Let me see if I can understand the problem.

When you open the Sequence Editor (SE) you can not find a particular sequence in the window that pops up when you click "File -> Open." However, if you double click on the sequence (Which sounds like it's on your desktop) the SE opens, and the sequence is available.

If I'm understanding the problem ...

When you click File -> Open there is a box called "Look in" with a drop down arrow. Use that to navigate to your desktop, and the sequence should be there. Consider saving that file to your LOR folder instead. Which one is that? The LOR folder is the one that shows up when you clicked "File -> Open."

I'm sorry, but I don't exactly know what the problem is. If the sequence is in your Sequences folder (in your LOR directory) then it should show up when you "File -> Open." If by double clicking the file it opens in the Sequence Editor, then nothing is wrong ... the file just doesn't seem to be saved in the correct place.

I don't understand "open the folder not in edit mode" at all. What are you trying to do here?

If you can open the file, and it can play ... then I really don't understand "still doen't see file in edit mode"

If your going to the Sequence folder and opening it, then we can rule out something wrong with your particular installation. (This means that the files are opening, and the install is good.)

It sounds as if what you think is the Sequences folder and what LOR thinks is the Sequence folder are not the same folder. You say LOR saves it, but then it's not in the sequence folder. Well, it has to be somewhere. At least, I think it does. I've never heard of LOR saving the file, and then it simply not being there. So far, every time, it's been some sort of operator error (or the computer making us think it was operator error, when really, it was the computers fault.)

After you have opened the Sequence Editor have your tried the File>Open Recent menu choice instead of just File>Open?
