No Brakes! (Beep Yeah!) Mac OS

broken image


  • During the installation of High Sierra, after a restart my iMac now gives a SOS signal at startup. 9 Beeps (3 short, 3 longer, 3 short) I tried the reset of NVRAM and PRAM and other relative keyboard combinations at startup without result.
  • 1 tone repeating every 5 seconds: When you start your Mac, it will automatically run system diagnostics. If you hear this pattern of beeping, it means that the Mac could not find any RAM installed. Either your computer's memory was removed or something is interfering with the system checkup.

This car has No Brakes!

Mac

Ran a thorough Apple Hardware Test off the internet through ethernet cable, took 1:45 hours and it showed no errors Tried to run through Mountain Lion Recovery Disk, same white screen Entered sIngle user mode (Cmd+S) and ran fsck -fy on boot disk, it gave a few minor errors, so I repeated fsck -fy a few times until it no longer gave errors. Upon restart, both made the loud beep, followed by a progress bar. At the end of the progress bar, the computer restarted again and proceeded with a normal Mac OS startup (into 10.11 this time). So it is a normal part of the process. You do not need to intervene!

Help the car stop inside the goal - here's how:

Drag and drop CONES in the car's path to slow it down.


Drag and drop CONTROL ZONES in the car's path to make it turn.

Can you beat all 4 levels?!


TROUBLESHOOTING:

  • On Windows a box pops up that says: 'Windows protected your PC. Microsoft Defender SmartScreen prevented an unrecognized app from starting.'
    • Click where it says 'More Info'
    • Click the button that pops up and says 'Run anyway'

No Brakes (beep Yeah ) Mac Os 7

I have recently been playing with some very old Macs and emulators, which reminded me of how the Mac's startup sound evolved over the years before going quiet in 2016. Ken from the Computer Clan made a nice video that provides a history of the startup sound and demonstrates how the startup sound changed over time.

When Apple disabled the startup sound by default in 2016, someone discovered that a Terminal command could bring it back:

When Apple disabled the startup sound by default in 2016, someone discovered that a Terminal command could bring it back:

sudo nvram BootAudio=%01

Unfortunately, that approach stopped working with Mac models in 2017, presumably due to Apple removing the option in a macOS update, and since then, new Macs have started up silently. Now, however, Twitter user DylanMcD8 has discovered a new NVRAM parameter that brings back the startup sound, even on the latest Macs.

Winter maw (itch) mac os. TidBITS Talk members report it working on 2017 iMacs, 2018 Mac minis, a 2018 13-inch MacBook Pro, and a 2019 16-inch MacBook Pro. However, AppleInsider said that it didn't work on several machines—it's unclear why not.

I don't understand what modern-day Apple has against the startup sound. Sure, make it an option for those who need their Macs to be silent at all times, but it's a useful indication that the Mac is working as expected—at least to that point in the boot process. Perhaps Apple is trying to encourage the belief that Macs are always available like iPhone and iPads, but reality doesn't support that.

To reverse this setting, should you want to, change the command to:

sudo nvram StartupMute=%01

Thanks to Howard Oakley, whose post on his Eclectic Light Company blog was the first instance I saw of this, though it has subsequently spread widely.
