Hi! I just uploaded a project id been working on where i had several sequences and programs and stuff. I opened up the project again after saving it last time i was messing with it, and it's all empty no samples sequences programs no nothing. I just thought i'd ask how to prevent this from happening again, should i buy an sdcard and save as a new name to have different versions of the same project?

If you're saving to your internal drive, this was inevitable. That's why I always advise people to save their projects on an external drive. Invest in an SD card or external flash drive.

Edit: Check your "Project Data" folder to see if you can recover your sequences from there. It might be hidden, so be sure to check your brower options to make sure "Hide project data folders" is unchecked.
