[QUOTE="cwa107, post: 815623, member: 24098"] Unfortunately, no - Time Machine has to be setup and configured in order to use its functionality (you will also need an external hard drive to store data to). Barring a backup, there is no way to revert to a prior revision of a document. The good news is, you've now joined the legions of users who have learned the hard way as to why backups are important. To put it another way, there are two types of users in this world, those who have lost data and those that will. Let this be your reason to go out and spend a few bucks on an external hard drive that is equal to or greater than the capacity of your internal one. Plug it in, turn on Time Machine and enjoy the peace of mind. [/QUOTE]
