The traditional "click" when changing the volume, the sound of the trigger when taking a screenshot or emptying the trash during the same action. These are the sounds we are used to in OS X, but they are not always useful when our computer emits such signals. However, it is not a problem to turn them off.
Apple computers are used by many people for presentation purposes because of their ease of use and Keynote. However, there is nothing worse than when a presenter connects to a speaker system in the hall, the volume of which is set to maximum, and then wants to mute the sound on their computer. A deafening "click" comes from the speakers and the eardrums crack.
Therefore, there is nothing easier than turning off these sound effects in the settings. However, it's not just a volume change, you can also turn off the sound signaling of taking a screenshot and emptying the trash.
In System Preferences, select Sound and under the tab Sound effects two checkboxes are hidden. If we want to deactivate the sound effect when changing the volume, we uncheck it Play response when volume changes, if we want to disable the sound effect when taking a screenshot and emptying the trash, we uncheck it Play UI effects.
Of course, some of these sound effects can also be prevented by simply turning down the sound to a minimum, but then of course you won't hear any sounds from your computer at all.
you should clean it up after yourself…
If we want to disable the sound effect when the volume changes, we uncheck Play response when volume changes, if we want to disable the sound effect when taking a screenshot and emptying the trash, we uncheck Play response when volume changes… Really?!
In System Preferences, select Sound, and under the Sound Effects tab there are two check boxes. If we want to deactivate the sound effect when the volume changes, we uncheck Play response when volume changes, if we want to deactivate the sound effect when taking a screenshot and emptying the trash, we uncheck Play response when volume changes.
A bit wrong, right?
Someone discovered America here :)
I see that there are a ton of smarter people here, it's true that the author could clarify it himself, but you could also read the contributions in the discussion (especially when there are 4) and not write all the same warnings...
Otherwise, the contribution pleasantly surprised me, because I know OS X to death, but I had no idea about this - so it's true that the sounds never bothered me....
I hold shift while turning up the sound and it goes without sound…
