Hi ,
Anyone knows how to change Mail alert tones? The default one is short and not able to notice the mails when its locked .

[jakecigar]

the RIGHT way would be to use customize... but that doesn't work on 2.0.1!

If you have the tone in .caf format you can just replace /System/Library/Audio/UISounds/new-mail.caf
with your new tone.

make sure to save off the old /System/Library/Audio/UISounds/new-mail.caf file.

then respring or reboot.

Hi, I was wondering if the tone had to be in a specific sound format? mp3or aac or another??

I know the extension has to be .caf, but the file format??

caf is aiff. (so it's ANOTHER!!)

I changed the mail sound to the "glass" sound in OS X...I just renamed it from Glass.aiff to new-mail.caf and dropped it in the UISounds folder.
