This happened to me today on an insane puzzle and I just about lost it because I've had it happen before and know nothing can be done.
The one solution I have found is really time consuming and best done at the end when the piece(s) that has been lost is the only one left. I moved my whole puzzle so that the column missing the piece was up against the side where the piece was lost and the bottom row was at the bottom. Then I moved the whole column off beyond the "borders" of the screen. I moved it in tiny increments up until I was almost off screen with it, then I pushed one more column over and moved it slowly down. Eventually, I "caught" the missing piece with the almost complete puzzle.
This method can take forever though and almost isn't worth it unless the puzzle took you forever to almost finish in the first place. The lost pieces haven't totally disappeared though, they're just lost off to one side off screen.
