I HAXE ONLY USED THIS 4 TIMES.

    The hatter,
    Thank you for the history of the posts here.
    I might add, Dano, your experience is actually quite unusual. In fact your mileage can be much worse on a PC. Viruses can wipe out ALL your data in an instant on a PC, while not on a Mac. Mac users at worse if there is something unstable usually only lose data if there is some hardware or software issue. So backing up your data is a prerequisite for owning any kind of computer.
    Your experience with numerous spinning beachballs usually is indicative of faulty RAM, an overfull hard drive (which you obviously don't have), a directory issue* (which may happen if you don't know how to shut down your machine, or are using the wrong utilities to diagnose your machine), or some other hardware problem that can be sometimes diagnosed via the hardware test discs that came with your machine as indicated here:
    http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=303081
    That lack of an error does not mean your RAM is healthy, it merely means the error is undetectable.
    Secondly, if your version of Protools is too old, it will not run on a Mac Pro natively, so you have to make sure you are using the latest Protools. If your plugins are too old the same issue.
    Third, if your software won't download fully, it usually is an indication that either your network is not setup properly, or your network preferences in your Mac is not setup properly. Some have found that by increasing the MTU they can make the networking work more smoothly. Some have found that by using an Open DNS they have less issues, as described on http://www.opendns.org/
    So before you blame stuff on Apple lets get to the bottom of what's wrong with your machine.

  • BRAND NEW Mac Pro won't boot from Leopard DVD, kernel panics!

    I just received my brand new Mac Pro today. It's a BTO machine with the upgrade to the NVIDIA 8800GT, a second optical drive and a Mac OS X Server license. The system has Mac OS X server installed on the default 320GB drive. I decided to use the server license as a virtual machine running in Leopard client. So, I installed 2 new 500GB Seagate 7200.11 (Retail) drives in the machine, zeroed them out in prep for installing Leopard client.
    At this point, I pop in a freshly-purchased retail copy of the Leopard DVD and restart. When I try to boot from the DVD and install Leopard to one of the new Seagate drives, I get kernel panics - need to restart the machine. Also tried booting from the Mac OS X Server DVD and this too only caused kernel panics. The DVD's read perfectly from within Mac OS X Server and boot from hard disks is flawless.
    I spent an hour on the phone with a level 2 tech at Apple - Tried swapping out the RAM and moving around the DIMMS to no avail. I am at a loss to what this could be. Seems to be a hardware issue and the tech thought it was likely a problem with one of the memory risers but couldn't send replacements. Anyone else with a similar issue?
    This is my first Mac and it looks like this Mac Pro is going back for an exchange and I'll have to wait yet another 10-12 days for a replacement to arrive. Bummer.
    Am I missing something simple here? Does this seem to be a hardware issue?
    If anyone has any ideas before I ship this one back, please write!!!

    New Mac Pros will not install the Leopard retail disc. They will only install the Leopard disc which shipped with them labeled Mac Pro. That has always been true. Macs can only boot the system that ships on DVD in the box that came with them, and newer retail releases. They can never boot from an older retail release than what shipped in the box.

  • Brand new mac pro has blank screen on start up...why? Can here instructions but can't see

    I hae a brand new mac pro and the screen is blank during start up. ***...I can here instructions but can't see screen.

    That Mac comes with 90 days free phone support from trained Applecare reps. You should take advantage of it.
    Another alternative is to make an appointment at the Genius Bar and have them put their hands on it.
    Be sure you do something before your 14-day return/exchange (if you bought it direct from Apple) expires, or you may face a 3 to 5 day repair cycle.
    Shine a bright light at the screen when it has booted up.
    ¿ Is the picture "there" but not lit up?   that could be a backlight failure.
    The F2 key is used to turn up the brightness, if it accidentally got turned down low.

  • Brand New Mac Pro takes 1Min 20 to boot

    Hi people, just got this brand new Mac Pro, was a dream to get, however first one i received i had to send back as it had a faulty hard drive bay which didnt read the disks. I then received this replacement and this second machine had to have the airport card replaced as it was faulty. I also notice that it takes 1min 20seconds to boot to login screen. It is a brand new 3.0 8 Core with 10GB Ram. My macbook pro boots in less than 20 seconds. Is this normal of the Mac Pro?

    Sorry, I didn't make myself clear.
    First of all, I agree with everything in your post. I just wanted to know why you said "The amount of RAM has nothing to do with how slow or fast the system boots." You see, I have the same problem on my iMac, it occurred right after I installed extra memory. The boot time almost doubled. The mac was a few days old so I assumed it was because of the RAM. But if you are right, my assumption was wrong and I have to look to other options. But I was just wondering, how do you know? That's why I asked you to explain your answer.
    Second, the PS was back on topic and not in reply for your answer. For example, a few months ago, one of our macs had the same problem and it was fixed after we removed all the extra fonts the operator had installed.

  • My brand new Mac Pro running Mountain Lion crashes when installing updates or new software.

    My brand new Mac Pro running Mountain Lion crashes and re-boots when installing updates or new software. I can only perform these operations while in the safe boot mode.  I have reloaded OSX twice. Does not solve the problem.  The machine is brand new. It replaced a previous MacPro that would not support the new Mountain Lion.  When my new machine came in.  I swaped the dirve out of my old unit into the new and ran the new Lion update.  The machine has had this aforementioned problem since that time.  Also, I had the Legacy version of File Vault running on the old machine/drive, which I also turned off(thinking that was the problem)  but that did not fix the problem either.

  • Brand new Mac Pro.. CD DRIVE DOESN'T WORK!

    I just set up my new Mac Pro yesterday, and the cd/dvd drive doesn't work. It worked once, when I was installing a printer, but it made a really bad noise, and now whenever I put any cd or dvd in, it doesn't even recognize it or react.
    I don't know what to do.
    I know I have a warranty so somebody from apple should be able to help me, but I can't even reach anybody on the customer support phone number.
    Does anybody know a way to fix this?

    Try depressing the SMC RESET button for 10 seconds, small round button under drive #4 in the rear (with unit unplugged).

  • Can I put these drives from my old PPC power Mac G5 in my brand new Mac Pro

    My old Mac stopped working and it was time for a new one. I think the motherboard died. Can I put my old hard drives in the empty bays on the brand new Mac? I have
    Seagate ES 2 750 GB Serial ATA
    Hitachi HDS722525VLSA80 SATA 250 GB
    Thanks in advance
    Steve

    Should not be a problem, but that doesn't mean that just having the PPC system doesn't / hasn't affected one or two users.
    The safest way is to put it in a FW case of course, a way to mount it after boot up.
    Run the Mac Pro as is for a day. Clone the system, may as well get started with backup and fall back if needed. Even run Apple Hardware Test. Get to know everything works, booting, monitor and everything, and that it sleeps/wakes and does all the normal things it should properly.

  • Locked out of brand new Mac Pro (password nightmare)

    I'm a very experienced Mac user -- and I'm stumped.
    • Just bought a new Mac Pro, running Leopard (not Snow Leopard).
    • Used Migration Assistant to copy settings from Quad G5, also running Leopard.
    • Migration failed with errors, one of which was "[PreviousUserName] could not be created." (It specified the previous user name.)
    • I restarted the new machine.
    • Now _it asks for a user name and password_ -- which I never specified -- so, _I can't log in. I'm locked out of my brand new Mac._ The user name and password from the old machine do not work. I can't even log on as root!
    • So, I reinstalled Leopard from the install DVD. But after doing so...
    • I'm still asked for a user name and password.
    *Apple's official document on resetting the admin password:* http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1274
    • So, I followed those instructions. I booted from the Mac Pro's install CD and selected "Reset password…" from the Utility menu. But upon doing so, there are no users to reset! The only user in the list is root, and according to the (linked) support document, one is to avoid resetting the password for root (not that I ever had a chance to set one anyway).
    So, I remain locked out of my brand new Mac, unable to reset the password that somehow got set in the failed Migration Assistant procedure.
    I'm stumped. Suggestions?

    Thanks for the reply. You may not have read my entire post, since I mentioned I'd already attempted two of your suggestions (reinstalling the OS and logging in as root). Unfortunately, at the time, I was unable to do either.
    Since then, however, I've made some progress:
    I found partial success by ignoring the support document's "warning" and resetting the password for the root user. Doing so allowed me to log in as root and create a new user. (Disclaimer to others: Do NOT do this unless you're sure you know what you're doing.)
    I'm now able to log in, but am experiencing other errors -- which I believe are related to the failed Migration Assistant procedure. But at least I'm now able to log in. I'm hoping to make further progress with Disk Utility and Disk Warrior (but that would be another thread). For now, I've solved the primary issue described in this thread.
