    Since migrating to OSX Sequoia I noticed things vanishing, one of them was the WAVES instruction to remove and install from the sister site, I then noticed many deep singing images not shown up in notes where I saved them about installing, deep singing etc, forums like this and others who advised work arounds issues with Mac interfaces.

    Has anyone else experienced this type of intrusive behaviour by Waves or other manufactures removing information on how to install, deal with deep singing etc? is this some type of malware, I had a waves folder with at least 45 noted about every plug they have, even videos and all of this vanished along with other sister site with advise here I copied notes to install on both Mac and windows platforms., months later all vanished from my apple notes!

    It seems that you have experienced several issues with disappeared data after updating to macOS Sequoia (also known as macOS 15). Here is a summary of the situation and possible explanations:

    Disappeared Notes and Images

    - After updating to macOS Sequoia, notes and images, especially related to WAVES plugins and Deep Singing, have disappeared from your Apple Notes app.

    - This could be due to syncing issues with iCloud. Sometimes iCloud syncing can cause content to temporarily not appear.
    - It is unlikely to be malware or intentional removal of information by manufacturers. Such practices would be highly unethical and illegal.

    Potential Causes and Solutions

    - iCloud syncing: Temporarily disable iCloud syncing for Notes and then enable it again. This could help recover disappeared content.

    - Recently deleted notes: Check the Recently Deleted folder in the Notes app. Your notes may have been accidentally deleted and can be recovered.

    - Finder preferences: Change Finder preferences to reveal potentially hidden files.
    - Time Machine backup: If available, restore your notes from a Time Machine backup.

    General macOS Sequoia issues

    - There have been some reported issues with macOS Sequoia, particularly related to keyword searches and locating files. This could explain why you're having trouble finding certain content.

    Recommendations

    - Contact Apple Support for specific help recovering your notes.
    - Make regular backups of your important data to avoid future data loss.
    - Check your Notes app settings and iCloud sync to make sure everything is configured correctly.
    - Keep an eye on official macOS Sequoia update information and bug fixes, as future updates may address these issues.

    It is important to emphasize that the disappearance of your notes is most likely due to technical issues related to the operating system update and not deliberate removal by software manufacturers.

    Tried to search for "deep singing image" just to see if it was something software related that I've never heard of, but I only get links to AI image generators and stock photo sites.

    EDIT: found a deep-learning vocal synthesis tool from Microsoft called DeepSinger, but it looks like it's mostly a research project and not an actual service that anyone can use

    as radio the AI stated above, its likely a cloud issue. there is no way waves or any other company is deleting your stuff.

    nice. another conspiracy theory to content farm and waste some text.


    The --deep option for code signing on macOS can cause issues when signing complex products, says Apple.
    Explanation
    • The --deep option applies the same code-signing options to every code item it signs.
    • For example, if an app has an embedded command-line tool that needs different entitlements, codesign --deep applies the same entitlements to both.
    • codesign --deep only signs nested code if it's in specific locations in the top-level bundle.
    • codesign --deep doesn't sign code if it's put in a place where codesign expects to find data.
    Code signing on macOS
    • Code signing is a macOS security technology that verifies that an app was created by you.
    • You can obtain code signing certificates for macOS apps by purchasing a membership to the Apple Developer Program.
    • Code signing has three core operations: sign code, display a code signature, and verify a code signature.
