All,

Oct 29, 2011  Wulf, I run SL on a 4.5 year old MacBook Pro (2.33GHz, Core2 Duo) with no problems. The only crashing I experienced was do due dust blocking/stalling the GPU fan. If your Mac is a recent machine, it should run SL just fine. Given a choice between the SL viewer and the Mac as your culprit, I'd be looking at the viewer.

Jan 11, 2018  I have tried 'SMCfanControl' and 'Fan Control for Mac' but they are way to complicated, all i want is a simple app to set the speed of my HDD fan too about 1600rpm, and it will keep it at that when ever i boot up mac etc. Until i tell it to stop. (Also some apps ive read about people say they can't uninstall them etc. None of those.

I have an MBP with OS X 10.7.4. Since the last week, it has been running hot on the left keyboard side reaching upto 80 to 90º C--more than the actual temp. value, it was becoming uncomfortable to be able to use the keyboard, esp. resting the palms on the sides of the trackpad.

After making several searches, I found one post on the internet, where the poster suggested to check activity monitor (the usual course of action), show 'all processes' and sort by CPU. This I did and found that Preview was at 100.3% CPU. I 'quit' Preview and voila, the temp fell quite quickly (smcfancontrol from http://www.macupdate.com/app/mac/23049/smcfancontrolmay have also helped)

Question: I had preview open and ONLY showing 2 (two) PDF files (more specifically multiple PDFs in one window and the other PDF in another window).

What I'm trying to say is there was nothing else going with Preview-processing/flash or such things that one would expect to actually cause the temp rise.

So why was Preview the culprit?

When I switch on my iMac the fan kicks in and rages away for ages despite the computer being stone cold. I can usually fix it by restarting a few times, but is there a better way, and why is it doing this? Thanks.

  1. Thank you so much Mike as my mac is nice and quiet again. Also my bluetooth wasn't available because of the fan but now it is working again.
    Thanks again

  2. When i first hooked up my 27' all in one i used the old power cable for convenience. It came on fine but the fan ran in 'turbo mode' all the time. When i replaced the power cable that problem disappeared like a bad odor on a windy day.

  3. Haha i thought i had this problem and spend 3 hours on the phone to a very patient guy at apple, trying all of the above, turned out it wasnt a fan, i had a cd in and forgot about it, it was just reading the disc whenever i started up the mac, haha still feel abit of a fool :D

  4. TO FIDELIS:

    I have a broken fan that generates a grinding noise in my Macbook. I've already ordered a replacement, but it will take a couple of days to arrive. However, I'd like to disable the fan that is generating the noise, for the time being, and I think smcfancontrol can help. But I'm not sure what the arguments you've provided for the utility are.

    /Applications/smcFanControl.app/Contents/Resources/smc -k F2Mx -w 12c0

    I'm assuming the last characters determine the fan speed. If so, which letters/numbers will give me 0rpm?

    I hope you see this, thanks.

  5. Okay, tonigh the computer was back to its naughty antics with the fan roaring on full speed. I did the SMC reset and it has worked. Hopefully that's the problem solved. Thanks to all for taking the time to help. Best regards.

  6. Thank you all for your excellent advice. I haven't had a chance or the need to try any of it as in the last few days the problem has decided to go away, at least for now. When it returns (as I suspect it will bc it's an on again-off again thing) I will try the SMC reset first (thank you Mike). I will also try the Apple Hardware Test. I don't have the know-how to work on the terminal as described by Fidelis but I have a friend who does, should it come to that. Cheers guys, really appreciate it. Aibek, thank you too, I will be sure to post anything I find out.

  7. Hey Craig,

    Were you able to figure out what was the issue with the fan? Did you fin any of the above tips helpful? Let us know.

    Aibek

  8. Hello, usually when a fan is really noisy is because it is struggling to keep up with the heating. The reason it is struggling is because of dust on the blades. Dust on the blades make the blades heavier and therefore the fan compensates by running at a higher speed. Usually higher speeds mean more noise. Would it be possible for you to check inside your case and clean the fans and the cooler?

    Have you tried the Apple Hardware Test?
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1509

    Run the Apple Hardware Test and hopefully It'll show you if something is not running ok. From what I have heard, there have been a lot of cases where the temperature sensor is at fault.

    If you are willing to work on the terminal there is a script that can help you out with the fan speed. Using terminal commands there is a way to force your CPU fan to run at tolerable rpms. This solution should only be used if you know what you're doing and you are absolutely sure the CPU fan on your iMac is indeed out of control. Forcing a low max speed on a healthy CPU Fan with fully functioning sensors can seriously damage your Mac.

    -- Install smcFanControl
    -- In terminal use the following commands
    -- /Applications/smcFanControl.app/Contents/Resources/smc -k F2Mx -w 12c0

    This will set the CPU Fan to a maximun of 1200 rpm

    To go back to default settings(3900 rpm) you can use the following commands:

    /Applications/smcFanControl.app/Contents/Resources/smc -k F2Mx -w 3cf0

    3d software for mac. Other fan speeds you can try:
    1100rpm = 1130
    1500rpm = 1770
    3900rpm = 3cf0

    All you need to find out now is a way for this script to run at bootup.

    • Although I recommend to 'repair' the issue to prevent any damage to your system instead of working around it here is how you could solve the 'script' thing FIDELIS mentioned.

      You could use a Launch Agent to start this on every boot up. You can use the following online tool to create the file: http://plist.spotmac.de/

      Click on 'launchd Quickguide' to see where you have to place the Plist file you are generating there.

      Screenshot how it should look like http://cl.ly/4330123R3g0G1h3R0Q0H
      Of course change the settings after 'smc -k..' to match your preferences.

    • can you type the command to set maximum speed for HDD Fan ? Please help me out

      • Hello, have you downloaded the most recent update for smcfancontrol utility? Here is the link:

        Dec 04, 2018  Self-Control is a simple, free, and open-source Mac app that helps you focus by letting you block websites or anything else on the internet (such as mail servers) as you see fit. Then, you set a timer for yourself and dedicate the next however many minutes to a distraction-free focus session. As a note, you should have your computer to ask for a password before making changes. So when I activate my self control program, i have to put my password in first. This will prevent unauthorized of the program. – user51266 Jun 14 '13 at 15:34. Jun 16, 2020  Due to these reasons, you'll find that there are two user groups who review SelfControl quite differently. Some people complain about having their Mac damaged while for other people this website blocker is a live saver. Below you can find 2 reviews of this app that explain these two different opinions. Cant find mac self control app in apps windows 10. May 28, 2020  SelfControl is a free, open-source application that lets you block your own access to distracting websites, your mail servers, or anything else on the Internet. Just set a period of time to block for, add sites to your blacklist, and click 'Start.' Until that timer expires, you will be unable to access those sites even if you restart your computer or delete the application.

        The reason I ask this is because the newest version has controls for hdd fans. I believe you can set the max. hdd fan speed there instead of using terminal.

    • super!, was pulling my hair out. F0Mx is the optical disk one

  9. Is it just 'noisy' or is it running on what seems to be full speed?

    First one usually indicates either a lot of dust within the Fan and the iMac or the Fans bearing reaching it's end of life.

    If it seems to be on full speed try an SMC Reset:
    1. shutdown your iMac
    2. unplug the power cord
    3. press and hold the Power button for 5-6 seconds
    4. release the power button
    5. plugin the power cable and turn on your iMac

    If this solves the problem there is no explainable reason. Sometimes the System Management Controller (SMC) of the Mac get's stuck with a setting ~ nothing more, nothing less.

    • Great advise! The sequence of tasks that you recommended worked to stop the fan on my iMac from running full speed without any reason. :)

    • Thanks Mike

      you just saved my life, or at least my mac.

      it was very close to be dropped from a moving car

      The newest version also integrates with a world of other technological interfaces which makes projection mapping, edge blending, control from a switcher or lighting console a heck of a lot easier. The biggest benefit of PVP2 is it’s ability to create easy to fire Macros controlling multiple surfaces with multiple different pieces of content with the single click of a button.
