Version 1.3
THIS IS AN OLD VERSION OF MY COLLECTION,
PLEASE GO HERE FOR THE LATEST VERSION.
Information:
I had always wanted a collection of the Apple Start-Up Sounds. I have neverseen one on the Net, so I gave up and digitized my own. Some of the sounds Idid not digitize, so I give thanks to the other Macintosh users on the Net. Ido not know the naming convention Apple uses for the different sounds, so Ihope the names I have used are acceptable. All recent Macintosh computershave stored the Start-Up sounds, and some the Crash sounds, in the ROMs. Thismeans I could use programs to extract the sounds directly from the ROMs,saving as much quality as possible. I am currently not distinguishing betweenthe *slightly* different Quadra style Crashes.
Some Apple computers may have sounds which are not in this collection. Ifthis is the case, I would appreciate being contacted about them. If someonecan send me any missing sounds by E-Mail, I would appreciate it.
The Start-Ups are the normal sounds that occur when any Apple computer isturned on. The Crashes (also known as the 'Hawaiian Death Chimes') areproduced by hitting the Programmer's Key (either by hitting the 'Reset' buttonon the computer, or by hitting the 'Command-Reset' keys on the keyboard)during the first stages of boot up. It also occurs during boot up when somelow-level errors occur.

While we’re all familiar with the sound Macs make as they power on, there have been some unusual ones in the past. My favorite is probably the Power Mac 6100 death chime, which sounds like a car crash.[1. Which is probably the last thing anyone wanted to hear as their Mac crashed.]
You can download the complete collection of 19 unusual Mac tones here.
Update: From 512 Pixels reader Bryan S:
If you change all of those tones’ extensions to .m4r instead of .m4a you can add them into iTunes and sync them over to an iPhone.
Editor’s Note: These were found living in the application package of Mactracker, which is an app no Apple nerd should live without.
