Apple Mail Signatures continue to be deleted...

I have re-entered by email signatures in Apple Mail on multiple occasions and they continued to be deleted when I close the app and then re-open it at a later time. Can you please let me know how I can prevent the signature from being deleted when the app is closed?


Thank you

Add on, my Text Based Signatures in Apple Mail on 3 different Apple Computers, 2 with Ventura and 1 High Sierra all work fine after closing the Mail Application.

I tried everything on this thread, and nothing worked for me. Here's what did:


  1. Open Mail
  2. Verify your signature is missing
  3. Hit ⇧⌘G (or Go > Go to Folder... in the Finder) and enter ~/Library/Mail/V10/MailData/Signatures/
  4. Move AllSignatures.plist to the trash
  5. Return to Mail, create signature, and assign to appropriate account
  6. Quit mail, reopen (which creates a new AllSignatures.plist file), and test to ensure the signature is working


I did this one time, my signatures returned, and I haven't had problems with them disappearing since.


I hope this helps you!
