Mmmm.., thanks! I have loved being able to adjust the volume on iTunes on the fly, but that pesky beep sound was really starting to annoy me. This tip is saving me from a certain migraine.
Thanks again,

Since 10.1.5, the keyboard volume control doesn't necessarily beep on every one, but on every few increments, seemingly depending on the speed you click. Clicking slowly, you can get a beep at every increment, increase the click speed, and you can decrease how often it beeps. Weird!
Wow! That worked great at muting the keyboard volume key beeps.. now however I can't get them back. I option-clicked on the volume control and the Alert volume is set to max. I've played around with various key combinations. I've become weary and beepless..
Has anybody else have their Alerts take a permanent vacation? Am I missing something simple? Please help.

BTW - I'm on 10.1.4
I would much rather that the default be to NOT beep, and for it to only beep when I hold the shift key. This because most of the time I don't need this beep feedback, but there are occasions when it can be useful. Somebody has got to find a hack to do this. :)
It works in OS 9.2.2 as well.
I don't know how we've missed it for so long.
Thank god it was found.
There was a comment posted in December about a resexcelence article that showed how to permanently disable the beep. Rabbit-headed car person on ghost island mac os. It worked up through 10.1.4, but I haven't tried it yet in 10.1.5. The article is still available at http://www.resexcellence.com/hack_html_01/12-17-01.shtml if you want to check it out.

For some reason, this old hint just found it's way into Rob's Help Desk section of the Feb 2006 MacWorld.
I think this is really outdated, unless you REALLY want to have the beep sometimes and not on others. The Sound pref pane in 10.4 (and prob. 10.3) has a checkbox (on the Sound Effects tab) called 'Play feedback when volume is changed'. That's the easiest way to disable these beeps!
In OSX 10.8 Go to--(System Preferences)--(Sound)--click the Sound Effects Tab--Uncheck the (Play feedback when volume is changed) box.
Pretty freaking simple actually.
