Bret,

Thank you again for this assurance. It makes sense that when I imported media into the event ‘Potato Boots’ and started pulling things into the timeline, that a new project would have been automatically created.

When that happens, does a save dialouge box appear asking where to save the new project to? Perhaps I saved the project itself to a diffrrent location on my computer? Are there any hints in the timeline “disappearing” when I closed the library it lives in?

I agree this work cannot be lost and its surely my error that I’m not seeing it.

Bret,

Thanks again for your continued assistance. I can click on the only other event in the library and see the timeline for that respective event (not the one I lost). The timeline that I worked on is nowhere to be found in there.

When I try to restore from backup, I am given multiple versions of the ‘March 2015’ library with ‘Potato Boots’ listed as one of the events. However, the media is in the event and the project timeline is totally blank, just as it is presently.

Have you ever experience something like this before?

Mr. Williams,

Thank you for your reply. That is a relief to hear, but man, it really looks like all my work in the timeline is gone without a trace! I find it ridiculously peculiar myself and I’m confident we should be able to get to the bottom of this.

Let’s start with what I’ve tried. I have double clicked on the project within the event. It is blank. I’ll show you a screen shot:

I’m trying to recover the work I did in the event called ‘Potato Boots’

Again, my concern is I created the Library ‘March 2015’, I created an Event within that Library called ‘Potato Boots’, I created a project within that event, but I think I did all of my editing outside of that project’s timeline. That’s why when I closed the Library, the timeline disappeared and all the work was lost. And thats why when I click on that event’s project now, the timeline is totally empty.

Again I hope that’s not the case and that what I’m describing is impossible.

I’m eagerly awaiting some additional guidance. Thank you for your help so far.

Cheers.
