working on a final draft and the program stopped responding, it's been about an hour, will it ever start responding again? Do I have to quit the program and lose everything or is there a way of saving this?
Some programs, such as iWork and Office for Mac, will autosave periodically in case the application stops responding. However if it has been unresponsive for a extended length of time it is unlikely it will start responding again. You will likely have to force it to quit and then re-open it.
I doubt after an hour the program will respond, if the information you need is on the screen you may be able to screenshot some of it. Otherwise you'll have to force quit and hope it autosaved.
Goodluck

Will a program that is not responding ever respond without quitting the program and losing information?
