And if i use it in school , and for exaple are writing a document, it is still wery loud/ to loud compared to that i'm only writing a document. Peoble in my class room calls it the bom! And makes a countdown every time it sounds like it is going to explode. Even in power saver mode!
I cant use it in my lap becouse it is to hot.
I cant use it in my class room since the fan is to loud.
I cant play a game wiftout it ower heating.
I'm realy disapointed! I hope for Hp it is a production fail. Not a design fail.

Itunes seems to be playing the same music twice is a short delaly so that it sounds like an echo

itunes is playing the same song twice with one delayed enough that it sounds like an echo. I have deinstalled itunes and reinstalled with the same results.

I have solved the problem. i think when I moved the media file back out of public to my account, I put it back into the wrong place and ended up with a media file inside a media file, inside another media file!! So I moved it again and fixed!! Now I just need to work out why i can't share with another account user of same computor.

Last night I was Skyping and the other person said that I sounded like a robot. Whats wrong?

I spilled tea on my macbook pro last night and this morning i opened it and the fan began going loudly. It sounds like static. Is this a new thing to save itself?

I spilled my tea last night and a little got on my keyboard, by where the power cord plugs in. We immediately turned it upside down and of course dried off as much as possible. This morning, I tried turning it on and nothing happened. I waited a few minutes and tried again. The fan turned on, but nothing else. It sounds like static or white noise, but when you get closer you can feel the wind blowing from the fan. Is this a new self-saving thing? I just got it this year, 2014.

Turn it off now, it's damaged and the more you turn the power on the worse that can get.
Take it Apple, do not turn it on again.

Why is my iMac making a loud noise? sounds like a fan running

Why is my Mac making a sound that sounds like a fan running?

I have never heard this before in the 3 years I have had my Mac

Mic is too sensitive, calls constantly cut out. People tell me y loud, and it sounds like I'm in a tunnel. Any background noise, and call is completely cutting out. This occurs all the time, but more so using earphones with in cord mic.

I have iphone5 ios6 and the Mic is too sensitive, and calls constantly cut in and out. People tell me there is loud background noise and it sounds like I'm in a wind tunnel. Any background noise, and call completely cuts in and out and sounds as if call is dropping. This occurs all the time, but more noticeable while using earphones with in cord mic. I never had this problem with my old iphone4. Has anyone experienced this, and is there a setting that can correct this problem?

Same problem for me. So bad in fact that I can't really use my headphones for calls. I have tried it with several sets of headphones. My primary are the Bang and Olufsen headphones which were great with the previous iphone 4 and 3.
Apple please address this issue.

Strange fan noize with black macbook, sounds like a cow!

Hi
The fan noize on my macbook has been getting worse and worse as i go, its been almost a year since i had it and now its starting to really make seriously LOUD noize, at times it sounds like a cow choking on and off.
While the computer is under a insurance which covers any accidents or things like this, i am hoping i can do something before i bring it to the store i got it from and wait a month before i get it back.
can anyone advise here?

Sounds like a cow eh? You might have a case of the moos.
No kidding! This was a common problem on early core duo MacBooks.
You can also listen to a mooing MacBook here.

Why is the fan so loud that when i video chat my friends can't hear me?

The fan is so loud and my computer is slowing down it on mas os x snow leopard version 10.6.8

What model MacBook is this? Ihave a 2008 black Macbook that gets extremly loud when using flash sites or viewing videos. The Macbook is on SL.
I have a 2010 MacBook that the fans rarely spin up 100% and is extremely quiet when doing the same things that I do on the black MacBook. This MB is on Lion.
There may be nothing you can do but depending upon which model you have, you can take off the bottom cover and make sure the fans are clean and not blocked by dust.

My iMac is making a louder that usual sound when in use - any suggestions to get it to chill out a bit?!

It's a low whirring, I'm sure it's louder than it used to be and it definitely gets louder the more windows I have open, or applications are running, iTunes with Photoshop and Safari etc. causes it to get much louder. It's not the actual fan as far as I can tell, the other day I put it to sleep and it instead froze and the fan was really loud in that case and I just had to turn it off at the back.
I tried repairing the disk permissions, it's made no difference. I can't see anything out of place it Activity Monitor but I might be wrong about that.
Is it a case of the Mac getting too hot, or just that it's nearly 6 years old?!
Any suggestions would be great, thanks.

First, make sure that all your air vents are free of dust and lint.
Then,try http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1436 Resetting SMU
After that, if you do not have an iSight, open the back and look for bulging or leaking caps (the little soda can). It's likely that either some caps are bad or your power supply unit is failing. Go to User>Applications>Utilities>Console and type in maximum temperature in the little box at the top right of Console. If you see any heat messages, then your problem is likely what I suggested.

Why is my fan running loudly?

My Macbook Pro Retina 13" is about 6 months old. Just today it started running warmer than normal and the fan is MUCH more audible than usual. My office staff commented that it sounds like it's overheating. I am not doing anything differently than normal nor have I downloaded any new programs in the last few weeks. Any ideas about why this has suddenly become an issue? This issue occurs whether the laptop is plugged into my Thunderbolt display or running off of battery power.

Thank you! I stopped the application that had 'taken over' or run away but it was the Mail program and I don't know how to figure out what's wrong with it so that it doesn't happen again.

IMAC sounds like a fan

When my imac is powered on it sounds like a fan is running. Any suggestions?

When I first bought my 24" iMac (2.4Ghz, white version, not the latest aluminum version), it did exactly the same thing. The fan would be overpowering and sounded like a hairdryer on full blast. As a new Mac user at the time I was pretty surprised!! I even called Apple Support and they told me some special ways to reset the machine (that I don't remember and actually did not work).
To cut a long story short and to hopefully help you out -- I unplugged the power source/cable from the back of the iMac, left it out for about 10 seconds, and then plugged it back in. Rebooted, and everything worked.
I would recommend anyone to try this before anything else. Good luck!

Will running games that make the fan run loudly and the computer heat up damage my machine?

On my Macbook Air running Yosemite 10.10.3, with 4 GB RAM, 251 GB storage (170 GB free), a 1.6 GHz Intel Core i5 processor, and Intel HD 6000 1536 MB graphics card, when I play games such as Batman Arkham City, I experience very smooth gameplay with high fps. The only thing that worries me is when I play, the laptop heats up very much and the fan runs pretty loudly. Even with old, less intensive games like GTA SA, the computer gets pretty hot and the fan runs loudly. Is this damaging the computer, or can I continue to play these games?
Thanks.

Yes you can continue to play games but heat is the bane of electronics and in time there will be a cost. When is hard to say, but I can put it this way, a fan running constantly at high speed is more likely to fail sooner than one at a slower speed.
Ciao.

No startup chime, red light, fans running loud...

yeah, I know that there are other threads with the same topic, but I just wanted to know how common this problem is?
How many people have experienced this?
What are the common disturbances?
What is going on?
Why is such an expensive, powerhouse computer become such a puny electronic product because of power issues?
I posted this in another thread but,
Here's my story:
I am having the same problem.
Now before you start taking advice to back up all your data, reformat your hard drive, and reinstall all the software; please take note of a few things:
first off, I'm ****** that this is happening to me. I spend $5000+ for a "reliable" Apple computer. Then it doesn't want to turn on because its not safe. Sorry if I drown this post with bitter sarcasm but I am coming to the end of the line with my patience.
I called Apple Care, read a bunch of posts (here and elsewhere), and yes I do know about the SMU Reset button (like that really does anything?).
My problem happened a few weeks ago and I thought nothing of it at first. There was a power outage for a quick second and it turned everything off. When I went to turn on my computer, there was no chime, the red light was on, and the fans were running and eventually began running very loud. After letting it run like that in hopes of the screen lighting up, I turned it off by holding the power button. By the way, there's nothing on the screen and the keyboard doesn't work (I use a wireless keyboard, but I plugged in the OG cord keyboard to push whatever series of buttons recommended by these "geniuses") Trust me, the computer doesn't make it to that part of the boot process, so stop with commandoption+PR or F12 to get the CD out. It doesn't work! What's up with this computer! It can handle all these intense calculations,etc. but a power surge is going to shut it down indefinitely.
So I left the computer came back the next day, turned it on and its fine. Cool, I'm happy. It's Working!! I go on a few weeks, then I go to turn it on this Monday, same problem. But actually a worse situation. I had a client come over and the computer wouldn't work. I looked like a idiot. Couldn't do anything cause my computer didn't want to turn on. I do music production/editing. I use my G5 for running ProTools LE. I have other programs but that is the main one I use. There's nothing wrong with it. It's optimized for use with the mac. So those people who are going to advise me to uninstall all my software and all that - I appreciate your concern but don't give advice when you don't know anything!
So I am getting frustrated. My client left a little disappointed, but what can you do? I tried to call AppleCare on Mon. but it was Memorial Day. So I waited for Tues.
Tues morning, my computer turns on like everything is fine.
I'm happy but cautious. I talk to AppleCare rep. He tells me that it is a common problem they have heard about with the G5's. Wherever blackouts, brownouts, spikes, sags, dips, and other electricity inconsistencies occur, the Power Mac G5 has a breaker in it which flips so it doesn't receive uneven power supply and damage internal components.
I like that feature. Good thinking Apple. Protecting my investment from bad electrical grids. But I don't like the fact my computer has a mind of its own where it decides when it wants to boot or when it wants to sit there and run its fans all loud.
I shut down Tues morn to go to work. I come back in the evening, it doesn't want to boot up. Instead of getting angry trying a bunch of times to turn on/turn off the computer, I leave my house all together and go and have a few drinks. I come home ,don't even look at my computer, and go to bed.
I wake up Wed. morning. Go to turn on my computer. Successful boot. It's running. Okay, I think, I'm going to get down to the problem. I read all the logs, not like I know every piece of info, but just to see what's happening. Everything looks fine. I decide to run the AppleCare CD Tech Tool. It says restart holding down C. I do that. When the gray Apple Logo comes up, all this writing about kernals comes up and it tells me to restart or shutdown. I shutdown and attempt to restart, same problem: no chime, red light on, and fans eventually spin loud. Now the CD is stuck in there. I'm going to take it to the Apple Store tomorrow to if these "geniuses" can figure it out.
(Just a side note: Apple calls them geniuses, but its hard for me to think some disconnected college kid with a bad haircut and questionable social skills knows what's up with the power supply issues of a computer; maybe I'm wrong, but you can run your diagnostics and look at the chart of what to do and all that BUT Apple needs to listen to the people)
I am going to get a UPS (uninteruptable power supply) with a clean sine wave output to curb the issue at my end. It's not my fault I live in a area that receives uneven power output. I live in Los Angeles. Summer is starting up and I think its going to be hot, so blackouts, power dips and sags are inevitable. I just don't understand why Apple hasn't considered this problem and fixed it with something:
A recall to change the power supply, Is it something on the logic board?, are they going to reimburse me for lost income (Ha, yeah right)
I really want to know how many people are having this problem?
From what I've heard, it is a common problem.
So I think we need a common solution.
If its so common, it must be the computer. We are all going to live in different areas where the power may vary. Not all of us have the consistent power flow of 1 Infinite Loop in Cupertino, CA. So if it is such a common problem, Apple needs to fix it.
I can't spend more than five grand on a super duper computer and have it wuss out on some power issues.
Its a loss of income and productivity to me.
I can't have that anymore.
Sometimes my computer turns on, sometimes it doesn't.
I bought my PowerMac G5 in April 2006, its been about a month and a half and I'm having these problems.
Thank you for your time.
If anyone else has been having this problem, I feel for you.
It was been very difficult for me not to curse in this post, but I have tried to extend the same respect to all that use these discussion boards to create dialogue, find help, and create solutions.
LETS FIX IT!
Peace,

Well, you can see my specs below. I have the same problems as you, just worse. I am also running (as I have my previous systems) on an APC Smart-UPS 2200, and it doesn't solve this problem.
I bought my machine last December. In early March (just 2 days before my 90 days of phone support were up), I woke the computer from sleep to check email; about 5 minutes later it just froze. I had to force it down, but it never even got to the startup chime.
Called Apple, bought Apple Care on the spot, spent about 45 minutes on the phone with two levels of support, and Apple couldn't really diagnose the problem. They decided to send out a replacement logic board, processor unit and power supply for on-site service (I don't have an Apple service center nearby).
Nearly two weeks later the technician arrived with the parts, installed all of them, and - nothing. The system still exhibited the same symptoms as before the repair. He spent around five hours here, most of it on the phone with Apple. They decided that the processor unit they shipped was defective, so they sent another processor unit.
Nearly another two weeks later, the re-replacement processor unit arrived with the tech. He installed it, and everything worked. This was around April 1.
Fast forward to last Wednesday. Arrived home from work, tried to wake the Mac. Nothing happened. Had to force the machine off. Never booted again. Called Apple and went through the motions again. They're sending another logic board, processor unit, and power supply.
I asked about having the machine replaced since this will be the third repair attempt, considering it took two visits and nearly a month to repair it the first time it died. Apple was unwilling to replace it but I was told that if I had another failure, a replacement would be in the cards.
I agree with you about needing reliability in a computer as expensive as a Power Mac. It is not acceptable to have this kind of failure, repeatedly, with this kind of system. If my Windows PC has a hardware failure, I can take care of it myself. A top-end power supply is ~$200, a quality system board is ~$200-$300 - all very doable, and in very little time, if the need arises. A Power Mac logic board is ~$1K, a cpu module is well over $1K, who knows how much that crappy power supply costs, etc. If you have Apple Care, you face the kinds of downtime I'm having to deal with. A month without use of your computer. I mean, if I buy a Dell workstation, or an HP workstation, and pay an extra $200-$300 for service and something fails, Unisys will be here the next day and it will be fixed. That's the standard business class service experience you get from those companies with a computer that costs $600, much less the $3000+ you dish out for a Quad Power Mac. Apple's response is unacceptable.
It's a good thing I have kept my Windoze machine around, cause it's really saved my butt the last 2-3 months; that also makes me really sad, because in the last 6-7 years of Power Mac ownership I've had zero problems with any of them. My dad has my previous machine, a Rev A Dual 2.0 G5, and it's rock solid.
I sure hope that the Intel based Power Mac replacement doesn't suffer from what ever seems to afflict the recent Power Macs. I would absolutely hate to abandon OSX, but I will not put up with this kind of quality failure (hardware & service) again.

MacBook Pro Retina 13" fan very loud/overheats when playing full screen video/games

Hi,
Just purchased a MacBook Pro Retina, refurbished (because why not - the same product for a cheaper price) around a month ago. It's the 13 inch and is the model before the most recent one came out (4GB of RAM instead of 8GB - late 2013). From the very first day, playing a full-screen video on any site (be it YouTube, Facebook, etc) just makes the fan much louder than usual (so loud that you can almost hear it more over the video itself). Thought it may have been just a thing with Flash Player being buggy, but the problem has persisted for a while now. I'm not even pushing the CPU to any limits - literally playing a full-screen video on Facebook (not even in HD) makes the fan go crazy.
Just last night I tried installing Borderlands 2 and it was the same thing - FPS rate was fine, no lag, just the fan was so loud that I actually got scared for my computer and turned it off. After closing the app and checking out the fan temperature, it was at 91c.
Never happens when browsing/surfing or doing my usual work.
Should I go give it back to Apple? The thing is I start university in less than a week (and hence will be traveling), so not sure if I can afford to give my laptop in to them for a long period of time (I know it should be free though since mine is a refurb item). May it just be an issue that is quickly repairable or is this worse?

During processor intensive activities—such as processing HD video or playing a game that makes extensive use of the graphics processor—the fans speed up to provide additional airflow.
