This is the type of computer I am using.
MacBook Pro (13-inch, Mid 2012)
Processor 2.5 GHz Intel Core i5
Memory 4 GB 1600 MHz DDR3
Graphics Intel HD Graphics 4000 1024 MB
Earlier today, I was trying to save a pdf and carelessly pressed ok on a pop-up that said the PDF was unable to save. After doing this several times, I went to check my documents in the finder, and almost everything was gone. All the folders I had organized, gone. All the documents that I had made, gone. I tried to search for them, but only could find documents that I had downloaded. I opened up microsoft word and tried to access the file through there, but it said the file could not be found and that I could try to manually find it. I tried to do that, but it just took me back to the finder. Is there anything I can do to restore these files? I would prefer not to have to purchase $100 recovery software. Thanks for your time and feedback.
