If Apple accessibility is correct and it is considered to be a sound
effect, hopefully there will indeed be a volume for effects in general as
e. T. is suggesting.

Actually, with the startup sound, I don’t even know if you can change the
volume. Maybe in terminal, but I don’t think I can even change the volume level

I am not interested in doing this in the terminal, although I imagine
Johnathan's information will help someone.
Instead I am interested in where the settings for system volume are located.
I intend on Thursday to have sighted help adjust this setting, I am not
solid enough in voiceover as of
what I am still missing is where one changes the system volume itself.
I understand that about voiceover volume, but the start up sound is a
system volume effect, and unless I missed a post, the details for
adjusting system volume have not been shared?

My information from apple accessibility is that there is a checkbox for
the start up sound under system preferences, sound, sound effects.

Hi,
Basically, sound effects are at the same volume as the system. So, if you
have your volume set to 50%, then the sound effects will also be played at 50%.
VoiceOver has its own level that is changed with the system volume, but it
depends on where VO volume is set to begin with. For

And I wish to also know where system sound effects volume is managed, as
I dare say it differs from say voiceover volume.

Hi,
If your volume is set low, then, yes, the startup chime will normally be set
low as well. Are you saying that when you restart, or startup your computer
from scratch, you do not hear any startup chime?

Hi Tim,
My understanding is that this is the very last Mac os before big shore,
which may be why the sound is missing.
As i am profoundly new to all this, I want to insure I have it, was never a
windows user so all this boot time makes me crazy laughs.
What about turning up the sound if
Hi,
The startup chime was a computer specific item in that model of Mac. That is,
the startup chime should still work normally on that device without any
intervention in System Preferences. I’m willing to be corrected, but I also
believe that the checkbox that they’re speaking of was not

Heres a very dependable back up power supply.

It will supply 12 amps which takes care of most all your needs.
The price tag is worth it though.

Kelly, go to the extra's menu and access the volume. In there you will be
able to access your outputs without activating them. I'm not in front of my
Mac so can't give exact steps but this should get you going.

Hi,
This is due to the mouse cursor following the VO cursor, which is the preferred
configuration in my opinion. To get around this, once you enter the table of
output choices, press VO-shift-f3 to turn cursor tracking off. This does
though create a complication when trying to select the

Hi,
Maybe I’m missing it but is there a way to move through the list of sound
sources for output and not have each sound source selected as you move. For
example, if my Mac output is set to speakers, the next item in order in my list
of sound sources in the table is my Apple TV device. The
