I have been using NNW for what seems like ever. I am on Mac OS 10.5.8 and have NNW 3.2. I have opened it some time in the past couple of weeks, but I don't remember exactly the last time. Tonight, I clicked the little "rss" icon in my Safari address field to add a blog to NNW.
NNW Opened and I could see all of my subscriptions as well as the new one. I chose where to put the new one. Then noticed that it hadn't updated all of my other subscriptions. So I clicked "Refresh All". And they all disappeared.
Ack!
Can I get them back? Where did they go? What did I do wrong??

| Are you using syncing? If so, if you log into Google Reader in your browser, are your subscriptions there?

| As far as I know I'm not syncing. I've never used Google Reader. I didn't think I had to.

You don't have to use syncing, no. But in figuring out the problem it's a good thing to know.
Fortunately, NetNewsWire automatically backs up your subcriptions list.
Here's what to do:
Quit NetNewsWire if it's running.
Go to ~/Library/Application Support/NetNewsWire/ and delete the Subscriptions.plist file.
Open the Backups/ folder, and you will see a list of your subscription files with backup dates.
Copy one (from before this happened to you) back up to the NetNewsWire/ folder, and rename it to Subscriptions.plist.
Launch NetNewsWire and your subscriptions should be recovered.

| Thanks. That worked. I also had a back up off live (via BackBlaze). But I got it going via your suggestion.
