When I logged in tonight I tried to open the file only to see an unsaved book open.  I am not getting consistent error messages. I have tried deleting all related files and restoring from yesterday’s back ups but this does not work.  How can I get my accounts back please?

Are you trying to open the file by clicking on it?  I believe you
can't do that on a Mac, it always opens the file you last had open.
You have to use File > Open and browse to it.
