How do I change my mail notification sounds?

I saw on the preferences that I can change the sound that plays when I receive a new email but I also want a sound to play when I send one. There is a check box that says something like "use this sound for all mail notifications". but there is no drop box to pick a sound for a different mail function. Any help on this one?

there is no built in function to change it but if you really want it you can hack it as follows.
right-click on Mail on /Applications and choose "Show package contents". go to Contents->Resources. Find the file "Mail Sent.aiff" and replace it with the one you want. Give it the same name. It has to be in aiff format.
P.S. Beaten to the punch...

  • Outlook 2013 new mail notification sounds can't be changed

    I've got a weird issue with Outlook 2013 on Windows 8..  I've read several other posts that are kind of similar but they don't really apply.
    So, Outlook 2013 uses the "Desktop Mail Notification" sound event..  unless I change the .wav file assigned to that event.  Then it instead uses the "New Mail Notification" event.  Then when I change the .wav file assigned
    to THAT one, it changes again to instead use the "Notification" event.  Then when I change the .wav file assigned to "Notification," Outlook just won't play anything at all when receiving new mail.  It just flat refuses to use
    anything but the default .wav files.
    Has anyone run into this before?

    Hi,
    To change the new mail notification sound, please try the following:
    1. Right click the sound icon at the right bottom to open the sound settings.
    2. Under the
    Windows section, change both the Desktop Mail Notification and New Mail Notification
    events to have the same .wav file for the sound you want played for them.
    3. Then click OK to test the result.
    Thanks,

  • Mail notification (sound) will not change

    I cannot seem to get the mail sound to change (on my iPhone5) from the sound I had on my 4s (backed up and reloaded through iCloud).
    I have changed the sound in "settings" and regardless of that sound is chosen, the "News Flash" WILL.NOT.GO.AWAY
    I even changed it to "None" and the "News Flash" sound still chimes.
    Anyone have this issue?

    Ok so the first things that you would need to determine are as follows:  This is the best way to get this to test and see if it works for you.   First things first, set aside all the notes on configurations that you would need for 2 Accounts to configure with email.  Prior to doing this, do the reset as listed above in the directions of this post's reply.  Once you have it reset, then do the following steps:
    1.   First , set the mail notification Sound by going to Settings > Sounds > Mail , and change this here to something other than default.
    2.  Add your first email account first to the phone using the Mail Accounts and do New.  Once you have added the new account, just this first one, send a mail message to it from a PC/MAC and test to see if the sound is working other than the default meaning the sound you changed it to. 
    3.  Once you have conifrmed that it's working this way, next you will need to do, is add the 2nd account to the phone, and test that you can get mail on it.
    4.  Now that you have both accoutns, you can go into Settings>Notifications>Mail>and you will see both accounts listed there .   For me it's : Exchange, LiveMail, Icloud in that order.   All of these are clickable with touch.
    5  Touch one of them it will open the menu to allow you to change notifications including sounds.
    CHANGE all 3 accounts sounds using step 4 listed and then after you have done this for each of them accounts, test by sending emails to them.
    Let me know if you need help.
    Thanks.

  • HT1146 I want to hear the mail notification sounds. How can I get the sounds to stay active?

    I am unable to keep the mail notification sounds on mail. No message notification, nothing. I have already had two consultations with mac service personnel. Any suggestions?

    I also wanted to know, if I can assign my JV1080 to the audio Instrument tracks & manupilate both sound source. WOW that be great if Logic Pro can do this.
    If you mean play them back with the same MIDI information, and have the MIDI channel set up to control the external JV1080, yes you can. But if you mean control the Audio levels and such, I would recommend bringing the JV1080 back into logic on a Stereo input and grouping it with the Audio Instrument.
    I have the o/p of the md player going into tape i/p of the mackie 1202- VLZPRO.
    I believe the Tape inputs of a Mackie board goes straight to the output faders. Try another set of inputs.

  • When I receive and answer e-mail, the correspondence is usually "nested" with the original message, and the number of replies, etc. are indicated with a number next to the original message.  How can I change the mail settings so that every reply is listed

    When I receive and answer e-mail, the correspondence is usually "nested" "behind"  the original message, and the number of replies, etc. are indicated with a number next to the original message in the inbox.  How can I change the mail settings so that every reply is listed individually in the inbox instead of having them "stacked" behind the original message.  I'm afraid I might accidentially overlook messages the way they are handled now.

    Somebody here will correct me if I'm wrong, but what you have to do is go into Settings, Mail/Contacts/Calendars and under Mail, turn off "Organize by Thread".  I think that will make each message show individually.

    I now have my daughters iPad can you please tell me why I can't set up iCloud.in settings the iCloud is greyed out also how do I change her mail account to mine?

    To change your iCloud ID or password you have to go to Settings>iCloud, tap Delete Account, then sign back in with your other ID.  If you need to migrate any of your daughter's iCloud data to your account, choose Keep on My iPad when prompted, then choose Merge to upload it to the new account.  If not, choose Delete from My iPad.

    You say you have the pse 5 disk?
    I guess you do't have a dvd drive on your new windows 8 computer?
    Do you have access to another computer with a dvd drive?
    Anyway if you can find another computer with a dvd drive you could copy the pse 5 install disc to removable device like a camera card or flash drive.
    You can also buy cheap usb dvd drives.

  • Mail notification sound missing?

    Hi every one, this is regarding the mail notification sound in Mail application of Mac OS X Mountain Lion.
    I've configured in setting of the inbox account of mail to notify with sound whenever I recieve a new email, but unfortunately it's not happening.
    So what's the remedy for the concern???

    HI,
    For most apps the Alert Sounds are played by System Preferences > Sound Sound Effects where the volume needs to be high enough.

  • How do I customize the Push Notification sound?

    How do I customize the Push Notification sound?

    Searching the Internet, I found a solution that involves installing special software that I do not want to do.
    I also found a procedure shown below. The problem is, that switch and selection ( Notification Sound) does not exist on my iPhone.
    The current sound I appear to be getting is the Tri-Tone.  I find this hard to hear and I usually miss it, I was looking for something louder.   Sadly, the Android version of this app has the notification sounds changeable.

  • System preferences in iMac for sound output shows only headphones. How do I change this to get sound through computer? Thanks.

    In sound System preferences on iMac  headphones is only option for sound output. How do I change this to get sound output through computer, as in a video etc. Thanks.

    There is a switch in the jack that may be stuck. Try plugging and unplugging a headset plug into the socket a few times.
    You might try dipping the headset plug into some pure alcohol, wiping it nearly dry, and repeating the process to clean/clear the socket.
