How do I change the noise at start up?

I remember changing the noise my Mac makes when I turn it on when I first bought it, but I can no longer remember how to do so. Could someone please tell me where I can find the option.
Thanks

shauniemac,
Gulliver & Allan are absolutely correct.
The Startup Chime is part of the power on self test, and resides in the ROM.
If a fault is detected during the test, you will not hear a normal startup chime.
It is not an audio file that can be changed to another sound.
The Startup Chime is also needed to run certain troubleshooting procedures, such as resetting the PRAM.
Here ae two more utilities that will allow you to manipulate the volume.
Psst & Startup Chime Stopper.
You can also depress the Mute key went starting up.

  • How Do I Change the Language of Start Menu and Modern Apps After I Installed Windows? Applying Language Pack only Localizes Traditional Applications?

    Howdy,
    I installed Windows 10 Technical Preview with original language settings for the US region.
    No that I need my Windows localized to Espanol - Spanish.
    I type "language' in Cortana, select Add language to this device and click Add a language on the Region & language.
    Then I select added language and click Set as primary.
    After the restart I see that while Windows Explorer is displayed in Spanish, Start menu is displayed in English (including app sections such as Explore Windows), as well as Modern apps that have retained their English names (such as Mail).
    I even set the location to Spain in regional settings (although I didn't like the idea, as I want to browse the US market). To no avail.
    How do I change the language of the Start menu and modern apps?
    Thank you.
    Well this is the world we live in And these are the hands we're given...

    Okay, I ran the in-place upgrade and it worked!
    What I did:
    1. Downloaded and attached Espanol edition of Windows Setup ISO.
    2. Started setup.exe from that ISO.
    TIP: If need be, you can downgrade your installation of Windows 10 Enterprise Technical Preview to Windows 10 Pro Technical Preview by changing two registry values, EditionID and ProductName. You may use the following registry file on Windows 10 Enterprise
    Technical Preview:
    Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00
    [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion]
    "EditionID"="Professional"
    "ProductName"="Windows 10 Pro Technical Preview"
    Import these settings into registry and start setup wizard from the Windows 10 Pro Technical Preview setup CD. Voila! Windows will offer upgrade of your current setup of Windows 10 Enterprise Technical Preview to Windows 10 Pro Technical Preview with
    saving all your settings and applications!
    The only thing that wasn't localized are the new app sections. I still see Explore Windows and Everyday apps. Probably, these UI strings haven't yet been translated.

  • How can I change the password to start my i-Mac G3

    We received an i-Mac from my daughter and my wife chose a password which she has since forgotten. We'd like to use it (after letting it vegetate for over one year) but wonder if it's possible to assign a new password?

    Mac OS X:
    Changing or resetting an account password via GUI:
    http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=106156
    Changing password from single user mode:
    You can also change the administrator's password from single user mode or create a new administrator account.
    You need to get into single use mode for steps one and two that are listed below.
    This page will tell you how to get into single user mode.
    http://www.securemac.com/macosxsingleuser.php
    Basically, you hold down the command-s key when powering on. The command key has a little apple symbol on the lower left. It is between the alt/option key and the space bar. On a PC keyboard, it will be the windows key, I think.
    1) You can change the password on an account. ( Do you know Unix. You are in a Unix single user console. )
    Follow the instructions on screen for accessing the startup disk in read/write mode which are:
    /sbin/fsck -y
    /sbin/mount -uaw
    To find out the users on the system type:
    ls /Users
    One of these accounts will be the administrator.
    Pick one of the users and type:
    passwd a-user-name
    and enter the new user password. You need six characters.
    The root account isn't enabled by default. I am not sure if changing the password on root will enable it.
    2) Get the Mac to set up an additional administrative account. You can then change the password on your old account.

    OK, restart your computer, hold down Command-s and type in the following:
    /sbin/fsck -y [Enter]
    /sbin/mount -uaw [Enter]
    rm /var/db/.applesetupdone [Enter]
    # The rm command is the remove command which deletes the file.
    # Robert: I'd rename the file via: mv /var/db/.applesetupdone /var/db/.applesetupdone.old
    reboot [Enter]
    Once you've done that the computer reboots and it's like the first time you used the machine. Your old accounts are all safe. From there you just change all other account passwords in the account preferences!!

    You will need to scroll down to see this post. Search for applesetupdone
    Once you have a new administrative account, you can change the password of your old administrative account

  • How do I change the default Firefox Start Page tab to a tab I want

    When I start my FF browser with my chosen homepage, a default tab labeled "Mozilla Firefox Start Page" appears. I would like change that tab permanently from Firefox to Facebook. How do I do that?

    Thanks, it worked. I didn't try it before because I thought it would change my original home page, but it didn't. So basically I have two home pages - one as the main page and one as a tab. Thanks again!

    How can I change the default start up folder to be d:\work\ ?
    It seems to be going to one default folder every time I open that I didn't suggest.
    I'm using Bridge CS4
    Thanks ahead
    Line

    If the program does not open the last folder you visited you most likely have the option enabled to autoload Bridge on Startup.  Either disable that option  in PS or shut Bridge down before you shut off the computer.
    Message was edited by: curt y
    If you always want it to start on a specific folder you can leave it on autoload, go to folder you want it to start on then exit Bridge.  It should load this each time in future.  Many of us discourage the autoload option as it can lead to other problems as well.
