ISTAT MENUS WEATHER NOT WORKING SOFTWARE

I and many other users use a software fan control to ramp up the iMac's internal fans as well as use an external fan on the backs of our iMacs to further cool them down more directly. I believe they do not.Īpple engineers were simply concerned much more with the complete quiet operation of the iMac design than with internal heat buildup issues within the current iMac enclosure designs. So why do long-term testing on a design that will be redesigned and refreshed every few years. It refreshes its product designs every couple of years or so. I feel the aluminum body conducts as much heat on the inside of the enclosure as it convects outward from the enclosure with an insufficient net reduction in overall internal temperatures.Īpple has definitely NOT done long duration stress testing of its current designs. The new iMac designs IMO, do not have enough sufficient, passive venting to vent all of the heat the iMac components generate. In earlier iMac models, heat was vented by having a case with that has ample venting built-into the case design. Conputer components, at one time were cooled by either water, anti-freeze-like fluids, liquid Nitrogen, etc. Heat is the enemy of all small electronic components, period!Ĭomponent failure and component "brown-outs" can be caused both by fluctuating electric current and/or heat!Įlectronic components like to operate in as cool a temperature as possible. I am convinced that all are heat related issues. There are a lot of posts here of hard drive failure, CPU, GPU and even logic board failures.

A single license is $18, but the “Family Pack” is $25 and allows you to install on up to 5 Macs.Coming from an electronics engineering background, I can tell you most assuredly that the heat generated inside the current iMac design enclosure is not good for the electronic components over a period of time. If you’re curious about what’s going on under the hood of your Mac, then you should try iStat Menus. I like most everything set up the same on all my Macs, but there are some tweaks that are different depending upon the machine.

I do wish there was a way to sync my settings between my MacBook Air and Mac mini, although they do allow you to export and import settings.

Weather (although I have several other sources for weather).The ability to combine menus (I actually use iStat Menus to see things at a glance so I don’t see myself using this).But now I assigned ⌃+⌥+⌘+D as the keyboard shortcut to quickly pull that down so I don’t have to move my cursor (hitting the shortcut again hides it or just hit the Esc key). I also like clicking on it to quickly see the month and find a date. For example, I like using iStat Menus to show the time and date because it offers more options for customizing how it looks. I also like that I can assign a hotkey to menus. Version 6 puts a little more polish on the interface and makes all my usual components look a little better.īut version 6 also adds a few more customization options for changing the color and background of the dropdown menus and items. And I really appreciate the granular customizations for time and date.I use it for the advanced battery monitoring.I use it to see how hot my MacBook Air is running.I use it to measure my network connection and see if anything is using more than it should be.I use it to see how much memory (RAM) is being used by open applications.I use it to see if my CPU is getting slammed.I can’t image running a Mac without the most helpful components that sit in my menubar: I’ve been using iStat Menus since at least version 3, and the folks at Bjango just released version 6 last week. If you’re that kind of person, then you’ll love iStat Menus for your Macs. Others like to know their current & average gas mileage, tire inflation, remaining oil life, brake wear, temperature, battery charge level, and more.

Some people just drive a car and don’t pay attention to anything but their speed (don’t wanna get a ticket!).
