My macbook pro starts to get really hot and starts to really lag

I have been having my mac book pro for about two, three months and when i start using it, it starts to heat up and starts to lag. My friends been having a regular macbook for about a year and its actually cooler and faster than my mac book pro. Is there anybody that can help to solve this problem?

first remove the battery and power adapter connection, and hold down the power button for about 5-6sec, and but back only battery and when you turn on again hold the power button for about 5-6sec, and also i suggest you to dont use in on your lap, and beds, this cause the issue of heating, if still does not works then i would suggest you to take this system to Apple Authorised Service Center, and you ask them to re reseate the logic board with heat sink paste.
after collecting from them keep under observation for atleast 2-3days, once again don't use in on your lap, and beds.

  • Macbook Pro Retina 13" Gets Very Hot

    Hi, I noticed my Macbook Pro Retina 13" gets very hot after 30 minutes of usage, practically "burning" on my thigh (it left burning mark a few times actually, especially in the summer). I usually put a book between the laptop and me to prevent the heat. Is there a better way?

    What are you doing on your MacBook when it gets hot? I have a retina and it gets hot when I play games like Team Fortress 2 or Garry's Mod, watching videos on youtube, and using the iTunes visualizer. What's odd is it doesn't get hot when I watch movies on iTunes. If it's getting hot just sitting around, you may have a problem that needs to be check out as soon as possible. I had a 13" mid 2012 non-retina pro that had three logic boards replaced in less than a year of purchase. Every time the board was failing, it would freeze sometime after it was put to sleep and it would get really hot and the fan would be screaming trying to keep up. Then it would freeze as I'm using it. The screen would flash pixels of all colors in random spots all around the screen. If Apple didn't cover the repairs, I would have paid $530 per repair.

    I have to desagree its not normal !!! be advised

    Open up activity monitor and under all process, see how much dock is using.  highlight it and hit quit process.
    since you're already at activity monitor, hit quit process on anything else using more than 10% of your CPU's resources.
    see if your Retina runs cooler once you've done that.
    good luck.

  • Why does my macbook pro, snow leopard get so hot so quickly?

    why does my macbook pro, snow leopard get so hot so quickly?
    Can someone give helpful suggestions on solving this problem?
    Thanks!

    Open Activity Monitor in the Utilities folder.  Select All Processes from the Processes dropdown menu.  Click twice on the CPU% column header to display in descending order.  If you find a process using a large amount of CPU time (>=70,) then select the process and click on the Quit icon in the toolbar.  Click on the Force Quit button to kill the process.  See if that helps.  Be sure to note the name of the runaway process so you can track down the cause of the problem.

  • Macbook Pro Late 2008 gets real hot when viewing Flash Content.  Does anyone have a solution?

    Macbook Pro Late 2008 gets hot, fans kick on at 6200 rpm, and CPU usage of about 65% when viewing Flash Content.  I've been to the Adobe Forum, but saw no solution for this.  Already unchecked Hardware Acceleration.  I had motherboard replaced just a week ago, so that's not the issue.  I hope someone can help.

    MDhennin wrote:
    Yes it was happening before the logicboard was replaced.  I'm up to date with Flash and Software Updates too.  Macbook can handle everything but Flash content.  So I assume its related to some kind of incompatability.  Not sure though.  I have come across others who have the same issue.
    Ok, dumb question on my part, but did any of those others find a solution? If not, what have they, and you, tried? If you don't mind, posting a link to content which causes this might be helpful (I don't watch a lot of Flash-based video, but I've never had an issue like that on my early 2008/less able MBP . . .).

  • My Macbook Pro 15 inch gets super hot when surfing the web... What is wrong?

    My Macbook Pro that I got in April this year gets superhot when I'm surfing the web, especially when I'm using Safari. Also when I'm using photoshop, which I can partly understand since it's a heavy program, but it gets so hot that it burns my hand if I touch the underneath, and that can't be right, can it? This is despite having it on a flat surface.
    Also, I do not know much about RAM and stuff, but when I'm just surfing the web on Safari it uses 1 GB of the RAM memory, and I've tried with Firefox and it uses 500 mb. I don't even think photoshop uses that much when I'm editing big files. What is normal, and can that have something with my computer getting as hot as it gets? It also gets really, really loud.

    Install istat menus:

    Open Activity Monitor to ALL PROCESSES and set CPU to display values from high to low.
    When the MBP gets hot, post images of both istat pro temperature display and Activity Monitor for evaluation:

  • Why is my new Macbook Pro Retina Display getting so hot?

    I've had my Macbook Pro Retina Display for nearly a week and it works like a dream and I love it.
    However it does get rather hot, around the F keys it's almost too hot to touch, all I use are internet applications and occasionally Spotify and iTunes so it's not like I'm constantly running hefty software.
    I just wanted to check that this is normal as this is my first Macbook, I've been a PC user for 10 years.
    Any help would be appreciated.

    Download iStat Pro and report back with the temp readings.

  • 15" MacBook Pro Power Adapter gets very hot.

    I have a 15" MacBook Pro that I am using the older charger with the adapter from Apple.  The adapter is getting to a measured 137.9 degrees, a.k.a. HOT.  Anybody have any thoughts on this?

    A lot of people report this. Try turning the connector 180 degrees and cleaning the terminals. Apparently that helps in most cases

  • Macbook Pro Retina 15" Getting Very Hot

    My macbook pro retina display 15 inch intel i7, 512gb flash hard drive 16 gb computer is getting hot. When playing a simple flash game like pocket planes (not in fullscreen), and without the battery plugged in, the computer gets to 64 degrees celsius, and the area near the battery plug location gets extremely hot to the touch. While playing youtube videos and such, the computer also gets hot, but generally reaches around 48 degrees, and it will not cool further. Is this normal? I just bought it 3 days ago and the salesperson told me that it would not get as hot as the 13 inch late 2012 macbook pro. Any ideas? Because it is very similar as heat, even though the older model was hotter.

    I have the similar issue on my MBP 15" 2012. The top left corner area gets very hot after watch video for a little while.
    I think it's the video card that is overheated. My current solution is to use a laptop cooler underneath my MBP. It does help reduce the lock ups in daily uses.
    Does any one know how to fix it?

  • I want to factory reset my MacBook Pro to delete EVERYTHING in there and start from scratch but it won't work! HELPP!

    I have  a MacBook Pro and I have A LOT of files in there which I don't need anymore. And it's too much to sit and do it one by one so I want to completely reset it to factory settings. I tried booting it from the OS X CD by holding C during startup but it won't work. It just gets stuck on the white or gray screen with the apple logo. Nothing else. I'm assuming that it's because the software version on the Mac is 10.6.8 but the boot disk I'm using is 10.6.3? But I'm not sure.
    I also tried booting the CD with holding the option key and choosing the disk, same problem.
    Opening Disk Utility while regularly logged in, won't let me delete.
    Also tried changing the setting of what to boot in on startup, still gets frozen on the apple logo.
    Please what can I do to fix this and delete everything?
    Thank you in advance!

  • Macbook pro is not getting turn on and further when i press power button the green orange light suddenly changes to green again, moreover battery meter is not working

    Hi
    Last night my macbook pro gets off automatically when battery gets empty and in the morning it isn't turning on. When i connect the charger, the light on the charger turns green to orange (showing that it is charging) but when i press the power button it suddenly changes to green again. I thought there must not be any connection between the charger light and the power button. And battery meter was running fine.
    When it tried this again and again the charger light disappear and battery meter also stops working, when i clearly observe it there is a very dim green light in the charger (not observable in the light) and the laptop is still not showing any change.
    please help!

  • When i turn my macbook pro on I get a green apple then just a white screen

    When I turn my macbook pro on I get a green and white lined apple then just a white screen anyone help please ?

    Hey there Petecaswell,
    It sounds like you are seeing a green Apple logo, and then a white screen before the computer boots to your user. I would start by updating your computer:
    OS X: Updating OS X and Mac App Store apps
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1338
    Then if the issue persists, I would perform a PRAM reset:
    OS X Mavericks: Reset your computer’s PRAM
    http://support.apple.com/kb/PH14222
    Shut down your Mac.
    Locate the following keys on the keyboard: Option, Command (⌘), P, and R. You will need to hold these keys down simultaneously in step 4.
    Turn on your Mac.
    Immediately press and hold the Option-Command-P-R keys. You must press this key combination before the gray screen appears.Continue holding the keys down until your Mac restarts, and you hear the startup sound for the second time.
    Release the keys.
    Resetting PRAM may change some system settings and preferences. Use System Preferences to restore your settings.
    Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.
    All the best,
    Sterling

  • Macbook Pro getting really hot and loud under stress.

    To put it simply, i use my macbook pro for game development. Some of the programs/games i run on it are high quality and make my macbook pro (with a 750M installed) incredibly hot. Judging from the app (iStat) the average RPM's of the fans are around 2000rpm. When i have to render something, the macbook starts to get really really hot, and the fans start getting really loud. I checked the fans RPM and it shows that they are going at 6000rpm.
    The average temperature when not doing things of the CPU and other components is around 35-50 degrees celcius. When i'm working and it has to render something, and i have to play/test my creation the temperatures go up to around 90 degrees celcius.
    Is this safe? I don't want the inside of my brand new laptop to melt under the stress. Keep in mind, i bought one of these because it was suggested that mac's are the better option for graphics and design rather than PC.
    If you look at the picture and see that my OS is not Yosemite, that is because i've seen many bad reviews that it can cause overheating. I'm trying to prevent that as much as possible with the workload i have to work with.
    Thanks for any help possible.
    My Specs = http://i.imgur.com/fIGlzcZ.png

    I just got mine a week or two ago and I also have noticed how loud and hot mine gets. Mine also has the GT 750. The heat is normal enough but how loud it gets is very annoying.
    I think I know why its so loud but cant say for sure. I think its one of those fans on the gpu with side fins rather than a normal fan. Ive had graphics cards before with those fans and they are louder than the normal fans when under load. Now I go for a card that has a couple of larger "normal fans" to keep it cool. Also these side fin fans would be better for a laptop as they will shoot the hot air directly out the back.
    Im still not sure why the fan spins so fast when playing a simple game. Its understandable with a more demanding game.
    Hopefully you know what I mean though im not explaining it that well.

  • Macbook Pro 17 (early 2009) gets really hot and MagSafe Charger.

    My Macbook Pro 17 (early 2009) just recently started getting VERY hot after about 15 minutes of normal use. Even hotter faster with fan blowing like crazy when using programs such as quicktime (recording). According to my Mac HD, I have 168 GB available out of 285 GB capacity. The laptop gets very hot especially in the top left corner area around where the charger plugs in. And yes it is on flat surface. Any ideas on why this is doing this?
    On top of the laptop getting hot, the original charger that came with it doesnt charge all the time. The white box where the AC plug is gets very hot as well. I bought a new MagSafe charger (the new "L" type) literally a year ago and the box on this one also gets VERY hot and the connector with LED light (part that connects to laptop) get EXTREMELY hot. Any help would be appreciated. My apple care is up and I think its rediculous to have to pay for any type of support now. Thanks.
