Lost invoices

I recently had hard drive issues on my MacBook Pro and had to restore the system to a backup file that was created on February 13 this year.   I have lost all my recent invoices up to March 17. How can I recover? I always backup the company file when I quit using. Any help is appreciated

Locate your last backup before the crash, double click the .dmg file to mount it, once mounted drag the company file from the open .dmg window to your documents folder, from QB use file>open company or the browse option from the no company open window, navigate to the file you just placed in the documents folder.
