All you need to do is click through the error dialogue, locate your moved file, and open it (from the file menu). That should clear things up.

Michael,

As you are a Mac user, I should warn you that if you double-click a GnuCash file on the desktop, GnuCash will open the file you last saved - which may not be the file you double-clicked. On the Mac, you must start GnuCash and then use the File menu to open any file that isn’t the one you last used.
