Why is my MacBook overheating???

Hi!, i'd like to know why my MacBook is too hot by the beneath center-left side??? It makes a very strange soft sound .. the battery doesn't lasts more than 1 1/2 hrs... Plus i can hear more often how the ventilator spins.. which i believe its very odd because it the first time that happens ... Can someone answer me????? please .. Is this normal????? what can i do to solve this????

this is defently not normal. do u have ur CPU usage very high all the time? When it gets hot check the acitity monitor in the utility folder. If ur not doing a lot of heavy work and ur proccessor is in very high usage like 80 percent take it to an apple store to get it fixed or maybe get a replacement

  • Why is the CPU overheating?

    Hi!
    The CPU and Heat Sink A of my late 2008 MB (2 GHz Intel Core 2 Duo, 8GB RAM) are at 70-80 C about 80% of the time, although CPU and RAM usage is only at around 10% each. This causes the fan to run at ~6000 rpm. Why is the CPU overheating?
    The reason does not seem to be a sofware issue: The overheating occurs both in safe mode and as a new user (sometimes even right after starting the machine). I have no Adware installed. SMC Reset did not help. Energy usage settings are as efficient as possible. I deleted Adobe flash player items in the library. Spotlight indexing is not the issue.
    Therefore I suspect a hardware problem, although both AHT and the hardware test at the Genius bar did not show any problems. I have cleaned the fan and surrounding area thoroughly. The fan itself seems to be OK, since it correlates positively and perfectly with CPU temperature.
    Genius bar suggested to switch from 10.9.2. back to 10.6., but this is not a long-term option for me. I think would have to hand in the machine to a specialist for further analysis, or for examining/renewingthermal paste, but I do not want to spend too much money on the machine anymore.
    This is why I hope this forum has further advice!

  • WHY does my Macbook Pro (mid 2012) always slow to crawl when I wake it up and go online???

    I wake up my Macbook Pro (sweetly tell it that I love it)
    click on one of the 1-10 tabs I have open in Firefox or Safari
    Click on iTunes (open already) to play some tunes
    Wait
    Wait while the little ball spins as my browser thinks
    wait a bit more
    finally the tab I click on comes to the front, but the page takes 15-60 seconds to load
    I proceed feeling irritated
    A little help? 
    Specs:
    15" Mid 2012 Macbook Pro
    2.3ghz Intel Core i7 Processor
    500gb HD
    4gb RAM
    Etc.
    Apps that I am using:
    Safari
    Firefox
    iTunes
    Adobe Illustrator (occasionally)
    Lightroom 4 (occasionally)
    Why oh why must my Macbook Pro drive me insane by getting hung up for minutes on end???

    The next time you have the problem, note the exact time: hour, minute, second.
    If you have more than one user account, these instructions must be carried out as an administrator.
    Launch the Console application in any of the following ways:
    ☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
    ☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
    ☞ Open LaunchPad. Click Utilities, then Console in the icon grid.
    Make sure the title of the Console window is All Messages. If it isn't, select All Messages from the SYSTEM LOG QUERIES menu on the left.
    Scroll back in the log to the time you noted above. Select any messages timestamped from then until the end of the episode. Copy them (command-C) to the Clipboard. Paste (command-V) into a reply to this message.
    When posting a log extract, be selective. In most cases, a few dozen lines are more than enough.
    Please do not indiscriminately dump thousands of lines from the log into this discussion.
    Important: Some private information, such as your name, may appear in the log. Anonymize before posting.

  • Why does my MacBook Pro and Mac Pro keep freezing?

    Why does my MacBook Pro freeze?
    MacBook Pro
    2.4 GHz intel Core2 Duo
    4BB 1067 MHz DDR3
    OSX 10.6.8 Snow Leopard
    I turned it on and I went to safari to look things up. Safari froze and then the whole thing became unresponsive - the mouse could move the cursor but it couldn't open any programmes.
    Tried safe boot several times. No help.
    Tried to repair disc permissions. The first time it got a little way then said 'user stopped repair' or something  - though I didn't touch it. Tried again it got all the way through and said 'repairs complete'. But no help.
    Couldn't clear cache etc as couldn't get to the relevant part to do it.
    Opened in single user mode. Ran the fsck -fy thing twice. First time it said both “The volume appears to be OK” AND “FILE SYSTEM WAS MODIFIED.” In 2nd run it just said  “The volume appears to be OK”. No help.
    Booted it up from the Superduper bootable backup version on a USB external drive. It seemed to boot up ok but then tried to click on something and the same thing happened - spinning beach ball and it just hung.
    Erased hard drive and reinstalled snow leopard but it just does the same thing. Suggesting a hardware issue not software but...the Eerie thing is, we tried backup version on boyfriends Mac Pro and it worked fine on there but 24hrs later his Mac Pro has got exactly the same screen freezing, unresponsive issue. Could this suggest there's something evil lurking on my back up? Can't get an appointment at Genius Bar until next week and need to get some work done, so hoping someone might have some ideas?
    Cheers

    ... does Apple products work much better with using Apple routers?
    While a genuine Apple router is likely to result in success, the reason for having one instead of another product is that it eliminates a lot of uncertainty. For example, we do not know the model D-Link product you have so no one is in position to speculate what the problem might be. Also, it makes support on this forum easier since there are only three AirPort models to choose from and they all work more or less the same.
    Generally speaking your iPods, iPads, MacBooks, and AppleTV ought to work with any router though, provided it is fairly recent and meets accepted industry standards. If in doubt you can purchase an AirPort Base Station, which comes with 90 days of free telephone support. If it does not result in any improvement for you, you can always return it for a complete refund. The return period is 14 days and be sure to keep all material - receipt, box, manuals, etc...
    If you elect this option be sure to follow its installation instructions, the most important of which is to power down your modem prior to connecting the AirPort Extreme, Express, or Time Capsule. All your other equipment will need their network settings adjusted to "forget" the D-Link network and connect to the new one.

  • 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.

  • Why does my macbook pro "goes to sleep" when charging?

    Why does my macbook pro "goes to sleep" when charging? It is working fine without charging but once I attach the charger to my laptop, it just blacks out or goes to sleep mode and I can't wake it up unless I unpluck the charger.
    I read from threads that it is a logic board problem....How do I solve this problem?

    Try an SMC reset. Follow the method for "a battery you should not remove yourself."

  • Why does my Macbook Air make a single buzz/beep?

    Why does my Macbook Air make a single buzz/beep every time I open it or turn it on? It doesn't happen after again after the initial buzz. If I open it after it has been sleeping, it starts up and then there is a buzz. This has only happened since I downloaded iOS Maverick.

    Beeps on startup:
    1 beep = no RAM installed
    2 beeps = incompatible RAM types
    3 beeps = no good banks
    4 beeps = no good boot images.
    5 beeps = processor is not usable

  • Why does my macbook pro get hot

    Why does my Macbook pro get hot while I am only on my email account?  This is a recent change.  It gets too hot too put in my lap.  Is it a battery issue.

    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.

  • Why Does Retina MacBook Pro (2012) Suddenly Hibernate With Lid Open?

    I'd like to know why my Retina MacBook Pro (2012) at certain times suddenly go into Hibernate mode when I'm actively using it with the lid open and what I can do to prevent this.
    I know this is hibernate because of what I see in the Console logs and the fact that I can't trigger a wake by using the keyboard/trackpad/mouse.  Only the power button causes it to wake up.
    This usually happens when I wake it from sleep and plug it into an external monitor via HDMI to HDMI connection.   The lid is open and I use both displays.    This happens about 30 seconds to a minute after I wake from sleep.  At the time I'm not plugged into the power supply because I believe it's generally a good idea to let the batter drain and the recharge it.  The last time this happened it was about 35% to 40% charged.

    This happened again at about 31% power, again unplugged.   Previously, I had plugged in the power before pressing the power button, but this time I pressed the power button before plugging in.  The display showed me the out of power icon.  Only on plugging it back in was I able to power up the laptop again.
    Is it possible there's a bug either with the displayed power or how remaining power is detected?

  • Why are my MacBooks so slow on the network when everything else is fast?

    Last month, my apartment complex changed its network from a pretty wide open Wi-Fi to one where we must enter a user name and password every 30 days for each machine.  Since then, both my MacBooks (2012 MBP running 10.8.3 and 2008 white MB running 10.7.5) have very slow connections.  Web pages will fail to load, or load incredibly slowly (as in the progress bar moves an inch then stops).  We get bursts of activity (as also seen in Activity Monitor) lasting for seconds (limited to 4mbps down/0.2mbps up by the new ISP).  This occurs on both Safari and Firefox.  iTunes music store, the Mac App store, Mail, and Spotify all exhibit identical behavior.  My iPad, iPhone, and another's Windows netbook connect without any obvious difficulty.  We had a rep from the new ISP come to check out our connection, and he believes that the problem is directly related to the MacBooks (a virus on both?).
    Things I've tried without change in behavior (with the 2012 MBP):
    1.  Connecting directly to ethernet (and turning off AirPort).
    2.  Restarting the computer and the router.
    3.  Logging in elsewhere in the complex
    4.  Changing DNS to 8.8.8.8 and 8.8.4.4
    5.  Deleting AirPort and re-installing in System Prefs
    6.  Following the excellent "Step by Step to Fix Your Mac" https://discussions.apple.com/docs/DOC-3353 on these forums, including clearing every cache imaginable with Onyx, and uninstalling Java, Silverlight, Flash, and any System Pref plugins.
    7.  Sorting through Activity Monitor to find anything else running on my CPU of consquence--I don't think so.
    8.  Confirming good ping and down/up speeds on Speedtest.net with my iPhone
    I know little about networking, but I'm learning.  Any other suggestions?  Why does the MacBook behave differently on this network?

    Thank you for the suggestions.  I agree that my ISP rep looked a little confused by my problem.  He was comfortable using Terminal (at least for basic network queries--more than I know how to do).
    Although I physically have the ISP's router in my apartment, the ISP has changed the password, and I'm unable to change channels (though that shouldn't explain the peristent problem on ethernet).  I've tried restarting it many times, including unplugging it.
    I just emptied my trash (and restarted the computer).  500gb HD, 24gb free. No change in performance.
    You're running out of HD space.  That's the problem.
    Empty the trash in the Dock as well as iPhoto’s trash!
    Open up your application folder & go through all your apps.  Trash all the apps you no longer want and/or use.
    An easier way to do this is to open the Application folder in list view & press the Command+j keys.
    In the the dialog that appears, click the "This Window Only" button & the "Calculate All Sizes" check box.
    Wait a bit until your file & folder sizes have all been calculated, then click the "Size" column to sort your apps from the fattest to the most anorexic.
    Get rid of all your photo files you don't want and/or need.  Same goes for those pics off the websites you downloaded (gifs, jpegs, etc.).  Or transfer/move them all to a photo/movie storage site like ImageShack and Photobucket, 2 of the most popular  FREE  storage sites.
    Get rid of all your video & music files you no longer view and/or listen too.  Especially, if you already have the actual CD/DVDs or you can later redownload from a website.  Or transfer them all to a FREE video/movies and/or music storage site.
    Use Spotlight to make sure you got rid of everything.  You can even trash directly from Spotlight!  Better yet, download this FREE software called Find File.  This app puts Spotlight to shame (works w/Mountain Lion).
    Drag what you don't want and/or need to the trash.  Better yet, download this neat little shareware app *demo* called AppZapper.  It basically does all the work for you by not only trashing the apps but the apps preference files, caches & all its associated files.
    Another software that does the above is AppDelete.  Best of all this software is free!
    Burn what you want and/or need onto CDs or DVDs. Not everyone has the  luxury of purchasing an external HD and/or the system requirements for iCloud to store their "stuff.”
    Dropbox is a free storage utility to check out.
    You can check with your ISP to see if they offer *free* storage space.  Most if not all do now-a-days.   There are thousands if not millions of *free* storage facilities on the web also.  Use your favorite search engine to search them out as they come in different storage sizes to fit your needs & wants.
    Check for duplicate fonts.
    Applications>Font Book
    Select “All Fonts”
    If you see any “black dots” next to any fonts this mean you have duplicates and/or multiple versions of these fonts.
    To clean this up, select a “black dotted” font or the Apple + *click* to select multiple dotted fonts;
    Edit>Resolve>Duplicates.
    What the above does is turns off the duplicates & multiple version fonts.  Not delete them.
    More than likely the “extras” were installed by other programs and/or other users.
    Clear out font caches
    Use FontNuke.  It does all the work for you.  And, best of all it’s *FREE*.
    Printer Drivers
    Get rid of all the printer drivers you don’t need & use except the ones for your *current* printer(s)/scanner(s).
    HD>Library>Printers Folder
    If you accidently threw something out that you needed for your printer/scanner it can be easily obtained from the manufacturer’s website and/or from the CD that came w/the printer/scanner.
    Garage Band
    Has about 1GB of loops stored.  Get rid of some some them.  You surely don’t use, like and/or need them all.
    HD>Library>Audio/Apple Loops>Apple>Apple Loops For GarageBand
    Or just get rid of the Garage Band app altogether if you don’t use it.
    Get rid of extra languages
    Strip your computer down to your “native” tongue.
    You can do this with a *FREE* utility called Monolingual.  Another app that apparently does all the work for you.  I’ve never used it.  However, a lot of users here swear by & recommend it highly.
    However, there is a warning for *native English speakers*. Make sure you keep BOTH English and English (United States).
