Sequence not saved

I created a project and spent 8 hours editing and saving often. My Mac did an update and had to restart, and Premier asked me if I wanted to save my project before it closed, I clicked save. When I reopened my project, there was nothing in the timeline. I searched a lot of forums to looked in the project panel, but there are only the clips I imported and no sequence clip. I have tried reopening and importing from the auto-saves, but for some reason, my timeline was not saved with the project or any of the auto-saves.

I did a test and dragged random clips over to the timeline and saved it as a new project and it worked fine.

What am I doing wrong? Do I need to save the timeline specifically or make sure that I'm in the timeline box when I click save?

Can you post a screenshot of the Project Panel in list view rather than icon view?

I was hoping that there might be a folder hiding the sequence, but it looks like you're out of luck.

Did you do a Finder search of all your drives for the project file or autosaves?

You may have opened a previous version.

I know it won't help now, but can you set your Mac up to only do updates when you choose to do so?

I did do a search and I checked every file. None of them have the sequence I created. I allowed the update on my Mac, and Premier quit, but the file was saved multiple times. Do you think the update had some effect on it?
