Applications :: What Is "base Speed" In Smc Fan Control
Jun 5, 2010Does the base speed mean the minimum speed for the fans to run at? Or, is the speed the fans will run at all the time?

Applications :: SMC Fan Control - Setting Minimum Speed
Apr 14, 2009Just downloaded and installed this app, been using it for a few hours, I am a fan. Just a quick question, it won't seem to let me set the minimum fan speed below 2000rpm (the standard level for the app), is this normal, I thought I remembered the apple default being lower?

Hardware :: Airport Base Station N-router Speed?
Feb 16, 2009I usually got 130mbps with my n-router in terms of speed from my iMac to my router, but now for some reason I am only getting 13mbps.
I have changed my multicast rate from 2 - 11 mbps and no change. Any ideas on what could have done this?

Feb 21, 2008i am new to mac and coming from linux. got my mac pro about 3 weeks ago and i am wondering if there is something similar to powernowd or cpufreqd under osx to control the cpu speed and voltage of the 8 core monster. i mean there must be some power saving features in osx for the macbook series i guess and i want to know if there is something similar for the pro series.i am not sure if i better asked this questions in the osx forum but its somehow mac pro related. so are there any power saving features cpu speed or vcore related for the desktop mac series in osx right now?or is it maybe not supported yet because the hardware is so new?

View 3 Replies View RelatedMac Pro :: SMC Control - Setting Safe Fans Speed
Jul 29, 2008During the summer, I don't have A/C in my house. My temps were getting pretty high, around 55C/130F for processors and up to 78c/172f for ram. That is pretty high, and I suspect it is because the ambient temp in my room is somewhere in the 90s. I am just very acclimated to the heat, and it doesn't bother me.
I downloaded SMC Fan control and bumped the min fan speeds up to:
1250rpm for Exhaust
1150rpm for CPU
800rpm for Power Supply
1350rpm for HD
This has made a tremendous difference. CPU is down over 20C and ram is down about 30-35C. Are these fan speeds safe? What are the Mac Pro fans rated at, and will the increased speed shorten their lifespan? I'd like to keep these current fan speeds if it is safe.

May 10, 2010got a problem, after i bought the new macbook pro 13'':

is that normal? additional info: i downloaded istat menus 3 which has the option to control the fan speed (i deactivated it... no changing... always 2000rpm). did istat crash the internal fan speed control?
MacBook Pro :: Fan Speed Has Increased After Installing And Uninstalling Fan Control Software?
Jun 30, 2012I installed (and subsequently uninstalled) two different fan control programs... Since then, my fan speed has increased somewhat dramatically. Instead of the normal 2000 rpm (approx), it now runs at 3500 to 4500 rpm with CPU temps between 55 & 65 deg. C. I'm wondering if one of the programs modified some fan setting and how I can restore the factory defaults. I'm on a Macbook Pro OSX 10.6.8 *additional note: I only have one fan running (left fan), which is why I downloaded the fan control programs in the first place... but the left fan was running at around 2000 rpm even though it was the only fan (until I installed those programs)
Info:
MacBook Pro, Mac OS X (10.6.8)

Nov 1, 2010I cracked open my base 13 (2GB, 128, 1.83) and must say I'm pretty impressed. But I'm getting the feeling that I'm not going to use it that much. I've already got a 27" iMac and a 32GB iPad. But I'd still like a MBA because they are fantastic machines. I'm thinking I want to swap out my 13 for a base 11 and save the $300.

If I restart safari I will be able to download close to my 18 Mbps for a little bit but then it will just start to slow down and after about 30 minutes it will be down to about 6 - 8 Mbps.
Applications :: Looking For Template Style Program With Calendar Base
May 19, 2010What I am looking for is a template style program with a calendar base, that will let me enter fields such as "revenue", "payroll" and "today's issues" on a business level. I don't need a "task" or "to do" list, as this program would hopefully help me present reports to my boss after the fact. Currently, we use an excel spreadsheet to report our financials, which is fine, but I would like the text box "issues" field to basically bitch about what other people aren't doing.

Nov 11, 2008I got a notice of an update for SMCFanControl to version 2.1.3.1. I installed it, and when it ran my fans went faster and louder than ever before! Normally surfing the web they were around 2000rpm. After the update SMC reported 7300rpm! I didn't even think they could go that fast.

Nov 3, 2008I have a MacBook pro (pre-2008 update), and recently had to reinstall smc fan control after trying out another fan control app i thought might be better. After finding out that smc was the way to go, i reinstalled it. After reinstalling smc, it was never working properly like it was before i uninstalled it. When I make a favorite and then set that favorite on the menubar, the fans kick up to the speed i set it to for about 3 seconds then they return to the normal 2000 rpms. nothing I do can fix this. i have tried reinstalling, reinstalling different versions etc.

Applications :: Is Smc Fan Control Safe To Use?
May 17, 2009I find that, more often than not, my MBP (late 08) gets incredibly hot and overheated). So I heard about this program smcFanControl and have been using it since, and it really does a good job keeping my computer cool.I have the left/right fans running at 6000 RPM (the max), is is SAFE for my fans to be running that fast? Will it significantly lower the longevity of the fans/computer at all?
View 4 Replies View RelatedApplications :: How To Control The Margins In TextEdit
Dec 13, 2004How do you control the margins in TextEdit?
I am trying to create a manual which includes some screen snaps which fit on A4 paper, but TextEdit persistently has fat margins and won't print the images that are wider than width allowed by the margins.
The screen grabs appear on screen but when I print the document the wider images do not print although they leave a gap in the text equal to their height.
I have:
Adjusted the preferences:
� for window width which is in No of Characters (how wide is a character when you are using rtf?)
� checked Wrap to window which shows a page view but the margins don't change
� I have created an entire new page in Page Setup with fixed margins and selected it but nothing changes
Mac Help says the margins can be altered by dragging the page margin markers in the ruler, but they will not drag outside what seems to be the default margins, This wouldn't help with top and bottom margins anyway.
I have tried using Acrobat PDF as the printer but again I get no further options and nothing changes.
I am at my wits end. TextEdit is almost temptingly useful except for the weird UI.
Applications :: Fan Control - Best Configuration Settings?
May 10, 2008A while back I installed Fan Control on my MacBook Pro 2,4 GHz. Since then I have processed to at least two clean install of Leopard. From what I have read, the application is located in the MBP firmware. So I have a couple of questions for you:
- How do I uninstall Fan control?
- Well should I be stuck with it then, I am not sure I really understand how to use it:
I am reading:
Fan control:
Base speed: 1500RPM
Lower Threshold: 50C
Upper Threshold: 80C
Current values:
Left fan: 1593 RPM
Right fan: 1600 RPM
Temperature: 47,5C
Are these settings OK? What types of configurations would be dangerous for my machine?
Applications :: Remote Control ITunes On PC?
Dec 26, 2008I have plugged a Windows XP notebook into my home stereo, installed iTunes on it and have it streaming music from my other Windows XP box upstairs. Everything works perfectly. What I'd like is a suggestion on a make/model remote control (you know, like the tv remote you use every day) that will allow me to do simple operations in iTunes like Next Song, Back, etc.
I have the Apple Mac Mini remote control but it, by default, will not talk to my Windows hardware because there is no Infrared Port (as far as I know). It's not the easiest thing to google. I would assume I could find a Remote Control package that includes the Remote, an Infrared Receiver (that plugs in via USB), and some baseline software for under $30 somewhere.
It needs to be a USB port because I do not have an RS232 jack on my laptop (Dell Mini9). On a side note, I have to say, this setup I created is THE BEST way to stream iTunes music down to my stereo. I have tried numerous products for the past 10 years ranging from Tivo to Logitech's Squeezebox2 and nothing compares to simply 2 computers sharing iTunes. I got the Dell Mini9 for $302 to my door!

OS X :: How To Control The Volume Of Applications Independently Of Each Other
Nov 4, 2009Vista and 7 have built in functionality to allow the user to control the application volumes independently of each other. For example, if I'm watching a video, and also am browsing websites that randomly emit noise, it allows you to mute your web browser while still having sound from your video. Can this be done in Mac OS X? Or are there free programs?
I work online through a website that has annoying and non-essential sound, so I want to mute this in order to listen to music through iTunes.
