Hey there Gigix7,


This link will show how to Open or close a document in Pages on Mac. While the actual answer is dependent upon where you saved the specific document which you're asking about, you can also open the Finder app on your Mac, then check under the 'Recents' section on the left-hand side.


If you still can't find it, we also recommend trying Spotlight Search near the top right of the screen by clicking on the magnifying glass that looks like a 'Q'.


Cheers.

Well, Pages app has no magnifier, right top of screen. An edit/3 dots/move to iCloud/plus sign/paint brush. All of which I have explored and tried. I did not save the document or attempt to, something I must have touched on tablet screen (iPad), sudden blank document. Left side column showing 2 pages, both blank. So strange.


tapping Find on menu above blank document brings up title of the document, showing zero words. Right or left arrow in that dialog box brings up a long box saying, “No occurrences of…then “quote marks showing content of the document. It has an OK button , which brings me back to zero words page with title of document at bottom in search box.
