Opening and locating a Logic File

I saved this project in Logic Pro and now it will not open. It is showing in the app and will not open when I click on it, but the others will. It does not show saved in the location where it was or anywhere on the Mac. how can I get the project to open and locate it on the Mac as it does not show in none of the folders. Any suggestions?

iMac 27″ 5K, macOS 13.7

Have you restarted your Mac lately?

Rebooting is the best first step in troubleshooting and is often overlooked.


If a simple reboot of your Mac doesn’t fix things, see if the problem still happens in safe mode.  Safe mode will often correct weird software behavior by forcing the OS to clear caches, do disk repair and other self-maintenance and housekeeping and temporarily disables third-party mods.


How to use safe mode on your Mac - Apple Support 

TIP - you may need to use a wired USB keyboard for this. If you have the Magic Keyboard, plug that into the Mac with its charging cable.


Launch Logic Pro while in safe mode and see if you can locate and open the project.

You can exit safe mode by restarting your Mac normally, then reevaluate the problem.

I recommend downloading search/index apps that look everywhere(!) on your hard drive such as

easy find https://www.devontechnologies.com/apps/freeware#easyfind (pretty slow)

or

NeoFinder https://www.cdfinder.de/ (way faster if you uncheck preview/thumbnails files in the app settings. This app is my favourite because it's pretty fast and it can handle external volumes that are not connected to you computer anymore)
