MBA Fan after Mountain Lion

I have a 2011 11 inch Mac Air, after a recent Moutain Lion upgrade, I realized the fan turns on within 15 minutes of usage, was not the case before. Any ideas?

I took mine to the Genius and he replaced the fan.

  • MBA crashes after Mountain Lion upgrade

    I was finally able to convince my friend that he needed to upgrade his Snow Leopard OS to Mountain Lion on his MacBook Air (purchased in the last two years) because he was running into various problems.  I've been using ML on my MBP with few problems since its first release.  To my chagrin, his machine is now crashing daily.  Not just a kernel panic, but full "screen goes black" crash.  We went through the normal diagnostics, including basic stuff like permission repairs, resetting PRAM, iCloud settings in Mail, etc. Problem persists.  He's planning on going to a Genius bar but I'm hoping someone here might be able to help in the meantime.

    I have developer's tool that can provide that but he's not authorized to use it.  Is there a hidden utility or location where crash reports are stored?

    After Mountain Lion install, my MacBook Pro's fan is running non-stop and you can hear the insides working extra hard. Is this normal? It's very loud and annoying?

    You actually can.  If you call in to apple and ask for lion, they will email you an app store code that can be redeemed.

  • Slow internet after mountain lion download

    web pages open slowly or not at all after mountain lion download

    I'm having the same problem but only at home with a slow internet service.  At work with faster internet my macbook pro works fine.  I wonder if Mountain Lion requires some minimum internet speed?  Our old macbook pro (not using Mountain Lion) still works fine with our slow home internet.  This change happened when I installed Mountain Lion.  Also I can boot from by back up disk and bypass Mountain Lion and work with my slow internet at home. ???

  • After Mountain Lion update, i can't access Facebook and Hotmail websites

    When I was with the OSX Lion, everything was fine.
    After Mountain Lion update, i can't open Facebook and Hotmail websites.
    I already reinstalled the Mountain Lion, but the error still happens. The only way to open these websites is with the private navigation.
    Please, help me.

    From your Safari menu bar (top of your screen) click Safari > Preferernces then select the Privacy tab.
    Click:  Remove All Website Data
    Quit then relaunch Safari to test.
    If you still have problems with Facebook, go to the Facebook page then click the downward facing arrow to the right of Home then click Account Settings.
    Select Security on the left then click Secure Browsing.
    Select the box next to: Browse Facebook on a secure connection (https) when possiblle then click Save Changes.

  • After Mountain Lion download, FaceTime is not working anymore. Any ideas?

    After Mountain Lion download, FaceTime is not working anymore. Any ideas?

    I have reinstalled mountain Lion again . This time, Facetime works when somebody calls me, and I can do calls from my Mac again. But the problem was still that I was not able to call my iPad, what I was able to do with Lion (I had one Apple-ID and two call adresses). The solution was this time to generate a second Apple-ID from the Facetime in my Mac (this doesn't affect your main Apple-ID, it's only used for Facetime). Now, it works!  ;-)

  • Macbook sluggush / freezes after Mountain Lion

    I bought my Macbook Pro 13" in late Fall of 2010.
    I've read several posts on here about computers locking up after Mountain Lion upgrade.  But most of those issues involved the computer completely locking up.  In my case I get the spinning wheel of death, but the trackpad is still responsive.  I can "Force Quit" the open programs (usually) but it is very sluggish.  It boots slow and shuts down really slowly.  The sluggishness is intermitent thought and I can't put my finger on what is happening.  It reminds me of my old PC days when you would get a virus.
    Can you point me in the right direction for diagnosis that I can run myself?
    Or do I need to head to the Genius bar? 
    What has changed in my usage lately?
    Essentailly the same type of usage since I purchased the machine.  Lightroom, Photoshop, Illustrator, Chrome, Safari and Mail.
    I recently "upgraded" to Mountain Lion from the app store a few days after it became available.
    To my knowledge, all updates have been installed.
    My Macbook has been running really hot (too hot to sit directly on your lap when wearing shots).  This happened prior to my upgrade and I took it to the Apple store and they essentially told me not to worry about it.  They ran some tests and said things looked fine.
    Thanks!

  • Problem with mail after mountain lion install

    Mail has become sluggish to locking up after Mountain Lion install.  I get the color wheel each time I start typing in an address to send an email.  I also get the wheel when i am typing an address or name in any web page in Safari.  Is this a Mail Problem or an Address Book problem?

    It sounds like your computer needs to be cleaned up. Have your repaired permissions or cleared caches since you got the computer. Often times when upgrading operating systems permissions get screwed up and it causes issues.  Go to disk utility in your "other" folder in applications.  Select disk utility, then on the left hand side choose Mac HD then click REPAIR permissions in the center section. Wait for it to finish, restart your computer, then test.

  • After mountain lion all calendar items are duplicated in outlook

    After mountain lion all calendar items are duplicated in outlook. Any idea why this might be.

    I'd keep them in folders - in your user account section, then just link to the folder with an alias and not keep the actual files and folders out on or in Desktop Finder area.
    There is method to madness underneath, most things can be found from top level
