my 21.5 has just now for the second time emitted a long, steady 4 second beep. This bothers me. What could this be here?
I'd appreciate any feedback sincerely

When does this happen? At start-up?
overheating alarm maybe do u have anything around the imac so the air flow is cut off
I think so too. there is nothing obstructing the exhaust, but it sure does get hot. maybe if introduce some free cooling from the outdoor air I might be in good business. any other ideas?
Install iStat pro. http://www.islayer.com/apps/istatpro/
Post the temperatures. (in celsius)
Id be on the phone to Apple right away.
Temps look normal to me, same as my iMac.
what do you think their solution would be for a rapid overheating problem?
bring it in for repair /replacement
as the figures dont look to high , but your fanspeeds seem to be a bit low for the temps
I just installed smcFanControl. it seems to be cooling everything off by quite a bit. I set all three fans to 2000rpm, is this acceptable as default? when my ambient room temp is 56F, it's hard to believe how high the temps inside climb.![]()
