Hi,

I don't use a Mac, so this is based on what I've read over the years on the 
list... 

You are on the right path, but not far enough along it.  


When the "can't find file" dialogue box appears, close it, then go File->Open 
and navigate to the folder with your data files in it.  look for 
<something>.gnucash  not any of the backups with the string of digits, nor the 
.log or .LCK files.  (<something> is what you originally called the datafile) 

HTH,
Maf.
