Having trouble retrieving a word document,

 

I cant find my assignment anywhere on my Mac, and when i look at where i saved it, its like it has reverted back to when i first saved it, without all my work that i have completed.

 

Is there anyway that i can retrieve my work?

    Hey merodi,

     

    I dont fully understand your problem here,

    1. Did your computer shut down or 'die' or did you save and then you cant find it?

    2. Have you tried looking in spotlight (little magnifying glass up the corner)

    3. Have you tried opening the program again? In word and pages, if the program exited forcefully, opening it again will restore the document.
