My MacBook Pro 13" fan running all the time

My MacBook Pro 13" fan running all the time and restarts very often as well, several times every day. Can this be helped?

Best if we know your MacBook Pro's sub-model, from "About this Mac"



There are many MBP variations so knowing the exact sub-model keeps us from giving your bad advise,


In normal operation, high fans speeds area designed response to excessive internal heat. Make certain t\you have not blocked important air intake and exhaust points, especailly the hinge area. Do not use the computer on your lap, a pillow, or blanket without using a hard lap board.
