Nope. Didn’t work. Is this sound supposed to happen after the power button is

I put it into the dock, as I use the terminal frequently.
Interestingly, my Mac is old enough (late 2013 MacBook Pro) to have the chime.
Running nvram -p indicates that it doesn't have the variable, so perhaps that
exists only in the firmware of newer machines.

Yes, it works o my 2019 MacBook Pro; however, the volume is very low. I’ll

Well I just press option command up or down arrow and it worked. I’m sure I
used to press a different combo before I upgraded to Catalina.
But can’t remember what that was.

Awesome. I saw an article on this earlier today on Apple Insider, but haven’t
had time to try it on my 2019 MacBook Pro 13.
Glad to know that Tim was successful in restoring the chime on one of his Macs.
I’ve gotten use to living without the chime, but would love to get it back.

Hi,
This seems like it should be obvious so maybe I’m missing something. When
using the Mail app on the Mac, how do you jump to the start or end of the
