Can't open jamovi .omv file

Hi guys,

I am currently doing an analysis for my master thesis and the deadline is approaching so I'd be SO VERY thankful for timely answers!

I recently got a new laptop (Mac Book Air 10.15.7) and downloaded Jamovi (Version 1.2.27.0). Yesterday I entered all my data, which took the whole day, then run the analysis, saved the document, closed it and today I cannot open it anymore. My computer says that it can't find any programs to open it with even though Jamovi still works fine once I open it separately. I just cannot open an omv file after I've saved and closed it.

Do you have any idea why that happens?

I appreciate any help!

hi,

select the hamburger menu (☰) from the top left of jamovi, select open, browse, then browse to the file you want to open.

cheers

Thanks so much for your quick answer! Unfortunately that doesn't work. The file doesn't appear on my desktop while I search for it on Jamovi, its as if its invisible. If I click on its file name under "recent" Jamovi says: "Unable to open (Errno 2) No such file or directory" :weary:
