My Macbook Pro makes cracking sounds

HI! (sorry for my bad english)
When my Macbook pro is warm (normal operating temperture), it begins to crack, but not everytime, only most of the time. That appears when I´m touching/normally using/scrolling the Touch Pad or touch the surface right beside the Touch Pad. (Alway with only little pressure) Also it appears when I touch the small surface between Touch Pad and keyboard. I think it sounds not healthy. What do you think, is this normal? Should I contact Apple???
Would appreciate any help.

Call Apple. They are nice people. They will at least confirm that it is with normal operational parameters or it isn't. It never hurts to ask.

  • NEW MacBook Pro Retina cracking sound problem

    I recently bought a MacBook Pro Retina after using a MacBook Pro for a year.  From Day One my MacBook Pro Retina makes a cracking sound from the body on the right side. not acceptable from such a expensive machine. Apple would not replace it! Now I don't know what to expect, but I never expected this. Laptops worth 400bucks are not this cracky. After browsing through i see im not the only one with this problem. The local apple service center said they have checked it everything is fine and it is not damaged, it was a manufacturers defect. Why should I be the victim here?

    Resetting the NVRAM/PRAM didn't work. The crackling sound is especially bad around the 4:00 mark in the following Killzone Shadow Fall preview:
    http://www.engadget.com/2013/02/20/watch-the-ps4s-killzone-shadow-fall-shared-di rect-from-the-con/
    Several songs in the iTunes store, when previewing, also have the same crackling issue.
    I'm just glad it's not crackling for every single video or song, at the very least.

  • Please help, my macbook pro makes beeping sounds.

    My macbook pro keeps making a beeping sound while the sound is turned on, does anyone know why and what to do about it?

  • My macbook pro makes a sound when switched on. It's brand new. Is that supposed to happen?, My macbook pro makes a sound when switched on. It's brand new. Is that supposed to happen?

    It's been about a month since I started using this product. Can anyone tell me who I can contact? I'm lost. Also, will the repair be chargeable? It's a new laptop.

    If it is a single "boong", that is part of the startup.  Hardware is checked at system boot, and a single boong means all is well.
    3 short beeps in a sequence means memory-issues, and other sounds mean other bad things.

    You should take it to an Apple store or an AASP (Authorized Apple Service Provider) Carefully inspect the hinge joint and make sure there is no debris that you can see, you can try carefully sliding some sticky tape thru the joint to clear any loose stuff out. But this sounds like there might be more going on here, and the hinge is something that you do not want to fool with.

  • My MacBook Pro makes a beep sound every few minutes.  Why?

    My new MacBook Pro makes a beep sound every few minutes.  Why?

    If you have a Seagate 500 GB 7200 RPM drive model ST9500420AS or ST9500420ASG, there is a widely reported problem with MacBooks that causes intermittent clicks and beeps.  If that is your scenario, google for details.

  • Why does my MacBook Pro make background music and video quieter when I am on FaceTime?

    Why does my MacBook Pro make background music and video quieter when I am on FaceTime? When my girlfriend and I are trying to watch a movie on Netflix together while on FaceTime my MacBook Pro always decreases the volume of any background sound on my computer so I can barely hear it. Is there a way to fix this? Thank you!

    Have the same issue too. Apple can you please change this annoying feature. You are making long distance relationships more difficult.
    I like how Facetime was with the old iOS, where nothing was dimmed. OR at least maybe if you could give users the option to turn on or off dimming of facetime.

  • Hello, my 2012 MacBook pro makes a clicking noise

    Hello, my 2012 MacBook pro makes a clicking noise in the bottom right of my computer. The empty space below the keyboard where you are supposed to rest your hands. I press it and it sounds like something is snapping almost.

    You should also ask this in the MacBook Pro forum. This is the forum for the 13” white and black plastic MacBooks that were discontinued in 2010. You should also post this question there to increase your chances of getting an answer.

  • Macbook pro makes a lot of noise when its is on.

    Macbook Pro makes a lot of noise when its being used. It is the sound of the processor and it gets very hot at the bottom of the laptop. Any sugestions for why this is happening? Any solutions??

    Hi p,
    The CPU doesn't make noise, so it's probably fans you're hearing, which would correspond with the heat you're feeling. Read this link to see if there's a process running too high:

  • MacBook Pro has no sound at all. Called Apple and they said to reinstall OS X.

    I have recently discovered that my MacBook Pro has no sound except for the startup chime. I called Apple and they told me to reinstall OS X because something went wrong in the OS. Is there any other way to fix this?

    That's a really overly simplistic answer to your problem. Re-installing OS X doesn't always fix every problem. Yes, it might in your case, but it might not. Are you still under warranty? Either way, I'd take it into your local Apple Store and show them the problem and let them fix it. If the system has to be installed anew, so be it. But rule out other problems first.
    Before you do anything, make sure that you have a back-up of your data, applications, etc. If you don't already have a back-up scheme, get an external hard drive and use Time Machine to back up your computer. Then take it into the Apple Store.
    Good luck,
    Clinton

  • I am getting no sound on my macbook pro. The sound does not play when I plug in headphones either.  I have tried making it louder quieter, restarting my computer, HELP!

    I am getting no sound on my macbook pro. The sound does not play when I plug in headphones either.  I have tried making it louder quieter, restarting my computer, HELP!

    There are many possible causes for this issue. Take each of the following steps that you haven't already tried.
    1. Start with the steps recommended in this support article. Don't skip any of the steps. It's the starting point for further efforts to solve the problem.
    2. If your model has an audio-out (headphone) port, and anything is plugged in, unplug it before putting the system to sleep.
    3. If you've installed something called "Memory Clean" or any other third-party software that is supposed to "clean" or "purge" memory automatically, remove it according to the developer's instructions and reboot. You should do that even if the software is not causing the problem, because it's useless.
    4. If you've installed an equalizer called "Boom" or anything similar, update or delete it and reboot.
    5. If an AirPlay device is selected for sound output from iTunes (or from other applications via third-party software such as "Airfoil"), deselect it.
    6. Launch the application "Audio MIDI Setup" by entering the first few letters of its name in a Spotlight search and selecting it in the results (it should be at the top.) Select the Output tab. If the Mute boxes are checked, uncheck them. Move the Volume sliders all the way to the right.
    7. If a red light is coming from the audio-out port, the internal switch is stuck in the position for digital output. You may be able to free it by inserting and removing a mini-stereo jack of the proper size. Inserting any kind of tool in the port may cause damage that won't be covered by your warranty.
    If there's no red light, the switch may still be stuck in the headphone position. Try to free it the same way.
    8. Disconnect all wired peripherals except keyboard and mouse, if applicable. If more than one display is connected, disconnect all extra ones. Reboot and test.
    9. Boot in safe mode. Don't log in; just reboot as usual when the login screen appears. When you do, make sure the words "Safe Boot" do not appear in the login screen. If they do, the system is still in safe mode and sound won't work.
    10. Reset the NVRAM.
    11. Reset the SMC.
    12. Reinstall OS X after backing up all data. For a possible shortcut, see this thread.
    13. Make a "Genius" appointment at an Apple Store.

  • My macbook pro makes erratic beeping noises

    My macbook pro makes a distinctive, 3 note beeping noise. It repeats at uneven intervals. I went to Console App and saw the following messages repeated at the exact times these beeps happened, so I imagine they are related. I just don't know what these messages mean, nor how to fix them. Can anyone help?
    Here are the messages:
    8/6/13 8:12:08.420 PM coreaudiod[116]: Disabled automatic stack shots because audio IO is active

  • Why does the MacBook Pro make a loud heat noise?

    So, when I was playing a game called "Modern Combat Domination" my MacBook Pro make a very loud heat noise? Does that mean I should stop playing the game? I worried. Thank You.

    That means your fan(s) sped up to dispose of the excess heat generated by playing the game. It's a sign that your machine is taking care of itself properly.

    macbook pro making whining sound from left side,

    Time for a trip to the Apple store genius bar.  I suspect that your MBP is still under warranty, so use it to your advantage.
