Trying to use Automator
#1
I have an .aif file of the Mac startup chime & I want QuickTime to play this file as soon as the Dell mini 9 finishes booting.

For the 1st time ever, I launched Automator to try & do this. What I ended up with is:
1. Get specified Finder Item (the chime file)
2. Open Finder Items (Open with QuickTime Player)
3. Quit Application: QuickTime Player.

The sound file shows up when I view Results after the action runs, but the only sound I hear is a beep. I saved it as an application & when it runs, QuickTime Palyer launches & then closes but there's no sound.

What am I missing here?
