  • MacBook Air over cooling with very loud sound

    My Mac Book Air is over cooling even though it isn't hot. The fans run 24/7 until I turn my Laptop off once I turn it on again they run again. The fans are very very loud and I think it is making my Laptop slower. Any ideas?

  • My macbook air is making a very quiet, buzzing sound..

    whenever i'm scrolling (on the trackpad).. It's coming from the top right corner. It's also making the same sound when it's loading or processing something - as if it was struggling or something.. Since it's only 2 months old I don't think it's a major problem, but it's really annoying and it started just now. Does anybody have a clue how to fix it, please?

    Some times it is the fan that has a problem, but that makes more of louder clicking sound. The fact that it happens when you are scrolling makes me definitly think of the power supply. I could be wrong of course. Try putting you ear right next to the power supply in a quiet environement and then scroll.

  • Hi folks! My MacBook Air is making awkward little chipping sound... For no apparent reason. My Macbook Pro does the same. Goes like "chip... chip... chip", always three times in a row, for no apparent reason. Does anyone know how this occurs? Thanks

    It seems to be linked to the sound being on. When I mute the thing, it doesn't do it. When I plug headphones into it, it does it over the headphones.
    Thanks for your help!

  • My macbook air was making the 3 beep sound

    my macbook air was making the 3 beep sound, what does that mean?

    When you boot and you get 3 beeps and the system won't start up, that means you have a memory problem. This Apple note describes the tone/blinking lights in more detail.  Since memory isn't user removable on the MBA's, you should take it into an Apple store or Apple Authorized Service Provider for service.

  • My MacBook Air is making a noise every 7 seconds for 2 seconds. It started today, and I have had it for almost a year.  It is below the power switch and annoying enough that it is hard to even work with the computer.  Ideas?

    My MacBook Air is making a clicking noise every 7 seconds for 2 seconds. It started today, and I have had the computer for almost a year.  It is below the power switch and annoying enough that it is hard to even work with the computer.  It sounds as if a hard drive is trying to work. No applications running.  Ideas?

    If its a MBA with solid state drive then I would guess its the fan touching something ???. I think it have no other moving parts.

  • What is causing the very Loud Fan noise everytime I use the computer? What is causing the Heat as well?  Please help

    Please Help!
    My computer has been making very LOUD fan noises. I know this cant be normal. How can I fix this issue?
    This has been going on for a while now. As soon as I turn on the computer....the noise starts.

    Go check out Activity Monitor on your Mac.  It will show you which programs are running, and how heavy their use of your CPU is.
    When mine does this, for some reason, I have a bunch of "Managed Clients" running at once.  I use Act. Mon. to shut them down, and my Mac runs normally.

  • My macbook air wont boot up. Just beeps every 5 seconds and a white light flashes on front of keyboard

    My macbook air wont boot up. Just beeps every 5 seconds and a white light flashes on front of keyboard

    That normally indicates an issue with system memory. The startup sequence can't complete the boot due to a memory issue. Take it in for service.

  • My 2009 iMac is making a very loud,rapid pulsating electronic noise. It stops temporarily after adjusting the screen brightness or using certain apps. But it always returns

    My 2009 iMac is making a very loud noise. It sounds like a rapid, pulsating electronic noise. It stops when the screen brightness is adjusted or when using certain apps. But it always returns and is getting louder. The unit was shut down for 4 months and the house temperature was set to 5C. It was powered up 2 weeks ago and ran fine for a while. Then in the last 5 or 6 days the problem started. 5 days ago I did watch a bike race for 3 or 4 hours from a quasi legal stream. I am not tech savvy. Just very confused as I've had a trouble free run so far. Ditto with my iphone5.

    I would recommend taking it in immediately to your local Apple Store or AASP to be loooked at by an Apple Genius. I suspect you made a goof somewhere but diagnosing noises without seeing it is really difficult.

    My Mac book pro is not turning on keeps on making very annoying beeping noises. I need to know how to fix it NOW

    Beeps on startup:
    1 beep = no RAM installed
    2 beeps = incompatible RAM types
    3 beeps = no good banks
    4 beeps = no good boot images.
    5 beeps = processor is not usable

    3 beeps = no good banks. You will have to go to the Apple Store for immediate service. If you would rather do it yourself, go to https://selfsolve.apple.com/GetWarranty.do.

  • New Macbook Air i5 wireless is very slow and disconnect again and again. Any one has the same issue or some help??

    I recently bought a new 13 inch Macbook air and wireless internet is really slow and disconnect again and again. However I hav another windows laptop at the same place and that never disconects or looses signals? wireless on this mac is too slow that I cannot even use to make a skype call. I am new mac user and getting a bit disappointed because of this bad performance.I googled about this issue and found that lot of people are having the same issue with macbook air. I switched off the bluetooth adaptor but still no progress. Any help will be appreciated. Thanks

    I am experiencing something similar with my MBA 13"/i5/256GB.
    To take it one step further, I started up a Terminal session and ran a ping against my wireless router. I see the same pattern repeated over and over: I get about 5 or 6 pings through, then 4 or 5 misses, then it reconnects again. When it reconnects, the first ping or two have times in thousands of milliseconds, where normal is maybe sub-millisecond to 4ms for the remaining few seconds.
    I have other wireless devices, including iPhone, iPad, and an older MacBook - all work fine. The MBA is the only Lion device.
