Anita, You may find the information on this wiki page useful in locating where your data is stored. I am also not a MacOS user but some of the information at https://wiki.gnucash.org/wiki/Configuration_Locations may help The section on USER_DATA_HOME will give you some locations where your GnuCash data files are stored under MacOS. You should find a directory named "gnucash" in one of those locations. It should contain files which have the following formats <filename>.gnucash the original data file <filename>.<timestamp>.gnucash a backup file <filename>.<timestamp>.log a log file
where <filename> is substituted with the name you gave your data file when it was created. <timestamp> gives the date-time at which the backup or log file is created. It will look something like 20181021235717 The first 8 digits are the date in yyymmdd format and the last 6 will be the time in hhmmss format. You may also find files <filename>.gnucash.LCK <filename>.gnucash.nnnnnnn.nnnnn.LNK These are lock files. If ithey exist it will be because GnuCash exited abnormally and they were not deleted on exit. They will cause a warning to come up when you try to reopen the files with GnuCash. It they exist use a terminal application to delete them. Restart GnuCash (not by clicking on the data file as explained in a previous post) and then use the menu File Open command to open the <filename>.gnucash file from whichever directory/folder it is located in. If this does not work and you have a copy of your data file copy it to your computer in a new folder ( keeping a safe copy on some other media i.e. USB stick) then open it as above using the menu File Open. Outlook appears to beconverting your attachment into some propreitary format. See if you can capture in in a .png or .jpg format and attach it in that form. If you use the Nabble version of the forum (http://gnucash.1415818.n4.nabble.com/template/NamlServlet.jtp?macro=login_page) you can upload files in the message editor from the "More" menu entry to avoid any email formatting problems. if this doesn't work come back to the forum David Cousens ----- David Cousens -- Sent from: http://gnucash.1415818.n4.nabble.com/GnuCash-User-f1415819.html _______________________________________________ gnucash-user mailing list gnucash-user@gnucash.org To update your subscription preferences or to unsubscribe: https://lists.gnucash.org/mailman/listinfo/gnucash-user If you are using Nabble or Gmane, please see https://wiki.gnucash.org/wiki/Mailing_Lists for more information. ----- Please remember to CC this list on all your replies.
