[QUOTE="chscag, post: 1761098, member: 46727"] I don't think Time Machine can save an open file (maybe it can) so I would think that the last time the file was saved is what it will save. However, if you choose "always make a backup" from Office preferences, then every time the file is accessed it will be backed up and saved. Just make sure you direct the backup saves to a place where you can find them. I have mine going to the "Documents" folder. This is what it looks like: "Backup of Father's Day.docx" Every time I edit the file, (Father's Day.docx) a new backup version of it will be saved over the top of the previous one. That is the only thing that works right with the autosave function in Office 2011. [/QUOTE]
