Hi all,
I spent several hours editing my first image in Lightroom CC. Long story short, I had to restart my computer because I wanted to bring it into Photoshop, but PS would not open, so I downloaded new version of Photoshop.
Here is the problem: I re-opened Lightroom, and now I cannot find the edited version of my image. I went to the cloud and can't find it. I thought there would be a File-->Open Recent option but there is not. I see the original image I was working on without the edits when I go to the Home button. It has Edits highlighted, but this first image is the original. (see attached)
I understood that the Adobe Cloud automatically saved my edits, but I am unable to access.
Can anyone please help me in trying to find the last file I worked on in Lightroom?
Mac 10.13.6 (High Sierra)
Lightroom CC 3.3
Thanks in advance.

Update: I found this tutorial on how to save a file to my Mac https://helpx.adobe.com/lightroom-cc/how-to/share-albums-photos-lightroom-cc.html
That's great, but I'm still hoping to find the file I was editing in Lightroom before I had to Force Quit.
Thanks!

Update #2: Well good news. I realized that I was not connected to the cloud. I turned off my VPN and am now connected. Even though my original edits weren't saved, I now know why.
Won't make that mistake again!

It seems like the edits were not synced to the cloud yet when you force quitted Lightroom. I don't think there is anything you can do about that.
