How to recover unsaved project in GarageBand

Hi,


I've seen a lot of responses on how to recover garage band project but when GB crashes...


What I've actually done is that I have clicked don't save by mistake and may 4 hour rehearsal recording is lost.

Is there any way to get it back ? I've check GB directory in media folder but nothing is there.

Nothing in trash..


Please help !

I'm afraid, you are out of luck.

If you tell GarageBand specifically not to save something, then it does exactly that, not saving it.

The only way to get your Project back is if you had TimeMachine running,which backs up new files every hour. This way you could roll back and restore the auto-saved Project from a TimeMachine backup and lose only 1 hour maximum instead of the entire 4h Project.


Hope that helps
