Did you save the document before closing? You would have gotten a dialog to do something. If not, not much you can do except start over.

25GB of not-visible files on bootdisk after backup-how to find and delete?
After backing up my iMac G5 internal HD to an external Firewire HD, the internal HD has accumulated an extra 25 Gigabytes of hidden/invisible files.
** How can I locate and delete presumably unnecessary hidden files?
iMac HD had 100GB used. I used Carbon Copy Cloner to clone iMacHD to iMac backup, which had been zeroed with Disk Utility. After several failed partial clones using CCC, I erased iMac Backup -without zeroing- MacOS Extended (not journaled), and successfully made a bootable clone, excluding only .Spotlight-V100
Did the failed clone attempts create hidden temporary files? Each time I tried, I would get more folders cloned, including the files at which it had hung, without error messages (mostly).
Visible folders total 95 GB -exactly the same on Imac HD and iMac backup
Using
sudo ls alh /.Spotlight-V100
.Spotlight-V100 totals 185 MB on IMac HD
Just before the above history, iMac HD had been zeroed, Tiger reinstalled, updates taken, and other data restored using Migration assistant, from iMac Backup, which had been the boot disk because iMacHD had twice, in the last 6 months, developed bad disk sectors ( invalid leaf count in Disk Utility, surface scan errors in Techtool Deluxe. iMac HD has just passed both those tests, for now.)
If this happens again, Applecare promised me I get a new HD.
(Applecare Australia works the same hours I do M-F, so I get to talk to them only on Saturdays)

When I connect my iPod nano 7th gen. to my computer and open itunes, there is a message that says the iPod could not be detected. Does anybody know how to fix this issue?
1. Update iTunes to the latest version. Plug in your iPod. If iTunes still can't recognize it, then in iTunes in the top left corner click help> run diagnostics. On the box that comes up, check the last two things. Click next and it should identify your iPod.
2. Click on your windows start menu. Type in "services". Click on it and when it pops up, on the bottom of it click on "standard". Now Scroll down to find "Apple Mobile Device" Right click it when you see it and click on "Start". When it has started, close iTunes and replug in your iPod and it should show up.
3. Check the USB cable
4. Verify that Apple Mobile Device Support is installed
5. Restart the Apple Mobile Device Service and verify that the Apple Mobile Device USB Driver is installed.
6. If you just want to add some photos, songs and movies from computer to your devices, you can use an iTunes alternative to do the job.
7. Check for third-party software conflicts. -

I use a two button mouse with my Mac Book Pro. It works fine, but after installing Lion, the mouse wheel goes in reverse of what it did (rolling the wheel towards your palm goes up not down the page). Anyone know how to fix this?
First sentence in OPs question:

I guess the track pad settings would look similar to my screen shot?

Looks like you have to upgrade to at least 7.8.2.16.

My new computer does not show share from my old computer how long does this take?
I'm having the same problem. I have my main Library on a WXP machine and a new W7 laptop. My iphone 4 sees the library from the W7 machine, but neither the laptop nor the iphone see the big library on the WXP machine. I have configured firewall settings, tried the network wired and wireless, using same apple id on all devices, restarted itunes on all computers, turned sharing off and on on all computers. Nothing works.

Anyone having the letter n pop up in Address Book Notes? Anyone able to tell me how to keep this from happening?
You can upgrade to Mavericks free, just run the App Store program and search for Mavericks. But before you do upgrade I recommend the following:
1) make sure you have a recent backup. TimeMachine is fine.
2) Mavericks is somewhat more memory hungry than 10.7 was. You will need 4 GB of RAM and I strongly recommend 8 GB.
Go back to the Apple menu and select About this Mac - look under the OS info you just looked at. You'll see how much RAM your computer has now. Then click on the More Info button. There you will see your computer info listed as in: iMac, 21.5" mid 2010, for example. Return back with that information and we can tell you how far the computer can be upgraded.
If you decide to procede and you have enough RAM upgrading to Mavericks is quite simple. Click on the download button and let it do its job. -
My primary keyboard is English UK and secondary one Spanish. Until now when switching keyboards languages the spell check would automatically change to the desired language. Somehow it does not happen anymore. Any ideas on how to fix this?
The keyboard doesn't normally play any role in Apple apps regarding spellcheck. That is determined by system prefs/keyboard/text/spelling. Go the setup item at the bottom of the list and make sure that British English and Spanish are the only two boxes checked, and then set it to Automatic. How well it works varies a lot. You may also need to check Edit > Spelling and Grammar > Show Spelling and Grammar.
If you are still using Pages 4, spellcheck is determined by Inspector > Text > More > Language. Make sure that is set to the right thing for what you want to do. -

Clean iPhone charging port with clean dry toothbrush. See if fixed. If not, and if there is Warranty or AppleCare make Genius reservation or set up service and take or send to Apple. If no coverage, clean again with toothbrush and small amount of Isopropyl Alcohol.
