I never used my DVD drive on my imac and all I simply wanted to do was DISABLE the damned fan through OSX terminal. Google could not directly provide a solution as it appears to be quite rare. I had spent hours on Google trying to fix this without having to lug my iMac into Apple or try removing the molex cable from the drive manually. My iMac (2011 27″) had a broken ODD (Optical Disk Drive, aka DVD drive) fan. I am posting this in hopes to help someone else out there who was pulling their hair out like me for one simple, little problem. Also it was not running when I installed smcfancontrol.Īny ideas anyone? I know very little about Mac I got this from my dad when he died and it runs great, but hot. I have Temperature Monitor installed but it only reads the temps. I have no other fan control software running at all, and never have. I’m guessing “Sparkle” is the auto-update framework you guys used? I know of no other Sparkle. I had to restart and then delete the files.
But then when I try to force quit the app, the system doesn’t show any running processes except the Finder. Then, when I attempt to delete the files, it won’t let me empty the trash because smcfancontrol is in use, and it also said something called “Sparkle” is in use as well.
Smc fan control mac 2016 mac os#
Upon launching the app I am greeted with the “not tested on my system” dialog, then Mac OS asks for Admin login, and after granting access the app simply does nothing.
2009 running OS X 10.6 and I have tried several versions of this software and none of them will run properly.
