I was writing my PHd thesis and I had one month working on it on the same word file. Today while I was writting the last pagese my file where I was working was blocked due to the appearence of the colorful sppining circul. I couldnt writte so I restarted my mac. After its restart the phd file appeared again for a couple of min, the sppining circul appeared again as well and after 2-3 sec every eorf was concerted in number and my file was unreadable.

G'day and welcome to the forums.

I really hope you have a backup on an external drive as your hard drive may be failing. Hard to tell as you do not supply Mac model nor operating system details and nif you are using Word, Pages etc.
