How do I disable the startup sound on macbook pro 7,1?

I need to disable the startup sound on the macbook pro 7,1 running 10.6.8.  If anyone can give me info I would appreciate it.

Look for Startup Sound on Macupdate.com
You really shouldn't turn it off, as if there is a error you won't be able to hear the beep codes.
However you can lower the volume.

    I was going to suggest doing the Following from the Link I added below to see if Silence Mode would silence the power up but on my Droid Maxx it does not the start up Droid is still present so I'm not really sure there is an option to silence it.
    The First Link is for the ( Ultra Droid Maxx and Mini)  the Second Link is for the Droid Turbo. the instructions for the two style of phones are the same..  as far as I could tell

    how do i turn off the startup sound on macbook pro?

    You don't. You may find some third-party software that will, however. Try Auto Mute.
    Alternatively, you can try this:
    I think this is the best and simplest solution. Open a Terminal window and type (or copy/paste) the following to turn down the startup noise:
         sudo nvram SystemAudioVolume="%00"
    Press RETURN.
    And to restore it to the original value type:
         sudo nvram -d SystemAudioVolume
    Press RETURN.
    That's all folks.

  • How do I mute the startup sound

    How do I mute the startup sound on my imac

    The start up sound is there for specific reasons, for example if you do a Safe Boot or PRAM reset  you need the start up sound to do those key functions. I would recommend against masking it and follow Apple's suggestions.  Please read your owners manual, where Apple states:
    Putting Your iMac to Sleep
    If you‘ll be away from your iMac for less than a few days, put it to sleep. When your iMac is in sleep, its screen is dark. You can quickly wake your iMac and bypass the startup process.
    This means don't turn it off, my iMac is about 5 years old now. The only time it's restarted is when I'm doing updates, it has reliably that way and has never given me any problems. In short, let it sleep when it's not being used.

  • How do I enable the startup sound on Mac OS 10.2.8(Jaguar)

    Three things
    1.How do I enable the startup sound on Mac OS 10.2.8(Jaguar)
    I am using an iMac G4
    I like the startup chime of mac osx but it doesn't seem to be chiming when I turn the computer on.
    2. How do I get safari+flash player  on 10.2.8
    3. How do I update the computer (e.g. Windows update kind off thing)
    Please help.
    Cheers,
    Mittens131

    1. Make sure the volume is on. Check that the machine makes other sounds.
    2. Here is a link for Safari for a Mac 10.2.8
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT2964
    Though I'd be surprised if it would be very useful. Things have changed a lot on the internet since that came out. An old version of Firefox might be better. I don't know where you would get an old version of flash. It is an Adobe product.
    3. There are no further updates to  Jaguar 10.2 than you already have, 10.2.8 that was the last update.

  • How do i disable the startup splash screen in elements 9

    How do i disable the startup splash screen in elements 9

    Try making a direct shortcut for the Organizer and Editor. Make sure you have the correct file path as there is more than one exe file. You can then launch the programs directly from the desktop bypassing the welcome screen. This is generally better as the welcome screen leaves background processes running.
    On Windows, Right click anywhere on the desktop and select New >> Shortcut
    Then click the browse button and navigate to:
    "C:\Program Files\Adobe\Elements 9 Organizer\PhotoshopElementsOrganizer.exe"
    Then click Next; then click Finish
    Then make a direct shortcut for the Editor in a similar manner.
    On Windows, Right click anywhere on the desktop and select New >> Shortcut
    Then click the browse button and navigate to:
    "C:\Program Files\Adobe\Photoshop Elements 9\PhotoshopElementsEditor.exe"
    Then click Next; then click Finish
    N.B. on 64 bit systems navigate to Program Files (x86)

  • I have a MS Office for Mac CD, how do I install the software onto my MacBook Pro (Retina Display)?

    I have a MS Office for Mac CD, how do I install the software onto my MacBook Pro (Retina Display)? It does not have a CD drive.

    If all else fails, try this.  i used to do it all the time before. might or might not work with the new office.
    if you have access to another computer with a cd/dvd rom, copy the entire contents of the cd on a thumb drive.
    insert the thumb drive in your MB and do the install from there.
    However, if you have the newer version of MS Office, Bandit's suggestion is much better.

  • How do I change the name of my macbook pro?

    How do I change the name of my macbook pro.  My full name is listed on it and I want to change that.  In the upper right hand corner it is correct but all that lists is my login name.

    Mr. Pat, there are some people who still try to do that, but you are risking losing all your music, photos, email, etc. It is not for the faint of heart.  This page, albeit published in 2003 by Dr. Smoke, is still pretty valid, IMHO:

    Here's the opening copy:

    It is a grave mistake to rename your Home folder -- changing its file name from johnsmith toJohn, for example -- in an attempt to change the short name for your account when using Mac® OS X.

    Not very helpful. Micron / Crucial makes maybe 2000 RAM types. If all you have is the RAM and the label you may be thin on luck.
    Reading the manual +*that came with the mac*+ is one resource, regrettably rarely used before posting here.
