After Lion Upgrade - Autosave failed!

I was working on two Pages documents and closed them.

According to Pages help I should have been asked to save:

Closing a Document Without Quitting Pages

When you have finished working with a document, you can close it without quitting Pages.

Here are ways to close documents and keep the application open:

To close the active document, choose File > Close, or click the close button in the upper-left corner of the document window.

To close all open Pages documents, press the Option key and choose File > Close All, or click the active document’s close button.

If you’ve made changes since you last saved the document, Pages prompts you to save.

But I wasn't asked.

When opening the two files later I noticed that the last changes (one chapter) in one of them were missing.

How can this be...?

Here comes good news!

The latest update to Lion OS X version 10.7.2 resolved my AutoSave problem.

I made some tests as described previously in this thread and all seems to work well so far...

PLEASE can the others who had the same issues try this update to 10.7.2 and report if their problems are also fixed now?

Thanks a lot!!

Hello

Glad to read that and must apologize for thinking that it was a problem specific to your own machine.

I have exactly the same problem. Has happened for a long time, I just didn't get round to reporting it. It's a fairly scaring problem. Sometimes the lost data might not be important, but other times it really might.
