  My Question: Why the fan on my macbook pro continues to run at a fast pace for long periods?

  I guess that the fan runs constantly, because the CPU is working at a high rate. I rebooted several times but without any resolution systems. At the bottom of the computer is very hot at times so place the laptop on an object that allows good air circulation. This problem occurs intermittently every few weeks or more. I wonder if it is downloading an important upgrade, do a scan of viruses, or by working as a bot. Lights for hours. Currently, I estimate that it has worked rapidly to possible 6 hours. Thank you.

  It will usually be to dissipate internal heat from running resource intensive applications.

  Download and install a temperature/speed control application.

  Open the activity monitor all THE PROCESSES and CPU to display values between high and low.

  When the fan speeds up, post pictures of both for review.

  Also run Apple Hardware Test:

  Note that an error free AHT is inconclusive.

  Ways to help make a slow Mac faster

  17 reasons why your Mac runs slower than expected

  Slow performance of Mac? This Article addresses!

  Difficulty of slow start in OS X | MacFixIt - CNET Reviews

  How to fix the slow down time and start. | MacTip.net

  6 easy tips to speed up OS X Yosemite on your Mac.

  Avoid using third-party software that claims to clean your computer. This software does more harm than good. In addition, you don't need it. Note that all computers become slower over time even in the normal conditions of use. Generally, the experienced users erasing the hard drive and do a clean install from scratch at least once a year or every time that the installation of a major upgrade of the OS. Well sure doing so also means that you need to maintain regular and several backups.

  Add more RAM or reduce the number of simultaneously executed from applications and utilities. Remove unnecessary software such as anti-malware and that promises to clean your Mac. Look for the runaway process: Runaway applications can shorten the battery life, affect performance and increase the heat and fan acti... See also:

  Before Mavericks

  Open the activity monitor in the Utilities folder.  Select all processes in the drop process .  Click the % CPU column heading twice to display in descending order.  If find you a process that uses a large amount of time processor (> = 70,) then select the process, and then click the quit icon in the toolbar.  Click the force quit button to kill the process.  See if that helps.  Don't forget to mention the name of the runaway process, so you can find the cause of the problem.

  Mavericks and later versions

  Open the activity monitor in the Utilities folder.  Select all processes in the menu display .  Click the CPU tab in the toolbar. Click the % CPU column heading twice to display in descending order.  If you find a process that uses a large amount of CPU %, then select the process, then click on the quit icon in the toolbar.  Click the force quit button to kill the process.  See if that helps.  Don't forget to mention the name of the runaway process, so you can find the cause of the problem.

  The ultimate solution

  Back up everything, wipe the drive, reinstall OS X and restore your data from backup. Reinstall the third-party software of original/zero media.

• Why the FAN always ON the 2nd level - Toshiba Tablet R20-112?

  Hello
  I wonder why the FAN on CORE 2 DUO T5600 1.8 still working on 2nd level
  Although I watch the movie or listen to music on Winamp when the processor is enabled in the lowest power manager.
  Sometimes when I work only with battery fan goes to level 1, very quiet, but only when the Core2Duo have nothing to do, when I turn for example winamp or internal search FAN runs at the 2nd level, much more noise. The air coming out of the fan he has about 31' C.
  I have the most recent bios on this subject. I tried to turn the processor low always, but without effect.

  The battery remains 4 hours as it usually must (4700mAh), 02:30-3 hours on economy mode max.

  Is it possible to change that affect of perhaps of witch fan noisy most energy?

  Best regards

  Hello

  In my view, there is a similar situation as the Portege M400 (also tablet PC). The cooling fan runs almost constantly. Toshiba has designed the special version of BIOS and after update the laptop BIOS works silently. Maybe something like this will be for Satellite R20 but at the moment it is no things to do. You can only reduce the performance of the processor.

  Sorry but I do not see a solution for this. I can't tell you that but 4 hours on battery battery operation time is for me absolutely unrealistic. I have Tecra business notebook. Energy consumption is really minimal, and I can't work more than 3 hours.

• Why the green light on my magic keyboard and mouse flashes green when I turn on after replacing the batteries?

  Why the green light on my magic keyboard and mouse flashes green when I turn on after replacing batteries (and not connect to the computer; battery tested good tester)?

• HP Envy 17 Notebook PC: Is it a default setting for the fan to be constantly on?

  My fan runs constantly. It is configured in this way in the BIOS. I would like to change the regulated temperature constant. Any damage will occur if I turn it on? I'm not on hours in a row, it's a new system that usually stay in 1 room.

  Come with preinstalled Win10? Or did you upgrade Win10 yourself?

  Ask because a machine, particularly those not designed to run on Win 10, are supposed to run more hot on Win10 than on their previous operating system.

  IF you upgraded and you change the BIOS settings to allow the fan to be switched automatically due to temperatures, very likely, that it will continue to stay all the time.

• Why the fan of my Satellite A500-19W of bizarre acts?

  I bought this computer a week ago. I have Windows 7 64 bit. When I surf the net or watch a movie or listen to music the fan starts for 2 minutes, stop for 2 minutes again. It's a cycle that never ends, and the sound of it that bothers me, making me think that something is wrong. The computer is not hot with the exception of the evacuation zone. It cannot be filled with dust because it's brand new. Is this normal? Should I be worried?

  Hello

  My satellite that a500 is also like that, even if I surf the Internet, watch movie and CPU shows only 5%. I don't play all the games. It didn't because of the dust because I clean it regularly, installed all the drivers, BIOS updated. For the most part, I always run in energy saving mode but fact noise.
  The only way to make it quieter to run the fan at a constant speed as 54%, I simply load the CPU with some applications that keeps the fan runs almost everytime and no perceptible noise

• Pavilion g6-1165 his: the fan runs almost constantly

  Hello. My fan turns quite continuously. I just installed a new HARD drive and the data is restored. I remember I had this problem some time ago and I cured it by updating the BIOS. This time, I have updated drivers up-to-date and don't get any yellow excalmation point on Device Manager. I've updated the BIOS. I looked at the openings on the underside, and they have clear air. I went into the Task Manager and stop any program that shows the use of the processor (like chrome) and it is still ongoing. The air coming out feels quite warm. I took it outside to see if a burst of cold air he'd stop, but that did not work. I don't really want to disassembly to clean the ventilation openings when they have clear air from the outside. Any help much appreciated woiuld. Thank you.

  Thank you very much for your answer. It seems that there is dust of vision when I blew air compressed as described on the HP website a large amount is released. The fan has kept silent since. Thank you once again. Problem solved.

• Why the shockwave CONSTANTLY the accident?

  I constantly get a message saying that shockwave crashed and have an option to stop the script, or contnuing it. If I keep it, it hangs or slows down in a way. If I stop, the window closes.

  • Why the plugin shockwave crash constantly?

• Control the fan on Satellite Pro 2100

  I used to see the analysis of the cpu temp with speedfan, I'd see when the temp (labeled local or remote or temp1, I don't remember.) Maybe 'local').
  reached 50 or 50 >, fan went.

  But I can't find that now. The fan still works ' cos I can activate it with speedfan saying speedfan set to 50% or more, then it lights.
  (less than 50% it is not lit, or at low speed - I think a constant - it is inaudible).

  I would like to know why the fan is not when the temperature reaches 50 > more... When the setting is...
  is there a program I can use to do?

  He finds...
  you know toshiba replaces the thing of power management with its own thing in toshiba power saver. Toshiba power saver thing had a framework...

  "Cooling method.
  and
  "Intel Speedstep Technology.

  Each is adjustable to the Performance, or optimized battery or something.

  More course set the method of 'performance' of cooling... If you say 'battery optimized' then I think that the processor gets hot enough.

  Whereas, for the technology intel speedstep... I do not remember that I put there, but I guess that optimized battery would make the CPU cooler.

  However, I noticed when changing the settings of the more advanced page of toshiba power saver setting processor speed to the lowest, it was extremely slow but still an idle at high temperature, about 50 I think, not so much if any difference there.

  I think it was less 0 charge, or charge of 0 to 10. I watch the load with notebook hardware control, speedfan and maybe other programs... However, only was necessary.

• Behind closed doors when the fan comes on (HP Pavilion G6)

  I have just bought a HP Pavilion G6 2295sa yesterday and spent the day installing my usual software on it (Office, Visual Studio, etc.).

  Tonight the fan started to come strong enough (his rattling not or anything like that, just go fast I think). The laptop doesn't feel particularly hot so I don't really know why it keeps coming back.

  However, the real problem is that whenever the fan lights, Windows crashes, I can not move the mouse, keyboard is not responding, I can't even turn off by holding the power button - I had to remove the power and battery.

  Is this a common problem? Does more so tomorrow he'll go back and be replaced, but I wonder if its worth replacing it with the same computer laptop or not - if it's a known/common problem so I'll probably go something else.

  Any help would be appreciated.
