Fan noise after an hour of use

I was installing a package which took approx. an hour.  At the end of the hour, I could hear the fan noise.  That's the only time I have heard any noise (for that matter).  Is that normal.  I have a Mac Pro 15" Retina.  Thanks!

This may help explain the fan's operation: Learn about the fans in your Mac
After installing a package Spotlight activity increases, and it's normal for that to cause temporarily elevated temperatures. The fans should quiet down in a few minutes.
If you suspect something abnormal read: Runaway applications can shorten battery runtime, affect performance, and increase heat and fan activity

  • Is it normal to get fan noise after 5 minutes of use?

    Each time I use my Mc=b Air, fan noise starts within few minutes of use while office temperature remains cool.

    It is not normal.

  • Why did my iMac fan come on very noisy after 1 hour of use ? I had to turn it off to stop it

    Why did my iMac fan come on very noisy after 1 hour of use ? I had to turn it off to stop it

    Just updated details - os x 10.8.5 .....
    found an answer that could have been problem with CPU and a runaway application (possibly Bin Weevils) which my son was running at the time.  I shall check the activity monitor next time to see what percentage cpu is being used..

  • Firefox automatically crashes after 4 hours of use and only when a textbox is being used - problem now daily and getting worse

    This has been going on for a few weeks and started of it's own accord. I have not recently installed any new plugins or scripts, and my PC is protected by two antivirus products and so my system (WinXP) is malware free.
    I can browse firefox for up to 4 hours, and then it crashes. No matter what sites I am using, what I am doing or even if I'm at the PC... so long as there's a text box on the page then firefox will crash if the 4 hour time limit expires. I can be just about to save an hours worth of photo captions and lose all that work due to the crash, or can be in the middle of a background download but it'll still crash... daily.
    I thought this was a plugin issue, as I have disabled all plugins for javascript handling, flashgot, etc, but still it crashes. (previously on startup Firefox would hang for 5 to 10 minutes and the system would "bing" at me if I tried to click on the firefox window... eventually a 'non responsive script' window would appear relating to a flashgot script). The crash used to go whereby suddenly the page would freeze for a few seconds, followed by a minute or two of safe working, then 2 minutes of freeze and 30 seconds of safe working, with the ratio of freeze-tim:working time working in 20 seconds increments until firefox crashed... now though there is no warning, the page freezes and then it's gone. I have updated firefox several times and still the problem persists. On a previous computer, Firefox degraded to the point where it froze for 4 minutes on any page with a Flash application... now on this computer it has degraded by itself to the point where it crashes after 4 hours of use.
    I'm presently using Internet Explorer to type this question because firefox crashed again and I'm not going to sit waiting for it to reload just to get a few numbers from an information screen... therefore further info like crash ID's etc will be update in due time....

    Cool, I'll try using the wall adaptor just as soon as I get a convertor for it to convert it to our socket type. It's nice to hear that someone else has experienced the same issue.
    I am not using it as a phone in Australia, just the ipod and wifi.

  • Lenovo Flex 10 touchscreen stops working after 1 hour of use.

    Just bought a new Lenovo Flex 10 from a retail and it works perfectly except that after an hour of use the touchscreen stops working, the computer still works ok, but only with the mousepad. The notebook came with Windows 8.1, and I haven't installed any program on it. I need an urgent response please, since i've been looking for days in the community and other support pages, and still can't get a satisfactory answer and the period to get the a refund are about to expire.
    Thanks in advance.

    hi riglesias,
    Welcome to the Lenovo Forums.
    Once the Touchscreen stops responding, can you check the following:
    1. Open System Properties and see if the Touch functionality is still there 
      - Link to picture (Touchscreen feature is not detected)
      - Link to picture (Touchscreen feature is detected)
    If the Touchscreen feature is detected, proceed to Step 2.
    2. Press the Windows key‌ +R, type devmgmt.msc and press Enter. On the Device Manager, navigate to the Human Interface Devices section and uninstall anything that says HID-compliant device (this is the driver that controls the touchscreen). When finished, reboot the system and observe.
    3. If the Touchscreen is still not working, hold the Shift Key and hit the restart button inside Windows and you should be able to see the image below then try to tap on the screen to test and observe. I
    If the touch capability is still not functioning, I recommend you contact lenovo for service.

    Hi,
    After many tests i put the version of MaxDB 7.6 in production, after some hours of use, now i'm getting a strange slow down in performance of the database, looking at the knldiag file i cant find anything that can show me the reason.
    any idea how to check what happen?
    thanks

    Hi, Oksana,
    I think that notes are only for SAP customers, right? because i'm not a SAP customer, there is a way to you be more specific about what i need to check without having access to that notes?
    look on wrk directory i discover that the files QUAL.dmp and comseg.dmp are updated when the system get slow, i checked the knldiag but dont have any error,
    any idea because these files are generated?
    best regards

  • Why do I have fan noise after OS 10.7.5 update?

    I used to have moaning sounds coming from my Mac Pro (Quad Core, early 2008) when I was in motion graphics programs, or in NetFlix. But ever since I updated to OS 10.7.5 3 days ago, the fan moaning is incessant. Help! I just spent $200 on an old geezer "official Mac" technician, who came to my home office and spent 2 hours doing DiskWarrior!
    I am so busy right now, I can't stop to take the tower to a local authorized shop. Will the noise sink my CPU? What is causing it? Is it a glitch in OS 10.7.5? Or do I need new fan(s)?
    Anyone hear complaints of sudden incessant noise other than mine?

    I used the following:
    Copy and past the following in terminal followed by your password when asked for:
    sudo launchctl unload -w /System/Library/LaunchDaemons/com.apple.metadata.mds.plist
    Note that if you've got anything listed in the Spotlight control panel in Privacy, it will be deleted.
    To turn it back on (which I haven't tried yet since I don't use Spotlight):
    sudo launchctl load -w /System/Library/LaunchDaemons/com.apple.metadata.mds.plist
    When Spotlight is frantically reading everything and indexing it, a lot of CPU % is used, and the HD is being exercised too. That generates heat and could be the cause of the increased fan noise when your Mac Pro speeds up its fans to try to protect itself. 10.7.5 seems problematic in this respect and since your noise problem started after the 10.7.5 update, the two might be connected. Apple tends to run a Mac Pro's fans very slowly to keep the machine quiet, so any speedup would be noticeable.

  • Short burst of fan noises after sleep?

    Does anyone else experience this and is it normal?
    I have a brand new Dual 3GHz Mac Pro. When I wake it from sleep (after a few seconds or a few hours, makes no difference), there is a sudden short (about 1 to 2 seconds) burst of fan noise, kind of like a short rev, then when monitor kicks in computer goes to almost silent again, part from a slight hum.
    Does this sound normal, can Mac Pro users quickly sleep and then unsleep your computer and tell me if you expreience this?

    The fans are controlled by routines in the operating system that monitor all the temperature sensors. These routines also send periodic signals to the control circuitry saying everything is under control. In the absence of these periodic signals (e.g. the temperature routines aren't running yet because the boot procedure isn't complete, or the system has frozen), the circuitry switches all the fans to full speed, to be on the safe side, and prevent overheating. This will happen when power it turned on, or the system has just woken up. It may also happen when running hardware tests, when certain parts must be tested at full speed without interruption.

  • Excessive fan noise after 10.7 install

    After the installation of 10.7 Lion, I am getting excessive fan noise... it keeps turning on, then off.  InterCheck seems to be the cuplrit, what ever that is.

    I don't know what InterCheck is, but expect your fans to come on and the system to work hard for 30-60 minutes after the upgrade.  Spotlight will likely re-index your files.
    It should calm down after an hour or so.

  • Fan noise after update

    I have a mac mini intel 1,83Ghz with 1Gb ram since November 2006. The RAM was set up by the vendor.
    Everything was fine since the beginning of this week: update, new programme, i don't know? but now the fan seems to work everytime. No special use: internet, mail, some series...
    I check the cpu usage:ok ; the temperature: about 58 °C ; disk, etc ok
    So what? I see this problemon on a lot of forums but no solution...
    Please give me some help
    PS: I never touch/move or open my mac mini since received (no fan noise at that moment)

    Well, I seem to have fixed the problem, although I did a couple things simultaneously, so I'm not sure which actually cured it. I checked for updates and downloaded a macmini firmware update. I followed the instructions for installing the firmware, which involve shutting down the machine and then holding the start button down til the light bar comes on solid after flashing. While it was off, I also unplugged everthing and let the Mini sit for 30 seconds. I'd read that this will reset the System Management Controller, which among other things, controls the fan. (http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=303446) When the machine came back up, the fan was quiet. Now I also picked it up while it was disconnected, so there's a chance that a loose connection might have reseated just enought to work again for a bit. We'll see.

  • Fan Noise After SMC Reset

    I apologize if this question has been covered in another post; however, I looked around for quite a while and didn't see anything.
    I suddenly started having issues with my iSight today. I searched troubleshooting and was instructed to reset my SMC. Which I did. As soon as I powered my computer back on, though, the fan started blowing like crazy. It's far too loud for normal use! (My iSight works again.)
    Can anyone help me return the fan noise to normal. Everyone else says to reset the SMC... but that's what caused my problem in the first place. Any help would be GREATLY appreciated!!

    Be sure that after resetting your SMC you are not pressing the power button while plugging the power cord back in to your iMac. If you did, you need to reset your SMC again

  • Safari freezes after several hours of use on Macbook pro

    I just bought a Macbook Pro.  When using safari, it freezes at least once a day to a point I can't force quit, and had to do a hard shut down.  I've figured out that if I am using my computer and safari for more than a couple of hours, Safari just freezes.  An apple support representative did mention that laptops were not meant to be constantly on, so I have been shutting it down when not in use.  Still, I shouldn't have to shut down after an hour just to keep Safari from freezing. 
    Does this sound normal?  Is there an easy fix?  Do I need to look at getting this computer replaced?  Or should I download a better web browser?
    I'm also new to Mac, and thought switching from a windows would mean better reliability.  So far I have been unimpressed with my computer.  I just want it to work without worrying about having to force it to shut down once a day.  Thanks for your help!

    Does this sound normal?
    No, of course not.
    1. This procedure is a diagnostic test. It changes nothing, for better or worse, and therefore will not, in itself, solve the problem. But with the aid of the test results, the solution may take a few minutes, instead of hours or days.
    Don't be put off merely by the seeming complexity of these instructions. The process is much less complicated than the description. You do harder tasks with the computer all the time.
    2. If you don't already have a current backup, back up all data before doing anything else. The backup is necessary on general principle, not because of anything in the test procedure. Backup is always a must, and when you're having any kind of trouble with the computer, you may be at higher than usual risk of losing data, whether you follow these instructions or not.
    There are ways to back up a computer that isn't fully functional. Ask if you need guidance.
    3. Below are instructions to run a UNIX shell script, a type of program. As I wrote above, it changes nothing. It doesn't send or receive any data on the network. All it does is to generate a human-readable report on the state of the computer. That report goes nowhere unless you choose to share it. If you prefer, you can read it yourself without disclosing the contents to me or anyone else.
    You should be wondering whether you can believe me, and whether it's safe to run a program at the behest of a stranger. In general, no, it's not safe and I don't encourage it.
    In this case, however, there are a couple of ways for you to decide whether the program is safe without having to trust me. First, you can read it. Unlike an application that you download and click to run, it's transparent, so anyone with the necessary skill can verify what it does.
    You may not be able to understand the script yourself. But variations of the script have been posted on this website thousands of times over a period of years. The site is hosted by Apple, which does not allow it to be used to distribute harmful software. Any one of the millions of registered users could have read the script and raised the alarm if it was harmful. Then I would not be here now and you would not be reading this message.
    Nevertheless, if you can't satisfy yourself that these instructions are safe, don't follow them. Ask for other options.
    4. Here's a summary of what you need to do, if you choose to proceed:
    ☞ Copy a line of text in this window to the Clipboard.
    ☞ Paste into the window of another application.
    ☞ Wait for the test to run. It usually takes a few minutes.
    ☞ Paste the results, which will have been copied automatically, back into a reply on this page.
    The sequence is: copy, paste, wait, paste again. You don't need to copy a second time. Details follow.
    5. You may have started the computer in "safe" mode. Preferably, these steps should be taken in “normal” mode, under the conditions in which the problem is reproduced. If the system is now in safe mode and works well enough in normal mode to run the test, restart as usual. If you can only test in safe mode, do that.
    6. If you have more than one user, and the one affected by the problem is not an administrator, then please run the test twice: once while logged in as the affected user, and once as an administrator. The results may be different. The user that is created automatically on a new computer when you start it for the first time is an administrator. If you can't log in as an administrator, test as the affected user. Most personal Macs have only one user, and in that case this section doesn’t apply. Don't log in as root.
    7. The script is a single long line, all of which must be selected. You can accomplish this easily by triple-clicking anywhere in the line. The whole line will highlight, though you may not see all of it in the browser window, and you can then copy it. If you try to select the line by dragging across the part you can see, you won't get all of it.
    Triple-click anywhere in the line of text below on this page to select it:

    Copy the selected text to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination command-C.
    8. Launch the built-in Terminal application in any of the following ways:
    ☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
    ☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
    ☞ Open LaunchPad. Click Utilities, then Terminal in the icon grid.
    Click anywhere in the Terminal window and paste by pressing command-V. The text you pasted should vanish immediately. If it doesn't, press the return key.
    9. If you see an error message in the Terminal window such as "Syntax error" or "Event not found," enter
    exec bash
    and press return. Then paste the script again.
    10. If you're logged in as an administrator, you'll be prompted for your login password. Nothing will be displayed when you type it. You will not see the usual dots in place of typed characters. Make sure caps lock is off. Type carefully and then press return. You may get a one-time warning to be careful. If you make three failed attempts to enter the password, the test will run anyway, but it will produce less information. In most cases, the difference is not important. If you don't know the password, or if you prefer not to enter it, press the key combination control-C or just press return  three times at the password prompt. Again, the script will still run.
    If you're not logged in as an administrator, you won't be prompted for a password. The test will still run. It just won't do anything that requires administrator privileges.
    11. The test may take a few minutes to run, depending on how many files you have and the speed of the computer. A computer that's abnormally slow may take longer to run the test. While it's running, there will be nothing in the Terminal window and no indication of progress. Wait for the line
    [Process completed]
    to appear. If you don't see it within half an hour or so, the test probably won't complete in a reasonable time. In that case, close the Terminal window and report what happened. No harm will be done.
    12. When the test is complete, quit Terminal. The results will have been copied to the Clipboard automatically. They are not shown in the Terminal window. Please don't copy anything from there. All you have to do is start a reply to this comment and then paste by pressing command-V again.
    At the top of the results, there will be a line that begins with the words "Start time." If you don't see that, but instead see a mass of gibberish, you didn't wait for the "Process completed" message to appear in the Terminal window. Please wait for it and try again.
    If any private information, such as your name or email address, appears in the results, anonymize it before posting. Usually that won't be necessary.
    13. When you post the results, you might see an error message on the web page: "You have included content in your post that is not permitted," or "You are not authorized to post." That's a bug in the forum software. Please post the test results on Pastebin, then post a link here to the page you created.
    14. This is a public forum, and others may give you advice based on the results of the test. They speak only for themselves, and I don't necessarily agree with them.

  • X 200 fan noise after upgrading to windows 7 32 bit

    last month iv'e upgraded from win vista 32 bit to win 7 32 bit, ever since (that day exactly!)  i did that i'm facing a lot more fan noise then before the upgrade, noise that bothers me.
    it seems like the fan is starting to work more often then before, and besides that it never goes into idle but continue to work all the, regardless of the load on the computer.
    until now iv'e tried to update anything possible (including bios) , i have reinstalled the win 7 with a clean install (the first time i used the update option) and again updated everything possible, that didn't solve the problem.
    iv'e also tried to change the power manger options regarding the fan and cooling policy. the only thing that made any change is the "reduce noise dynamically" but that option also changes the overall performence of my system,so that's not a solution for me.
    iv'e also read in a couple of places that turning down the wifi or access connection helped someone, but not for...
    any ideas what to do next?

    i've got the same problem. upgraded from a silent windows xp to windows 7, and there's the noise.
    have you found any solution to tune it down?
    thanks and best regards,
    michael

  • Randomly displays "Connect to itunes" after several hours of use.

    Just bought this new 16GB 3GS iphone from a friend which is only one month old. He recieved it as a replacement from apple which worked fine for him. After inserting my sim card and restoring from backup apps and settings of my 2G, after about 5 hours of use it randomly displayed "Connec to itunes" screen. Connected to itunes and said it could not read contents of phone and to restore.
    Restored iphone and setup new device this time and redid everything from scratch. Worked for about 5-7 hours this time and then did the same thing. Did another low level format and restore of the phone and this time it lasted 10 hours and displayed the same thing.
    Anyone have any ideas of whats going on here? Did the restore from backup of my 2G cause something to be screwed up?
    Thanks for the responses in advance!

    Ok I've uninstalled everything relating to iTunes and apple from my winXP netbook and reinstalled iTunes with updated 9.2.1 and then updated the 3GS to 4.0.1
    We'll see if the new iTunes update fixed 4.0 upgrade issues which claims it has and see if my phone lasts longer than 10 hours this time.
