MacBook Air :: Playing Minecraft - Most Intense Application
Oct 27, 2010Any other Minecraft players out there with one of the new MacBook Airs? Preferably someone with the 11", how does it run and what kind of draw distance can you use without frame drops? I imagine if I get an Air this would be the most intense application I run on it.

Nov 1, 2009I have a MacBook Pro 2009 with a 500GB drive (WDigital, I replaced the 160GB). I was using Perian to play mkv movies, and yesterday I downloaded Plex to try it out. But in both every time I play a Mkv file the fans start spinning, I think it's the fans or maybe the hard drive. But it's quite a loud whoosh all throughout the movie. Is this normal or playing a mkv file shouldn't make any noise at all? Should it use a lot of CPU? I'm using Leopard latest version.

Aug 22, 2014Just purchased a MacBook Pro Retina, refurbished (because why not - the same product for a cheaper price) around a month ago. It's the 13 inch and is the model before the most recent one came out (4GB of RAM instead of 8GB - late 2013). From the very first day, playing a full-screen video on any site (be it YouTube, Facebook, etc) just makes the fan much louder than usual (so loud that you can almost hear it more over the video itself). Thought it may have been just a thing with Flash Player being buggy, but the problem has persisted for a while now. I'm not even pushing the CPU to any limits - literally playing a full-screen video on Facebook (not even in HD) makes the fan go crazy.Â
Just last night I tried installing Borderlands 2 and it was the same thing - FPS rate was fine, no lag, just the fan was so loud that I actually got scared for my computer and turned it off. After closing the app and checking out the fan temperature, it was at 91c.Â
Never happens when browsing/surfing or doing my usual work.Â
Should I go give it back to Apple? The thing is I start university in less than a week (and hence will be traveling), so not sure if I can afford to give my laptop in to them for a long period of time (I know it should be free though since mine is a refurb item). May it just be an issue that is quickly repairable or is this worse?

MacBook Pro :: System Making Loud Noises / Loud Sound On Start Up ?
Aug 23, 2009I just bought my MacBook Pro last week. When I power it up, it makes a loud noise for about a second and a half. I think it's the hard drive starting up or the disc drive. I'm not sure which one, but it's pretty loud, so I was just wondering if anyone else noticed this and if it is normal.

OS X V10.7 Lion :: Why Minecraft Not Working On New IMac
Mar 30, 2012I just upgraded from on old iMac. Dealing with unhappy kids because the minecraft game they loved won't work on the new one. I've installed Java for Lion. I go to the minecraft site and try a single player game. We get application errors. I suppose its an older game that is not compatible with Lion, right? I see I can purchase a download for 20 euros. Should that work?

Jan 29, 2009I have a macbook 13". About 1.5 years old and the fan gets really loud sometimes. I know because it gets hot but it never used to be this loud. It's like I am listening to a helicopter fly by. My brother's Acer he bought for $300 is not as loud as my mac. (Not saying that it is a worse computer)

MacBook Pro :: Fan Too Loud With Low Rpm
Apr 6, 2012I bought the macbook in mid Jan 2012. At first, the fans weren't that loud. But now with only Chrome (no videos), Word, and iTunes open, the rpm isn't that high, but the fans are too loud. Why is it that the fans are running loud, but the rpm isn't that high? Is it time to clean the fans (with only 3 months after buying it)?

MacBook :: A1278 - Hot CPU, Loud Fan?
Apr 15, 2010I own a aluminum unibody Macbook (a1278), and my CPU runs hot basically anytime I run Flash in a browser. Chrome, Safari and Firefox all spike the CPU usage to upwards of 75 to 100% when even viewing a simple YouTube or Hulu clip, though sometimes, such as now, it runs hot when Flash isn't running.
Since I've noticed this, my fan has been progressively getting worse. You can hear the ball-bearings making noise and rattling when the fan gets up to and above 3000rpm's. When the fan is at it's normal speed of around 2000 rpm's, you can still hear the rattling, though it's not making the jet engine sound it does when running faster.I have since ordered a new fan for replacement, which I will be doing myself. My questions are...
1. Will replacing the fan myself void my warranty?
2. Why oh why does a YouTube clip spike my CPU temps so high? Are there settings or tweaks I could be making to avoid this?
3. Am I an idiot and overlooking some other fatal flaw in my system?

MacBook Air :: Fan Now Running Far More Loud
Jun 27, 2010I have a MBA:
Model Name: MacBook Air
Model Identifier: MacBookAir2,1
Processor Name: Intel Core 2 Duo
Processor Speed: 1.86 GHz
Recently I have noticed that the fan is now running far more than it ever used to. I only have to call up a couple of web pages and off it goes. The fan almost never used to come on, unless I have really using the processor, so wondering what the likely problem is.
MacBook Pro :: Won't Boot And Loud Fan
Feb 18, 2012I upgraded my wife's 13" late 11 mbp with a segate 750gb drive... Same one I put in my identical hardware on snow leopard. After using lion recover to restore the whole disk (again, same process on mine) it sits at the boot logo for a long time and the fan kicks on to high.
View 6 Replies View RelatedMacBook Air :: Fan Loud At Low CPU Usage
Jun 1, 2014I have a MacBook Air Late 2010, and the fan over heats at around 30% CPU usage, I installed AppTamer to keep it down, but it is quite annoying to keep using it. Sometimes the fan will go at 18% when one application uses about 15%, but not 100% percent when its lots of other ones. App that generaly cause the fan to overheat are, obviously, high CPU ones, like Pixelmator, Photoshop, Xcode, but some times even low CPU usage, like YouTube or Video Content on Google Chrome, Safari and Google Chrome in general. Microsoft Office 2011, Pages, Numbers & Keynote. Even apps like Preview (viewing more than 5 photos ) can use alot of CPU. So what should I do? I have repairs under warranty till about September, but Apple charge £35.00 to chat online?!?! I have tried resetting the SMC which only works about half of the time. I read on the internet that it is a production issue or at least common Late 2010 MacBook Air's.

MacBook Air :: Does The Trackpad Have A Loud Click
Oct 22, 2010For the new MacBook Air owners: how loud is the click on your trackpad?
I have a black MacBook which has the separate button (pre-glass trackpad). It's almost completely silent. On almost every unibody MacBook Pro though, the click is really loud and can sometimes even be heard in the next room.
How is this with the new Airs? Still loud or not really noticeable? I like to click instead of tap, but not if everyone can hear my neurotic clicking all day long

May 15, 2012About 5 mins ago i rebooted my Mac, and in the boot process something started to buzz horibly. I was in a dark room, so it was very scary for me and very late too... Being scared i pushed CTRL+OPTION+SHIFT+POWER so it shut down imeaditly.
I powered it on, no buzzing. But OS X did not boot at all. Just stood there. Now I'm booting of the recovery DVDto disable my EFI pass, so i can boot verbose.

MacBook :: Overheating And Loud Fan On 13"?
May 17, 2012I've had my Macbook Since early 2008. But only in the last 8 Months my fan has become increasingly Noisy and Hot. I upgraded to Snow Leopard last year (I'm on Mac OS X 10.6.8 ) and it seems it became alot noisier after this. I originally only had 2gb Ram, but upgraded this week to 4gb ram thinking that would help. I've also gone and purchased an external hard drive and moved all my movies, photos, music etc onto this in an attempt to not only back up my files but hopefully alleviate some of my space on the mac. I've tried the Resetting SMC and also followed another apple step by step guide (??) and in my activitiy monitor nothing is even over 10% and i've been regularly checking for the last hour. I'm aware the fan is always running, but the noise is ridiculous. I've done so much research on this and i'm at a complete loss, I know there is only one fan in this version of macbook and it's definitely running as I hear it all the time.
