Macs Fan Control on 2 CPU MacPro

Post by Peter_on_MacPro »

I used Macs Fan Control on my MacPro and it worked perfectly! But now I changed to a 2 CPU machine and here I see both CPU temperatures but only one CPU fan. IStat Menu for example shows me both fans so the info is available. Is there a way to get the second fan?

Quit the app and run the following:

Code: Select all

#!/bin/bash

killall MacsFanControl
rm ~/Library/Preferences/com.crystalidea.macsfancontrol.plist
killall -u `id -u -n` cfprefsd
then restart the app.
