Changing the Sound Volume when the comuter starts up

Whenever I start or restart my computer the start up sound is blasting out of the speakers. Does anyone know how I can lower the volume so I'm not blasting out my officemates every time I start up the computer. Any suggestions are appreciated, Thanks

Hi savannahrain and welcome to Apple discussions.
Try StartupSound PrefPane.
Goodluck,

The sound volume in the videoproject is too low

Hallo,
In Adobe Premiere Elements I3 made several projects. I used the tool Normalisation for the audio in a clip. Untill now this was functioning well. But at the present time I have a problem. Likely I have made a mistake with one of the settings. But I don't know which mistake.
After the Normalisation of the sound in the clip the graphic rendition in the picture in the track Comment is as it should be.
But the real sound is now too low. In the sound mixer I can see that the level of the sound doesn't come higher than -12 where it should actually be 0.
I must have changed an overall setting somewhere with the result that the sound actually is too low.
My question is: how can I restore the old situation where the sound volume was correct?
Thank you in advance.

My first impression of what you describe is this...
1. If you were making audio adjustments with Clip Gain dialog, what happens if you bring up
the Clip Gain dialog and change the value there from -12 to 0.0 dB for the audio clips whose values
have gone from 0 to -12?
More later.

The Sound stop when the movie change

Hello,
I am doing a Director movie that calls another movie.
How can I do to the sound do not stop when the movie
change?

Chrome has its own Flash Player plugin called "PepperFlash". It functions independently of the ActiveX plugin for IE. ActiveX causes more problems for IE than it will ever solve... and for that reason, I don't use Microsoft's pathetic excuse for a browser. It's pure garbage.
I recommend using any other browser.
Firefox (from Mozilla)
Opera (from Opera)
Safari (from Apple)
Chrome (from Google)
ANY of those will work where IE11 won't, with the Flash Player Plug-in (For all other browsers), and Chrome doesn't even need that because it has its own Flash Player plugin built in.

The sound volume

The sound volume when I startup my computer always reverts back to a lower volume—even though I use the F12 key to increase the volume.
Is there a way to set the volume so it remains at my desires setting after restarting the computer?
Thanks.

So in the last few days I’ve noticed that pressing my volume change keys actually isn’t changing the volume on my macbook pro at all. When I press the volume up or down keys, it makes the recognisable pop sound but stays at the same volume while the squares go up or down. I mute it but my computer still makes sound. It’s the same with the volume control up the top of the screen, too. I slide it up and down and it doesn’t change the volume at all. The only way I can change the volume is with my speakers or the program I’m in (iTunes, VLC etc). I restarted and it seems to be okay then I go to change it a couple minutes later and it’s back to not working again.
I’ve checked my settings- the “use all F1, F2, etc. keys as standard fuction keys” is not switched on, and I have tried a suggestion of moving the com.apple.systempreferences.plist file out of the library and onto the desktop and restarting and neither of those seem to make any difference whatsoever. I’ve tried to find online forums but the only suggestions I found were those two and they didn’t work.
I’m just annoyed because I usually have the worst luck with technology but my macbook had been going strong and I got it because of the apparent lack of things that could go wrong, but of course even if there is one thing that could go wrong it will happen to me.
Please help!

You migh give resetting your NVRAM a try:

My iPod touch has no sound when I play music or use the iPod touch at all. Yes, the volume in the "sounds" is all the way up. It has not been dropped or gotten wet. I turned it off and on. now what?

My ipod touch (4th generation) has no sound. I have turned it off and on.....I have the volume up in the "sounds" area. When I push the side volume button, there is no image that appears in the screen that shows that I am either raising or lowering the volume. Do I need to just rest the ipod touch as a new device? Or is there someting else I can try?

And, now when I do press the side volume buttons, the image appears but with the words' "sound effects." what does that mean?

I have lost sound on my iPad in apps unless I use headphones ,does anyone know how to get sound back without them .I have used the mute volume on the bar at bottom of screen and the slider volume control there only shows when headphones are plugged in !

I also tried resetting settings all to no avail ...I looked up some advice and watched utube video advice on how to fix without success..
The volume control button on side does not work ,I got the iPad last August and wonder if it is a fault that means I must return it for replacement from where it was purchased ?

The Retrospect you used way back when is no longer around. The company was sold and that company produced a new version of Retrospect - Retrospect 8.x
So, as you've been told, you would have to be running a Tiger system with an old version of Retrospect software (5.x or 6.x - you would need to know) assuming you can find the software.
As best I can remember you cannot extract files from a Retrospect backup except using the software since Retrospect did not normally make a file by file backup rather it created an archive of the files in the backup. I'm assuming that the EMC/Retrospect people have told you that old Retrospect backups are not accessible by Retrospect 8.x?

Basic troubleshooting from the User's Guide is reset, restart, restore (first from backup then as new). Try each of these in order until the issue is resolved.
If the issue continues, take the device to Apple for evaluation and possible replacement.

Remove all apps from multitasking bar. Double click Home button then tap and hold an icon and tap on little x on every app. Then reset. Hold down Home and Power button until Apple logo appears.

Try this version that I put together. I attached the sound playing to the onClick function at the bottom. This may not be the correct place, you can move the code to any function that you like. The sound will not play from the variable declaration section of the class, it really needs to be in a function.

In Flash the sound does not play only started from the beginning. Can anyone please help?

In Flash, the sound only plays if the file is started from the beginning. The sound doesn't play if starting from anywhere other than the beginning.
This is very frustrating when trying to sync the animation with the sound as it's not possible to scroll back and forward with the sound playing. The only way the sound works is if it is started from the beginning.
If anyone can help that would be fantastic.
Thanks

Hi Jeromie,
Many thanks for your help. Here is some additional information, which may shed light on the problem.
I am using Flash Professional CC 2014.0 release, Build 14.0.0.110
The computer I'm using is then iMac running OSX version 10.9.3 Build 13D65 2.7 GHz Intel Core i5
I am using Flash, not a web-based editor that leverages Flash Player.
"a direct link to the project or tool would be useful in allowing us to attempt to reproduce the problem" - Not sure how to do this, how can I add the project to the forum?
Many thanks once again for your help, let me know if you need more information.
Cheers
Michael

E72: How to mute the loudspeaker volume when playi...

When I use the Media Player it seems to be playing MP3 not on a speaker, but on a
loudspeaker only.
How do I mute the loudspeaker volume when playing my MP3 recordings - basically what I need is to be able to play recordings on a speaker (but not on a loudspeaker, which is on a back side of the phone - next to camera) only.
Thanks

I am not sure I understand. There are only two ways to play sounds on an E72, through the earpiece and through the speaker. Are you talking about a set of Bluetooth stereo speakers? I have never used anything like this, but maybe someone else can give a recommendation.
When the Music Player is running, I am also not aware of a mute key, although other Nokia phones may have this feature. I think sometimes the Talk Key has weird functions on some phones, but not on my E73. If you want to mute (or pause) playback, I have always done it the old fashioned way, by bringing Music Player to the front and pressing pause.
