===Behavior During Prayer===
#Some have the minhag to stand bent slightly (hunched over slightly) during the Tefillot of [[Rosh HaShana]] and if one does so, one should make sure to stand straight for the end and beginning of each Bracha. <ref>Shulchan Aruch 582:4 writes that those who have the minhag to stand bent over for Tefillot on Rosh Hashanah should stand straight at the end of the Bracha. Mishna Brurah 582:14 writes that starting from Baruch Atta Hashem through the beginning of the next Bracha one should stand erect so that it doesn’t appear like one is adding the established bows of Chazal. </ref> Some say it’s preferable to stand straight for the Tefillot. <ref>Kitzur Shulchan Aruch 129:2 </ref>
#Some have the minhag to daven slightly out loud during Tefillot of Rosh Hashana.<ref>Shulchan Aruch Orach Chaim 582:9 writes that one may daven out loud during Tefillot of Rosh Hashana and not worry about bothering others [[Davening]] since everyone has a machzor. Mishna Brurah 582:24 writes not to raise one’s voice too much. Rav Mordechai Lebhar (Magen Avot, Orach Chaim 582:9) writes how in some [[Moroccan]] communities, one person recites the entire silent [[Shemoneh Esrei]] out loud, and everyone else follows along silently.</ref> However, many authorities discourage this practice. <ref>Kitzur Shulchan Aruch 129:2, Chaye Adam 139:2, Kaf HaChaim 582:17, and Rav Mordechai Eliyahu’s footnote on Kitzur Shulchan Aruch 129:2. Kaf HaChaim 582:17 adds that if one doesn’t have kavana another way one may raise one’s voice slightly.</ref>
#Some poskim encourage crying during the [[prayers]] of Rosh Hashana while some forbid it. <ref>Rav Moshe Shternbuch in Teshuvot Vihanhagot 2:268 quotes the Vilna Gaon in his Sefer Maaseh Rav 207 that it is forbidden to cry, but also quotes the Arizal (brought down in Baer Heitev 584) that any person with a good soul would cry on Rosh Hashana. He claims that they aren't disagreeing, but rather that the Vilna Gaon is talking about crying from fear of the day of judgement and viewing the day as one of sadness and gloom. But if the tears come spontaneously from a longing for Hashem during the [[prayers]], that it praiseworthy. </ref>
===HaMelech HaKadosh===
#If one forgot to switch from Atta Kadosh to HaMelech HaKadosh the first night of Rosh Hashana one doesn't have to repeat [[Shmoneh Esrei]] as long as one said the [[Yom Tov]] [[Shmoneh Esrei]], however, if one said the weekday [[Shmoneh Esrei]] or on the day of Rosh Hashana or the second night of Rosh Hashana one should repeat [[Shmoneh Esrei]]. <ref>Chaye Adam 24:10, Sh"t Igrot Moshe 1:170, [http://www.yutorah.org/lectures/lecture.cfm/764351/Rabbi_Hershel_Schachter/Inyanei_Rosh_Hashanah Rabbi Hershel Schachter in a shuir] (min 43-45:30) </ref> Some disagree and hold that one needs to repeat Shemona Esrei.<ref>Mishna Brurah (Shaar Hatziyun 582:4). Rav Chaim Pinchas Sheinberg in Moriah Elul 5759 22:10-12 p. 100 writes that one doesn't fulfill one's obligation since the theme of Malchut is a main theme of Shemona Esrei.</ref>
===Yaaleh Veyavo===
#If one forgot [[Yaaleh VeYavo]] in [[Benching]] on Rosh Hashana during the day one does not have to repeat [[benching]], but during the nighttime one must repeat [[benching]]. <ref>Mishna Brurah 188:19 quotes the Magen Avraham 188:7 who says one doesn't repeat [[Birkat HaMazon]] and the Eliyah Rabba who argues and the Mishna Brurah leaves it unresolved. Shemirat Shabbat Kehilchata 57:7(4) quotes both opinions and in note 25 he concludes that one doesn't have to repeat [[benching]] because it's a [[Safek Brachot LeHakel]]. Similarly, [http://www.yutorah.org/lectures/lecture.cfm/764351/Rabbi_Hershel_Schachter/Inyanei_Rosh_Hashanah Rabbi Hershel Schachter in a shuir] (min 41-43) mentions that some achronim hold that one doesn't have to repeat [[benching]] because there is an opinion that one is allowed to fast on Rosh Hashana. When asked whether this would be considered Safek Deoritta Lechumra he explained that even if one forgot [[Yaaleh VeYavo]] one fulfills the Deoritta obligation of [[benching]] it just that one didn't fulfill the din derabbanan to have a meal for [[Yom Tov]]. </ref>
===Brit Milah===
#If there's a Brit Milah in Shul on Rosh Hashana, the Milah should be preformed between Kriyat HaTorah and the blowing of the Shofar.<ref>Shulchan Aruch 584:4</ref>
