Overheating 15" Pro when using Adobe Lightroom

[james hunt]

Hi need some help, having what i believe to be an hardware issue with my Mac.

When importing images from SD card into Adobe Lightroom, my mac gets hot within seconds of starting import. Due to the heat increase the cooling fans speed up with becomes rather annoying.

This cant be normal, can it?

Hello and welcome.

-Which exact version of OS X?
-Which exact version of Adobe Lightroom?
-Does it do the same if importing from a USB flash drive or hard drive?
-Have you tried another SD card?
-What is the cloud icon in the menu bar to the left of the Adobe Creative Cloud icon?

There have been many reports of small incompatibilities between Adobe Lightroom CC 2015 (version 5.x and 6.x) and macOS Sierra: Lightroom and Sierra | macOS 10.12
