My MacBook i doing strange sounds!! need help!

Since I got this Mac on december of 2009, it has been doing this weird sound like if the cooling fan inside the computer was stopping cause' it touched something! what do you think I should do? What do you think it is?

You can download iStat Pro, which is a dashboard widget that will give you all kinds of information, including about your fan, so you can verify if it is a fan problem:

If it is your fan, you'll need to have it serviced.

  • This is detailed: I lost my touch pad scroll ability on my desktop when I installed Firefox, I am having a terrible time trying to sync my new Android tablet to my desktop, my desktop Firefox is acting very strangly (I need help trying to use it)

    My Vista Home Premium desktop has not used Firefox for a long time. I just loaded it as well as on my Honeycomb Android. The statement that I made pretty much says what my problem is. I can use both of them at the same time and use a router with the air Verizon card installed.

    I personally would not purchase either charger.  I have seen many posts on this forum complaining about 'inexpensive' chargers and batteries for Apple MBPs.  To purchase these 'knockoff' counterfeits is tantamount to throwing your money away.  They may be 'refurbished' by a third party (something Apple does not do with chargers) but that would indicate that they failed before.  Or they may be cheap imitations built to questionable standards.
    You have spent a lot of money on your MBP, do not let it suffer a malfunction just to save $50.  You may find that repairs might cost a lot more than that.  Buy a real one from Apple as Ralph suggests.
    Ciao.

  • Yosemite made my MacBook Pro so slow. Need help.

    I Upgraded my MBP (2012), from Mavericks to Yosemite and it slowed my computer down to the point where it became unusable.  I repaired the permissions, and even reinstalled Yosemite but it didn't help.  My MBP is crawling and I'm hoping someone can walk me through a solution.  Need help.
    SIgned,
    YoseMighty Slow

    Problem description:
    MacBook Pro (mid 2012) is running super slow since I upgraded to Yosemite.  Used CleanMyMac2 and freed up 22G.  Verified and repaired disk permissions.  Re-installed Yosemite and still, it is running dead slow.  Windows take between 45-60 seconds to open, files are slow to appear…generally just slow and unresponsive.

  • MacBook Pro Overheat, foriegn country, need help

    I have a MacBook Pro 15" the generation before the uni-body, with black keys. Right now I am in Brazil. And I have noticed that my Mac is overheating. There are a lot of factors that could be causing the problem and I do not know any ways of fixing it. SO I need help.
    First of all I am in Belo Horizante, and the temp outside is about in the 80's (F), I have a incase case on my MacBook. I am also charging my Mac through a foreign outlet that has a 220V output. I do have a travel surge protector that my charger runs through.
    I have iStat and my temps. are in the range of 97 degrees (Enclosure base) to 128 degrees (GPU diode). I downloaded smcFan Control and turned my fans up to 4000 RPM.
    My hypothesis is that the incase is causing some more than normal heat ( I just got it specifically for the trip), or that my Mac needs some cleaning of the fans and overall.
    So any advice on keeping my mac cooler?

    Given what you've reported there doesn't seem to be any reason to mess with the fans. They increase their speed automatically when needed.
    I would return the idle speed back to the 2000 RPM default in SMC FanControl, then uninstall SMC FanControl because it isn't really needed.

  • Whenever i try and send an imessage to someone that has an iphone it gets stuck at times and won't go through. I then have to send it as a basic text and then it will respond message failed to send what should i do when it does this i need help

    Whenever i try and send an imessage to someone that has an iphone it gets stuck at times and won't go through. I then have to send it as a basic text and then it will respond message failed to send what should i do when it does this i need help

    The use of iMessage depends on both the sender and the receiver having an active data connection. If either of the two connections are interrupted, the message can fail. The sending of an iMessage differs from the sending of an SMS, and if you are having SMS failures, that would be a carrier concern.

  • My macbook is completely crazy! (NEED HELP!!!)

    I am honestly frustrated and confused! I have a late 2011 macbook pro, (got it in August) 15", 8gb of ram, and an ugraded 750gb HDD. This morning it was working perfectly normal, then I take it to school and at school it was all messed up and now it is messed up as well!
    So this is what happens. I boot up the computer, takes a considerable amount of time... then my mac loads normally, and it seems all good. Then when I click something it goes crazy! What I mean by that is, the dock first disappears for about half a second, then reappears. Then it disappears and then the desktop background becomes gray with all the icons on the side (like windows the shortcuts on the actual desktop, not dock) are still there, and it flickers or more flashes then what happens and then what happens after 20 minutes or so the screen goes gray and shows the loading icon and thats it (plus the fan is going like crazy! For a while it wouldn't even start! I tried to boot it up in safe mode but it would go almost half way and then just shut down! Then i did the option + command + P + R and that brought me to disk utlility for a couple of times the verify didn't work, and stopped half way through, and the repair, but I kept on doing it and it said it's all good! So i reboot and same problem! Now I can't go back to that disk utility and when I started my mac again it does the flickery thing, then the gray screen but this time it loads and then it flickers an image of a desktop and goes straight to the screensaver... and I can't do anything about it, it's frozen on the screen saver! The screen saver doens't lag however, it acts normally! But if I click anything it sticks on the screen saver! I think the problem is the HDD, but I don't know! Can anyone help me?! Please!!!!!

    My first thought was the hard drive and OS has a built in Sudden Motion Sensor whcih will stop the hard drive heads from crashing into the platters when the computer is moved suddenly. This does work most of the time and could cause some of the tings you are seeing.
    But then after reading more of your first post it seems your system and drive is doing some very strange things.
    It would be best to first take it into an Apple Genius Bar and have it looked at. They can run tests on it and since it is still in the original 1 year warranty this should not cost you anything even if something needs to be replaced.
    You can also run the Apple Hardware Test on it your self by connecting it to the Net by Ethernet cable and booting holding down the d key or the Command+d keys. That will boot the computer from the Apple internet servers and load the AHT.
    Good Luck.

  • IMac or Macbook Pro Can not Decide Need Help

    The iMac or Mac Pro I can't decide which is the best one to get and I need to get a
    good answer before next Thursday. The 24" iMac with extreme Intel processor or Macbook Pro 17" with 2.6 Intel Processor. I'm into Graphic Design in the winter months and want something that doesn't crash when I'm designing websites with dreamweaver. I need to know from you professionals which is better. Also this will be my first MAC. Thanks for any help you can provide.

    Newbie,
    It really comes down to your desire for a fast Desktop, or a fast portable. Only you can decide whether or not you want to "go portable." Either one would suite your professional needs, and do so extremely well. And Macs simply don't just "crash" (not if they are working as they should). My well-over-1-year-old 17" Macbook Pro has never been shut down, and I rarely restart it. No crashes, no problems. I have seen my wife's 3-year-old iBook with an "uptime" of over 160 days (that's almost 6 months with no shutdown or restart!!!). Also no crashes, no problems.
    The 24" iMac is simply... stunning. And, with the 2.8 Gig Core2Duo Extreme, it should really rock speed-wise. But, it would remain in one place. The benefits of the iMacs are (obviously) the larger displays, larger hard drive capacities, and sometimes better performance (as in the case of the 24" w/ Core2Duo Extreme).
    On the other hand, there's a lot to be said about being portable. "Going portable" is potentially a complete paradigm shift, as far as how one works. My Macbook Pro goes with me almost all of the time, and I can use it for work or play at a moment's notice. I have a really nice dual-display setup at home, which has (sadly) never been used since I moved to a portable; I simply can't be bothered being tied to a single location to use a computer anymore.
    In the end, the decision is yours. Either way, you'll be happy.
    Scott

  • Strange scenario - need help

    I have Skype on my Windows 8.1 laptop and on my Android tablet
    When I use the tablet for skype everything works great - except I am unable to create group calls which is absolutely eseential for my work.
    Therefore when I need to do group calls, I either get someone else to create the group or I try to use skype on the laptop.
    However this is when the problems start.
    Two common people I talk with are CJ and NT.
    CJ uses Skype on a Mac Laptop.
    NT uses skype on a Windows 8.1 laptop.
    * If I have a call with CJ on the tablet, everything works 100% fine
    * If I have a call with NT on the tablet, everything works 100% fine
    * If I have a call with CJ on the laptop, his sounds randomly cuts out (usually in 3-5 seconds blocks, maybe every 5-10 minutes)
    * If I have a call with NT on the latop, everything works 100% fine
    So... 
    * I thought the problem was with my audio output - but I never have the problem with NT?
    * I thought the problem was with CJs microphone - but I never have a problem when I talk with him on the tablet?
    I've tried...
    * Ehanced audio / non-enhanced audio
    * Re-install drivers
    * Headset / no headset
    It's really frustrating! Now my tablet is basically stuck as my skype phone however this means I cant do group calls which I really need.
    Please, anyone, help me solve this dilemna!
    I use skype every day.

    I've delved further into this testing am starting to see a trend...
    Other contacts of mine CC and HK are boths Mac users and they have similar problems to CJ mentioned above when on the laptop but never on the tablet.
    Meanwhile another contact AT is a windows user and they never have problems on both the tablet and the laptop.
    Therefore, the trend so far is that if I talk to a Mac User on my Windows 8.1 laptop I have audio problems, meanwhile every other scenario works fine!!
    P.S. These are regular contacts of mine which I NEVER had any problem on my Windows 7 laptop... wish I still had that laptop to re-test but I gave it away...

  • MacBook Pro wont stop rebooting, need help please

    Ok so my story is that I bought a used 2008-2009 MacBook Pro. It was running mountain lion, I tried to restore it to factory settings to undo the "open to all access" option. Since I didn't have the mountain DVD at that time I restarted it and did the command-r. Now however, it will not stop rebooting, it'll chime and reach the grey screen apple logo with the little wheel but then restart and again, reach the same screen then restart again, and again etc etc. Now since I am completely new to Mac, I had no idea about time capsule, so and can't use that either. I have tried repeatedly to use the command-r action but it won't work. It just doesn't wanna boot up from the HD. I am think of either acquiring the leopard DVD, or taking it to a tech and probably waste even more money. Is there anything else I can do, any suggestion will be appreciated.

    Take it to the nearest Apple Store. They can help, and there is no charge if you don't need to replace hardware (which you shouldn't).

  • Strange Behavior - need help!

    Okay,
    I'm running an iBook 600, 10.3.9 on a dial-up connection via the built in modem and seem to be having a very weird connection issue.
    When connected, which is easily attained, etc., I have email and ftp capabilities but absolutely NO web (nothing via Safari, Netscape, Firefox or Explorer). No iTune's connection or Software Update. Has anyone else experienced this? If so, how can I get it fixed? Does my modem string need to be updated/fixed? Or is finally breaking down and getting my dsl installed in the house so I go wireless my only solution?
    Btw, all works just fine via wireless connection so I know it's not the web browsers.
    Thanks!...
    Kari.

    Eek! There have been people complaining about disabled dialup modems after moving up a major release of MacOS X, but usually it is about the modem not working at all because of a driver being changed. Your problem is quite weird.
    It may well be your modem initialization string or a driver, but everything would seem to argue that the breakdown is at a higher level. Otherwise, why would FTP work?
    So, try deleting your network and modem preferences and repairing permissions on your hard drive first. That unfortunately is the desperation answer, but it does in fact work quite often.
    Sorry not to be able to help you more. You probably need to find a dialup modem expert, if such a person even exists nowadays.
    Good luck.

  • Week Old MacBook Air - Random Kernel Panics - NEED HELP!

    I have had this laptop for a little over a week now and continuously keep having KPs, what seem to be random and not tied to any specific program, just seems to happen while I am download a file from the internet. Frustrating because I can not even download the update form 10.8.0 -> 10.8.2!!!
    I have done the following:
         -Reset PRAM
         -Reset SMC
         -Restored from SCRATCH
         -Disconnected all peripherals
         -Tested RAM with memtest (OK)
         -Tested HDD with DiskUtility (OK)
    I would just bring it back to an Apple store, but I live in the Dominican Republic and picked it up while I was passing through Miami.
    Below is the log form the most recent KP.

    After doing an extensive Hardware Test, I believe that I found the culprit. Looks like my "brand new" Macbook Air came with a faulty hdd. Seems to me as if Apple is starting to cut corners and be the Apple of old... Using their image to demand premium price and maximize profit while progressively using cheaper and cheaper parts within their products.
    1. You clearly have no understanding of statistics and failure rate.  Even a company with the most efficient and best products will have a certain rate of failure (even some products arriving dead on arrival), regardless of how much they do or do not spend on components and quality control.
    2.  Apple doesn't manfacture the hard drives.
    3.  How do you know how much they spend on parts?

  • Macbook pro retina airplay disappearing, need help

    I just bought a macbook pro retina and an apple tv. So, this all week i was doing some search and reading forums but i`ve never seen anybody have this problem yet. I can use my apple tv with my Ipad and Iphone perfectly, but my macbook pro refuses to work. My airplay sign in the right-top side of the screen is keep disappearing and i can`t see my apple tv there. They are both connected to same Wi-Fi and i restarted both, I reset all my settings on both, vs.. Nothing changed so far. My macbook pro and apple tv is up-to-date too. So is there anybody can help me ?

    You are still under warranty.  Call Apple Care. Make sure you get a case number as all repairs have an additional 90 days of warranty. 
    #1 - You have 14 days from the date of purchase to return your computer with no questions asked.
    #2 - You have 90 days of FREE phone tech support.
    #3 - You have the standard one year Apple warranty.
    #4 - If you've purchased an AppleCare Protection Plan, your warranty last for 3 years.   You can obtain AppleCare anytime up to the first year of the purchase of your computer.
    Take FULL advantage of your warranty.  Posting on a message board should be done as a last resort and if you are out of warranty or Apple Care has expired.

    Hi my macbook pro fell of the bed, its still working fine but I tried to save but unfortunately the charger itself got damaged an the part to plug it in its not charging anymore. the charge got stuck in it and it got a little dent what do I do?

    Unfortunatly you'll have to take it to Apple and have it repaired. Can't really make sense of your post, but I'm guessing that either the charger or the the charging port will need to be replaced. Possibly both.
