[QUOTE="Raz0rEdge, post: 1916299, member: 110816"] The problem is your workflow, not the app. When you open TextEdit and a new document, without saving it you aren't guaranteed that it's going to be around the next time you open the app. So rather than "seasoning" the file before saving. Open a new document, save it and then continue to edit so that it will exist in some known location. You can always delete the file if it isn't needed. Not saving the file means that the untitled document has been created in a temporary location and in turn the document is meant to be temporary.. [/QUOTE]
