Fan goes on from the startup and never stop!
Is that normal?
When I turned on my MBP fist in the morning, the temp was only 22 for CPU Core 1 and 22 for CPU Core 2. However, the fan went on from the startup. If the fan noise was silent and soft, I wouldn't complain, but it is so NOTICEABLE.
It makes "shhhhhhhhhhhhhh" sound "All The Time." I wonder if this is normal.
If you guys give me some advices or help, I would appriciate your help.
thanks...

MacBook Retina 13 fan goes up all the time and wlan crashes every few minutes
Hello,
I've got a MacBook Retina 13" Haswell edition and as soon I open any kind of app or if I just idle at the desktop the fan goes up to 100% and the temperature of the CPU goes over 90celsius all the time.
Also my wifi connection drops all the time im not using my thunderbolt bridge which is super annoying, it can only be fixed by tuning the wifi on and off and after 10 minutes it disconnects again.
is there any way to fix it?Backup your data or Home folder. Boot from your Snow Leopard installer disc. Select your language and click on the Continue button. Wait for the menubar to appear then select Disk Utility from the Utilities menu. Select your hard drive from the DU sidebar, click on the Erase tab in the DU main window. Set the format type to Mac OS Extended, Journaled, then click on the Erase button. When the process is finished quit DU and return to the installer. Complete the installation.
After you have reinstalled OS X you can restore your data from the backup. -
My MacBook late 2008 fan goes on all the time and is very loud is this normal
It's weird I will be on safari or on iTunes or other apps and it will turn on and wear down battery is this normal
Open Activity Monitor in the Utilities folder. Select All Processes from the Processes dropdown menu. Click twice on the CPU% column header to display in descending order. If you find a process using a large amount of CPU time, then select the process and click on the Quit icon in the toolbar. Click on the Force Quit button to kill the process. See if that helps. Be sure to note the name of the runaway process so you can track down the cause of the problem.

My fan keeps running and never stop
my laptop is dell studio 1458
the system is the latest archlinx x64, and now i am using kde 4.6
the problem is that the fan of my laptop keeps running all the time and never stop.
Is there any solution to this problem?
Thx...The warning is there so that people realize they need to be aware of the possible outcome if they don't properly check their fans during the setting up of the software.
The guide even suggests to keep a constant watch on the CPU's temperature during testing, and suggests how you can immediately spin up the fans to max in case of a too high temperature:
Second warning: Some of the steps outlined below describe how to tweak fan speeds. Before doing this be sure you have a low cpu load and are comfortable playing around. If at any time during tweaking you notice the CPU temperature start to rise dramatically, do a echo "255" > /sys/class/hwmon/hwmon0/device/pwm1 to spin up the fan all the way until things cool down. Basically, you should know what you're doing before fooling with the configuration file.
Alternatively, there's a fan control deamon called dellfand. A related topic can be found here:
https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?id=54865
Essentially, all these tools do the same. The temperature is polled and the fan speed is adjusted.
As far as I know, there is no alternative way / graphical tool to do this for you.
*edit*
considering this is a dell studio, have you checked the system's bios to see if the automated fan control is enabled?

HT1776 Hi, my iMac screen goes to sleep but the fan stays on 24hrs and never stops?
Hi, my iMac screen goes to sleep but the fan stays on 24hrs and never stops? You can hear it running all night.
Appreciate any advice.I'm using Lion. Many problems started since using Lion!The temps are a bit higher than I'd expect under normal circumstances, and too high while playing games, but what is the room temp where it is?
I def. think its a temp thing now. but why does it only raise when im playing games or watching videos online?
Games tipically press the CPU, Video Card, RAM, and everything else much harder than most apps.
It may be a Fan not working properly, or just dust buildup.
Boot off your Install Disk while holding down the *d key*, (not c key), then run the extended Apple Hardware Test. Some disks require you to use the Option key at bootup to select AHT. Some models have a separate AHT CD.
Report any errors it finds. -
I have problems in communication between my notebook and Epson printer. It goes offline everytime I unplug it from the notebook and there is no way how to switch it on. Although the printer is recognized and scanning is not a problem. Any solution?
this is exactly the kind of response i expected, almost begged support to please not do this to me and yet there it is another meaningless, non helpful, standard template response to restart my apple tv.
this does NOT work which is why i am contacting you. i have tried all suggestions about unplugging and restarting and nothing works.
i live in an apartment and logon to the provided wifi wireless. so i do not have access to a router. however, management says they have talked with their provider and have been assured that the required ports are available.
remember all the jokes about how bad windows was because the solution was always to re boot. funny huh? how is apple any different.
i have been to the local apple care store and they are clueless, too.
should we just end it here and you admit that i will not be getting any support from apple on this one? i got the ipad because my kids were such big fans. it is difficult for me to share their enthusiasm.
at this point i am just curious about how you say you cannot support your own product so i can complete my file on this contact.
thanks...sorry it was you who got this problem.. -
i have my mums payment details on my itunes account, but i bought a £15 itunes voucher today from the shop and put it on my phone.. but it wont let me buy any apps becouse it keeps going to my mums payment details. can someoe help me with this
If the amount of the purchase is close to $21.07, then you need to take into account taxes may be added.
If you go beyond the credit from a gift card the balance will be billed to your credit card account. -
I have an Ipad from the UK and some iTunes vouchers. I am going to get a bp newer ipad/mini. Can I transfer app/music/photos etc on pro new device and can I use iTunes vouchers forum the UK?
You can sync your content to a new device but you cannot transfer vouchers from one country's store to another country's store if that is what you want to do.

I explained it most in my question but I am getting charged double for songs that I have already paid for and am not going to pay for twice because that is messed up. But I want to get some apps from the store and it wont let me because of $5.25. Who can I talk to about resolving this issue?
You're right, it would have been covered under warranty. But because of the user damage, chances are there's a 200-something dollar fee . If you explain to them that it had a defect previously, they might replace it for you at no charge. **MIGHT**. But they would have to believe that it had a defect previously.

I purchased a season of a TV show from itunes and it won't go onto my ipad, i've purchased several seasons in the past and never had this issue, how can i fix this?
Drew how is that even possible? I use gift cards all the time, any time I've had insufficient funds iTunes will not allow the purchase, sights Insufficient funds and rejects the purchase. Any time I log into my account the money in that account appears in the upper left corner. If you're not seeing that then you have other issues. Anyway... Kneil is right you should be able to rip CDs you own to your iTunes library (regardless of your money matters with iTunes), then depending on how you set up the music you need to add it to your playlist and then sync it to your iPod. Did imported music ever work? How are you ripping or importing the music to iTunes? Are you using a compatible format?
Something else to look at-- It's possible your cable is defective, have you tried a new or different cable? Some of what your describing is a bad cable issue. Good luck, Cheers. -
On my iPad Mini, when I delete an email from the inbox (and it goes into Trash), it immediately deletes that email from the server (ATT/Yahoo). I've called support for both ATT and Apple and can't find a way to have the emails remain on the server.
My husband and I share an email address and if he misses a day checking email on his notebook, he doesn't receive the items that I have sent to Trash on my iPad Mini.
Appreciate suggestions.
[The curious thing is, if I "move" the deleted emails from Trash on my iPad Mini into the Inbox, I can go to my notebook, open my online email and they are back in my ATT/Yahoo Inbox.]Is your Yahoo account set up as POP3 or IMAP?

My iTunes won't update, it starts to install then just says it can't. I decided to try uninstall it but it won't even uninstall anymore, there is some type of ERROR going on. I tried to just install iTunes from the website and that won't even work. I'm using a Windows Vista.
Hi there,
I've got a couple of articles that may help you out. This first one goes over how to properly remove and reinstall iTunes.

how do i delete from the startup disk? I am trying to get Mountain Lion from the App store and it says that the purchase was not complete because i need 4.06 GB space to download OS x 10.8. and to remove items from my startup disk to increase space. How?
ThanksYou can use iCloud with 10.7.5. You do not need to upgrade to Yosemite. You should provide a minimum of 15 GBs of free space or 10% of the hard drive's capacity, whichever is greater.
Freeing Up Space on The Hard Drive
1. See Lion/Mountain Lion/Mavericks' Storage Display.
2. You can remove data from your Home folder except for the /Home/Library/ folder.
3. Visit The XLab FAQs and read the FAQ on freeing up space on your hard drive.
4. Also see Freeing space on your Mac OS X startup disk.
5. See Where did my Disk Space go?.
6. See The Storage Display.
You must Empty the Trash in order to recover the space they occupied on the hard drive.
You should consider replacing the drive with a larger one. Check out OWC for drives, tutorials, and toolkits.
Try using OmniDiskSweeper 1.8 or GrandPerspective to search your drive for large files and where they are located. -
I get redirected to unwanted web sites during searches from the browser ONLY, never from the toolbar. Is this the same malware problem as discribed for redirects from BOTH the browser and the toolbar?
== This happened ==
Every time Firefox opened
== was happening with Internet Explorer, continues with FirefoxDid you do a malware check?
Do a malware check with a few malware scan programs.
You need to use all programs because each detects different malware.
Make sure that you update each program to get the latest version of the database.
