Mach Five folder disappeared

Hi all. This may have been discussed before, but I can't find it anywhere.

I was going along, minding my own business with a DP8 file. Had 12 channels of MIDI input to one instance of M5-3. Things were fine. I stepped away, and the Mac Pro may have gone to sleep. When I returned, Mach 5 couldn't find the Universal Bank, or any of the others, like Telematic, etc. They did not appear in the devices, etc, columns. I opened another instance of M5 and the same thing occurred. As a matter of fact, the folder with all M5 sounds in it is no longer visible on my hard drive. I didn't throw it away, or press any buttons, or nuthin'. It's just gone. Did a preferences repair in Disk Utility, restarted, and nothing changed.

It was just there, and gone.

Help?

Spotlight only shows you likely choices.

Use Find in the Finder. It is somewhere. When it appears, do Get Info so you can see the path.

Perhaps it is in the user/Library and you don't have it showing.

Ha!

If you get to the San Diego area, four of my banjos including both of those long necks are on display at the Museum of Making Music through October.
