  • Programatically enable-disable check box"play user interface sound effects"

    Hello All,
    I have been Working on something where i need to disable the "play user interface sound effects" check box ( Under System preferences under sound panel ) for few seconds and then enable the same programically without any user interface appearing on the screen. I know something related using the Applescript however there is a user interface appearing there which doesn't serve the purpose please help with some solution.If you could provide the exact location of the plist file which holds this information then that could help as well.

    Hi !
    I too have been working with the sounds ( Which i think is relates to @mit's query ) in an application and the problem is that when ever that application moves something to trash there is a sound which comes the sound of "throwing things in the trash". This is very annoying and i want to do something so that I can suppress that sound atleast for the time this application is on. Now is there some way where I can do this Programically . It would even be fine if I could turn off the user interface sounds completely for sometime and then bring them back on.
    Thanks In Advance !
    Looking Forward To Some response soon !

    Hello wilsona1234,
    Sorry for the trouble. What is the exact detection from Norton for the installation file? Did you download itunes from the legitimate Apple web site? What is the error you are referring to?
    Thanks,

    If you are having trouble keeping your fan from operating quietly, I recommend smcFanControl: http://www.eidac.de/
    This is a program that runs in the menu bar, where you can manually regulate the power and temperature of your computer. I have had some problems where if I have it on low and I am using it on a bed or carpet, it can overheat without the fan kicking in to cool it down.
    If you need to replace, the new Macbook Pro with Retina Display has a phenomenal cooling system that I highly recommend.

  • Volume off but still have sound

    I'm having issues that when my volume is off, I still get notification sounds playing and when I send an email, the send sound still plays.  Any suggestions?

    Try a reset:
    Hold the Sleep and Home button down for about 10 second until you see the Apple logo.

  • My apps wont open, i already tried turning the power off but still they wont open :(

    I really dont know what happened that all of my apps just wont open. I tried turning the power off but they were still crashing. Help please!!

    Try to reset the device by holding the sleep and home button for about 10sec, until the Apple logo comes back again.
    If this does not help, set it up as new device: How to back up your data and set up as a new device

  • File share is off but still accessible by guest

    I have turned file sharing off, but the Guest account is still able to access my main account.  I am on OS 10.8.5.  File sharing is unchecked in Sharing Prefs, and the only areas on Sharing are Public folders (but those shouldn't be shared since sharing is off in general, correct?).  However, Guest can see Desktop, Documents, Music, etc.

    You could change the permissions on your home folder to NOT allow guest.  BUT BE VERY CAREFUL WITH PERMISSION CHANGES!  I have seen people use the "Apple to Enclosed Items..." destroy their Mac, forcing either a restore from backup or a fresh install from scratch, so do not get too paranoid, or you may succeed in keeping yourself away from your data as well.
    Or do not allow Guests to login to your Mac.

  • Send as SMS is off but still being sent as SMS

    Hi, I've turned off Send As SMS but I did a test to send a message to a number that is not an iOS device and it still sent it as a regular SMS. I checked my usage on Verizon and it does show it counted as a text message thus costing me money.
    What happened? I know when I first got the iPhone 4S, it worked i.e when attempting to send to a non iOS device not having iMesaage, it warn and didn't send it. But now it appears to be broken. I'm on latest iOS firmware.

    Thanks for the response. That makes sense.
    But is there an explanation why then when I send to a known iOS device with iMessage and having the send as SMS off, it still sent as SMS?
    Over the weekend, my wife text me (her setting is ON) and it was showing up as green. She was surprised since I have told her that she has to watch out for the blue/green color when we first got the phone. Immediately I respond and it was also green back to her. All the previous text messages were in blue between us.
    I restarted my phone and iMessage then worked as expected i.e showing blue when I try to message her.

    Try resetting the SMC.
    MacBook and MacBook Pro with a battery you can remove
    Shut down the computer.
    Disconnect the MagSafe power adapter from the computer, if it's connected.
    Remove the battery.
    Press and hold the power button for 5 seconds.
    Release the power button.
    Reconnect the battery and MagSafe power adapter.
    Press the power button to turn on the computer
    To reset the SMC on newer Mac portables with a battery you cannot remove
    Shut down the computer.
    Plug in the MagSafe power adapter to a power source, connecting it to the Mac if its not already connected.
    On the built-in keyboard, press the (left side) Shift-Control-Option keys and the power button at the same time.
    Release all the keys and the power button at the same time.
    Press the power button to turn on the computer.  
    Note: The LED on the MagSafe power adapter may change states or temporarily turn off when you reset the SMC.

  • MIDI on Hardware synth off, but still sounds airy & flanged W record enable

    How do I get the output that I am monitoring on an audio track, with record enable to sound like it normally does when I listen to the output of my synth with headphones?
    Currently, it sounds like there is a cheap flange effect...

    Yes, I tried the first 2 suggestions, but with software monitoring off, I don't hear the synth at all.
    - I tried unplugging the midi cables, but then, because local is off, the syth is playing what the computer is feeding it, via the MIDI input, and it stops sounding the notes pressed when I unplugged the MIDI cables.
    There is basic misunderstanding going on.
    You mentioned recording to an -Audio- track in your first post. If you have Local OFF, you shouldn't hear anything when selecting and monitoring an -audio- track.
    {/quote}
    - I recorded the midi on the midi track. -
    It's actually possible to record-enable more than one track at a time, but in this case, the audio track was not record enabled. - The MIDI goes to the selected midi track, and it was selected.
    The only way I can hear my synth is through logic's monitoring, unless plug headphones into the mono output of the EX7. but that wont fix the issue, as I want to hear everything together... To just get down to making music, I could go through the dread of deleting the doubled over notes, but I don't have time for that.
    What is happening, is that Logic is sending double data to my Synth. I'm pretty sure it's an environment issue.
    Since logic 8 is so easy to rewire with Reason, I have not changed anything in the environment, except ... hmm... Yes I did actually; I created MIDI objects for Reason, to control it via MIDI, to go along with the Rewire. - I set that up correctly, and just experimented with deleting those objects, but the problem persists. I'm looking at the basic MIDI setup in the environment, and it's bare... I have not set up my Synth in there yet apparently. - Perhaps that is the problem.
    Here are some pics I've uploaded to show you what is going on, on my screen:
    http://criticalunity.org/TRASHNOW/
    - Picture 10.png shows that acoording to what I just tested as well; Software instruments triggered with my Synth are still affected, because Logic is recoding the notes 3 times. The prple notes are ones I dragged off, and they were 'one note' before... (supposed to be)
    - Picture 6.png shows the tracks, and how I'm monitoring.
    - Picture 8.png and 9.png show my untouched midi instrument environment.
    {quote}The MIDI setup is another can of worms.
    Here's some quick things to try...
    Did you setup cabling to your MIDI interface and Keyboard in AUDIO/MIDI setup, under the MIDI tab.
    If so, I would delete it now all you need to see is your MIDI interface.
    EX7 Environment Multi setup:
    A single Multi Instrument setup for the EX7 in the Environment, on the left control area, under "Channel" it should say ALL. Name the Multi to "EX7" or whatever..
    Back on the Arrange Page select a MIDI track.
    The Inspector on the left should show:
    Port: Select the MIDI interface port you're using, do not select ALL.
    Under Channel, select 1
    If you have a Multi setup correctly with patch names you will see them under program.{/quote}
    - I believe that this is the can of worms that needs to opened immediately - (Getting can opener)
    - Okay, I'll try the MIDI suggestions, but what I have now is yes, EX7 is connected to the MIDI interface inside the system's audio-MIDI setup, and inside Logic, it is set up to be connected to port A, the port it is physically connected to.
    In logic's enviro, it shows on the left 'EX7' when I look in the drop down menu, and then 'Port A' .
    On the right, next to the EX7 object, there is another one called 'GM device' , which is actually set to 'All'. - Have I hit the nail on the head? .. We'll see...
    (I'm going to go experiment in there now, I'll keep you posted, pun intended

  • Can't turn off user interface sound effects

    Unchecking the box in system prefs has no effect at all. A few minutes later the box is checked again, and I have to keep hearing those annoying sounds. Any ideas why it keeps turning itself back on?

    As some have noticed and posted other issues, [[https://support.mozilla.org/questions/1038464]], [[https://support.mozilla.org/questions/1038142]] , this relates to the Notification.
    The notification is behind the sound and is controlled by System Preferences --> Notifications --> Thunderbird --> "Play sound for notifications". Tick that off and that's it.

  • Ipod Nano touch - voice over off, but still talks.

    Hello,
          I bought my boyfriend the ipod nano multi-touch back in March. We couldn't seem to get the voice to stop interrupting our music. Then one day my boyfriend calls me down to the car to hear something weird... So, I go down and the ipod was going crazy. Over our car speakers it was playing a song for about 3 seconds and then giving all the info about the song, then it changed the song and did this over and over again. We took it to apple and they took it into the back for a few minutes. When they came back they said that they heard what it was doing when they plugged in their headphones to the ipod. They also said that they turned the voice over off and that was our problem.... okay that was about a month ago. Now... its doing all over again! The bizarre thing is that the voice over is off... we've done the restart and the resetting but nothing seems to be working. When the voice over thing isn't going crazy, it skips songs with out us touching it... This is very frustrating! If anybody has any idea how to fix this or any information on if apple can help or replace please let me know.
                                     Thank you! 

    Something is shorting out inside the iPod or something is shorting out the headset you are using, if it has buttons on the wire.
    Even if voiceover is turned off, you can still make a 6th Gen Nano speak. What you are hearing is the track information. The nano will speak this to you if you press and hold the button on your headset (assuming you have a headset with buttons). If water gets into those buttons, it can cause the button to act like it is being pressed, pressed and held, etc.
    This can also happen if moisture gets inside the Nano.
    Does this only happen after exercise? Has it gotten wet?
    First, make sure it gets totally dried out. You can put it in a baggie with some rice to dry it out - just make sure none of the rice gets into the headset jack!
