Setting the beep sound
Many programs have the computer make a sound when your
attention is required or when you’re attempting an action that the
computer cannot perform at that time.
You can choose the type of beep sound that you want your
computer to make. You can also set the sound’s volume.
1. Choose Control Panels from the Apple (K) menu.
2. Open the Sound control panel.
The Sound control panel appears. The beep that your
computer is currently using is already selected.
3. Click the beep sound that you want your computer to
use.
When you click a sound to select it, it’s played at the current
volume setting.
4. Drag the slider up or down to set the volume.
If you set the volume to zero, instead of hearing a beep, you’ll
see the menu bar flash.
5. Close the Sound control panel.
