Can't find my old recipes

I took some time off from using BeerSmith 2 and when I opened it today, I do not see any of my own recipes.  Instead I see BS Archived recipes and Northern Brewer recipes among a few others.  Can you tell me where my old recipes went?  Thanks for your time.

Hi,
  The "worst case" recovery process for a corrupt file in BeerSmith 2 is as follows:
  - Rename your "Documents/BeerSmith2" directory to something else like "OldBeerSmith" which saves your data
  - Make sure you have the latest version of BeerSmith 2 installed from the main download page
  - Restart BeerSmith2 - which will create a new BeerSmith 2 directory with the sample recipes in it
  - You will likely have to enter your registration key again
  - Once you have BeerSmith running again, use the Open command to open your old Recipe.bsmx file
    that is now in your "OldBeerSmith" directory  and then copy/paste any recipes you need into
    your new "My Recipes" folder
  - You can do the same with Equipment.bsmx, Hops.bsmx, etc... if you have added items beyond
    those that came with BeerSmith 2
  - If you can't open one of the files (Recipe.bsmx for example), you can also try opening the numbered
    backups (Recipe1.bsmx, Recipe2.bsmx, etc...) - these contain older copies of the original.
  - Let me know if you have any problems - and please keep your "OldBeerSmith" directory around
    (the one you renamed earlier) as it will have all of your data in it!

Cheers,
Brad

So I'm having a similar problem. I had Beersmith2 running on my laptop(MBP) and my iMac. Both were pointing to a documents directory on my iCloud drive. Everything was working fine until I ungraded. Now both are still point to the same iCloud directory as it says in my bsdir.txt file on both systems

/Users/pat/Library/Mobile Documents/com~apple~CloudDocs/BeerSmith2/

But the laptop has a completely (old) set of recipes. The iMac has all the latest ones and many directories from BeerSmith and Northern Brewer. So what's going on?
