In the very technical mind of.. well.. me, one word comes to mind. FROOOZZEEENN. This does happen from time to time, if it hasn't fixed it self in hours, then you're basically done. Restart and re-type.

What program were you using?

 

[KLTjonez]

its "word"

 

[calebjohnston]

i know that, on windows, word sometimes auto-saves files. maybe it's the same situation for macs? I'm still new to the whole OS.

 

[EHUnlucky7x9@ao]

Yeah, word on Macs saves from time to time. I don't know exactly how long in between... but Word froze on me when I was typing up my paper... i force quit... reopened Word and most of the stuff I wrote down was there... Word opened up saying there was a file in memory and would I like to open it...and i said yes... and blam...there it was...most of it minus a paragraph.

 

[calebjohnston]

[KLTjonez]
