Can't find the current version of my Microsoft Word document

I have spent the past two months or so working on a Microsoft word document. About two weeks ago, I emailed a version of this document to a friend. At that time, the document was about 170,000 words long. Since then, I have made several changes to the document,
including deleting several scenes and adding in new ones. As of yesterday, the document was about 200,000 words long.
This morning, I opened the document again, and it was down to 170,000 words. As near as I can tell, this is the same version of the document that I had emailed to my friend (as it includes the scenes that have since been deleted). I don't have the slightest
idea how this happened.
Yesterday evening I renamed the document by going through Finder, clicking "Get Info", and deleting the old title, then typing in the new one. That is the only unusual thing that I've done with the document recently, but I can't imagine that that
had anything to do with why my document has suddenly been replaced with an older version of itself.
Is there anything that I can possible do to regain my current version? Please, I have been working on this document nonstop for the past weeks and I am seriously DESPERATE to get my words back.
Thank you.

Yes, I am working on a Macbook Air. (Sorry that I forgot to say.)
I did look with Finder, and wasn't able to find it there. However, when I clicked "Open Recent" in Microsoft Word, the document showed up, complete with its original title and all of my missing words. I still don't have the slightest idea what happened,
but the problem has been resolved, at least.
To both of you, thank you so much for replying and helping me out!!!

  • Where can I find the latest version number in a document in the web? so I can download it with wget to check if the current installed firefox version is up to date and update ir if necessary?

    My problem is that I can't find the latest version number in here http://releases.mozilla.org/pub/mozilla.org/firefox/releases/latest/win32 as a document, so I can check against "HKLM\SOFTWARE\Mozilla\Mozilla Firefox\CurrentVersion" and update or not, all this is done by a script. It will be great not have to change the versión number in the script every time there is a new release.
    Thanks

    I think I solved, all I have to do is this:
    //here I download the entire page
    wget.exe http://www.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/all.html -O index
    //here I search for the word curVersion and set a variable with the result, which is "10.0.2"
    for /f "tokens=3 delims=</> " %%A IN ('type index ^| FIND /I "curVersion" ' ) do set latestversion=%%A
    //here I just make sure I get a number
    echo "%latestversion%"
    pause
    Later I check it against the registry and voila! I hope this can help other admins who have the same problem.
    Regards.

  • Where Can I Find the Current SW Version?

    Hi there.
    There was a place on Nokia's website where I can check what the current version release is for a Nokia N95. That particular page asks me to enter the 7 digit product code. I swear, if I'm not looking for it, I see it. When I am, I can't.
    Can someone send me the link for this web page?
    Your help is appreciated!

  • Can I find the current tab in Terminal using applescript?

    Running a script from the shell by prepending
    #! /usr/bin/osascript
    as part of my .profile, can I find the "current" tab using Applescript. Most of the time, the "current" tab will not be visible, as the shell is being initialised, or re-initialised.
    I want to set the dircolors for my shell by determining the background color of the tab in which the shell is executing.

    Under the Window menu you can activate any of the palettes that you want. In your case the Field tab is under the Object palette

  • I just wrote over a pages document by mistake and then saved it, can I find the older version somewhere?

    I just wrote over a pages document and saved it by mistake, can I find the older version of the document?

    What exactly do you mean when you say "You Wrote Over a Pages Document"?
    Did you highlight the text in the document and then start typing?
    Did you use some type of Insert function to erase the text already in the document as you type the new text?
    If you dodn't do either of those things more then likely all the text that was original in that document is still there, just on another page.
    If you did do one of the above it is gone, Bye Bye, See you later.

  • Where can I find the current time and date of Time Capsule?

    I have a home network consisint of 2 x Time Capsules and 1 x Airport Express.  All is working fine.  I would like to set up access control for one machine connecting to the network and I can see I can do this under Access Control on the Airport Utility.  My question is where can I find the current time and date setting for these devices? 
    I can set them to use the time.apple.com server to set the time automatically, but I can't find where to see the current time and date of the device.  The only place I can see reference to the time and date is on the logs and statistics under the Advanced tab of the AirPort Untility.

    I don't think you can change the time and date on the TC itself, it just connects to a time server (and you set your own time zone).

  • HT5037 when I click on iPhoto(9.5.1)  i get "To open your library with this version of iPhoto, it first needs to be prepared." but i downloaded the up-grader, used it and it tells me the library can open with the current version... what should i do now?

    When I click on iPhoto(9.5.1)  i get "To open your library with this version of iPhoto, it first needs to be prepared." but i downloaded the up-grader, used it and it tells me the library can open with the current version... Then when I click on the iphoto again i get the same message "To open your library with this version of iPhoto, it first needs to be prepared."'
    What should I do?

    The upgraded is only necessary for libraries created with iPhoto '07 or eearlier.  Just double click the library to open it in iPhoto, and let it upgrade, if it has been created by a newr version.

  • I find the current version of Firefox extremely difficult to use. Can I use a lower level version of Firefox??

    I find it extremely difficult using the current version of Firefox. Navigating through open pages is cumbersome and at times, closing tabs is not possible. I have to close Firefox and restart. I would like to download an older version of Firefox. Is this possible?? If not, I will go elsewhere.
    Regards,
    Jerry

    How are you trying to close tabs when that happens?
    Does it work if you middle click a tab?
    Start Firefox in <u>[[Safe Mode]]</u> to check if one of the extensions is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox (Tools) > Add-ons > Appearance/Themes).
    * Don't make any changes on the Safe mode start window.
    * https://support.mozilla.com/kb/Safe+Mode
    * https://support.mozilla.com/kb/Troubleshooting+extensions+and+themes
    If you want to restore the old appearance then you can right click the orange Firefox button to open the toolbar context menu or use (F10) View > Toolbars.
    * Click the Menu Bar entry and place a check-mark to make the Menu Bar visible all the time.
    * Click "Tabs on Top" to remove the check mark and place the Tab Bar at its original position just above the browser window.
    * https://support.mozilla.com/kb/why-are-tabs-top
    You can use this extension to get the Status Bar back:

    The arrow to open the tab history of the Back and Forward buttons has been removed in Firefox 4.
    Use one of these methods to open the tab history list:
    * Right click on the Back or Forward button
    * Hold down the left mouse button on the enabled Back or Forward button until the list opens

  • Can't install the current version of iTunes

    I have itunes 8 installed. I successfully downloaded the current version of iTunes (I downloaded it using Firefox and IE - not sure what version, but it's a later version) and attempted to install it, I got this error message:
    *An error occurred during the installation of assembly 'Microsoft.VC80.CRT, version="8.0.50727.4053", type="win.32", publickeytoken="1fc8b3b9a1e18e3b", processor Architecture="X86"'. Please refer to Help and Support for more information. HRESULT:0x8007054F.*
    Whatever it had installed up to that point, it proceeded to uninstall. And, now, I cannot even use the iTunes that was already installed as it says: *"iTunes cannot run because some of its required files are missing. Please reinstall iTunes."*
    Can anyone help me? I have been having problems with my computer. I'm using Vista and have been having crashing problems and Windows updates have not been able to install. I know I need to contact Microsoft, or Dell, again (yes, they have not been able to help me) - could that be why I'm having problems installing iTunes? Any help would be appreciated. Thank you!!!

    +I backed everything up before installing the new Windows operating system.+
    That's good news. How did you back it up? Did you save the entire itunes folder? Or just the itunes music subfolder?
    What you need is your library file from the old system.
    iTunes Library.ITL
    This iLounge article explains why you need that ITL file.
    http://www.ilounge.com/index.php/articles/comments/moving-your-itunes-library-to -a-new-hard-drive/
    About the authorization, you have just lost one authorization, since that Vista system is gone.
    Once you reach 5 auths, you can do a deauthorize all. My work PC got upgraded while I was on vacation one year and I lost an auth that way. Since I am only up to 4 machines, I don't worry about it.

    You might want to spend $2 and get a 3rd-party ipod manager program that is much easier to use than iTunes for getting everything back from your ipod.

  • Front Row can't find the latest version of my iMovie project

    I need some help figuring out just where my iMovie project really is.
    I have been creating a project in order to learn how to manage all of the features of iMovie '09. I have revised many times and if I follow the path MacHD>Movies>iMovie Projects>first project and click to open, I see the most recent version.
    I have also shared using Media Browser and created an iDVD. Then I created a disc image of that and burned it using disc utility - just to see how all of that works. When I use DVD player to play it, I see the most recent version of my 'movie'.
    Next I tried to watch it using Front Row. When I open Front Row, then click through Movies to Movies Folder to iMovie Projects the computer tells me that there is no content. What I do have beneath the word Movies is the word Large. If I click on that, I get a much older version of the iMovie project that I thought had been discarded days ago.
    This is not a big deal. But I would like to know why Front Row can't find the most recent version of the project. I also would like to know why the old version is still there and reassurance that my latest version really has been saved and that it is 'safe'.

    I think that the movies that you see in Front Row are the ones that you shared to iTunes. However, if you click on the movies folder, you should see movies in your Media Browser. These are stored inside your RCProject file in the Movies/imovie Projects/<Project Name> container. If you right-click/Show Package Contents, you should see a Movies folder that has your movie.
    Also, there is a quirk in the Media Browser. If you have shared a movie to the Media Browser, and later change the movie, the Media Browser copy is deleted right then. You will see a warning message that says "This movie has already been shared. If you change it you will need to republish" (I am paraphrasing). So you have to re-share the movie for it to be in the Media Browser. However, copies you have shared to iTunes are not affected until you re-share.
