Mavericks

Post by eldanon »

What's the verdict on the latest version running on Mavericks? I don't want to upgrade until I know it works.

The app is compatible with Mavericks.
There're visual glitches with fonts, which will be solved in 1.1.6 today or tomorrow.

Re: Mavericks

I just installed this and tried different options ( the sensor one and another cranking it up all the way )

I reset the PRAM ( i think it is ) because i couldn't higher the cpu one so everything is up.

Problem is, it doesn't seem to be working for me.

I'm looking at the icon and it reads the same, no matter what I change the fans to.

I'm on an iMac 24in mid 2007 (Running Mavericks of course)

Programs on startup/running in the background are:

SMARTReporter & Dropbox ( that are 3rd party ) Nothing else.

So I'm wondering what it could be...

Thanks...

Ok here it is...

Right now it reads 43, I put it with the sensor option to allow the max to be 45c

It's only at this temp cuz I had shut the screen off and did some things and just returned.

1. All 3 fans mustn't be assigned to a single sensor (HDD)

2. I do suspect an error in SMC layer of your mac - there're no temperature sensors at all! Try to reset SMC. This iMac is supported by MFC, see picture.

So after I do the following to reset SMC

Shut down the computer.
Unplug the computer's power cord.
Wait fifteen seconds.
Attach the computer's power cord.
Wait five seconds, then press the power button to turn on the computer.


I should then see more than 1 sensor in the application like I do in yours?

I don't know, this is the only possible suggestion I have for this situation.
Try also running this app (after exiting MFC), will it display any temperature sensors?

I just reset it, did the unplug then plug then power up, same thing shows in the program.

I guess it's something with my machine considering no one else really reports the same issue :x
