Textedit file missing, How to recover? I have been working on my scenario for a week on textedit, and this morning while I was making correction my file disappeared, while the other textedit files that were open remained on-screen.

I can't find the file anymore. I have tried the library autosave and there was nothing. When I looked in /private/var/folders there are files that correspond to the time this error happened, but they are forbidden from access.

How can I get my textedit file back?
If it's not in Open Recent under the File menu, it's gone.
