fans on full bore after installing 10.9.2 update. fix?

Same here. I've reset pram, smc, checked for any CPU intensive apps, bought new battery, even opened case and blew dust out of fans. Was going to do a heat sink clean but another thread brought up the idea of Mavericks being the culprit. I hadn't thought of it before but I'm starting to think it has to do with Mavericks.

Mac Pro fans run full speed after installing Solid State Drives

I recently visited the Genius Bar at my local Apple store because my Mac Pro's fans were running at full speed after installing 2 solid state drives. The genius told me that it was because the drives themselves are so small they don't touch the metal tab on the motherboard that reads the drive's temperature, so it defaults to running full speed. Does anyone know how to fix this problem? I've tried smcFan Control but it doesn't let me set the actual fan speed. I'm getting 5200 rpms on my Boost A and B fans, and this causes an insane amount of noise. Can anyone help?

Which model Mac Pro?
I have an SSD in a 2009 (MacPro4,1). I removed it from the 2.5 in stamped metal can, and just installed the bare circuit board onto the SATA connector. It does not make any contact with the metal tab below the SATA connector. The only trouble I have is that Tech Tool Pro says its temperature is not optimum when it does disk tests.

CPU fan running full speed after 15 minutes

My 3 month old iMac 24" has just started having fan problems.
Before I went away on a training course, it was working fine. Left it switched off at the outlet for 3 days, now the CPU fan runs full speed after the iMac has been switched on for 15 to 20 minutes.
CPU temp is 24C, CPU heatsink is 28C. Ambient is 17C. CPU fan is 3600rpm. Other fans are normal.
CPU usage is less that 10%. Only Safari is running.
I've tried resetting the SMC - left all plugs disconnected for 15 minutes, reconnected mains power for 15 minutes, reconnected USB, then switched on.
Still the same - OK for 15 minutes, then CPU fan runs full speed.
Anything else that I can try?

I tried again, following your instructions exactly. It seemed to work, running normally for about an hour.
I left all the USB devices unplugged, except for the keyboard and mouse.
I then shut the iMac down, but left the mains power turned on at the wall. When I switched it on again 2 hours later, all was OK for 15 minutes, then the CPU fan ran at full speed.
Shutting down for a few seconds fixes it for another 15 minutes.
I'm wondering if it's a software problem, although I haven't loaded any apps recently, apart from a few monitoring programs since this problem appeared.
Last night I left it running the extended hardware test for a couple of hours, and the fans were fine.
One thing that I noticed yesterday was that the "GPU" temperature readings in iStat were all missing (just "-" displayed) for a couple of seconds when I clicked on Dashboard. Is there a way to keep iStat open while I'm using the iMac?
I think I'll try booting XP and see what happens.

After installing the latest ipod update some of my purchased songs no longer play

After installing the latest ipod update some of my purchased songs no longer play (though they still play on the computer). When I tested it on another computer it claimed that computer was not authroied to play these songs even though I was just playing them directly off the ipod. Even more strange is that I alos have a number of songs loaded on my itunes from albums I loaded and I am fairly sure these songs were ones I recorded rather than purchased but now they appear on my purchased list.

Try:
- Reset the iOS device. Nothing will be lost
Reset iOS device: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
- Unsync all music and resync
- Reset all settings
Go to Settings > General > Reset and tap Reset All Settings.
All your preferences and settings are reset. Information (such as contacts and calendars) and media (such as songs and videos) aren’t affected.
- Restore from backup. See:
iOS: How to back up
- Restore to factory settings/new iOS device.
If still problem, make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store since it appears you have a hardware problem.

After installing 10.7.2 update the OS does not boot.Any thoughts????

After installing 10.7.2 update the OS does not boot. I tried to recover from recovery hd disk but after 3 attempts I am still not able to download lion! Any thoughts????

Try the Lion Community, and bookmark the notebook community (this is not).
You will probably need to provide others with more information too.
Cloned backup? TimeMachine? using Disk Utilityh to repair Lion from the recovery partition (comnand r on startup)

Problems shutting down after installing 10.5.3 update?

Has anyone had any problems shutting down there IMac's after installing 10.5.3 update? I've tried shutting down twice and the image that appears when shutting down seems to go in an endless loop an doesn't shut down.

Can you restart from the menu and hold the shift key down, until the Mac
boots in a SafeBoot login screen; then choose Disk Utility (shortcut under
GO in Finder window, to Utilities folder) and run 'repair disk permissions'
then restart the computer normally...(?)
You may also have to consider starting the computer from the OS X
installer disc and choose from an option menu there (not to install)
and choose to use Disk Utility from the booted installer disc, to run
'repair disk' from there? You could also run 'repair disk permissions'
while booted from that installer disc, but maybe you'd still have to
repair those from the running system for best effect once it is back
running from the hard drive's system.
Some minor issues can happen after an update, usually just repairing
disk permissions before installing the update, and/or running up in
SafeBoot, can help. There are other things to try and do, if these don't
help that much. The state of the system prior to an update is important;
since an update can't fix anything otherwise non-related to an update.
Maintenance issues aside, after you repair disk permissions, safeboot,
and restart, if there still is an issue, you could try to download the Combo
OSX 10.5.3 update file and install it over your system; and then repair
disk permissions again after it finally restarts normally.
Was the 10.5.3 update a smaller (delta) file or was it the Combo (large) file?
Good luck & happy computing!

Low Signal Strneght after installing 6.0.2 update

Hi,
I am recieving low signal strneght after installing 6.0.2 update.Any fixes ? or anybody

Oops I meant cellular w/o the data.
You can try doing a reset, hold down the home/power button together until you see the apple logo and then release, then wait for the phone to boot back up.
if that doesn't help then try - settings - general - reset - reset network settings.
if that doesn't help, then contact your phone carrier and see if they can help.

Unable to access media card after install of 10 software update

After installing the software 10 update, i'm not able to access the media card from the phone or when plugged in to the laptop. from the phone settings menu, i cant choose to save any file into the media card - its grayed out. Everything was working fine until I installed the update. Is this a common problem? did the update wipe out all the media card contents?

Have you tried removing the media card and re-inserting it?

You need to delete and redownload them to do that. This may require repurchasing paid ones.

Fans are always on after late Oct. automatic software update

The fans are always on after yesterday's automatic software update (late Oct 2011).
The fans run at 5500, cpu temp is at 85C with only Mail and Safari on, and Activity monitor shows that the 95% of the CPU activity is consumed by CoreserviceSD, whatever that may be. What's going on?
MBP 2011, 17", 2.2, i7, 8GB.

CoreserviceSD does a lot of display services for Finder. It is used to display Icons, for example.
Searches for CoreServiceSD suggest SOME other users have solved this problem by clearing caches.

Black screen and fan running full- bore

Computer was running fine when I closed the lid (no shutdown) to put it to sleep for the night. Next morning as usual I opened the lid but the screen showed no signs of waking up. The battery was apparently dead so I plugged it in. Pushed the power button and the fan came on full-bore and the screen never showed a sign of coming to life. Restart, no help. Attempted to zap the PRAM but no signs that the key commands were recognized. (2 month old keyboard after the computer took a nasty fall and the old one popped out damaging the ribbon cable connector). Inserted a disk I thought would allow the computer to boot off of, it did some spinning but no change in computer's operational status. Eject button or key commands now fail to get the CD out. The only way to restart is to press power button until computer goes off then press again to start. The fan just keeps on running but nothing on the screen.
Connected computer to external monitor, no help, even after restarting. The monitor is connected to a G4 platinum tower so I know it works.
I also don't see a way to eject the inserted CD manually as command E, eject button, won't eject it.
I'm at a loss! First time a Mac has gotten the best of me. None of my years of little trick gathering has helped.

I tried holding down the trackpad button (forever), no help.
Was the computer all the way off (no lights, fan, sounds, etc.)?
Hold down the power button for ten seconds to shut everything off. If that doesn't do the trick, unplug the power adapter and remove the main battery. Then put them back, hold down the trackpad button, and start up. Is your CD ejected this time? If not, shut everything down again.
If it's a bootable CD, try booting to it after resetting the PRAM: hold down the p and r keys while starting up, and keep holding them down until you've heard three or four startup chimes (if you hear any). After the chimes, release those keys and immediately press the c key to force the PB to try to start up from the CD. Any luck? If the CD isn't a bootable one, of course there's no point in trying this step.
I tried restarting in the firmware mode (command, option, O, F), no help.
I don't know anything about that, so I'm no help with it either.
Before the black screen problem I noticed the battery would run down to zero overnight when the lid was closed and computer was sleeping. I'm not sure this is normal.
Definitely NOT normal, and this is undoubtedly a clue to what's wrong. Something is allowing the battery to drain when it shouldn't. (Batteries, actually, since the backup battery will also drain completely within 10-15 minutes after the main battery, if no AC adapter is connected.) This strongly suggests a short circuit to me. But tell me: do you always leave the Powerbook sleeping on battery power overnight, without the AC adapter connected? Or does the battery drain even with the adapter connected? That would point to a fault in the adapter or in the charging circuitry inside the Powerbook.
A short circuit might leave marks on the surfaces that are coming into contact and shouldn't be. Check the inside of the bottom panel, the logic board surface components, the underside of the keyboard, and whatever else you can see for visible signs of shorting. If you can see that something has been shorting against the inside of the bottom panel, as has occasionally been reported here, cover the affected spot with a small piece of electrical tape to insulate it. Tighten all visible screws — you'll need Phillips #0 and Torx #8 drivers. Look for empty screw holes: a screw wandering around loose inside could cause untold damage.
My AC adapter appears to work fine, it, like the battery, is only a couple of months old. Thing ringlight shows normally.
By "normally," do you mean orange while charging, green when the battery is fully charged, and never flashing, red, or off? That's what normal is.
If you haven't tried to recharge your internal backup battery as described in step 6 of the "Testing Backup Battery" article I linked above, do. Of course you won't be able to see or set the date and time or verify that the battery has been charged, but you can at least do what is supposed to charge it and hope for the best. Again, if it is discharged and hasn't been recharged in the course of all your machinations so far, everything else you do is doomed to fail until it gets recharged.
If after that nothing has changed, you might try disconnecting the backup battery from the logic board. Doing so will sometimes allow a PB to start up that has been prevented from doing so by a stone-dead backup battery. Consult the iFixit Guide for your particular Tibook model to find out exactly where the backup battery connector is in it. In my 1GHz Tibook, it's a small white connector under the right-hand Shift key, with red, white and black wires attached.
If none of this helps, I'm afraid you're due for a trip to the repair shop.
