Silence shutter sound when taking picture?

Hello all,
I was curious to know if there was a way to silence the shutter sound effect when taking a picture during an ichat session. That is, so that neither I, nor the person on the opposite side, can hear it. Also, if there is a way to turn off this sound effect when taking full screenshots, please let me know. I use this feature a lot when designing presentations, and hearing this noise over my music is driving me absolutely insane.
Thanks!!

Hi,
Not simply is the short answer.
Possibles.
Go to System Preferences > Sound > Sound Effects
Turn the volume down for Alerts (iChat sounds are played as if they were System Alerts).
iTunes has it's own volume where you can adjust it to be louder of softer compared to the Master Volume setting (and therefore louder than the Alerts)
Deeper method for iChat.
Right/Control Click the app in Applications.
USe the Show Contents item
Open Contents
Open Resources.
Change name of Shutter sound.
It will now not play in iChat.
Using the Keyboard to take Screen shots invokes a sound I have not looked for (it is not associated with the Grab App in Applications/Utilities than can turn the sound Off)

    Hey Sue516
    Most countries have a law in place that requires the camera to make a shutter sound.  That being said, there is no supported method to mute the shutter sound.

  • When taking pictures with my iPhone 4S with flash the pictures are blue

    When taking pictures with my iPhone 4S and when I use the flash the pictures come out blue but wen I don't use the flash the pictures come out great. Can someone please answer my question to why that is happening

    Do you have a case on your phone? Many cases get a reflection from the sides and bleed light over the picture.
    The flash is naturally green/blue colour anyway..so it could be just that.

    freezing/hanging when taking pictures and videos  in i phone 4 with flash on.

    Hi Mister.
    Let's try to answer your questions.
    - The E5 does not have a red light when you take pictures.
    - I don't know about battery life comparing with E6 and E72, just can say on the E5 is quite good. It has a 1200 mAh battery, you should check the others, but also the features of each one, i.e. the E6 is a touchscreen one, so it consumes more power.
    - It has a notification white light, around the navigation button.
    Regards.

    debrafromusa,
    This would be an extremely bad idea, the start up tone is there for a reason. It tells you when your system is attempting to  boot, it is also necessary in the even resets like a PRAM reset are done. There is software to mask the sound however as stated it is a very poor idea.
    Also, why turn it off. Why not simply put the display to sleep when the machine is not in use. You can easily do that in System Preferences - Energy Saver

  • Turn of click sound when taking a picture

    I have a BB Tour 9630.  Is it possible to disable the clicking shutter sound the camera makes when you take a pic?

    There is nothing natively on the device that will do that.
    There are a couple of 3rd party apps that do, though.  One is called BerryAnnoying and *I think* QuickLaunch will do it but don't quote me on that one.

  • How can I capture the photo shutter sound when you take a screen shot

    I want to use the Mac's shutter sound that is used when you take a screen shot or take a Photo Booth photo. I tried Audio Hijack but it doen't capture the sound. I figure this audio file must be in the system folder somewhere.

    A camera shutter sound can be found in

  • Grey spots in photos/when taking pictures

    i recived the iphone 5 as a birthday present in october, to be precise october 3rd, and now im on a family vacation to nantucket and despite the rather crazy weathher going from gloomy to beatiful i like to take lots of picture with the amazing camera. but for some reason there are grey/ dark circles when i take pictures. they started when i got on to the ferry over to the island which is verry annoying. i dont think that they are caused by water, or dropping, or dust. the circles are perfectely circular and there are a bunch of them but one standout from the rest. does any one know why this has happened? i will probably take it to the genius bar to have it fixed, but because there are no apple stores on the island i will have to wait until i get back to the mainland. grrrrr. apple, i hope you fix this problem and do something about foxcom screwing up so many iphones. grrrrrrrr.

    I have same issue that just appeared today.  Ive had the phone since launch day and never had a problem with camera until now.  Taking it into Apple store on Friday.
