fan won't stop

  1. Bobby Owsinski - 10 September 2007

    My Macbook Pro 2.2 core 2 duo has been great until I did the latest Pro Application Support update. Now the computer runs generally hotter than it did before and the fan runs non-stop. Running 10.4.10.

    Rebooted, reset the SMU, repaired permissions - no change.

    Any suggestions?

    I think I would first try resetting the SMC:

    If that doesn't help, I'd bring it in to an Apple Store or call Apple support and let them figure out what's wrong.

    Apply rot13 to this e-mail address before using it.
