Why can't add sounds to mail to Sierra

After the upgrade to Sierra, I would add is no longer a 'personal' sound of my files to act as my 'new message '. The sound folder is locked and I have, even as an administrator, can't unlock it or add sounds in the folder.  All I have now is a drop-down list of predetermined choice of Apple, and none of these things include the addition of new sounds.  Preference once gave me the choice to go to my files, I have more choice. Can someone tell me how to add my own sounds?

MACBOOK PRO15.

Intel core i7 to 2.7 GHz

8 GB memory

as it is in this matter and, of course MAC OS Sierra 10.12.

Greetings gklav,

Thank you for using communities of Apple Support. It seems that you want to use a custom sound in Mail when a new message arrives. I recommend reading this article, it explains how the feature works and what is available.

New sound of messages

The sound to play when you receive messages. To make a sound sampling, click on the context menu, and then select a sound.

Take care.

  • Why can't add photos from iphoto for my film? Only works with Photo Booth.

    I can't add a picture of my iPhoto for my movie library, although it clearly said in the Help menu that I can. It will highlight only photobooth to choose.

    Looks like you're looking in the import window that is in the wrong place. In the main iMovie edit screen on the left in the library list, you should see listed iPhoto library. SELECT and in the upper part of the window is a pop-up window where you can choose to display the faces of events, Albums, etc. I assume you are using iMovie 10.x.x.

  • Why can my customer receive e-mails from my iPad but not my IMac?

    Hello, I have an iMac OS X Yosemite, Version 10.10.5, 3.5 GHz Intel Core i5, 16 GB 1600 MHz DDR3 and an iPad. Last year, I worked with a client, have no difficulty emailing back. I use Yahoo Mail. Recently, my customer migrated from Lotus notes to Outlook (version 2010) and cannot receive my email from my iMac. Only they can, however, make from my iPad. It's the explanation of their IT Department. "I have recently gone from Lotus to Outlook. When I was on Lotus our security does not come into conflict. When I migrated to Outlook the Outlook security is that collide with your security is why I do not receive emails sent through your computer. Safety on the iPad is different and is compatible with my computer which is why emails sent from your iPad come to me. "We tried to check SPAM, junk mail, basic troubleshooting. I'm not big on technique and I need to be able to send this email to the person of my computer. Help, please!

    Is the address of the customer e-mail different since he switched to Outlook? If so, have you changed his e-mail address in your Contacts? My guess is when you type an email to that customer and you start to overlay in his name in the of: domain, Mail automatically fills to its OLD yahoo.com email address.

    If you have two email addresses on your iMac for this customer - one for his old account from yahoo.com and one to his new Outlook account, delete the OLD e-mail address to your Contacts.

  • Why can I not use Yahoo mail? It will not delete emails. Google chrome does right. Fix it or you will lose our business

    Yesterday, August 22, Mozilla has undergone a massive rupture and complete in the treatment of Yahoo. Initially I thought it was a virus. I immediately passed to Google Chrome & worked on it without difficulty throughout the day. Yahoo was to push all the data/items on the left side of the screen. Who set to date, August 23. HOWEVER, with Yahoo mail problem. Out of the blue, it is impossible to delete emails Yahoo on Mozilla. If you single click to select a list of deleted emails, they automatically opens. There is no "delete" at the top of the screen to get rid of. It is very annoying. Someone is playing with your system (alone). Google Chrome & Microsoft Explorer works great all day. FIX IT!
