Hi, I am using MAXQDA 2018 and I have twice had the problem that my documents are gone when I reopen the file. I am doing a large project with 26 documents, and I realised the last time that the disappearance might have been due to using cloud storage. I therefore started saving MAXQDA files to my desktop instead. However, the problem has reoccurred, and this time it is different. Whereas before, the files were completely gone, and I had to restore them from a backup file, this time, the codes still appear to be present, but without a document name (see attachment). The documents are still missing from the document list, and I cannot find them. When I click on a code in the 'coded segments' box to display the coded item, it is blank for images, but coded text is still visible. Then when I try to restore the documents by re-importing them from my back-up file, the codes I already have are duplicated, instead of replacing them, so I end up with double the amount of codes I should have. I need to know two things: 1. Are these two documents hiding somewhere inside MAXQDA and I can't find them? If so, how can I restore them? 2. If they are not in MAXQDA and I need to restore from a backup, how can I delete the codes that belonged to the orignal two documents (without doing it one by one)? Thank you.
