Mac Startup Sound

Hi, is there anyway that I could lower the volume of the startup noise, but does not affect my system's sound volume?
I am not looking for a way to turn off the volume.. Just want to lower it.

Try this.

How do I disable the Mac Startup Sound?

http://www5e.biglobe.ne.jp/~arcana/StartupSound/BETA/index.en.html
I tried that but it doesn't work for me. Must be outdated?

There is a software utility program available from Marcel Bresink that is called Tinker Tool System. In this program under start up options is an option to mute the start up sound.

24" iMac Startup Sound

I recently upgraded my PPC G4 to a brand new 24" iMac.
On my G4, the mac startup sound would play over the external speakers, and when booting the computer late at night, I could turn down the volume to avoid waking my roommates.
The new iMac 24" seems to blast the startup sound, even if I mute the volume before shutting down.
Does anyone else have external speakers hooked up to their new 24"? Does the boot sound come from the external or internal speakers?

One of the oddities of the iMac line is that the startup sound comes from the internal speakers. If you have external speakers plugged in and unpowered, it makes no difference, you still get a "BLING" when you start up. And since the 24" machine has extra big speakers and bigger audio amp, you get an extra big BLING! Nice, eh?
You might try the freeware utility called "Psst" <http://www.versiontracker.com/dyn/moreinfo/macosx/25458>. I haven't tried it, but it does seem to be able to silence the startup sound on most Macs.

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.

All text tones are available in General-Sounds. Some are missing via Contacts-Edit Contact.

I have confirmed that this issue is also present in the iPhones in the Apple store as of 28-April-2014. I told one of the guys in the Apple store about it and he said that the iPhones in the store have a custom version, so I asked him to check his own iPhone. He did, and the issue is present on his phone, so it's definintely a general IOS7 iPhone issue.
If you go to General -> Sounds -> Text Tone -> Classic, you can see all the classic text tones.
If you go to Contacts, select a contact, select Edit -> Text Tone -> select Classic, some are missing.
I used Choo Choo for one of my contacts while I was on IOS6 and when I switched to a new phone with IOS7 and performed a restore, their text tone changed to Tri-tone. I tried to change it back and saw it was not availble, so I figured they had taken it out of IOS7. Then I heard a friend's iPhone 5 on IOS 7 who had Choo Choo set up as their default. I investigated and saw that more Classic text tones were available via General.
Is there some logical reason why some text tones are not available for Contacts?

Do you maybe have your contacts separated into groups? If so, perhaps you have unchecked the group that the missing contact are in.
In the Contacts app, click the Groups button in the upper left corner. Make sure all groups have a check mark next to them.

Mac Air running Lion How to mute or turn down startup sound

I go to library alot and need to mute or turn down startup sound.
Any help?

Turn the volume down before you shut down the MBair, the startup tone should be the same volume as when you shut down.

Is there any way to change or remove the 'text-tone' sound iPhone's make when sending an SMS/iMessage.

Is there any way to change or remove this sound? The same sound is played if an SMS / message is received while a chat window is open, regardless of your 'text-tone' sound settings. Any ideas on how to change or fix this issue? Thanks.

No, there is no way of changing that particular sound. Sounds like a blip.

I am suddenly not getting a text tone when receiving a text - all other sounds work fine

I am suddenly not getting a text tone when receiving a text. All other sounds work and text tone is checked in settings.

I finally discovered that the problem is with a single text tone and all the rest work fine. The text tone not working is one I purchased from iTunes about 2 weeks ago and it worked fine up until 2 days ago. When the text tone is still there and it plays when I manually select it, but there is no sound when I get a text. Anyone have any ideas on what the problem is or how to fix it?

No Startup Sound Mac

Hi.
My startup sound disappeared again. I know there's a key-chain that can fix it, but i don't remember it. Help!!
Thank you all

This could indicate a hardware problem unless you (or someone that has access to your computer) did something to remove the start up tone. However first check the obvious, is the volume turned up? However the first thing to try is restart in Safe Mode, this will clear some caches but I doubt it will help. If you still have a problem after checking the volume and restarting in Safe Mode then run Apple Hardware Test in extended mode at least 3 times back to back. If any errors are reported the next stop is your local Apple Store or AASP to be repaired.

Hello,
Bootup holding CMD+r, or the Option/alt key to boot from the Restore partition & use Disk Utility from there to Repair the Disk, then Repair Permissions.
If that doesn't help Reinstall the OS.

MMS is a carrier issue... contact Verizon and ensure your account is provisioned correctly. I would think that someone would be intelligent enough to do that before buying a new device, but......
iMessage could be an activation issue or a network issue.
Have you tried Settings > General > Reset > Reset Network Settings?
Does iMessage work consistently on Wi-Fi?

Hi, my brand new iphone 4 will not play music through my music app but it will play videos through youtube and will play the sounds throught my games and will play text tones and facetime ect. what is wrong?

At least I'm not the only one with the issue. I was looking it up so see if others had the same problem and found a bunch of posts about it. I'm assuming it's not the phone then, it's the software. Should I bring it to the Apple Store? Replacing the phone seems stupid, because the phone isn't really the problem. It's the software! Maybe the iOS 5.0.2 will fix it??? I don't really want to wait though, it's a pain. If a lot of people have this issue it should get Apple's attention. They need to do something to fix it, ASAP!
