Fan is running constantly after upgrading to Yosemite
I have a 2007 era MacBookPro and since upgrading toYosemite, the fan will not stop running, from the moment I power on. This is new behavior that I did not have under previous OSs. At the moment, I have only Safari and Finder apps open and the machine is so hot I'm afraid I'm going to start a fire!
Here's the machine I have:
MacBook Pro (17-inch 2.4GHZ)
2.4 GHz Intel Core 2 Duo
4 GB 667 MHz DDR2 SDRAM
NVIDIA GeForce 8600M GT 256 MB
Am I going to have to revert back to the previous OS? I'm afraid to leave it on unattended.

Hi. Try resetting your NVRAM & SMC.

Battery discharging and fan running constantly after upgrading to Yosemite
MBP Early 2011. Just got back a month ago from Apple Support for video related issue. Almost EVERYTHING was replaced (logic board, video, ram, battery, cdrom, even my dented case. Thank you Apple!). Has run for a month flawlessly on Mavericks. Upgraded to Yosemite 48 hours ago. Light on magsafe stays green. Battery indicator icon states Battery is not charging (currently at 75% and falling). Power source: Power adapter. While plugged in and operating, battery is discharging and fan constantly running. If I shut down, mag safe light turns yellow and battery will charge to 100%. If left plugged in and running in Yosemite, battery will drain all the way down.
Have tried:
Rebooting, putting into sleep mode, shutting down completely, unplugging and replugging power supply from wall and MBP while on and off, resetting SMC with Shift Control Option Power keys/buttons.
No third party battery or power apps installed, fresh load of Mavericks from factory when I got it back. This feels like something with the new energy management in Yosemite isn't working as expected to me. Thoughts & suggestions appreciated!UPDATE: Resolved!
Disabled all login items but problem persisted on normal boot. Resetting SMC and PRAM had no effect. After booting into Safe Boot, problem did not exist. Looked in console logs and saw this right as problem started to occur:
10/20/14 6:49:07.004 PM com.apple.xpc.launchd[1]: (com.gspy.MO3V2Daemon[93967]) Could not find and/or execute program specified by service: 2: No such file or directory: /Library/MO3V2/MO3V2Daemon.app/Contents/MacOS/MO3V2Daemon
This pertains to the Steelseries WoW MMO gaming mouse. Ran the uninstall.command from Applications for this mouse software and rebooted. Fixed.
Light on MagSafe connector is orange, battery shows as charging, fan is not running constantly. I can't begin to understand how this would effect the battery charging functions but, after uninstalling this, the problem was resolved. Hope this will help someone else. -
My macbook is running slow after upgrading to yosemite
Other's have posted similar experiences by when I ran etrecheck I didn't get a bunch of fails and yet my computer is extremely sluggish since moving from snow leopard to Yosemite. So much so, that I'm considering going back. Programs load slowly and switching between programs has a delayed response. Reminds me of the PC I had before I bought my macbook in 2008.
Any ideas on what might be causing the slow down?

If you didn't do a complete reinstall from the original media, then you need to do it. Adobe software doesn't do migration well.

MacBook Pro mid-2012 running very slowly after upgrade to Yosemite
Problem description:
MacBook Pro mid-2012 - installed Yosemite, and the system now crawls. Webpages have very delayed responses, can take 30+ seconds to react to typing or selection. I turned off FileVault, that did not appear to help. Emptied the trash, removed some obsolete fonts. Any help for what else to try would be much appreciated.

Yosemite Running Slow after Upgrade? Try these TIPS!
It seems that lots of people are encountering issues of slowness or sluggishness or lagginess after upgrading to Yosemite. I have been following a variety of different threads here on Apple Discussions, on Google discussions and elsewhere. There seems to be some common items that have caused slow downs and some fixes that seem to work.
Briefly, FileVault 2 encryption/decryption process seems to cause issues while it's running. Also resetting SMC and zapping PRAM seems to help.
To make it easier for others, I posted a list of 13+ items that you can try if your Mac is slowing down after the upgrade to Yosemite. If any of these items helped, please be sure to leave a comment on the post and share it with others.
Here is the article, hope it helps!

Black boot screen and startup manager on mid 2014 rMBP after upgrading to Yosemite
After upgrading to Yosemite I'm experiencing black booting process. Moreover, I noticed that the startup manager, which we access by holding the option key, has the black background too. I didn't like the Yosemite, so I downgraded back to Mavericks, but I still have the startup manager with the black background and the initial screen during the startup sound is black too, and after that the grey screen with the Apple logo comes up, which is typical for Mavericks. I want my startup manager to have the grey background as before. And also, before there was the grey screen during the startup sound, not the black one. How to revert all this to the previous state? I'm experiencing all this on my rMBP, 13-inch, mid-2014.
I want to revert because after downgrading back to Mavericks my rMBP started freezing terribly, especially on youtube, ebay and app store. And it's not just the web browsing, it's freezing when navigating in finder too. I know there are many experienced users here, so I hope that somebody can help me with this. Before upgrading to Yosemite my machine was running flawlessly.nobody?

I just updated my Macbook (2010) to Yosemite, and it's become very slow. After searching through this community, I downloaded and run EtreCheck, but don't understand what the report means. Please could you help me with what I should do to improve my computer's speed, aside from upgrading my RAM? Thank you so much.

You have had good information here. I will not repeat that here.
I would like to add:
you have incompatible software: start in SafeMode, read Woodmeister and see if it is free of issues.
Akamai is crap software needed or not, Huawei the same.
It is very possible that the keygenerator you used for generating a key for some softwares has infected your mac.
The non-regular software with the false key(s) are not compatible probably or generate malware. Luckily you can not update them automatically because the keygenerator blocked the software for contacting the developer... I propose to consider getting rid of those softwares by really good uninstalling.
You have a beautiful mac, don't degenerate it with crapped software. There are alternatives for expensive software, for example Adobe Photoshop has a free alternative (with a less beautiful interface) in GIMP. And so on.

After upgrading to yosemite, cannot login as mobile user
After upgrading to Yosemite, I can no longer log on to the Mavericks server as a mobile user. The password prompt is first on the server instead, because only after I do I remove all network connections or disable, I can log in.
The connection to the server is running AFP. If I remove the binding in the user settings, then it goes without problems. Also, the Sync works to profile server. I create the new binding, I can do this only with no name / password, otherwise it returns an error message.
What can be the problem? Must necessarily be 4.0 installed Yosemite or server on the server?
Thanks for a tip!
ZeljkoQuick tip: try logging in and don't use capitals or spaces in your username.
So instead of: Bram From Maastricht, use bramfrommaastricht -
After upgrading to Yosemite iPhoto does not open
After upgrading to Yosemite iPhoto will not work. Does not work even after installing iPhoto Library Upgrader. Any suggestions
Does not work even after installing iPhoto Library Upgrader. Any suggestions
You not only have to download the iPhoto Library Upgrader but you also have to run it on the library. It'll be in the Applications/Utilities folder. Double click on it to launch and it will automatically locate the last library you worked with and convert it. -
After upgrading to Yosemite, I had to upgrade iPhoto. Now when I try to open iPhoto I get the following message:
The photo library needs to be upgraded to work with this version iPhoto.
Your photo library will not be readable by previous versions of iPhoto after the upgrade. The upgrade process for very large libraries may take an hour or more to complete .
Question is...how do i upgrade the photo library?You can't back up an open iPhoto...
Most Simple Back Up:
Drag the iPhoto Library from your Pictures Folder to another Disk. This will make a copy on that disk.
Slightly more complex: Use an app that will do incremental back ups. This is a very good way to work. The first time you run the back up the app will make a complete copy of the Library. Thereafter it will update the back up with the changes you have made. That makes subsequent back ups much faster. Many of these apps also have scheduling capabilities: So set it up and it will do the back up automatically.
Example of such apps: Chronosync - but there are many others. Search on MacUpdate or the App Store -

how to install iPhoto after upgrading to yosemite?
Download it from the App Store as Matt suggested. You may have to move the current version to the Trash Bin (don't delete yet), go to the App Store and look for iPhoto 9.6 under purchases. It will be free.
What iPhoto version did you have prior to the Yosemite upgrade? If it was iPhoto 7 (08) or earlier you'll also have to download and run the iPhoto Library Upgrader 1.1 on your library before opening it with iPhoto 9.6. -
After upgrading to Yosemite, If i plug in my Zte MF 820 LTE modem into my Macbook Pro USB socket or a Thunderbolt USB Ethernet converter/ into my Notebook, it slow down dramatically the system, unusable, need to reboot and unplug the USB moderm or Thunderbolt interface.
