I bought a MBP 13 inch, it has started to give me temperature trouble

I bought a MBP 13 inch, it has started to give me temperature trouble. I installed SMC fan control, and there only right side fan RPM is shown. Does it mean my left side fan is spoiled? I brought it about 3 months ago.

You are under warranty. Take the MBP to an Apple Store, or Apple Certified Reseller and have them perform a hardware evaluation.

    This is your choice.  They should not be insisting.  If you can afford it it is a good buy but lots of people go without it.

  • Bought my  MBP one week ago, but the health of battery has declined to 94%.

    G' Day Friends, I bought my MBP one week ago, but ISTAT shows that the health of battery now has declined to 94%. It's really ridiculous because it declined from 99% to 94% in the last three times I charged my battery. Is there a problem with my battery? or just the ISTAT is not exact?.... how can I deal with such a situation?......
    Look forward to your reply....
    Many thanks...

    Hi Loophy: During the first few charge/recharge cycles the "battery health" can fluctuate quite a bit. If it continues to deteriorate it may be an issue, but at this early stage, it isn't an issue. Please see the excellent collection of battery tips below.

  • Brand new Macbook pro 15inch (not Retina) wont boot my MBP 13 inch (2011) HD

    Just bought a brand new macbook pro 15 inch, replaced the hdd with my 13 inch hdd and it wont boot. i got a Error msg. (Lion)
    - I put the new hdd in the old MBP(13 inch) and it boots fine.
    - I put back the old hdd in the MBP(13 inch) and it boots fine.
    I figured the hdd wasnt compatable with the 15inch so then i cloned the 13inch hdd onto the 15inch hoping it would work. i still got the error msg.
    so now im stuck because the 15inch wont boot from the stock hdd because it has the data from the 13inch. Very frustrating, what could be the logical reason to why it wont boot?

    That's correct. The version of Lion you have on your old disk will not boot on the new machine.
    What you should have done is make a Time Machine backup of your old drive. You still may be able to buy an enclosure for it and see if you can use Migration Assistant to migrate your apps and data, but I'm not sure that will work (works when an old drive is in another Mac and you transfer via, for instance, Firewire).
    So you'll just have to resinatll the correct version of Mountain Lion and then you can TRY to use Migration Asistant to get your data/apps from your old hard drive once it's in an enclosure (again, I'm not sure that it will actually WORK, I've never tried it).

  • My MBP has started to send out TCP packets larger than the MTU on the NIC - is there any place that this can be overriden?

    Got a very weird issue here and wondering if anyone has any other ideas. Basically over the wired NIC only, my Mac has started to send out large HTTP/HTTPS packets from the browser (> 1500 bytes) Captures show packet sizes from 2000 all the way to 4000 sometimes. This happens in Firefox and Chrome so doesn't appear to be application related.
    This causes fragmentation issues and traffic drops which basically causes most of my websites and  tools to crash and burn (and I get all sorts of SSL errors from applications, etc).
    It appears to be limited to just TCP packets as pings with the DF bit set will not send any larger than 1500 bytes.
    However if I switch to wireless, everything works fine and captures show the correct maximum packet size of 1500 for all packets leaving my client.
    The MTU on the  en0 interface is 1500 as per ifconfig and I made sure that it was set to 1500 in Network config panel (because there is an option for jumbo frames there which bumps up the MTU).
    A packet capture also shows that during the three way handshake the TCP MSS is successfully sent and negotiated as 1480, but then it appears to ignore that when sending packets later in the TCP stream.
    I've rebooted, upgraded to 10.7.4, checked the "sysctl" outputs and matched against a Mac not having the issue.
    This is the newest MBP 15 inch model.
    Any other ideas on things to check?

    Have you used any sort of "tuner" software? You are obviously an advanced user. Sometimes we hack things up and forget about it later. If you are sure you didn't do that, maybe poke around with IPv6 settings. Supposedly people are trying to enable that and it is going to be a disaster.

  • Can I use the power charger(85W T Connector) with MBP(17 inch 2010 mid)?

    Hi I have a MBP (17 inch 2010 mid). It uses a 85W L Connector. But today, it is not working anymore.  And I found a older charger 85W T Connector is work with it. But I want to make sure it will not break my batter when a long time usage. Does anyone know it?
    Thanks in advance.
    TO APPLE GUYS,
    Why the material of your cable has so bad quality? It seem easy to aging. Not only the Power charger, also with your earphone cable and other USB cable.

    Thanks. It can work. But the Apple serivce guys told me it make harm my battery. I don't know why. So I want to make sure at here.
    I just wish the apple guys could read it in their free time.

  • Which cooler pad is good for MBP 13 inch 2011?

    some people said that altaz cooling pad is good. but i see that thermapak is also better. i don't know what must I choose for my MBP 13 inch.. any suggestion whcih one is better?

    I personnally use the CoolMaster NotePal X2. I bought this one because of the great location of the fan and how it fitted my Mac. I use it for my MacBook Pro 15 inch and fits perfectely.
    The MacBook Pro 13 inch will also fit but you'll see the borders of the fan.
    Anyways, here's the link on Amazon.com (I think they can deliver in Malaysia):

  • Will this hard drive work in my 2009 MBP 13 inch?

    Hello, I've decided to upgrade the hard drive in my Mid 2009 MBP 13 inch to roughly a 500gb from 250gb. My friend has a 2011 MBP 13" and he just upgraded it to 1TB and has his 500gb 5400rpm SATA 2 and said I can have it. Will that hard drive work in my 2009 MBP without any headaches? I just want to be sure before I put it in...Thanks in advance!!!!!!!!!

    I think 750GB is the Max you can install in your 09 MB.  ( not a 100% sure )
    I've seen some people trying to install 1TB on their 09 MB and had issues.
    Give it a shot, if it doesn't work, you can always exchange it for the smaller 750GB.
    Good luck..

  • I cannot use the Lion up-to-date program! I bought my MBP on June 8 and when entering the serial number says ineligible! Thanks!

    Thats the deal, i am a qualifiyng user for the Up To Date Program, and when entering the serial number of my MBP it says i am ineligible. I already tried with the form that had to be filled up if the direct method didn`t work and it has the same issue. My only possible explanation is that it seems they recently added a date limit for the submission of an order to get Lion free (July 19), which makes me be very disappointed with Apple because in the first communication about the up to date program they listed: "Customers who purchase a qualifying Mac between June 6, 2011 and the date when Lion is available in the Mac App Store will have 30 days from Lion’s official release date to make a request" .
    Please help me, I am from Chile and my sister bought the MBP to me by the Apple Online Store, so I can`t personally go to an Apple Store to explain my problem.
    THANKS!

    Muchas Gracias!
    Pero dejame hacerte otra pregunta... No entiendo porque sale ahora lo de "submit before july 19th" si es que en un principio dijeron que uno tenia 30 dias desde que saliera Lion para los que compraran despues del 6 de Junio. Esa es mi gran angustia en verdad, no me importa esperar, pero me daria mucha rabia haber perdido la oportunidad de descargarlo gratis. Tu llenaste alguna orden o algo similar antes del 19 de Julio? Yo no hice nada parecido, sin embargo cuando me meto a la parte de la garantia con mi serial number me sale que mi MBP esta activo y registrado y todo.
    Disculpa las molestias, y nuevamente muchisimas gracias!
    P.D: No puedo llamar a Apple porque aca en Chile no esta la Apple Store oficial, es un "authorized reseller" y se llama MACONLINE, asi que no se si ellos me puedan ayudar.

  • MBP This Apple ID has not purchased Lion.

    hi i bought a MBP of second hand and i restore and when i want to re installed the OS X mountain LION they need the apple id that was used to purchase "OS X Mountain Lion". so i dont know what to do because i bought to a friend that i cant contact to him, anyone can help me?

    You will need to use a Snow Leopard retail DVD. If you don't have one:
    You can purchase Snow Leopard through the Apple Store: Mac OS X 10.6 Snow Leopard - Apple Store (U.S.). The price is $19.99 plus tax. You will be sent physical media by mail after placing your order.
    After you install Snow Leopard you will have to download and install the Mac OS X 10.6.8 Update Combo v1.1 to update Snow Leopard to 10.6.8 and give you access to the App Store. Access to the App Store enables you to download Mountain Lion if your computer meets the requirements.
    Clean Install of Snow Leopard
    Be sure to make a backup first because the following procedure will erase
    the drive and everything on it.
         1. Boot the computer using the Snow Leopard Installer Disc or the Disc 1 that came
             with your computer.  Insert the disc into the optical drive and restart the computer.
             After the chime press and hold down the  "C" key.  Release the key when you see
             a small spinning gear appear below the dark gray Apple logo.
         2. After the installer loads select your language and click on the Continue
             button. When the menu bar appears select Disk Utility from the Utilities menu.
             After DU loads select the hard drive entry from the left side list (mfgr.'s ID and drive
             size.)  Click on the Partition tab in the DU main window.  Set the number of
             partitions to one (1) from the Partitions drop down menu, click on Options button
             and select GUID, click on OK, then set the format type to MacOS Extended
             (Journaled, if supported), then click on the Apply button.
         3. When the formatting has completed quit DU and return to the installer.  Proceed
             with the OS X installation and follow the directions included with the installer.
         4. When the installation has completed your computer will Restart into the Setup
             Assistant. Be sure you configure your initial admin account with the exact same
             username and password that you used on your old drive. After you finish Setup
             Assistant will complete the installation after which you will be running a fresh
             install of OS X.  You can now begin the update process by opening Software
             Update and installing all recommended updates to bring your installation current.
    Download and install Mac OS X 10.6.8 Update Combo v1.1.
    Once this is completed you can download Mavericks from the App Store using your Apple ID and password.

  • Brand new MBP 13 inch, "NO AirPort card installed" message

    Hello!
    I just bought a new MBP 13 inch and cannot connect to my home wireless network. On the top bar and when I put the mouse cursor on the AirPort icon it says "No AirPort card installed". Shouldn't the card be pre-installed by Apple though? Currently I'm using an ethernet cable to connect to the internet which works fine.
    Thanks very much in advance!

    Open Utilities/System Profiler and in the left column click on Airport (in the Network section), does it show any details for the hardware or is it blank ?
    Try doing a Parameter RAM reset - hold down command/option/p/r keys at start up and wait for three chimes before releasing the keys.
    If still no joy then you need to take it back to Apple for them to check it out.

  • Subtle Vibration on MBP 13 inch

    Hello ALL,
    I have a unibody MBP 13 inch with 160GB 5400 RPM hitachi HDD. Off Late I've noticed a sutble vibration from the palm rests on either side of the track pad. It can be felt by placing the fingers on the palm rest (however not so much when you place the lower palm on the palm rest while typing). the vibration is persistent and continuous.
    Does anyone have similar problems?
    Please let me know.
    Thanks.

    Wrong, wrong, and wrong.
    (note that this picture is of the macbook upside down, so that is why the super drive is on the left and the ports are on the right)
    So as you can see by the picture, the hard drive is under the right palm rest and the fan is at the TOP CENTER of the unit.
    Using the AC adapter with 2 or 3 prongs or even the battery has nothing to do with this. Its a matter of the hard drive functioning properly.
    If this was a 7200RPM drive then I would say this is normal, but not for a 5400RPM drive.
    I have the (upgraded) 320GB drive which is 5400 RPM and there is VERY little vibration.

  • Anyone recommend MBP 17-inch?

    I'm currently a windows/unix user and I've been thinking of migrating to mac for everyday use. I'm in the market for a laptop so I'm currently looking at the MBP 17-inch. My main concern is that there seems to be a lot of hardware issues with the MBP. Are hardware problems really all that common for Apple products? I've always thought that Apple had a good quality control program. If you could provide any perspective I would really appreciate it.
    Thanks

    I've been using PCs since DOS 3.0 on my 80x286. I've never liked macs. They've always been slow, too "user-friendly" (which, to me, was always code for "inflexible"), with inadequate software. All through elementary and middle school, all the schools I went to had apples and they were constantly breaking down and generally performing badly. My PC could do just about anything I wanted it to, so I shied away from macs for a long time.
    I got started with a G5 when I was a production office coordinator for a major feature film. I was sweating bullets about sharing crew and vendor lists, call sheets, and other information over the network. In a previous life I had been a network administrator for a small startup in Massachusetts, and the windows network never worked consistently. We were constantly rebooting, plugging and unplugging cables, uninstalling and reinstalling drivers... So I was getting ready for more of the same when I set up the osx network in our production office.
    Despite a heavy userload and a lot of different flavors of laptops coming through the office, everything worked flawlessly. The windows machines people brought in even worked better with the osx machines than with other windows machines in the office.
    That was when I decided to give OSX a try.
    My apple 17" laptop is the first apple I've ever owned and it is far and away the most reliable, easy to use, and problem-free computer I have ever laid hands on.
    The 17" is not exactly a joy to carry around with me all day, but as a portable workstation it has been fantastic.
    I'm even running xp on it, too, so that I don't have to give up all the software I've been using all these years.
    Anyway. Highly recommend it.

  • 2011 MBP 13-inch 2.3 GHz CPU Temp Issue

    Hi everyone!
    I am new both to the Apple forum and the Mac. Two days ago, I purchased my very first Mac--MBP 13-inch 2.3 GHz (not customized or anything).  I've been playing around with the different applications and researching on different forums about CPU temp.  In a quiet room, I can hear the low buzz/hum of the computer. I thought MBPs were pretty much silent? Sorry if this is a silly question, but I just want to make sure there's nothing wrong. 
    On average, CPU temp is around 49-55 degrees Celsius with the fan running just under 2000 RPM which is fine. When I tried recording my voice through the built-in mic on GarageBand, after about 10 minutes, I heard the fan go on full blast. I checked iStat Nano, and the CPU temp was 91 degrees Celsius with the fans running from 6200 - 7000 RPM. Is this normal? I had Firefox, TweetDeck, and iChat running in the background.  Should I only have GarageBand open and nothing else in order for the CPU temp to not become as hot? 91 degrees Celsius is around 195 F so that scared me, and my computer was super hot combined with a really loud fan. Should I call Apple for support?
    Thank you so much for your help, everyone!

    I love Firefox, its the absolute greatest browser in the world I use it myself.
    However Firefox and Chrome both are HUGE memory hogs, so you have to be a bit more conservative using them with other applicaiton's open. Occassionally in Firefox you may have to close all open windows and create a new one just to flush the RAM. Because everytime you open a new tab, it asks OS X for more memory and then doesn't give it back.
    Also you must remember you bought a integrated graphics computer, meaning the CPU (processor) also does the graphics. This is double duty work the CPU must do and therefore twice the heat in one location.
    There is a huge thread on these forums about the overheating 13" MacBook Pro's, perhaps if your a power user or a heavy multi-tasker that your should consider returning that machine complaining about the heat and get a 2.2 Ghz 15" MacBook Pro (or better) with the 1GB Radeon 6750M. It's a MUCH cooler machine and more powerful. I also advise the anti-glare high res screen so there are no reflections in the clasroom or at work etc.
    I think you have a 14 day return window.

  • Just bought 17" MBP with hi-rez screen but was misled

    Before I bought my MBP I asked the Apple dude at the store if the 17" MBP's have the new backlite LED screens...he even went and asked a couple of his buds and they all agreeded and he came back and said YES they are the backlite LED.
    So I get it home, fire it up and the rez is great but it's no brighter than my MBP 15"
    Whats the deal?
    Thanks. for any comments

    Not sure why they would tell you that, but a simple check of the tech specs page would confirm that the 17" MBPs do not have LED backlights:
    15-inch MacBook Pro
    15.4-inch (diagonal) _TFT *+LED backlit+* display_ with support for millions of colors; optional glossy widescreen display
    17-inch MacBook Pro
    17-inch (diagonal) _TFT display_ with support for millions of colors; optional glossy widescreen display
    Optional 17-inch (diagonal) _TFT widescreen display_ with support for millions of colors; optional glossy widescreen display.
