How to check iMac temperature?

What's an easy, free way to check the temperature of my late 2013 iMac? It's a 21.5 2.7ghz 8gb model with Mavericks. Also, what temperature is it supposed to be at?
Thanks!

iStatMenus is a really cool (pun intended) little app that will give you everything you need. There's a 14 day demo to test it out, that may give you the info you need, $16 if you want it longer. There's a bunch of sensors in your machine, the temperature each one is supposed to be varies but something in the 80-100° range is probably "normal" for most of them, but of course will change a little according to ambient temperature, and a lot depending on what you are asking your CPU & GPU to do.
Get it from the developer here, install is quick and painless:

    I saw several references to speedfan but just want to make sure I get the appropriate one. I just got this PC and would like to check the temp over the next few days just to see how everything is doing.  Thank You .

    My InDesign cs6 keeps crashing, so my boss ask me to reinstall back. But the problem is, how do I check the serial number? Someone else has already installed it, and we cant track who.

    Not very good office/employee management... but if you DID know who, and you had his/her Adobe ID, you could go to https://www.adobe.com/account.html for a list of activated programs

    I would find Marcel Bresink's Temperature Monitor more trustworty, as he has just updated the code and explicitly states compatibility with all 2012 models:  http://www.bresink.de/osx/TemperatureMonitor.html
    I have just downloaded the "Marcel Bresink's Temperature Monitor"/
    You are correct, it does give a more accurate reading.

  • How to override iMac password?

    how to override iMac password?

    This discussion is for computer built before 2006.  The same solution probably applies to newer computers.
    You can  change the password on an account.  ( Do you know Unix. You are in a Unix single user console. )  The setup commands you need should be listed on the screen.  For Mac OS 10.4.11, the commands are:
    # Type the follow two instructions to access the startup disk in read/write.
    # check out the filesystem.
    # ( in case of partial success repeat this command until errors go away. )
    /sbin/fsck -fy
    # Gain read / write access to your startup drive
    /sbin/mount -uw /
    ->Start up some utility processes that are needed.
    sh /etc/rc
    ->You will probably need to press the return key once the system stops typing.
    ->To find out the users on the system type, use the ls command. The l is a lower case L:
    ls /Users
    ->One of these accounts will be the administrator.
    ->Pick one of the users which I'll call a-user-name and type it in this command:
    passwd a-user-name
    ->and enter the new user password. You need six characters.
    ->You will need to enter your password twice.  Your typing will not show up on the screen just
    -> press enter when you complete the typing.
    ->For cryptic information on these commands try:
    man ls
    man passwd
    The root account isn't enabled by default. I am not sure if changing the password on root will enable it.

  • Snow Leopard, iMac Temperature and Fans?

    Since getting my iMac eighteen months ago I have checked the temperatures regularly.
    Unfortunately I did not write them down and cannot remember what the highest "normal" temperature was, though the hottest place was always the "Power Supply Position 1".
    One thing I am certain of is that I thought the 3 fans just had one set speed because every time I checked the Optical Drive was always around 699rpm and the HD and CPU fans were always 1199rpm.
    Until a couple of weeks ago I had not updated the original OS which was 10.5.2, but then I updated to 10.5.8 in one go and last week I upgraded to Snow Leopard 10.6.1 by installing it over Leopard.
    Today I was doing some simple editing in Final Cut Pro for an hour and checked the temperature.
    The Power Supply Position 1 was 176 degrees F. I can't be sure but I have a feeling that I have never seen it above 169.
    I then put a 20 minute video in Compressor to encode and the temperature rose to a maximum of 179.6 and the CPU fan was around 1500rpm which I have never seen before.
    Has SL had any effect on temperatures or fan speeds?
    Are these figures normal?
    My room was only 66 degrees which is fairly cool.

    Thanks K T and Pondini.
    That's really what I was looking for Ikrupp, some figures from other users under moderately intensive operations (not writing emails!).
    Yesterday, when I had finished using Compressor the temperature started dropping from almost 180°F and when it reached 176°F the fan had also dropped to 1199rpm so it looks as though it doesn't speed up until the temperature exceeds 176°F.
    It appears that your figures are pretty close to mine. However, if others could give me figures they get under moderately intensive use, it would give me final confirmation that all is well (or not).

  • How come my iMac and MacBook connect to my AirPort Extreme but my iPhone and iPad 2 won't?

    How come my iMac and MacBook connect to my AirPort Extreme but my iPhone and iPad 2 don't?

    Sorry, I should have been more clear. I am asking if the DNS IP addresses, not the IP addresses assigned by the DHCP service, are the same. DNS is like the Internet's version of the Yellow Pages. Your ISP typically will provide them to you or you can elect to use those provided by another source, like OpenDNS.
    DNS is the service that translates a website's URL to its actual IP address so that you can access it. I am just trying to rule out that the PC is not configured properly with the correct DNS IP information.
    The other thing to check is if the PC is configured to use a Proxy service. By default, it would not be.
    Finally, what is the make & model of the PC. More importantly, if the PC is using either a PCI or USB wireless adapter, what is its make & model?

  • The database structure has been modified - how to check if it happend?

    Hello,
    I have a question. How to check if the database structure has been modified? I know that there is shown a messagebox after creating table and adding some fields, but sometimes this message appear after some seconds. The problem is that I want to create table and UDO for this table, and until database structure is not modified I got an error message. If I wait and DB strucuture modifies then UDO is creating correctly.
    My question is - does anyone know how to check if database structure has been modified?
    Regards,
    Hmg

    Hi Szymon,
    I guess you are stuck up in a kinda scenario, where in, you will be populating a form with values, before the structure modifies, if this is going to be your problem, I can help you out with a work around.
    In the beginning of the process, before the creation of the UDO or tables, set a boolean value to false, and once all UDO's and Tables are created, only then, should you make it true and only after the boolean becomes true, you should proceed with populating the values from the screen.
    I really ament sure what your problem is, but one of my guys faced this problem, I then, thought even you might have a similar problem.

  • How to check SSO user from database?

    Hi:
    I've posted this topic in Forms forum:
    How to check SSO user from database?
    then as I've been told, it's better to post it here, so ...... here is the question:
    I'm writing a "before delete trigger" to insert into log table before delete. Is there a way that I know from database the current SSO user when SSO users share one database user?
    Just like in Oracle Application Express there is v('APP_USER') to know the current user.
    Saad,

    End users are manipulating data through Oracle Forms(and SSO through portal) and the thing I need is to trace the SSO username from database without modifying forms, I mean purely from database taking into consideration that SSO users are sharing one database user. Is it possible?

  • How to check  if all values from a dataset  has come to  an internal table

    How to check  if all values from a dataset  has come to  an internal table ?

    Hi,
    After OPEN DATASET statement check if sy-subrc = 0 if its success then proceed with split statement and save the dataset values into a internal table and while debugging the internal table you will find that whether all values get into internal table.
    Checking sy-subrc after OPEN DATASET statement is must to fill up the values in the internal table.
    For e.g.
    OPEN DATASET p_inpfile FOR INPUT IN TEXT MODE ENCODING DEFAULT.
      IF sy-subrc NE 0.
        WRITE :/ 'No such input file' .
        EXIT.
      ELSE.
    READ DATASET p_inpfile INTO loc_string.
          IF sy-subrc NE 0.
            EXIT.
          ELSE.
            CLEAR loc2.
    *Spliting fields in the file-
            REPLACE ALL OCCURRENCES OF '#' IN wa_string WITH ' '.
           SPLIT wa_string AT const INTO loc2-pernr
                                           loc2-werks
                                           loc2-persk 
                                           loc2-vdsk1.
    Hope you get some idea.
