• The first time you launch the application, you may be asked to update or upgrade your document. Agree to the update and your document will be ready to work with the update.
• If you open the application and your data doesn't immediately appear, try going to the File menu, down to the Open Recent submenu, and clicking each document there until your data appears. If this doesn't cure all, don't panic just yet. There are several ways data can appear missing when it's really just hidden or in another document.
